 | | Benveniste's key concept of discourse is expanded in volume 2, in a chapter entitled "Sémiologie de la langue," in which he shows how language, for him the principal semiological channel, consists of two distinct modes: the semiotic (peculiar to the sign) and the semantic (peculiar to discourse). | | | Benveniste's crucial distinctions between histoire and discours; objective and subjective utterance; and the use of, on the one hand, the first or second person and, on the other hand, the third person can be linked to Roman Jakobson 's functions of language, specifically to the referential versus the emotive functions. | | | Émile Benveniste (1902-76) was a disciple of Antoine Meillet and held the chair of comparative grammar at the Collège de France from 1937 until his death. |

| | Jacques Benveniste - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Benveniste’s experiments were "statistically ill-controlled", and the lab displayed unfamiliarity with the concept of sampling error. | | | Benveniste’s 1988 article gained such notoriety in large part because it hinted at a potential mechanism that could be used by proponents of homeopathy to explain how homeopathy might work. | | | Benveniste totally rejected the team's allegations of unfamiliarity with sampling error, and of the unreliability of his control values. |

| | Dr Jacques Benveniste: The Case of the Missing Energy - Candida International |
| | Benveniste's lack of commitment to the pharmaceutical companies and his implacable commitment to what he believes should be the French position in international science have frequently brought him into conflict with the international medical research establishment. | | | When Jacques Benveniste's reputation was "attacked" in early 1988, some of his friends and many who were not his friends, pointed out that he was, after all, no stranger to controversy and might himself be partially to blame for his own victimisation. | | | Benveniste puts his isolation partly down to the facts that he is French, and that he has not worked closely with a major pharmaceutical company. |

| | Benveniste became the bete noire of the French scientific establishment back in 1988, when a paper he had published in the science journal Nature was later rubbished by the then editor, Sir John Maddox, and a team that included a professional magician, James Randi. | | | Benveniste suggested that the specific effects of biologically active molecules such as adrenalin, nicotine and caffeine, and the immunological signatures of viruses and bacteria, can be recorded and digitised using a computer sound-card. | | | Jacques Benveniste was once considered to be one of France's most respected biologists, until he was cast adrift from the scientific mainstream. |

| | Mourning Becomes Arbitrary |
| | Benveniste hopes to clarify what he reads as an unfortunate elision in Saussure, but instead complicates the issue endlessly by bringing mourning into the discussion; he fails to understand (and fails to write a script that might control and contain) the explosive emotional and cultural content of mourning. | | | On a deeper level, Benveniste can be faulted for his use of mourning on the grounds that it short-circuits the argument that he makes didactically so many times: "It is clear that the argument is falsified by an unconscious and surreptitious recourse to a third term which was not included in the initial definition. | | | For mourning, as Benveniste seems not to understand, is a highly stylized ritual whose forms vary from culture to culture. |

| | The first and second persons singular (je, tu) are confined to the subjective mode that Benveniste calls "discourse" (discours) and contrast with the use of the third person (il), the non-person that characterizes "story" (histoire). | | | Benveniste shows (in "De la subjectivité dans le langage") that there is no concept of je to which all instances of je can refer. | | | Benveniste's crucial distinctions between histoire and discours; objective and subjective utterance; and the use of, on the one hand, the first or second person and, on the other hand, the third person can be linked to Roman Jakobson's functions of language, specifically to the referential versus the emotive functions. |

| | The Quack-Files: Jacques Benveniste, HomeoPathetic Number One |
| | Benveniste, understandably, reacted with great anger - not to the fact that an inquiry had been carried out, for he had been quite willing for this to be done - but to the way in which it had been conducted and to the implication that his team's honesty or scientific competence were questionable. | | | Benveniste is, as he would be the second to tell you (apparently I am the first), the world's leading scientific expert on the subject. | | | Benveniste's most recent finding is that you can tap into the memory of a glass of water, and transmit that information over telephone lines or over the Internet. |

| | Some theoretical considerations |
| | Assuming that the effect described in Benveniste's paper is real, the model described here may be experimentally tested against the hypothesis of residual molecular order of the water molecules, which has been proposed to explain the persistence of the antibody's action (see Michel Schiff, "Un Cas de Censure dans la Science", Albin Michel 1994). | | | If Benveniste's effect were due to molecular order, however, B would be unaffected and the basophils there would degranulate. | | | As far as the replicability of Benveniste's results is concerned, I can only recommend to examine the article by Hirst et al. |

| | Jacques Benveniste was arguably the most controversial scientist of the last 50 years. | | | At its height, "l’affaire Benveniste" involved some of the cream of the scientific establishment on both sides of the English Channel, but their treatment of the man sometimes smacked more of a Papal Inquisition than of sober scientific appraisal. | | | Benveniste’s sense of ethical scientific behaviour was outraged. |

| | But the 'Benveniste Affair' cast a long shadow over in vitro research in homeopathy; not only was the scientific scandal damaging, but the prospect of an in vitro method which could be reproduced in any suitably equipped laboratory was raised, only to be snatched away. | | | Meanwhile, Benveniste himself has moved on and is now interested mainly in what he calls Digital Biology: the recording and transmitting of specific biological signals. | | | Some of Benveniste's key collaborators have tacitly conceded that these results are indeed irreproducible, while insisting that related experiments do give valid and reproducible results. |

Benveniste como un intento de poner freno a la universalización del principio interactivo, complementando su alcance con el respeto a la lógica interna de los modelos formales de fundamentación estructural. | | | Benveniste distinguía también entre enunciación oral y enunciación escrita, recuperando para esta última la teoría tradicional de los distintos estilos, como recursos habituales para establecer enunciaciones diferentes de las del sujeto que realmente enuncia. |
