Gandrieau, Joseph. "Comprendre et saisir le concept de Littératie Physique : un défi majeur pour promouvoir l'activité physique durable ?" Electronic Thesis or Diss., Université de Lille (2022-....), 2023. https://pepite-depot.univ-lille.fr/ToutIDP/EDSESAM/2023/2023ULILA025.pdf.
The objective of this thesis is to explore the concept of Physical Literacy and its role in the process of engagement in physical activity.Descriptive analyses of the level of Physical Literacy, methodologies for constructing and validating measurement tools for the studied concept, and analyses of the association between Physical Literacy and physical activity have been carried out within the framework of this doctoral work.Our additional studies have allowed for the expansion of the studied populations, the analysis of the state of development of the concept in Europe, and the evaluation of the effects of Physical Literacy development strategies.Our main results complement recent literature on the definition and structure of the concept, as well as its association with physical activity. The internal and external empirical evidence from this work exposes a complex and multidimensional construct that is crucial for an active lifestyle and can be developed. The results highlight the importance of a holistic education in physical activity to promote physical activity, and the need to continue to examine this concept. This work also proposes valid measurement tools that would be interesting to integrate into intervention approaches.Professional reflections are particularly recommended for ensuring that the actions of physical activity professionals are anchored in the promising foundations of this concept for the promotion of sustainable physical activity
Ainseba, Tayeb. "Entre littérature et philosophie : l'Homme est-il un animal politique : physique de la misanthropie." Perpignan, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PERP1219.
How can one grasp, starting from the study of he theme of misanthropy -, what ceates truncation and / or continuity in the relations between literature and philosophy ? Where does one situate the threshold between these two disciplines ? When do both become one ? The interest of this research is to free misanthropy from the theatrical sphere in which it has somehow been immured, for the past years, by the tradition of the "Agrégation" in French Language and Literature. By concentrating on novels rather than on plays, one notices that misanthropy of the Cnémons, the Alcestes, etc. , is somewhat dangerous for the Polis given how these misanthropists dream of living out of the social game ; the active misanthropists of Huxley and Orwell are more active, diferently, since their political project consists of bringing Man back to the stage of baboon. Isn't true misanthropy that which annihilates, as a misologist, collective culture to prevent the development of all personal culture ?
Fontanel, Françoise. "La tare physique et la tare psychique dans la littérature grecque d'Homère à Aristophane." Rennes 2, 1999. http://www.theses.fr/1999REN20030.
This study is aiming at checking off all the cases of physical and mental taints in the greek literature of the first centuries, i. E. All forms of physical and mental handicaps affecting the intrinsic value of the human being. These forms mainly belong to two groups: on the one hand deformity and blindness, and on the other hand madness. From which a two-part inventory looking into nearly three centuries of literary history: epic, archaic poetry, tragedy of the vth century and ancient comedy. The theme is approached from a literary point of view rather than a historical one, by the study of the vocabulary selected by the authors, the dramatic-function of the taint in the scheme of works and the embodiment of the different forms of handicaps in great characters stemming from archaic mythology. That literary point of view is completed by the comparison between poetic fiction and the pathological reality of illness, by refering to the medical works of antiquity, mainly hippocratic treatises. Thus great recurrent subjects can be brought out: the loss of human dignity, affecting the core of human abilities such as standing and autonomous motion, the retrogression towards the monstrosity of the primitive period of the mankind through physical decay and the resurgence of beast in human being
Irimia, Gheorghe-Florin. "Descartes et l’imaginaire littéraire et scientifique baroque." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023UBFCH039.
This research work revolves around two complementary centers of interest. On the one hand, the aim is to shed light on the Cartesian way of considering the question of objectivity, and on the other hand, to show the anchoring of Cartesian thought in a broader cultural horizon, which is commonly, and perhaps also roughly, called "baroque", from the aesthetic studies of Heinrich Wölfflin and the generalization of the Wölfflinian concept of "baroque" to literature by Jean Rousset and, then, to the whole of the cultural productions of the end of the sixteenth century and the first half of the seventeenth century by Didier Souillet.By virtue of this research topic, I relate Baroque scholarly culture to several major themes in Cartesian physics and metaphysics: the critique of likeness; the sensible/material relation; the geometrical understanding of matter; the metaphysical understanding of the world as pure exteriority; the relation between understanding, imagination, and the senses; the euristic value of imagination; the multiple meanings of the concept of "nature"; and the free divine institution of the principles of nature.Similarly, I discuss how Baroque literature sometimes views reality as a dreamlike or theatrical representation - particularly in Calderón's Life is a Dream and Shakespeare's The Tempest - and I highlight how Descartes draws from the Baroque literary imagination the main themes of the first two Metaphysical Meditations.Third, I present the place of curiosity, admiration, and the "curious sciences" in Baroque scholarly culture, from the Baroque vogue for the marvellous to the wonder of the technical productions of the time and their ability to deceive the viewer, to show how these dominants of Baroque scholarly culture determine the evolution of Cartesian thought about nature, from Cartesian interest in optical illusion experiments to the critique of likeness and the mechanistic approach to nature

The ancient Greek world passed on to us the image of a civilization filled with beauty through its artistic works, this image being strengthened by the richness and quality of its literary productions. The quest for supreme beauty reached its peak during the classical period, and in this context where everything seems to tend towards this ideal, physical ugliness is not something we generally equate with Greek thought; a few ugly or deformed Greek characters of whom we can think, Thersite, Socrates or Hephæstus, are so isolated that they seem to be the exception rather than the rule. Thus, this image is clearly incorrect since sickness, deformity, and other kinds of ugliness were natural parts of their lives. This little investigated subject is full of interest to us. In our efforts to seize what the Greeks themselves failed to express, we covered every relevent aspect possible by using all the texts of the classical period, not leaving the iconography behind, which is indispensable for a study on aesthetics

Gagnon, Jean-Philippe. "Le sujet du dehors : paysages sémantiques, corps de la nature et physique de la parole chez Jacques Dupin et John Montague." Thesis, Nice, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015NICE2014/document.
In his Cahiers, Valéry reflects a transformation of the status of subjectivity : "Man is an animal locked outside of his cage. It stirs outside itself." Prefigured by the Romantics and Symbolists which witnessed the birth of poetic ideas at the junction of the materiality of the body, of the universe and of language, this new topology was carried by poets who followed him. Since the late fifties, Jacques Dupin and John Montague have explored this external subjectivity, expressing new relations between interiority, the body, the language and landscapes. Investigating the semantic landscapes, the body of nature and the physics of speech, this thesis elucidates their transitivity, by studying the role played by the fleshly experience in the redefinition of poetic subjectivity and Nature, submitted to process of externalization and internalization that disclose an embodiement of consciousness and a semiotic exteriority. While demonstrating the universality of this porosity, it compares unique ways of inhabiting the world, appreciated at the heart of the aesthetic formal issues inherent to the reevaluation of sensory experience. Generally, the densification of the verb and the semiotic initiative conferred to the sensitive qualities of languages informed by the physical modalities of speech are analyzed to underline the properties of a natural speech. To study poetry of incarnation as an experience of the being-in-the-world, phenomenology is relayed by poetics, semiotics and acroamatics, wich illustrate a similar decompartmentalization of subjectivity in the element of speech, and reveal a subject doomed to a wild utterance, in the same way as to the alterity of perceptions
Marzi, Eleonora. "Le double entre l’espace et le temps : une « constellation thématique » autour des théories d’Einstein." Thesis, Université Clermont Auvergne (2017-2020), 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017CLFAL011.
In 1916 Albert Einstein formulated the theory of relativity, a great XX century scientific revolution, which will have repercussions affecting all areas of human knowledge. The aim of our study is to draw a framework of the existing relations between European literature and the theory of relativity, about the interaction of their two languages and the exchange of their images. If science and literature interact to each other, they do so within an atmosphere, the spirit of the times. The two disciplines take their images and their themes from a common ground: they thus become the expression of an era and at the same time the source from which the era nourishes itself. The dialogue between science and literature is reflected in our methodology: the paradox of twins, which Einstein uses to explain spatio-temporal deformation, is transformed in the double theme from which a European corpus was selected. Then, we proceeded to an analysis on two levels, the one narratological and the other symbolic. For the first level, we have focused on space-time double relation, discovering how the two are interlaced and how space-time is not limited to assuming a decor function. For the second level of analysis we have borrowed certain images used by Einstein in his popularization texts, such as train and light, to build a critical grid that we have called the “Einsteinian constellation”. Thanks to this grid of symbols, which is superimposed on that of narratology, we can see that the elements evoked by Einstein transform into literature while retaining all their scientific value. From our analysis results a framework where scientific elements and fiction texts intertwine in the expression of the spirit of the time. Scientific relativity finds its counterpart in literary relativity

Ayache, Solange. "‘In-Yer-Head’ Theatre : Staging the Mind in Contemporary British Drama. Towards a Quantum Psychopoetics of the Stage." Thesis, Paris 4, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA040010.
This study asserts that the human mind has become the new frontier in contemporary British drama, and interrogates and assesses manifestations of this movement which stages uncharted regions of thought and the dark territories of traumatic mindscapes. Drawing on theories from psychoanalysis and cognitive science, and inspired by the paradigm shifts of quantum mechanics and its interrogations on the role and nature of consciousness, this new theatre moves from “in-yer-face” to “in-yer-head” and away from the sensibility of the “nasty nineties.” Plays by Crimp, Kane, Churchill, Cooper, Frayn, Stephens, Payne, Haddon and others deconstruct and reconstruct the character as thevirtual sum of all her possibilities. In these mental spaces, the subject’s speculative, diffracted and plural mode of existence redefines psychological realism and stage realism. Examining the modalities of a quantum “psychopoetics” around key concepts such as probability and uncertainty, I show how metaphors borrowed from quantum theory based on the double slit-experiment, the wave-particle duality, the wavefunction collapse, the observer effect, quantum decoherence, quantum entanglement, and the many-worlds interpretation are used to emphasise the intrinsic indeterminacy of our minds. They evoke a number of psychological defense mechanisms and other symptoms that constitute the subjective reality of disturbed minds affected by trauma, psychosis, stress or neurological disease. By exploring the nature of mind, the self, and reality, and the condition of women, these plays address philosophical questions about free will and choice in a world that has become more uncertain and unpredictable than ever
Dumont-Dayot, Isabelle. "Traduction et commentaire de huit discours de Dion Chrysostome (XXI « Sur la beauté », XXVIII et XXIX « Mélancomas I et II », LXVII « Sur l'opinion populaire », LXVIII « Sur l'opinion », LXX « Sur la philosophie », LXXI « Sur le philosophe », LXXII « Sur l'apparence physique »)." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SORUL062.
Dion de Pruse, dit Chrysostome (40 après J. C. - 120 après J. C.) est un personnage protéiforme, un rhéteur dont près de 80 discours sont parvenus jusqu’à nous. Si ses discours politiques ont déjà été traduits en français, de nombreux discours moraux ne le sont pas encore. Ma thèse consiste à traduire, annoter et commenter huit discours moraux, les discours XXI « Sur la beauté », XXVIII et XXIX, deux éloges de l’athlète Mélancomas, LXVII et LXVIII sur la δόξα, l’opinion populaire et l’opinion personnelle, LXX « Sur la philosophie », LXXI « Sur le philosophe »,et LXXII « Sur l’apparence physique ». Si ces discours ont des dates, des formes et des thèmes différents, ils présentent tous une réflexion sur l’apparence, soit sur la tenue vestimentaire, sur l’entretien du corps et sur les liens entre le corps et l’esprit, soit sur les idées reçues qui sont des illusions influençant l’esprit. Ils ont des enjeux philosophiques et moraux : Dion s’interroge sur le corps et plus largement sur la condition humaine. Il livre une réflexion sur la Beauté et décrit la « palette des émotions » avec laquelle les hommes doivent composer. Il s’interroge sur les préoccupations quotidiennes, souvent considérées comme superficielles et futiles. Enfin, il se demande si se fier aux apparences revient toujours à se laisser aveugler par des illusions. Cette thèse a donc pour projet de diffuser les idées de ces textes ainsi que de montrer leur intérêt littéraire et les échos qu’ils trouvent à notre époque. Si Dion est éloigné de nous dans le temps et dans l’espace, ses préoccupations sont proches des nôtres
Morenval, Alexandra. "Le Tout et l'infini dans le De rerum natura de Lucrèce." Thesis, Université Grenoble Alpes (ComUE), 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015GREAL011/document.
This study aims to demonstrate Lucretius'major role in the introduction of infinity in Rome and within the history of philosophy. Although he bases his argument on the writings of his Greek teacher, Epicurus, the poet offers a new, original, modern and fertile answer to the dialectic of the Whole and infinity when reconciling these two notions by means of his poem in Latin language. Under his stylus, infinity becomes more real, more tangible and obvious, vaster and more intense, more exciting and magnificent. The poetry is not only a charm. It contributes to the good command of the Epicurean infinity and to the promotion of this notion. The approach I adopted for this demonstration, although literary at the root, is interdisciplinary : the study tries to offer a synthetic view of the infinity of Lucretius, a poet, a philosopher and a scientist

The Khoi-Khoi, a southern African population belonging to the khoisan cultural group (like the "Bushmen") were among the peoples the more often described by the travelers going to east Indies by the cap of Good Hope. The Portuguese, at the end of the XVth century, were the first to meet them. Through calls and clashes, a picture was drawn that was transmitted to the other European nations. At the dawn of the XVIth century, the portrait was fixed, drawing on a "catalog" that borrowed its motifs to the register of orality. To the disgust that these "savages" inspired to travelers the feeling of their physical and moral queerness was soon added. A feeling nourished by rumors born among the Europeans in the dutch colony (founded in 1652) and by the increasingly degraded situation of the Africans. In Europe at the end of the XVIIth and especially at the end of the XVIIIth century, with the extinction of the Khoi-Khoi in the region of the cap and the silence of the travelers, the figure of the "Hottentot" laid itself open to many scholarly, literary and philosophical utilizations that made it a noble and monstrous savage at the same time. It was this intermediate human being that naturalists and anthropologists seized, during the XIXth century, in order to test their classificatory theories

Context: Exercise programmes can prevent falls in older community-dwellers. However, evidence that these programmes can also prevent injurious falls was poor.Objectives : Systematic review of evidence of the effect of exercise interventions on injurious fall prevention from randomised controlled trials (RCT).Evaluate the effectiveness of ‘Ossébo’, a multi-centre RCT assessing the effectiveness of a 2-year injurious fall prevention balance training programme.Methods:Systematic reviewThe definitions of injurious falls from included studies were classified into more homogeneous categories. This allowed the estimation of a pooled rate ratio for each injurious falls category based on random effects models. Ossébo trial706 women aged 75-85 years ; home-living with diminished functional capacities were included. The 2 groups were compared for rates of injurious falls with a frailty model. Other outcomes included physical functional capacities, and quality of life indicators. Results:Systematic review17 trials involving 4305 participants were included. Four categories were identified: all injurious falls, falls resulting in medical care, severe injurious falls, and falls resulting in fractures. Exercise had a significant preventive effect in all categories.OsséboThere were 305 injurious falls in the intervention group and 397 in the control group, for a HR of 0.81 (0.67 to 0.99). At 2 years, women in the intervention group had significantly better performances on all physical tests and a better perception of their overall physical function. Conclusion:Fall prevention exercise programmes are effective in preventing injurious falls, and are feasible for long-term, wide-spread dissemination

The comprehensive novelistic survey presented by À la recherche du temps perdu is worth a research to be taken literally and establishes the knowledgeable subject as a scholar-researcher against his object of knowledge. Proust makes of “knowledge” the condition of talent and engages his hero in an exploration that presents itself as a priority for being a quest for knowledge. The present essay follows in the wake of Epistemocritique, a discipline that studies the inscription of knowledge in the literary text in general, with a specific focus on knowledge related to science. Our aim is to bring forward the epistemic position that characterizes the narrator of À la recherche du temps perdu as he acquires various forms of knowledge in the course of his observations. The narrator’s cognitive path is examined with regard to the four main pillars of his quest, which we redefine in terms of paradigms: the paradigm of exploration, which defines an “epistemology of the observer”; the paradigm of communication, which defines an “epistemology of the social being”; the paradigm of Introspection which prepares for the elaboration of an “epistemology of the internal character”; and finally, the paradigm of vocation, which combines the answers to most of the questions that have marked the narrator’s cognitive path. This last paradigm presents itself as an “epistemology of creation”, an “epistemology of reality”, and an “epistemology of chance”. For, in spite of an approach that appears to be subject to cultural interventions, the quest by Proust’s main character appears as a thought of the unpredictable. Although strongly determined by the cognitive quest of the protagonist, it nevertheless remains irreducible to this sole quest. In conclusion, we emphasize the status reserved to science and to positive knowledge from the perspective of the discovery of vocation, but also in view of the elaboration of a theory of literary creation: does Proust consider these two areas of knowledge as irreconcilable, with one having an evident priority over the other, or, to the contrary, does he considers them as equal factors in knowledge and artistic creation?
Hébert, Sara. "José Antonio de Alzate y Ramírez : una empresa periodística “sabia” en el Nuevo Mundo." Thèse, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/1866/5307.
José Antonio de Alzate y Ramírez is known for being one of the first Mexican journalists, scientists, literary critics and insurgents. The first chapter of this thesis offers a concise presentation of the author’s life and work and an overall review of the studies that were made of his Diario literario de México (1768), Asuntos varios sobre ciencias y artes (1772-1773), Observaciones sobre la física, historia natural y artes útiles (1787-1788) and Gaceta de literatura de México (1788-1795), from the year 1831 until this day. This work shows that his four newspapers have been studied mainly within the historical context of the creation of the Mexican nation and it demonstrates that the patriotic or proto-national intentions that were attributed to him deserve to be reconsidered. This thesis demonstrates that Alzate chose to produce a particular type of journalism somewhat similar to the French Journal des Sçavans (1665-1683) and Journal de Physique (1771-1773) that would allow him to contribute personally to the progress of science. Up to this day, no important study has been made comparing the prestigious French journals and Alzate’s publications. We are taking a first step in this direction as we highlight how his project appears to have been directly inspired by the two French periodicals, comparing the goals their editors shared and the subjects they explored. It will also be shown that Alzate’s periodicals present the essential elements that define most of the learned journals (“journaux savants”) published in Europe during the eighteenth century, as defined by Jean-Pierre Vittu. Finally, this thesis illustrates how Alzate adapted the model of the “journal savant” to the particularities of the society of New Spain. It focuses on the subjects of censorship, criticism and the lack of financial or institutional support that the Mexican journalist had to deal with. It also clarifies Alzate’s scientific attitudes as an author by examining his objective of belonging to the universal Republic of Letters and the specific purposes that its members were trying to achieve. It also presents a new definition of Alzate’s global scientific vision and explores the sources of knowledge he considered to be valuable in order to accomplish his goals as a “savant”.
José Antonio de Alzate y Ramírez es reconocido hoy como uno de los primeros periodistas, científicos, críticos literarios y hasta “insurgentes” mexicanos. En primer lugar, ofrecemos una breve presentación de la vida y obra del autor y damos cuenta de la recepción general que tuvieron sus Diario literario de México (1768), Asuntos varios sobre ciencias y artes (1772-1773), Observaciones sobre la física, historia natural y artes útiles (1787-1788) y Gaceta de literatura de México (1788-1795), desde 1831 hasta nuestros días. Damos a entender, entre otras cosas, que la obra de nuestro personaje ha sido estudiada principalmente dentro del contexto histórico nacional mexicano y que las intenciones patrióticas que se le han prestado merecen ser matizadas. Por nuestra parte, preferimos analizar sus publicaciones e intenciones en relación con su sentimiento de pertenencia a la República de las Letras. En este sentido, en el segundo apartado de nuestra memoria, demostramos que Alzate eligió practicar un tipo de periodismo, inspirado principalmente en el Journal des Sçavans (1665-1683) y el Journal de Physique (1771-1773), que le permitiera participar personalmente en el progreso de la Ciencia. Hasta el momento, no se había hecho ningún trabajo comparativo entre las principales publicaciones sabias francesas y los papeles que produjo Alzate. Damos, pues, un primer paso en esta dirección y señalamos en qué manera se asemejan dichas publicaciones, sobre todo en cuanto a propósitos, contenido y modalidades discursivas. Mostramos, pues, que los papeles periódicos publicados por el novohispano presentan muchos de los elementos fundamentales que caracterizan, según Jean-Pierre Vittu, al “papel periódico sabio” europeo. Luego, ilustramos cómo dicho género de periodismo fue adaptado por Alzate a las particularidades de la sociedad colonial novohispana. Abordamos los temas de la censura, de la crítica y de la falta de recursos económicos que constituyeron los principales obstáculos que nuestro publicista enfrentó a lo largo de su carrera. Volvemos también a definir las actitudes científicas manifestadas por Alzate como productor de saber en función de su sentimiento de pertenencia a la República de las Letras y de los deberes que buscaron cumplir sus miembros. Redefinimos, pues, la visión científica global que adoptó y las fuentes de saber que consideró válidas.
