Based on the general introduction on to processes and patterns in aquatic ecosystems (UE COM 062), this course (lectures and practical exercises) aims (i) to let students apply knowledge from UE COM 062 to case studies and (ii) to present aquatic ecosystems from a more organismic perspective. How do aquatic organisms (plants and animals) adapt to their environment? How do they shape their environment (act as engineers)? How do they cope with environmental variations, and where are the limits of adaptation? Can we transfer adaptive strategies by organisms to urban and landscape planning by humans? Based on this information, we will introduce aspects of ecosystem management and restoration. _x000D_
Keywords: Organism, life-cycle strategies, adaptive traits, ecosystem management. _x000D_

From the expression of an industrial need or an open technological and/or scientific problem, the aim is to put the engineering student in a situation in order to propose responses to needs identified upstream. The Research and Innovation Project is carried out individually. It allows the student to compare their theoretical knowledge and their practical know-how to resolve a technical, technological and/or theoretical problem. During the project, the student will also have to mobilize his project management skills and his “engineer-researcher” approach. It is also about introducing each engineering student to the field of research and development by addressing the implementation of methodological tools, but also by confronting them with the presentation of research projects. A final point concerns the methodologies for deploying an IT application as well as the management of its patches.

BACHELOR PHILOSOPHY
French
“Civil society and Government” This course is taught during semesters 1 and 2, and starts from the analysis of the “civil society” concept: what about its mutations and its different conceptualizations within the classic political philosophy. The objective is to better understand the links between Social and Politics. The “civil society” faces a real resurgence of interest in modern literature: through this concept, one seeks for a fundamental place for collective action, freedom and politics, which could stand for an answer to the so-called “State crisis” but also for an opposition to the Market. Yet, the “civil society” concept is deeply ambiguous and has gone through major modifications from the end of the 18th century: firstly known as a “state of nature” and linked to the “political society”, the civil society will be re-defined as spontaneous and state-independent by very different schools of thoughts such as Scottish Enlightenment and Marxian philosophy. This prism will enable us to ask about liberalism, relationship between person and citizen, connection between social and politics, but also about the conditions for the civil society to be considered as a real political leading figure.

"""The teaching of grammar in the first year of the Bachelor’s degree aims to deepen and consolidate knowledge acquired in secondary school. In the first semester, the programme is divided into three main parts: – the structure of the single sentence and the types of sentences: assertive, negative, questioning and exclamative, – the passive voice, – The simple present tense and the present in BE + ING. In addition to revising the basic rules from various exercises, efforts will be made to reflect on the system which governs the observed facts and makes it possible to explain them. A very regular work, based on a brochure of """"Grammatical analysis"""" distributed in progress (nature and function of the components of the English phrase, courses & exercises), will also be requested from the students. This work will continue in L2 and upon entry into L3, the contents of the brochure will be taken for granted. The ""Grammatical Analysis"" brochure (1st and 2nd semesters) can be downloaded at any time from the course website (Celène platform of the University’s online courses). VERY IMPORTANT: the tutorial sessions do not have the support of a lecture course, it is essential that week after week, the students provide an important personal work, consisting in an active reading (leading for example to the writing of personal summary sheets) of the manual cited in bibliography.

American Civilisation
L1
Faculty of Literature and Languages
BACHELOR Language, Literature and Foreign Cultures SPECIALTY English
English
Although the Founding Fathers of the Constitution were eager to “form a more perfect Union” between the citizens of the individual states, defining American citizenship has always been a controversial issue in US social history. The “American Creed” guarantees that all “citizens of the United States” are entitled to liberty, equality and equal justice under law. The 14th Amendment to the US Constitution (1868) not only placed national citizenship above state citizenship but also established birthright as a bedrock principle of citizenship. And yet, various specific groups within the American population have been inferiorized, denigrated, excluded, and denied equal rights because of who they are and even though they are all US-born: Native Americans, African Americans, Mexican-Americans, women and LGBTQ+ Americans. In 1958, Chief Justice Warren reminded that “citizenship is man’s basic right for it is nothing less than the right to have rights. Remove this priceless possession and there remains a stateless person, disgraced and degraded in the eyes of his countrymen.” (Perez v. Brownell). Countless unauthorized immigrants have been treated as non-citizens even though they have favorably contributed to the American democratic experiment. The 14th Amendment even provides due process to all persons, including illegal immigrants. What have been the competing forces at stake since the late 19th century to determine who enters the United States and who is deported? The purpose of this survey course is to examine the various contexts in which American citizenship has been construed as an exclusive category and how it evolved from colonial times until the election of Donald J. Trump in November 2016. To what extent should national origin, race, class, gender, religion, sexual orientation be taken into account in the recognition of rights and protections? Can minority groups be arbitrarily deprived of their fundamental rights? Can groups of US citizens be “separate but equal”? Why is it still necessary to insist that “Black lives matter” fifty years after the Civil Rights Movement?

It is important to read texts of varying styles and periods regularly, in French and in English. It is also essential to master the grammar in both languages - and thus, to make an assessment of your possible weak points or gaps from the very beginning of the year to rectify it before your first tests.

"The contemporary world is saturated by narratives, in a classic and literary way, but also under more subtle forms: political speeches, advertising images, or social network profils. In the face of this profusion of verbal or graphic narratives, it is more important than ever to possess the abstract tools and the adapted vocabulary to adopt a critical posture, to understand their mechanisms and their effects, and to comment on them intelligently. The recent events (""Fake News"" and propaganda on social networks, conspiracy theories, etc.) show the real danger which consists in indulging in a naive approach of the narrative. From this perspective, the lecture will approach the fundamental concepts of the literary narrative and their analogues in the field of static image or in movement, and will analyze how they interact and interpenetrate. We shall wonder about the specificities of the narrative by approaching the big narrative theories which tried to report it. We shall explore the various temporal logics of organization of the narrative and their consequences on the sense of the text. We shall learn the importance of the choice of the voice and the narrative point of view of a literary or cinematic narrative. Through the study in tutorial classes of a selection of short stories and excerpts in English, as well as moving or fixed pictures, you will learn to recognize techniques approached in CM(LECTURE) and determine how they can contribute to the general sense of a work.

"After recalling the fundamental questions of enunciation linguistics and the definition of the enunciation by E.

Culioli. We will propose a strong tool of analysis which allows to question natural languages in their diversity and in their peculiarity to understand better the mechanisms of the construction of the sense on one hand; and the functioning of languages in touch with the language on the other hand. We will study for example: the concepts of location, marking, operations, notion and notional domain, the central role of the enunciating subject in the linguistic activity, the statement and its constitution, the enoncable, the situation of enunciation, the categorization, but also stability and deformability in languages.

British civilisation: Introduction to the "Long 19th century"

BACHELOR Language, Literature and Foreign Cultures SPECIALTY English
English
The ‘long 19th century’ concept, coined by British historian Eric Hobsbawn, aims to reflect the unity of the period from the French revolution of 1789 to the First World War, thus exceeding on both sides the strict chronological limits of the century. In the United Kingdom, this new period began a little earlier than elsewhere, because of modernity, with two major transformations: on the one hand the industrial revolution and the Enlightenment, and on the other hand the failure in America against the rebellious settlers. We will therefore examine these changes from the end of the 18th century, then the recompositions and uncertainties of the beginning of the following century, before examining in more detail the Victorian era (1837-1901) in its societal dimensions, economic, political and moral. We will conclude with a brief review of the ‘Irish Question’ and, finally, the march to war.

The course will alternate between theory and practice. Various exercises will be proposed (grammatical theme, reflection in context, semi-guided written expression, etc.). This course meets three objectives: - consolidate students’ grammatical skills; - encourage students to think about the system that governs the observed facts; - to encourage students to reinvest their knowledge in grammar through various works of written expression.

Anglophone literature: Romanticism
L2

BACHELOR Language, Literature and Foreign Cultures SPECIALTY English

Romanticism is a constant literary movement and sensitivities, a federator of European culture before fixed nationalisms, which nowadays have no more meaning. It is not a museum literature but a wave and a call that will challenge the aesthetic codes in Europe (and beyond) throughout the thirteenth century, and which will continue to give intensity and spasms to artistic expression until the beginning of the twentieth century. By preparing students to analyze a text to comment on it and to enlighten it with a mastered and convincing argument, this course also aims to make them understand that it is possibleto reinvent, sublimate, even deny, the real, but also effective subjective resistance through literature. In full light as well as in the subterranean shadows of increasingly violent internal conflicts, this is what unites pre-romantics, philosophers, eccentrics, artists, poets and transcendentalists: inventing nature, inventing freedom, inventing our reality.

Insularity is one of the sources, and one of the main drivers, of British thought. From it, a strong sense of singularity and even of election in the biblical sense of the word slowly developed in time. Ireland, with a somewhat different logic and smaller ambitions, followed a similar path. The insularity has led the two islands of the British archipelago to think also of themselves in the logic of insularism and over-insularity which we shall examine together, before seeing how this concept could also be deployed in imperial territories sometimes far removed from the island world.

"Make it new!" is the rallying cry of the Modernists who, with Ezra Pound, leader of the Vorticists, reject modes of expression and forms of the past to better create their own idiom. The increase of cities, the industrial development, the development of emerging cultures (advertising, street lighting, development of newspapers, pre-cinema, photography), the revolution of means of communication and the advent of mass production in western companies between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th are used as backdrop to this crisis of sense and representation. Described by historians as a real cultural cataclysm, Modernism is above all an epistemic revolution of which we will explore the most experimental aspects in the field of literature and visual arts according to a transatlantic perspective.

If, at first sight, it seems disorganized, even inconsistent, one will find that since the Second World War (with some anterior attempts) the States have displayed strategies of recomposition and organization by using the rules of public international law and the technique of ""intergovernmental organization"" to try to give sense and structure to this ""arrangement"" of the world. We will broadly approach this law as well as the basic principles which govern contemporary intergovernmental organizations.We will see the UNO, the European Union and the Council of Europe in greater detail. This course articulates around the following points: creation and evolution of the UNO from the analysis of its Charter and its main elements (in particular General Assembly, Security Council); reflections on the creation and the evolution of operations of peace preservation and on the role of the Organization regarding defense of human rights; conclusions around the reform of United Nations and in particular on the extension of the Security Council."

In the short chronological sequence of 1914-1945 we shall show the way the companies of Europe and America entered the "total war" and how they answered this unprecedented challenge. Without getting into detailed diplomatic questions and military operations, we shall be interested in the mobilization under all its forms, human, economic, ideological. We will study the way the change of scale which occurred during this period profoundly upset the mentalities and societies: destructive power on a considerable scale, subordination of societies to the war effort, ideological impregnation.

Since the end of the Cold War, international and national security issues changed significantly: the main threat for the collective security is no more the excess of state power but the weakness of some states. In Africa in particular, the collapse of states feeds intrastate armed conflicts which spread generally in the region, causing a destabilizing situation. The United Nations are seeking an appropriate answer. Since the Boutros Boutros Ghali’s Agenda for Peace, peacebuilding missions try to strengthen the capacity of the state (state building) and its legitimacy (nation-building). The aim of the course is to explore the changing paradigm on security issues and the evolution of the United Nations interventions.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare is an invitation into a pastoral world where fairies interfere with the lives of mortals, for the worse or the better, in a comedy that blends laughter and cruelty. It will carry you into Elizabethan England and enable you to plunge into its culture and literary references, from the Middle Ages and Antiquity: Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, Sir Thomas North’s translation of Plutarch’s Lives…, Arthur Golding’s translation of Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Seneca’s plays and Reginald Scot’s Discovery of Witchcraft. All these scholarly references are used by Shakespeare alongside English folklore to create a work of art that prompts amused spectators and readers to muse on the alchemy of love and jealousy, the poetics of night and day, the vagaries of fortune, the tension between order and chaos and the secrets of theatrical illusion. We shall also evoke the many adaptations that are now part of the history of the play.

What was the English language like 1,000 years ago? Old English (also termed Anglo-Saxon) is the name given to the Germanic language spoken in Britain from ca. 450 AD to ca. 1100 AD. It is therefore the ancestor of Present-Day English, although it has changed beyond recognition over the centuries. The main goal of this course is to provide students with the linguistic knowledge and the basics required to read short medieval texts. As the English language has changed so much since the early Middle Ages, Old English should be studied as a foreign language. We will thus cover the essentials of Old English pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while doing short translation exercises. Meanwhile, the course will also offer an overview of the history, culture, and literature of Anglo-Saxon England, from the arrival of the Angles and Saxons in the middle of the fifth century until the Battle of Hastings of 1066. The Anglo-Saxon period in English history has often been dismissed as part of the so-called "Dark Ages". Yet, as this course shows, a number of key events (such as the Christianization of Britain or the Viking invasions) and major historical figures (e.g. Saint Augustine, King Alfred or William the Conqueror) paved the way for the emergence of an ‘English’ cultural identity.

"A ""pure"" or ""photograph"" synchronic view of today’s English language can only be artificial: like all natural languages, English is constantly evolving. And evolution (diachronic) is made possible by variation (in synchrony). This is the perspective adopted in this course linking variation and change, linguistics and history (a language changes because it is made to function in a different kind of society, Dick Leith), and emphasizing the constant tension between innovation and conservation. Some of the key concepts for understanding linguistic evolution will be introduced, such as: reanalysis, grammaticalization, productivity, borrowing, semantic restriction, analogy ... The course is taught in English and will have three interdependent components: - A diachronic linguistics component that will cover the history of the English language from the Old English period (mid-5th century) until the contemporary era (mid-20th century). We will try to describe the main stages of an evolution that radically transforms the English language in this millennium. - An introduction to reading texts. Students will be given some linguistic keys (sentence structure, morphology, lexicon, phonetics/phonology ...) to decipher and translate short texts illustrating different periods. One or more palaeographic sessions (reading manuscripts) will be possible during the semester. - A cultural side. The topics and texts discussed will be an opportunity to explore the socio-historical and cultural context of the British Isles during the period considered, outside of which the change is not understood."

BACHELOR Language, Literature and Foreign Cultures SPECIALTY English

Frankenstein or Le Prométhée moderne, published in 1818, proposes, for the first time in the history of literature, the creation of a living being who does not need divine intervention. At the beginning of the 19th century, science invaded the social sphere, ignoring religious beliefs and imposing itself in all the force of its rationality. But this science without consciousness nourishes fears and fantasies from which the literature will be able to profit; and if the figure of the doctor is especially in the spotlight, one no longer counts the characters of mad scientists, heirs of the evil alchemists who, living on the margins of society, make little of its rules and laws. This course will allow to return to the traces of these sorcerer apprentices whose successors will radicalize in the literature of the post-war period against the background of nuclear threat, artificial intelligence or genetic manipulation. It will also allow us to reflect with Hawthorne, Poe, Shelley, Stevenson and many others, on the fragile frontier that separates the human from the machine.

The current uncertainties in Northern Ireland, fuelled by Brexit despite the peace process and the rise of Scottish nationalism, would be the most striking manifestations. It will be necessary to revisit these crossed histories, to show their political and religious foundations and to see how English public opinion has also evolved with regard to the question of the “Celtic margins”.

"Writing the American Sixties The 1960s are a pivotal period in American History, and not only because of the political and social crises which fixed the frontlines of all the main cultural battles which continue to this day. Beyond these well known upheavals, the profound questionings of all sides of the society which occurred during this decade, also bent the literary course of the country, opening the way to new literary modes of expression and to badly known national literary traditions. Several decades later, the authors continue to revisit the period, raising essential questions on the legitimacy of official History, on the duties and liberties of the author in the face of History, and on the modes of writing adapted to this new reality, where crises became standard. We shall study Libra de Don DeLillo (1988), a fictional - and metafictional – biography of the presumed murderer of president Kennedy. The novel wonders about the nature of historic causality and about the difficulties and the dangers connected to the fact of imposing a coherent narrative on the reality. The Electric Kool Aid Acid Test de Tom Wolfe (1971) is one of the founding texts of ""new journalism"", a literary movement which appeared in the sixties and rejected the notion of journalistic objectivity. The author is an actor of the historic event of which he shows and accepts completely his artist’s role, adopting fiction techniques to tell the life of the hippy community revolving around the famous novelist and the guru Ken Kesey. The Things They Carried, Tim O’ Brien (1990,)is more than a collection of semi-autobiographical short stories on the horrors of the Vietnam War: it is also a meditation on the role of fiction in the apprehension of a personal trauma. The literary object then becomes ""larger than life"" because more capable of testifying of a reality which exceeds the capacities of objective description. "

"The conception of literature is still often, and for too long, connected to the linearity of a verbal narrative, the model of which is the one of a text written or printed in black and white which takes place (and is discovered) by a list passing from beginning to end, through a series of events and episodes. However, the algorithm can be more unpredictable and the contract of reading very different. Whichever option is chosen in the 5th semester (Shakespeare in the preclassic times at the time of emblems and blazons of the Renaissance; the novel in crisis on the eve of modernist period when it lets science reinvent fiction, or even the contemporary scene with performance arts, this course can be chosen as a natural extension towards an ahistoric interrogation ("" Nothing is historical "", said W. Burroughs) on a cultural phenomenon which always existed. Reviewing and commenting on various artistic sensibilities where literature was not able to settle for words only, the course will allow the students to widen their knowledge to visit the margins of literary creation and understand the stakes which are tangible in any context. Objectives: The students will be invited to gradually define a personal research project, in the era or the English-speaking area of their choice, and in agreement with their colleagues and professor in a session during which they will present the purpose (scientific and personal) of the subject that they will deal with in the webdoc that they will put online at the end of the semester.

Conflict over the fundamental moral authority that guides American society has always existed throughout history. There have been sharp divisions between the Orthodox and the Progressives over values, over right and wrong standards, and over choices between status quo and progress. This course will explore the origins, development, and meanings of culture wars in the United States and their more immediate impact. In his seminal book on the culture wars (Culture Wars: The Struggle To Define America, 1991), James Davison Hunter traces the epistemology of the culture wars concept and its various implications in all fields of American life. He pays special attention to the role played by religion in these conflicts. Various examples include gun control, racial profiling, same-sex marriage, or the death penalty. Why do Americans wrestle with questions of morality and national identity? We will examine how culture wars manifest themselves and operate to undermine and/or enrich American democracy, starting from the premise that the breach in the separating wall between Church and State is partly responsible for the numerous institutional deadlocks (the Equal Rights Amendment, “bathroom laws”, the Equality Act) as well as a patchwork system of unequal laws across the country. Can Americans find common ground amid their stark cultural differences when it comes to inequality and second-class citizens? We will study the multitudinous experiences of American citizens who have remained on the margins of American society—from an intersectional perspective—by exploring key issues in feminist and queer theory from the 1960s to the election of Donald Trump. Students will engage critically with issues such as gender inequities, sexuality, families, LGBTQ+ issues, reproductive rights and white feminism. Hopefully, this course will help you think critically about questions of difference, discrimination and justice in the spheres of social and civic life and how the Constitution acts as a bulwark for the protection of fundamental rights.

Translatology is a discipline which allows an approach to questions of translation in a reasoned way. Choices of translation, good or bad, are then understandable in a rational way. We will study modulation and the crossovers during the semester. The first three weeks are dedicated to the acquisition of the concepts, and we will do exercises around source texts and target texts for the rest of the semester. Other concepts can be approached; the concepts of translatology of the 5th semester are necessary.

Neuroscience is a stakeholder in biological knowledge as well as immunology or endocrinology. Yet it has this particular feature of also providing biological knowledge of cognitive processes at work in the human mind: it is a biological science of the mind. Neuroscience thus brings indispensable material to answer long-raised philosophical questions such as: what is the relation between the mind and the body? "Where" is consciousness in the brain? How can it emerge from a heap of cells? Can on think without being aware of it? May a computer be conscious one day? What is a "representation"? What are the faculties into which the mind could be divided up? Could I transfer my consciousness to a computer? Can we know all about colors and their perception through neurobiology, or does subjective experience of colors bring additional knowledge? Are there two persons inhabiting the body of a "split-brain" person? What is "seen" exactly in a hallucination? This very lively field of philosophy exert a strong influence on the most proéminents actors of neuroscience: it stimulates their thinking and specify their most general questions. This course is dedicated to a presentation of the main problems and positions in this field.

The first part of this course deals with weathering, transport and surface deposits processes, and the influence of climate and anthropic activities on regolith formation. In a second part, basic notions of fluvial quantitative geomorphology and study methods (alluvial terraces, longitudinal profiles, dating methods, physical and numerical modelling) will be discussed. Then, coring techniques and device, sediment sampling and content analysis, as well as visual core description, methods for grain-size analyses, basic mineral and lithologic analyses, sedimentological and stratigraphical features of fluvial sandstones, spectrocolorimetric techniques, stereomicroscopic observations and sediment sampling in a river channel will be studied. Finally, this courses addresses erosion rates quantification in fluvial environments and controlling factors of fluvial dynamics and the feedbacks between river dynamics, tectonics and climate and their influence on mountain ranges evolution. A 1-day field trip in the Creuse valley and a 1-day field measurements (solid fluxes in the Loire river) illustrate the theoretical knowledge. Requirements: None, but notions in geology and geomorphology are welcome
