hottentot Explanation: * -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 minutes (2010-05-28 13:09:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- With a capital H. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 minutes (2010-05-28 13:12:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ...dans les utilisations philosophiques et/ou encyclopédiques, une nette polarisation de l'image : chez Rousseau, Voltaire, De Jaucourt, Raynal, Diderot, le Hottentot est à la fois " monstre " et " bon sauvage ". Une figure double, mais néanmoins cohérente à l'intérieur d'un certain dispositif idéologique, qui fait du Hottentot un être intermédiaire, sinon l'être liminal par excellence.

Reference: homme-limite? Reference information: Not a single ghit for "homme-limite", so could it be a neologism of the author's? |
