  Résumé Le présent article se propose d’explorer l’encyclopédie collaborative Wikipédia au prisme de deux aspects ayant particulièrement intéressé Kjersti Fløttum au fil de ses travaux : (i) la crise climatique, qui sera abordée à travers le choix d’un corpus échantillonné comprenant des articles encyclopédiques et leurs pages de discussion associées. Notre corpus de travail contient les deux versions francophone et norvégienne des pages choisies ; en ce sens, il s’agit d’un corpus comparable qui nous permettra de mettre au jour des différences significatives tant dans le traitement et la mise en texte des contenus, que dans la nature des discussions menées; (ii) la pluralité de voix, plus précisément sous l’optique de la représentation du discours autre (RDA) développée par J. Authier-Revuz (2020), qui nous permettra d’analyser la représentation de la parole d’autrui et la polyphonie (Ducrot 1984, Nølke 2017), abordée dans le cadre de l’analyse de la négation polémique dans les contextes de RDA, ce qui nous permettra d’analyser l’expression de la controverse. Abstract This article explores the collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia through the lens of two aspects that have particularly interested Kjersti Fløttum throughout her work: (i) the climate crisis, which will be examined through the analysis of a corpus of Wikipedia pages related to climate change as well as the relevant discussion pages. The corpus contains both French and Norwegian versions of the relevant pages; in this sense, it is a comparable corpus that allows us to shed light on differences both in the treatment and textualization of the contents, and in the nature of the discussions carried out; (ii) the plurality of voices, more specifically from the perspective developed by J. Authier-Revuz (2020) (la représentation du discours autre - RDA), which allows us to analyze the representation of the speech of others, and linguistic polyphony (Ducrot 1984, Nølke 2017), with a focus on polemic negation in contexts of RDA, which allows us to analyze the expression of controversy.

  Global environmental change has provoked changes in how humans experience and perceive their relationship to nature. Such conceptual changes can be observed through language use, and specifically lexical change. This paper investigates how such changes manifest through an analysis of how the terms ‘greenhouse gas’, ‘climate gas’, ‘carbon’, and ‘CO2’ are used in the Norwegian parliament in the time period 1999–2019. We observe a discursive specialization where different discursive dimensions are linked to the different expressions, corresponding to different framings of climate change, including technological, economic, and moral perspectives. Importantly, there is a shift over time where the discursive division of labor between the expressions is consolidated and new framings emerge. We show that a more refined language of GHG expressions is a discursive resource that contributes to making sense of the multiple ways that climate change impacts society.

  I dette kapitlet analyseres skeiv flerspråklighet i Fatimas Daas’ roman La petite dernière. Romanen skildrer en ung kvinnes søken etter å forene religiøs og sosial tilhørighet i forstaden med sin lesbiske identitet. Vekslingen mellom fransk, arabisk, engelsk og latin bidrar til romanens fremstilling av fortellerens transnasjonale og lesbiske identitet, i tillegg til at den skaper en særegen estetisk effekt som del av en litterær montasjeteknikk.

  Representations of gender in foreign language textbooks for secondary school in Norway For many students of foreign languages, the textbook represents their first meeting with the target language. In the best case, the textbook, like literature, can be both a window and a mirror, as stated by Bishop (1990): When lighting conditions are just right, however, a window can also be a mirror. Literature transforms human experience and reflects it back to us, and in that reflection we can see our own lives and experiences as part of the larger human experience. Reading, then, becomes a means of self-affirmation, and readers often seek their mirrors in books. While textbooks at their best may be a window and a mirror, they may also be an important site for the representation and reproduction of ideas about gender that may be stereotypical and cis- and heteronormative (Ranchon, 2017; Demirel, 2018). As a consequence it is interesting to investigate the representation of gender as well as to propose alternatives. This paper presents a study of the representation of gender in introductory textbooks in French, German, Italian and Spanish used in secondary school in Norway. First, we analyze the visual representation of gender in the textbooks quantitatively and qualitatively. Preliminary results show an equal distribution between men and women in the images used in the textbooks, while the qualitative analysis shows that there is reproduction of gender stereotypes. The representation of non-binary identity is close to non-existent. Second, we analyze references (or the absence thereof) to recent efforts towards a more inclusive language that are taking place in the four languages (écriture inclusive, lenguaje inclusivo, italiano inclusivo, Geschlechtergerechte Sprache). Finally, we argue for the necessity of including representations of gender that are non-binary or non-identifiable in order to act as window and mirror for students of foreign languages. We illustrate the argument with examples from our data, that may serve as examples of good practice for foreign language teaching. References Bishop, R. S. (1990).

  As environmental change accelerates and increasingly impacts more aspects of our lives, understanding how people make sense of these phenomena becomes ever more important. How is knowledge about nature represented and negotiated in order to allow for public debate and political action? This paper presents results from Changing Nature: A lexical and argumentative analysis of public debates on nature, a research project funded by the Research Council of Norway that examines the relationship between nature and language change in Norway in the time period 1998-2019. The analytical focus of the project is on the relationship between language change and conceptual change in the environmental domain and specifically of the contribution of neology to public debate (for an overview, see Andersen & Gjesdal, 2020; Gjesdal & Kristiansen, 2021). In order to investigate this topic, the project has developed a set of relevant digital corpora and data sets. This paper describes the collection and construction of these resources, based on methodologies developed previously by members of the research team (Andersen & Hofland, 2012; Losnegaard et al., 2013). The first data set is the Naturen corpus. Naturen is a popular science journal which was founded in 1877, and it is the oldest popular science journal in Norway. The second data source is a data set of NOU reports which has been compiled in the context of the Changing Nature project. The data set consists of all the NOUs from 1998-2017, 669 reports in total. The NOUs cover a range of issues that are deemed to be timely and topical by decision makers, as they are written by expert committees at the request of a ministry. Thus, they also discuss crucial issues related to nature and the environment in this period. Finally, we present a word list of environmental neologisms derived from the data sets. The paper will present the resources that have been developed in the project as well as a pilot study to demonstrate the interest of combining different data sets to examine the interaction of lexical change and language change in the environmental domain. We compare neologisms in the two corpora from the domains of climate change and biodiversity with a view of how they differ quantitatively and qualitatively (collocations, patterns of neology formation).
