    Le concept de vertu dans une perspective évolutive [Articol]
    (USARB, 2019) Foghel, Ecaterina; Coşciug, Angela
    The results of the scientific interest in the concept of virtue presents a vast theoretical panorama extended in time and space. In antiquity as well as in the Age of Enlightenment, the notion of virtue is at the center of the concerns of philosophers, writers and artists. Both proponents of experimental rationalism and apologists of revealed religion agree that virtue is the foundation of morality. But beyond this initial statement, long and fierce debates focus on the nature of virtue, on who practices it best and on the role of science and of the Church in the discernment of morality in general, and of its virtuous foundations in particular. This rich theoretical tradition continues, more or less intensively, during the following centuries, and one notes a renewed interest in the notion of virtue after the Second World War when there is a revival of the virtue ethics, in particular of Aristotelian inspiration. This article aims to highlight certain theoretical landmarks in the conceptual perception of virtue at different times, emphasizing the importance of the diachronic approach in this matter.

    Le concept de vertu pratique dans les romans de Madame de Genlis
    (USARB, 2017) Foghel, Ecaterina
    Lorsqu’on se penche sur le champ historiographique de la littérature et de l’éducation de la fin du XVIIIe début du XIXe siècles, l’œuvre de Mme de Genlis est significative et révélatrice à beaucoup d’égards. Une nette intention morale et un souci éducatif évident se dégagent de chacun de ses écrits. L’intérêt du présent travail consiste en ce qu’en visant un pan peu commenté de l’œuvre genlisienne, trois romans sentimentaux écrits dans la première décennie du XIXe siècle, on se propose d’en dégager des jugements concernant l’originalité des idées et des œuvres de Mme de Genlis par rapport au climat intellectuel dans lequel elles ont fait leur apparition. C'est dans le cadre de ces romans sentimentaux-éducatifs que Mme de Genlis a commencé la déclinaison et le modelage de son spécimen de vertu. La vertu dans la conception genlisienne est un sentiment de perfection qui apporte un grand contentement. Elle se manifeste dans un goût de la simplicité et un besoin de rapprochement de la nature. La vertu est un devoir universel, imposant des préceptes parfois austères et rigoureux qui ont leur source dans la religion.

    În cadrul lucrării, se ajunge la conturarea unui model de analiză conceptuală multilaterală, transdisciplinară, fapt ce permite depăşirea aproximaţiilor şi impreciziilor în descrierea conceptului fundamental de virtute. Acest model poate fi aplicat şi pentru analiza altor concepte abstracte, care ţin de sfera moral-spirituală sau psihocognitivă.

    Continuitatea și evoluția concepțiilor asupra virtuții [Articol]
    (USARB, 2020) Foghel, Ecaterina
    Starting from the premise that any human activity is to be anchored in a definite ethical framework, in which virtue is always among the defining concepts, the present article aims to follow at what point various virtue theories developed by scholars belonging to different epochs and areas of study, are ideologically close. The analysis of diverse virtue definitions, classifications and concrete examples become well-known from Aristotle to Alasdair MacIntyre, should discern certain general principles of moral rectitude and means of life goals achievement. The tradition of the Aristotelian ethics and of the Christian moral doctrine, the utilitarian approach of B. Franklin and the virtue of practices developed by MacIntyre, do not exhaustively treat the concept of virtue, that is susceptible to get new traits and avatars in the context of the modern cyberworld.

    Les exotismes dans les contes populaires roumains: perspectives traductologiques et didactiques [Articol]
    (USARB, 2024) Foghel, Ecaterina
    Identifying and interpreting exoticisms in translations of roumanian folktales into French language is an interesting lexical, phonetic, stylistic and culturological exercise. Translating the nouns of concepts belonging to a foreign worldview is not an easy task. But motivated preservation of eloquent elements of the source language, either as intact inlays or as lexical units assimilated into the target language, promotes the successful transposition not only of the message of the source text, but also of the spirit and emotion that accompany it in the original version. Studying them separately is a good opportunity to explore and penetrate the national specificity of the Romanian language in terms of expressiveness and translatability.

    La pertinence de la vertu dans la nouvelle Acte de probité de H. Bazin [Articol]
    (USARB, 2019) Foghel, Ecaterina; Coşciug, Angela
    As a novelist interested in morals, passions and authentic values, Hervé Bazin excels in the art of psychological portraits and social paintings of moral ideals. In his short story "Acte de probité ", the author challenges the traditional acceptances of the virtue of probity by basing his story on antithesis and paradox. In this article, we aim to analyze the constitutive elements of the conceptual field of probity, delimiting its dominant and generally accepted elements, fixed in the dictionary definitions, which constitute the conceptual core of this mental unity. On the other hand, we also distinguish the contextual attributes of this same unit which are only manifested in the studied novel, and which make up the peripheral strata of the conceptual sphere considered.

    A synthetic outlook on modern theories on concepts [Articol]
    (USARB, 2017) Foghel, Ecaterina
    Scientific interest towards concepts as basic mental structures reflecting the processes of human cognition of the world and the results of various human activities, has been gaining momentum these last years. The attempts to explain the ontology, the organization and the functional peculiarities of the concepts were extremely numerous and diverse. Reviewing the main theories on the origins of the concept from a linguistic, philosophical, psychological or culturological perspectives, is a necessary stage in constructing a solid theoretical basis for further more specialized reflections on the lexical concept, its structure and the principles of its functioning. Synthetizing statements and theories of scientists belonging to the American and the Russian scientific traditions, we try to present an integrated overview of the modern pluridisciplinary vision of the concept.

    Teoria frame-urilor şi perspectivele sale de aplicare în analiza conceptelor [Articol]
    (USARB, 2017) Foghel, Ecaterina; Coşciug, Angela, conducător şt.
    Dans cet article on se propose de présenter la théorie des frames, appelée aussi la sémantique des cadres, qui traite du rapport expression – contenu. Dans la multitude d’approches des concepts en tant que structures cognitives dans lesquelles sont reflétées les représentations des individus humains sur le monde qui les entoure, la théorie des frames, élaborée par le linguiste américain Charles Fillmore, se distingue par ce qu’elle propose un modèle propre de structuration des concepts, dans lequel le rôle principal revient au frame (cadre sémantique), un schéma mental qui exprime diverses relations qui peuvent éven-tuellement s’établir entre différent concepts. Le frame est un instrument cognitif structural qui contribue à la détermination des significations des glossèmes qui s’y associent et qui servent à la verbalisation des concepts. Selon Fillmore, on ne peut interpréter le sens d’un mot qu’en l’encadrant dans un schéma conventionnel de connaissances qui clarifient certains détails par rapport au mot en question. Un frame est donc un système de concepts interconnectés d’une façon qui permet la compréhension d’un concept seulement à condition que le système entier de concepts soit adéquatement compris. D’autre part, une fois qu’un concept faisant partie d’une structure pareille est introduit dans un contexte, tous les autres concepts deviennent interprétables.

    Tradition et originalité dans les discours sur la vertu à l’académie française [Articol]
    (USARB, 2022) Foghel, Ecaterina
    Tradiţia discursurilor solemne despre virtute, ţinute regulat la Academia franceză, oferă o posibilitate unică de a observa o varietate bogată de abordări şi reflecţii asupra acestui concept clar şi univoc la prima vedere, dar care apare atât de complex şi chiar ambiguu în interpretările diferitor academicieni. În prezentul articol ne propunem să urmărim din ce perspectivă şi sub ce aspect a apărut virtutea în unele dintre cuvântările tradiţionale pronunţate de la tribuna Academiei franceze în a doua jumătate a secolului XX şi la începutul secolului XXI, pentru a discerne trăsăturile semantice şi ipostazele contextuale ce dovedesc actualitatea şi funcţionalitatea virtuţii în istoria de idei din perioada contemporană la fel ca şi în epocile precedente.

    La vertu et l’anti-vertu dans la nouvelle « Légende Poldève » de Marcel Aymé [Articol]
    (USARB, 2019) Foghel, Ecaterina; Coşciug, Angela
    Traditional conceptions of virtue are often centered on traits of religious obedience, bigotry and charitable gestures. These characteristics are encouraged and are generally seen positively, being keenly opposed to all that diverges from this quite rigid moral model. In one of his fantasy stories―Légende Poldève, Marcel Aymé makes a parallel between two categorically contrary characters: one totally correct and irreproachable, and the other - a thorough scoundrel and an incorrigible sinner. The author creates a prototype of incarnated virtue, and in order to make it even more convincing, opposes to it an anti-virtue alternative model. Their antagonism that results in a paradoxical denouement, ridicules hypocritical conceptions of virtue and satires exaggerated demonstrations of it.

    Virtue literacy beyond the time [Articol]
    (USARB, 2020) Foghel, Ecaterina
    Among universal notions beyond the time, Virtue has been an important directive force in the development of human civilization. The idea of Virtue is located at the center of moral, philosophical, educational and religious discourses that marked the history of thought and determined the modern configuration of ethics. From Socrates and Aristotle to the French moralists, from Machiavelli to Elizabeth Anscombe and Alasdair McIntire, Virtue accumulated a rich spectrum of facets that constitute together the complex modern paradigm of this generic concept.
