Abstract:

Inspired by a postgraduate French studies conference (University of 
Nottingham, 10 September 2008), this volume explores linguistic form and 
content in relation to a variety of contexts, considering language alongside 
music, images, theatre, human experience of the world, and another 
language. Each essay asks what it is to understand language in a given 
context, and how, in spite of divergent expressive possibilities, a linguistic 
situation interacts with other contexts, renegotiating boundaries and 
redefining understanding. The book lies at the intersection of linguistics and 
hermeneutics, seeking to (a) contextualise philosophical and linguistic 
discussions of communication across a range of media and (b) illustrate their 
intimate relations, despite differing strategies or emphases.

Pierre-Alexis Mével is a Ph.D. student at the University of Nottingham, where 
he also completed an MA by research. His thesis lies at the crossroads of 
translation theory, sociolinguistics, and media studies, and concerns the 
subtitling into French of African-American Vernacular English.
Helen Tattam is a Ph.D. student working in the French Department at the 
University of Nottingham. Developing the research undertaken for her 
master's thesis (also at Nottingham), her thesis examines what is distinctive 
about the philosophy of Gabriel Marcel, and resituates him in relation to the 
French intellectual tradition.
