"... Les archéologues en province ne sont ni moins nombreux ni moins actifs que les numismates. Le mouvement a commencé, surtout en ce qui touche l'archéologie nationale, par la Normandie, et MM. de Gerville, de Caumont, Le Prévost en ont été les véritables promoteurs. Chacun, dans cette spécialité même, a pris une spécialité distincte, en s'attachant toujours à quelque province ou à quelque ville ; mais, par malheur et à force de particulariser, on est arrivé aux infiniment petits : après avoir fait plusieurs volumes sur un seul monument, on a fait des volumes sur un clocher, de gros articles sur de petites cloches, des mémoires sur des sonnettes de sacristie, témoins MM. Eloy Johanneau, Vergniaud Romagnesi et A. Dufaur de Pibrac. La faute, du reste, n'en est pas seulement aux érudits, mais bien aussi au comité des Arts de Paris, qui a encouragé les études microscopiques en leur attribuant une importance exagérée. Cette réserve faite, il est juste de reconnaître qu'il s'est produit d'excellentes choses, et comme preuve il suffit de jeter les yeux sur les travaux de M. F. de Vernheil à Nontron, l'abbé Texier à Clermont, Le Prévost à Évreux, Duval et Jourdain à Amiens, Mallet en Auvergne, Deville à Alençon, Voiliez à Beauvais, l'abbé Greppo à Belley, l'abbé Godard dans la Nièvre. Il y a là un ensemble d'études sérieuses, désintéressées, et qui méritent d'autant plus d'éloges qu'elles ont été poursuivies avec persévérance, sans le secours des bibliothèques et des grandes collections de la capitale, sans les encouragements du gouvernement, sans les fanfares de la critique..."

This study investigates the effects of negotiation of meaning instances emerging from task-based synchronous computer-mediated communication (SCMC) on second language (L2) vocabulary acquisition. Results based on the chat logs produced by 20 English as a Second Language (ESL) learners collaborating on an information gap task suggest the facilitative benefits of synchronous CMC tasks for the negotiated interaction between L2 learners. Despite the split nature of negotiated interaction in the SCMC environment, most of the L2 learners were able to go through the negotiation of meaning routines documented in the face-to-face literature to work out the meaning of unfamiliar vocabulary. Additionally, their online discussion of lexical problems encountered to a large extent promoted their comprehension and retention of the target vocabulary. These findings provide compelling evidence for the potential of SCMC as an interactive platform for L2 learners to communicate in meaningful contexts, receive feedback from peers and teacher, and improve their interlanguage.
