In-Depth Information
2) Among the most important criteria, we find (e.g.)
criteria of empirical
coverage
(of the referential domain of knowledge),
textual
and
semiotic criteria per
se
(relating to the types and genres of data to be collected) and
paratextual criteria
(relating to the formal identity of the data to be collected).
3) The elaboration of models of collection relies on a
metalanguage of
description*
of the domain of knowledge/expertise.
4) Models of collection were defined for the
ARA program*
in the context of
organizing and conducting research interviews (devoted to the research of a guest)
which could run to several hours of conversation. Up until 2009, the organization,
conduct and filming of these interviews was a priority field for the
ARA program*
,
which therefore was explicitly structured by a model of collection which manifested
itself, for the
field work producer*
(a role including the person or persons leading
the interview), in the form of: i)
procedures to be followed
; ii)
tools
for
collecting
and
managing the data
collected (including the legal documentation accompanying
an interview); iii) the
scriptforpreparing
the interview; iv) the
script forconducting
the interview; v) the
script for analyzing the interview
, serving as a direct input for
the
processing*
and actual
analysis*
of the corpus documenting a specific
interview.
Modelofdescription
1) A model of description is a hypothesis of the “best way” to describe a
concrete object. It is part of the
metalanguage of description*
of a domain of
knowledge/expertise.
2) A model of description is composed of a set of metalinguistic resources
notably including
conceptual terms
* which are organized into
schemas
* and
sequences
*.
3) In the context of the ASW-HSS project, several libraries of models of
description have been elaborated and tested. A library of models corresponds to a
domain of knowledge/expertise.
4) Besides libraries of models of description which are specific to the
domain of
knowledge*
(such as the
LHE Workshop*
), a
common library
of models of
description which
doesnotdepend
on the domain of knowledge, has been identified,
defined and realized. It may be used to analyze any audiovisual corpus. These
models of description guide
paratextual description*
of an audiovisual text, its
audiovisualdescription*
strictosensu
, and its
pragmaticdescription*
.
