(2.) I choose to use the word
actant rather than actor, which is more commonly deployed, because it does not carry the same anthropocentric connotations.
Geordie double
actAnt and Dechave revealed they considered ending their partnership over McPartlin's drink-driving conviction.
In my paper, I draw on this framework that recognizes that media is an
actant and apply it to illuminate how the relationship of agents, including the billboards and other non-humans, contribute to the in-story action and shape new possibilities and disrupt patterns of being, thinking and acting.
The study examines fictionality, emotionality, and dramatization in fiction and non-fiction, assesses presented discourse corpus data, and identifies the fictionalized reader as a fictional
actant created using discourse presentation.
Cette distance varie d'un
actant a un autre et illustre la maitrise de soi de l'artiste martial.
This marks a change of great contrast with the actancial model at school, where the child takes the role of an apprentice who acts according to adult instructions; in actancial terminology the apprentice child presents the "destinataire" function, the "

(40) The baby-iPad-encounter videos tend to deal with children who are slightly older than Lupton's newborns, but they do prompt the question of embodied parent-child relations and what happens when a third
actant, the mobile touch-screen device, is introduced to the ongoing process of interembodiment--what could be termed "mediated interembodiment." While less intense than the mother-child relationship described by Lupton, the concept of interembodiment can be modified here to designate the communicative circuit between parent, child, and mobile touch-screen device.
