Dean of French botany Francis Hallé (1938) has been promoting a utopian project since 2019: to return to Western Europe a portion of its primitive jungle in the form of a primary forest (70,000 hectares). The project is neither romantic nor lacking in utility. Science, in fact, has already pointed out its benefits. And so has philosophy, a discipli...
This volume offers a wide array of cutting-edge original research on the implementation of Foreign Language Pedagogy in translator and interpreter training, a still rather unexplored field of research in Translation Studies. It is divided in two distinct sections. The first section focuses on theoretical approaches to this topic. The chapters of th...
Translation and subtitle creation have been proven to enhance communicative skills in a foreign language (FL). Also, aligned parallel corpora have been previously used as a didactic tool in FL learning. However, the conjunction of these aspects is innovative as it has not been implemented in a teaching environment before to foster students’ compete...
Little attention has been paid to some aspects of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s intellectual activity compared with others.

The team is working on the development of good practices at university lev...
The relation between Linguistics and Poetics has often been a controversial issue in Poetic Studies. With the advent of Cognitive Linguistics and its open disposition to consider any kind of discourse as interesting enough samples of human thought — and human thought being discovered to be of a figurative nature — doors have been widely opened to p...
Seamus Heaney’s prose scripts have hardly drawn the critics’ attention. Nevertheless, his prose production is not only generous but also the result of his having thought long and deeply on the poetic germination. This paper deals with Seamus Heaney’s theories on poetry’s relation to sense of place. It examines both the development of his ideas from...
Este trabajo parte de los supuestos lingüístico-cognitivos de que la poesía es una muestra de pensamiento humano, y de que éste tiene naturaleza figurativa. Estudia el discurso poético desde una perspectiva semántico-cognitiva, reconociendo al lector como co-protagonista de la actividad literaria y asumiendo que la poesía nace de procesos de pensam...
