Description : Serge DOMI, Sociologue, explique le contexte de sa participation au colloque international sur Edouard Glissant. Membre du groupe WATABWI, il a toujours entretenu de bons rapports avec l'auteur qui encourageait toujours ledit groupe dans sa pratique culturelle basée sur le soufflement de la conque de lambi. Ce faisant, l'intervenant s'interroge sur les causes de la passion de Glissant à l'endroit de la conque et les relations qui existent entre la conque et les écrits de Glissant.

Extrait de : "L'impact des marges dans les capitales littéraires, artistiques, politiques" : journée d'étude, le 19 avril 2018. Université des Antilles
Description : Gérald DESERT, Doctorant à l'Université des Antilles, se propose de montrer à travers le dernier roman de Raphaël Confiant intitulé « L'épopée mexicaine de Romulus Bonnaventure » comment l'esthétique de la marge postule une certaine forme d'internationalisation de l'écriture. S'il est vrai que Raphaël Confiant est écrivain de la créolité, soit de la marge, il demeure que cet ouvrage, présente indubitablement des traits définitoires du Nouveau Roman Latino-américain dont les trois piliers s'articulent autour de la structure du récit, la dimension du mythe et l'exploration du langage. Rappelons que le stade de créolité n'est pas en rupture avec celui du Nouveau Roman de la Caraïbe ; il est continuité. Analyser le roman contemporain, écrit Jean Bessière, c'est se plonger au coeur des traditions romanesques occidentales et des traditions extérieures à l'Occident, là où se croisent le paradigmatique et le singulier. Cette étude entreprend de montrer comment l'esthétique de la marge, de la périphérie (Créolité-Nouveau Roman Caribée...) actualise une pensée transmoderne pluriverselle, soit un « universalisme diversel » qui remet en cause la notion de centre, par une posture de l'écrivain qui vise la redéfinition d'une identité qui passe par l'histoire, les mythes, le langage.

Extrait de : "Tracées de Jean Bernabé" : colloque international, du 25 au 27 octobre 2017. Université des Antilles
Description : Lors d'un colloque portant sur la submorphémique organisé à l'Université Toulouse Jean Jaurès en octobre 2011, Jean Bernabé a communiqué sur bl- dans les onomatopées créoles blip, blo, blogodo, etc. dont les sens renvoient à la notion de « rapidité » ou de « brutalité ». D'après lui, l'étude de submorphèmes tels que bl- en créole relève non pas de l'arbitraire du signe linguistique, mais de l'iconicité et de l'indexicalité, qui constituent des caractéristiques non saussuriennes du signe, justifiant ainsi une approche cognitive de la langue en général, et du créole en particulier. Quatre ans plus tard, Bernabé affirme notamment, dans « Approche cognitive du créole martiniquais », que la perspective cognitive remet partiellement en cause la conception saussurienne du signe linguistique, et que rien n'interdit, s'agissant des langues créoles, de considérer certains submorphèmes comme des prémorphèmes, et inversement. C'est cette voie intellectuellement novatrice qu'il a commencé à tracer pour le créole, savoir la jonction entre cognition et submorphémique, que Dennis Philps explore

Résumé : La mosaïque de «Virgile» a été découverte sur le site d’Hadrumète (l’actuelle Sousse en Tunisie), une cité portuaire au sud de Carthage. Réalisée par un artiste inconnu du début du IIIème siècle, elle se trouvait dans une riche maison romaine. La mosaïque représente un homme assis, portant la toge du citoyen romain, entouré de deux muses. On a identifié cet homme à Virgile car il tient dans sa main un livre sur lequel figure le vers 8 de l’Enéide : « Muse, rappelle-moi pour quelle cause, pour quelle offense à sa volonté. ». Virgile est en effet entouré de deux muses, Calliope et Melpomène, qui paraissent lui dicter son récit. Toutes les deux sont filles de Zeus et de Mnémosyne, la déesse de la mémoire, et chacune a ses propres attributs. Calliope, muse de la poésie épique, lit un manuscrit. Elle porte sans doute une couronne d’or qui est l’un de ses attributs tout comme le livre ouvert. Melpomène, muse de la tragédie, a un air grave. Elle porte des vêtements riches et tient un masque de tragédie.

Résumé : Les colonies américaines françaises sont très diverses, Dominique Rogers compare alors Saint Domingue, fleuron coloniale à la Guyane. Tant sur le plan politique que le poids économique, la Guyane est marginale rapportée à Saint Domingue. Seulement, la Guyane accueille en son sein les libres de Gorée, noirs n’ayant jamais été esclaves auparavant. Dans un contexte où la représentation de l’homme libre change en occident de par les idées des Lumières, l’expérience guyanaise intéresse vivement les élites françaises afin d’établir les conditions d’existence des libres de couleurs dans le système colonial remis en cause par la révolution.

(Internal Comments) Notes from the Report Arrived October 31, 1898 Dr. Arthur Harrison, SS G.H. Rock, Captain 673 landed 436 men // 438 embarked 191 women // 192 embarked 19 boys 19 girls 8 infants 9 births 4 deaths, one a baby born on board 54 marriages 37 served before in BG, 21 in other colonies * measles epidemic early in voyage until they crossed the Equator, 38 days in, almost daily there were heavy squalls with rain; misery of seasickness, vessel pitching and rolling heavily * got to sea July 14 - the very worst month of the whole year, having to face the full force of the southwest monsoon, Sujaria's would have been the same timing the coal of inferior quality and ran short, meaning water and cooked meals less for immigrants surgeon's journal: july 28: no 167 baijooporai, m, 20, was reported missing at 3 p.m. [cause of death in death list "lost over board" no. 178 lachman states that on 25th instant at sunset baijoo was in his berth suffering from seasickness; later on he saw him take his blanket, get up and go away... lachman states baijoo was a very quiet well-behaved man, shewing no signs of mental aberration, but was very seasick. no further information could be obtained regarding his disappearance. from the emigrants or crew. ... september 25: "No 696, Nobibux, m., 20 years, and No 351 Mohangu, m, 22 years, were caught about midnight by a sirdar named Rambocus committing sodomy. When brought up before the Captain and myself they both confessed their guilt. Nobibux stated that for the last ten years he had allowed men to commit acts of beastliness: he had no doubt induced Mohangu to do this criminal act. Nobibux was put in irons and Mohangu, after blistering his penis, was made to holystone [scrub the decks] from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily." [latitude 35.17 s. and longitude 22.10 e.] [nobibux handcuffed every night from sept 25 to landing on oct 31, as was a man who had jumped overboard and was rescued] criminal charges brought against two immigrants; in CO marginalia, discussion over the legality of the punishment and doubt expressed over whether there was any sodomy committed at all; indication there wasn't enough proof to prosecute: "the men should have been put in confinement and tried in British Guiana for an offense committed on the high seas on board a British vessel..."; fine the surgeon but should he be barred from re-employment? inspector general of police investigated; attorney general decided not to prosecute; IAG criticizes SS for punishing the two without fully and carefully enquiring into the case. violated Rule 165 relating to colonial emigration, which strictly prohibits harsh treatment of the people The contract with the surgeon superintendant enclosed shows that each was granted a pint of wine per day and stout. This surgeon was given 20 shillings per immigrant landed alive. for immigrants classified as invalids on embarking, if they died during voyage, he received a pro-rated amount, based on how long they lived; wife not allowed to go along. Arthur Harrison, SS, states on November 4, 1898: [on 25th Sept, when near the Cape of Good Hope, his compounder Abdul Wahed reported to him at 8 a.m. that he heard two men had committed sodomy during the night. he told the compounder to take the men to the hospital, where he would question them.] [witness, the sirdar Rambuccus, brought in with the two men. questioned in front of them, he said that he was on watch in between decks at midnight and "saw something unusual between these two men, they being under one blanket; he pulled off the blanket and saw them committing sodomy." he called the head sirdar at once. the prisoners denied it to the head sirdar but then later confessed. they were left in the charge of the hear sirdar for the rest of the night. captain also present at inquiry. while Rambuccus was giving this testimony, neither prisoner said anything.] [the head sirdar Salikram is then questioned. confirms being called as above. says he separated the men and "asked them why they were doing this wrong thing, that they at first denied it and afterwards they confessed they did it for pleasure."] [when questioned by SS, men at once confessed. Nabibux: "I have done it." Mohungu said same, "as far as I can remember. I cannot remember the words they used in confessing." Nabibux placed in irons fastened to a stanchion in the hospital. Mohangu placed in hospital and ordered to holystone from 6 a.m to 6 p.m. "I blistered the penis of Mohungu. I did so as a punishment as I thought he deserved it." did this right after enquiry concluded. the captain knew Harrison did this. "Mohungu was the man who committed the act on Nabibuccus. I blistered him as a preventitive, as he might have attempted the act again. I have known cases where the penis has been blistered as a preventitive treatment, in case of masturbation with boys."] [says he didn't see it as a crime committed against the laws of England, but "as a matter of discipline on board ship"; didn't examine their private parts for evidence] "Since this all occurred, it has come to my knowlegde that the head sirdar had threatend the two men to make them confess. Since I heard this, I have questioned them. Both denied the act and said Salikram had threatened to make them confess. My compounder's name is Abdul Wahed. I have heard from him since that the man Rambuccus who caught them had a spite against one of the men, owing to something that had occurred in the country Depot in India." ABDUL WAHED, THE CHIEF COMPOUNDER, STATES: [the inquiry occurred at about 8:30 p.m. on the 25th Sept.] "I heard Mohungu say he had put his penis in Nabibux' anus, and some days afterwards both men said to me that Rambux and Salikram had threatened to beat them throughout the voyage if they did not confess to having committed the sodomy." "Nabibux told me that he and Rambux had had a row in the Fizabad depot and he told me that Rambux had a spite against him." [the prisoners were under his charge in the hospital] [doesn't know what the depot quarrel was about. didn't ask. never noticed any ill feeling between Rambux and any of the men before this happened. never noticed Mohangu and Nabibux to be much in each other's company] RAMBUCCUS [an Ahir. says he knew Nabibuccus for a month in the Fyzabad depot, where he was a sirdar] "The men were under a platform sleeping. There were other coolies sleeping there too. The men were sleeping in their usual place... I noticed two men under one blanket. I have orders not to allow this, so I hauled the blanket off. Mohangu was on top of Nabibux who was lying on his back. Mahangu was lying on his stomach. I asked them what they were doing. They gave no reply. Mahangu came off. I did not see his private parts. His baba was loose. I did not notice the state of Nabibux' baba. He had it on, but I don't know whether the crupper of the baba was undone or not. I did not see his private parts. I did not see his anus. I did not see Mahungu's penis in Nabibux' anus, but from their position I suspected that they were committing sodomy... These two men always slept together during the voyage." SALIKRAM "They said Rambux hauled the blanket and shook them up while they were asleep. Rambuccus said they were committing sodomy but I don't think they were. They appeared to me just as if they had just been awakened. Their eyes seemed heavy with sleep." "I never knew either of these men before I met them onboard. Myself and Rambuccus do not agree. I never noticed Rambuccus and either of the two men have any quarrel. I never noticed Nabibux and Monungu keeping much company. I don't know whether these men were in the habit of sleeping alongside of one another. I never threatened these men to make them confess. I never heard the men confess they had done it. They did not confess before me." IN THE END: 50 pounds deducted from Harrison's gratuity for inflicting corporal punishment

Résumé : Bonamiosis is a parasitic disease (causative agent: Bonamia ostreae) affecting the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis, responsible for a drastic decline in the aquaculture production of this oyster species. Therefore a selective breeding program for resistance to bonamiosis has been undertaken since 1985 bu Ifremer, leading to the production of several selected oyster families. In the present study, a 6-month cohabitation challenge experiment was performed in order to transmit the disease from wild oysters (injected with the parasite) to two tested families of oysters originating from the selective breeding program. Mortalities were checked daily, and ventricular heart smears were performed on dying or moribund oysters to detect the level of infection to B. ostreae. The first infections occurred after 4 months of challenge in the tested oysters (Family 1 and Family 2). The cumulative mortalities after 5 monts were 58% for the wil oysters, 9% for Family 1 (20-month old at the beginning of the experiment) and 20% for Family 2 (8-month, old). The parasite could be detected in 66.8% of the dying wild oysters, 67.5% of the dying oysters of Family 1, 89% of the dying oysters of Family 2 and only 11% of the surviving oysters of Family 2. The mortality was significantly higher in Family 2 thant in Family 1 (x2= 20.87, p<0.001, d.f.) as well as the level of infection by the parasite found in heart smear (x2=24.34, p<0.001, 4 d.f.). This result demonstrates that prespawning oysters as yong as 1 year-old can become infected with the parasite and die from bonamiosis. This result is inconsistent with the commonly accepted critical age of 2 years-old for the disease development. The most probable cause of the dscrepancy in the development of bonamiosis between the 2 tested families is a difference in genetic background.

Description : Nadia CHONVILLE (doctorante en sociologie, Université des Antilles) s'intéresse aux sources du discours homophobe aux Antilles dans leur contexte socio-historique. L'objectif est d'identifier et de comprendre les causes de la prévalence et de la persistance d'un discours homophobe légitime dans la société antillaise. Cette homophobie latente et normative jouit d'une certaine impunité due à une forme de consensus social sur le rejet des personnes qui sont à la marge du modèle hétérosexuel et chrétien dominant. Derrière les chants, les blagues et les insultes se taisent des vies refoulées, cachées et parfois brisées, dont les plus jeunes sont les principales victimes. Après le Mariage pour Tous en 2013, beaucoup de personnes ont eu le sentiment d'une plus grande visibilité de la « communauté LGBT » en Martinique.

On en recense 11 espèces sur le territoire Guyanais, ainsi en 1819, un capitaine de navire transporte des plants de vanille guyanais à la réunion. Associé à la découverte de la pollinisation artificielle à cause de l'inexistence de pollinisateur naturel réunionnais, la production de vanille s'accroit. Récemment, il y a une tentative de se réapproprier une ressource guyanaise, de la voloriser, de créer une microfilière et un label. En effet, les vanilles guyanaises ont une biodiversité génétique recherchée par les cultivateurs en raison de l'autofécondation.

Résumé : Contract laborers were imported from China to Cuba in the nineteenth century to alleviate the severe labor shortage caused by the expansion of the sugar estates. Between 1847 and 1878, approximately 145,000 Chinese arrived in the island. As they were expected to work under conditions similar to slavery, the death rate was high. By 1899, the population was reduced to 14,863. The artist, Frederic Remington, well-known for his portrayal of the Old West, began his career at Harper's Weekly. On assignment as artist and correspondent in Cuba during the 1890s, he reported on conditions on the island, as well as the Spanish American War in 1898.
