Sommario/riassunto

La démocratie athénienne ne fut pas seulement affaire d’institutions politiques. Sa pérennité, depuis la fin de la période archaïque jusqu’au ier siècle avant notre ère, tient en grande partie à l’existence d’une vie communautaire particulièrement dense qui, entre la sphère de la famille et celle de la cité, participait à la construction du lien social. Qu’il s’agisse de subdivisions civiques (dèmes, phratries), de communautés sacerdotales (genê) ou d’associations cultuelles (thiases, orgéons, synodes, eranoi), c’est au sein de ces différents groupes que chaque citoyen prenait part à la vie démocratique. Structurées autour de pratiques cultuelles spécifiques, possédant des terres et des biens, désignant en leur sein des magistrats ou votant des lois et des décrets, toutes ces associations ne constituaient pas pour autant des entités



fermées sur elles-mêmes. Leur étude croisée fournit à ce titre un point d’observation à partir duquel le fonctionnement de la société civique athénienne peut être appréhendé dans son ensemble. À cette aune, la cité apparaît comme un faisceau d’entités composites, un ensemble de réseaux de multiples dimensions, loin de l’image stéréotypée de la cité une et indivisible promue par l’idéologie civique. Peut-être est-ce précisément là que réside la grande originalité de l’Athènes classique : ces communautés au fonctionnement emboîté forment la trame d’un espace public pluridimensionnel. Largement inspirée de la démarche de la micro-histoire, cette étude propose ultimement une hypothèse sur la nature même du politique athénien.

Sommario/riassunto

The Grammar of the English Tense System forms the first volume of a four-volume set, The Grammar of the English Verb Phrase. The other volumes, to appear over the next few years, will deal with mood and modality, aspect and voice. The book aims to provide a grammar of tense which can be used both as an advanced reference grammar (for example by MA-level or postgraduate students of English or linguistics) and as a scientific study which can act as a basis for and stimulus to further research. It provides not only a wealth of data but also a unique framework for the study of the English tense system, which achieves great predictive and explanatory power on the basis of a limited number of relatively simple rules. The framework provided allows for an analysis of the semantics of individual tenses which reflects the role of tenses not only in locating situations in time relative to speech time but also in relating situations in time relative to one another to form temporally coherent discourse. Attention is paid to the relations between tenses. On the one hand, we can identify sets of tenses linked to particular temporal areas such as the past or the future. These sets of tenses provide for the expression of a system of temporal relations in a stretch of discourse in which all the situations are located within the same temporal area. On the other hand, there are many contexts in which speakers might in theory choose between two or more tenses to locate a situation (e.g., when we choose between the past tense and the present perfect to locate a situation before speech time), and the book examines the difference that a choice of one or the other tense may make within a discourse context. The book moves from a detailed exploration of the meaning and use of individual tenses to a thorough analysis of the way in which tenses can be seen to function together as sets, and finally to a detailed examination of tenses in, and tenses interacting with, temporal adverbials. Original data is used frequently throughout the book to illustrate the theory discussed.

Sommario/riassunto

How far have universities in post-Communist states adopted the practices and habits of their branded and consumer-oriented equivalents in the English-speaking world? While not assuming that university education in those states reflects in any mechanistic way the



regulated, business-led system long established in places like the US, and now being dramatically realized in countries like Britain, this edited collection identifies some marked shifts in the direction of what might best be described as ‘neoliberalisation’, examining its particularities in local situations where establishment ideologies were, until the early 1990s, deeply alien to all kinds of commercially driven entities. Many of the authors are concerned not only with the linked issues of commercialism, instrumentalism, bureaucracy, and managerialism, framed locally and nationally, but also with the meaning and purpose of universities outside or against their status as efficient gatherers of income. The collection makes specific reference to Lithuania, Hungary, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Georgia, and Russia, and comprises theoretical as well as empirical studies of diverse but connected subjects, including the marketization of the academy, regional reactions to globalization as expressed in the representational rhetoric of specific curricula, the role and place of civic education, comparisons between educational settings, pedagogies for a critical and ethical consciousness, corporate and state demands and their effects on academic freedom, and the positive potential of new communication technologies. In all these cases, the system of neoliberalism, or rather an uneven process of neoliberalisation, forms a backdrop to the particular issues discussed.
