    Notes For complete author names, titles, and publication data for works cited here in short form, see the Works Cited list at the back of the book. Introduction 1. It is problematic to use the term “emperor” to describe the monarch throughout most of Japanese history. As Joan R. Piggott reminds us in The Emergence of Japanese Kingship, “The term empire is strongly associated with a martial political formation founded on conquest” (8). For most of Japanese history, Japanese monarchs did not preside over empires. The monarchs of Imperial Japan (1890–1945)did rule over an empire that came to include numerous overseas possessions, however. In the case of Hirohito (r. 1926–89), he ascended to the throne as the sovereign of an empire, and thus the term “emperor” is an appropriate title for him for the period from 1926 to 1945. Strictly speaking, the term “emperor” does not describe Japan’s monarch since 1945, for Japan no longer has an empire and the monarch does not even remain sovereign. In the end, however, I decided to use the term “emperor” (as well as terms such as “monarch”) for the postwar period in part because it seemed confusing to switch back and forth between “emperor” for the prewar period and, say, “king” for the postwar period, and also because it served to highlight one of the most important transwar continuities regarding the Japanese throne: Hirohito, who ascended to the throne with the mindset of a sovereign emperor, remained on the throne even as the Japanese empire collapsed and the politico-legal system defining his position underwent sweeping reform.

  • Le Traitement Médiatique Des Sports D'hiver : Approche Comparée France/Pays Scandinaves
    ÉCOLE DU JOURNALISME Mastère 2 Journalisme Sportif *** LE TRAITEMENT MÉDIATIQUE DES SPORTS D’HIVER : APPROCHE COMPARÉE FRANCE/PAYS SCANDINAVES Mémoire présenté et soutenu par M. Florian Burgaud *** Année universitaire 2019/2020 REMERCIEMENTS Je remercie chaleureusement Christophe Colette qui m’a aiguillé pendant mes recherches. Je remercie aussi toutes les personnes qui m’ont aidé, de près ou de loin, pour la rédaction de ce mémoire. Un immense merci aux journalistes et aux autres personnes qui ont accepté de répondre à mes questions, à mes interrogations sur le traitement médiatique des sports d’hiver en France et dans les pays scandinaves. Un grand merci, donc, à tous : Nils Christian Mangelrød, Marcus Lindqvist, Viljam Brodahl, Jean-Pierre Bidet, Marc Ventouillac, Franck Lacroix, Sverker Sörlin et Nicolas Mayer. Merci aussi à Arne Idland pour son aide sur le Blink Festival. Merci à tous pour la confiance que vous m’avez accordée. Merci, enfin, à l’École Du Journalisme de Nice de m’avoir permis d’écrire ce mémoire sur un sujet s’insérant parfaitement dans mon projet professionnel. 1 RÉSUMÉ Lors de chaque édition des Jeux olympiques d’hiver, les audiences mesurées par Médiamétrie sont incroyablement élevées – jusqu’à 16 millions de personnes en 1992 pour le programme court féminin de patinage artistique. En partant du constat que les Français aiment les sports d’hiver mais qu’ils sont quasiment invisibles dans le paysage médiatique, à part le biathlon depuis quelques années, nous avons réalisé une approche comparée avec le traitement que les médias scandinaves font des sports d’hiver. Là-bas, les fondeurs et les hockeyeurs, notamment, sont de véritables stars traquées par les journalistes et les sports blancs font la une des journaux toute l’année.
