L'objectif de la thèse est d'étudier le rapport entre «Juif» et «nation» dans le roman italien du XXe siècle à partir d'un événement historique précis: la déclaration Balfour de 1917. Celle-ci donnait aux Juifs le droit de créer un «foyer national Juif» en Palestine et d'y devenir progressivement l'ethnie majoritaire. La création d'un État ne se fera que trente ans plus tard. Une sorte de renoncement au principe de la déclaration Balfour ne se produira que dans les années 90, avec les accords d'Oslo. L'État d'Israël acceptera alors l'idée que dans le territoire de la Palestine mandataire puisse naître un État arabe-palestinien après la tentative avortée de 1948-49. Le chapitre d'ouverture introduit le thème de la relation entre le Juif et la nation italienne dans une perspective historique. La chapitre deux raconte les écrivains et les ouvrages consacrés à «l'intégration nationale» entre les années vingt et trente du XXe siècle. L'oeuvre centrale c'est «Jom Hakippurim» par Giuseppe Morpurgo (1924). Le chapitre trois se concentre sur la littérature populaire anti-juive et anti-sémite des années trente et quarante (l'ère fasciste). Les racines des romans anti-juifs sont les feuilletons du XIXe siècle, où le Juif est le caractère négatif par excellence. Le chapitre quatre analyse l'avant-garde littéraire juive italienne du XXe siècle, c'est-à-dire les écrivains Juifs consacrés à la crise de la subjectivité contemporaine: Adriano Grego, Giorgio Bassani, Giorgio Voghera, Antonio Debenedetti et Roberto Vigevani. Le chapitre cinq met l'accent sur la persécution des Juifs et sur les diverses formes romanesques entre les années quarante et quatre-vingt du XXe siècle. Le valeur littéraire des ces oeuvres c'est ne pas élevé, sauf que les cases de «La Storia» par Elsa Morante (1974) et «Se non ora, quando?» par Primo Levi (1982). Le chapitre six analyse la figure du Juif fasciste à travers quatre romans publiés dans les années soixante et quatre-vingt. Tous les personnages ne sont pas destinés a survivre à la «mort de la patrie» du Risorgimento italien. Le chapitre sept examine la figure du Juif errant à travers ses formes diverses (exotique, levantin, cosmopolite). Cette ligne est proche à le «Juif anomique», perce qu'elle joue sur le stéréotype par excellence: l'errance historique et ontologique du Juif pour des motifs religieux. Le chapitre huit se concentre sur la représentation d'Israël comme lieu de culte et espace politique. Cette ligne «chrétienne» n'a été pas visitée par des écrivains Juifs, qui n'ont montré pas des intérêt particulier pour l'histoire ancienne d'Israël, ni pour les événements biographiques de Jésus de Nazareth, ni, enfin, pour le nouvel État d'Israël. Le chapitre neuf analyse les romans de sujet Juif par Alberto Lecco et son réalisme tragique. Lecco s'interroge sur le problème de la conscience juive à travers les grands écrivains russes du XIXe siècle et la diaspora juive nord-américaine contemporaine. Les conclusions cherchent à fournir des réponses exhaustives aux différentes relations entre le Juif et la nation dans les romans italiens du XXe siècle. En l'absence d'une «nation italienne», l'imaginaire romanesque n'a pas proposé une «nationalisation parallèle» ou un «désir sioniste»: le Juif italien est toujours un Juif diasporique, «condamné» à son état de minorité nationale. Les «différences» historiques, religieuses, économiques et culturelles ont connu une difficile coexistence aux côtés du mythomoteur national. Cette condition explique pourquoi les historiens ont insisté sur le problème de l'intégration-assimilation-acculturation nationale des Juifs italiens, tandis que l'imaginaire romanesque l'a considéré comme un problème après tout d'une importance secondaire. / The aim of the thesis is to study the relationship between «Jew» and «nation» in the Italian novel of the twentieth century, departing from a specific historical event: the 1917 Balfour Declaration. This gave the Jews the right to create a «Jewish national home» in Palestine and to gradually become the majority ethnic group. The creation of a State will take thirty years later. A kind of surrender to the principle of the Balfour Declaration will happen in the 1990s through the Oslo agreements. The State of Israel accepts the very idea that in the territory of Mandatory Palestine a Palestinian-Arab state can be establish after the 1948-49 aborted attempt. The opening chapter introduces the theme of the relationship between the Jew and the Italian nation in a historical perspective. Chapter two tells the writers and books on «national integration» between 1920s and 1930s. The central novel is «Jom Hakippurim» by Giuseppe Morpurgo (1924). Chapter three focuses on popular anti-Jewish anti-Semite literature of the 1930s and 1940s (the Fascist age). The roots of anti-Jewish novels are the 19th century feuilletons, where the Jew is the negative character par excellence. Chapter four analyzes the the XXth century Italian Jewish literary avant-garde, that is to say the Jewish writers devoted to the crisis of contemporary subjectivity: Adriano Grego, Giorgio Bassani, Giorgio Voghera, Roberto Antonio and Debenedetti Vigevani. Chapter five focuses on the persecution of Jews and the various forms of novels between the 1940s and 1980s. The literary value is not high, except the cases of «La Storia» by Elsa Morante (1974) and «Se non ora, quando?» by Primo Levi (1982). Chapter six analyzes the figure of the fascist Jew through four novels published in the 1960s and 1980s. All the characters are not intended to survive to the «death of the homeland» of Italian Risorgimento. Chapter Seven considers the figure of the Wandering Jew through its various forms (exotic, Levantine, cosmopolitan). This kind is close to the «anomic Jew», because it deals with the stereotype par excellence: the historical and ontological wandering Jew for religious reasons. Chapter eight focuses on the representation of Israel as a place of worship and policy. The «Christian» genre has not been visited by Jewish writers, who have shown particular interest neither in ancient history of Israel, nor in the life events of Jesus of Nazareth, nor in the new state of Israel. Chapter Nine analyzes the Jewish novels by Alberto Lecco and its tragic realism. Lecco examines the problem of Jewish consciousness through the 19th century great Russian writers and the contemporary Jewish diaspora in North America. The conclusions try to provide comprehensive answers to the various relationships between the Jew and the nation in the XXth century Italian novels. In the absence of an «Italian nation», the novelist imaginary did not propose a «parallel nationalization» or a «Zionist desire»: the Italian Jew is always a Diaspora Jew, «condemned» to his legal status of National minority. The historical, religious, economic and cultural «differences» experienced a difficult coexistence alongside the national mythomoteur. This condition explains why historians have emphasized the problem of national integration, assimilation, acculturation National by Italian Jews, while the novelist imagination was considered a problem of secondary importance.

Nous traitons des écrits dans le roman flaubertien, en nous intéressant en particulier aux trois romans de Gustave Flaubert : Madame Bovary, L’Éducation sentimentale et Bouvard et Pécuchet. Cela nous conduit à examiner différents types d’écrits circulant dans ces œuvres. Ceux-ci sont très variés et peuvent aller de la lettre à l’affiche, en passant par les journaux, les dictionnaires, et la littérature bien sûr, tout autant de supports qu’il existe de fonctions et d’enjeux. Au XIXe siècle, l’écrit occupe une place croissante dans la société et dans les œuvres littéraires, notamment dans le roman réaliste balzacien où les billets mondains circulent en transmettant des codes sociaux. Mais les lettres et les œuvres y sont aussi introduites abondamment et peuvent être lues de manière polysémique mais toujours signifiante. Ces choix vont de pair avec le développement de l’écrit au XIXe, par le biais notamment des journaux et de l’avènement du roman-feuilleton. Les écrits peuvent d’abord être distingués selon leur visée utilitaire ou esthétique, ils sont très nombreux dans le roman flaubertien et revêtent de multiples fonctions comme celle consistant à mettre en relief ce qui est visuel, faisant naître une forme de théâtre par la graphie. Puis, ils peuvent aussi transmettre la voix officielle, comme lors de faits juridiques à valeur à la fois référentielle et romanesque. Leur statut est parfois même historique, surtout dans L’Éducation sentimentale où résonnent les événements révolutionnaires de 1848 qui ont marqué l’époque, mais cette polyphonie présente le plus souvent un enjeu métatextuel en transmettant la voix du romancier dans une mise en abyme ; donner à voir ou à lire l’écrit serait sans doute pour lui aussi un moyen de se représenter en tant qu’auteur ou peut-être aussi, à l’opposé, de se distinguer de tous les écrits utilitaires qui caractérisent cette nouvelle société démocratique. / We are dealing with the writings in Flaubert’s novels, especially in the three following novels : Madame Bovary, L’Éducation sentimentale and Bouvard et Pécuchet. There are different types of writings in those works ; indeed they are varied and they can be a letter, a poster, a newspaper or even a dictionary, they are as varied as the numerous functions and issues that exist. In the nineteenth century, writing had an increasing part in society and literary works, especially in the realist novels by Balzac in which social notes were spread passing social codes. But letters and works were also abundantly introduced and could be read in different but always significant ways. Those choices went hand in hand with the development of writings in the nineteenth century thanks to newspaper and the advent of serials. Writings can be first distinguished according to their useful or aesthetic goal ; they are numerous in Flaubert’s novels and have several functions as the one which underlines what’s visual, making appear a kind of play thanks to the written form. Then they can also spread the official voice as in legal facts that have both a fictional and reference value. Their status is even sometimes historical, mainly in L’Éducation sentimentale in which the 1848 revolutionary events resonate ; but this polyphonic narrative often shows what’s at stake, delivering the novelist’s voice in a mise en abyme ; seeing or reading what is written could also be a mean to introduce himself as an author, but also maybe, on the contrary, to distinguish himself from the useful writing that characterized that new democratic society.

Text in German / An drei Stellen im Römerbrief verweist Paulus auf die Vergangenheit Israels: auf Abraham in Röm 4,1–25, auf Abrahams Nachkommen, Mose und Pharao in Röm 9,6–18 und auf Elija in Röm 11,1–10. Gegenstand der Untersuchung ist die Bedeutung dieser Verweise auf die Vergangenheit Israels für die Argumentation des Römerbriefs. Nach der Analyse der rhetorischen Situation und der Einordnung der relevanten Stellen in die rhetorische Makrostruktur des Briefs werden alttestamentlicher Kontext und frühjüdische Rezeption der rezipierten Ereignisse untersucht. Auf diesem Hintergrund werden die drei Passagen detailliert betrachtet, indem der Argumentationsgang untersucht und die mögliche rhetorische Wirkung auf die Adressaten aus sechs unterschiedlichen Perspektiven analysiert wird: mit hoher Schriftkenntnis, mit geringer Schriftkenntnis, aus jüdischer, nichtjüdischer, christlicher und stadtrömischer Perspektive. Auf diese Weise können unterschiedliche Aspekte der leserseitigen Rezeption differenziert wahrgenommen werden, bevor sie zu einem Gesamtbild zusammengeführt werden. / New Testament

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / A presente tese aborda o tema do amor divino de forma muito pontual, tendo como ênfase o amor que se doa; seria, mais especificamente, o amor que vai até as últimas consequencias presente na entrega de Cristo. Seu objetivo é explicar este tema extremamente abstrato e, ao mesmo tempo, profundamente perceptível através dos olhos da fé. Para tanto, este trabalho foi distribuído em três partes (capítulos) essenciais para desenvolver uma tese em forma de exegese de novo testamento. Pretende-se, primeiramente, explicar como amor de Deus se fez presente em (1) momentos de dificuldade para os cristãos romanos do primeiro século (história), em segundo lugar, como a (2) pregação do apóstolo Paulo, ao falar de agápe, foi importante e fez sentido ao tratar de temas citados em sua epístola com os mesmos (exegese) e, por último, como desenvolveu-se a ideia de que Deus (3) se entrega por amor através dos modelos salvíficos (sistemática) para manter vivo o amor naqueles que colocaram fé, desde os primórdios, nesta palavra apostólica, bem como, na proposta de relacionar-se com Deus. Com base em três textos selecionados da carta aos Romanos, deseja-se clarear quem foram, como viveram e o que superaram os primeiros cristãos em termos de perseguição nesta época tão difícil, característica do aguerrido Império Romano. Por mais desafiadoras que foram estas dificuldades, ainda assim, Paulo deixa uma palavra de ânimo e sabedoria: ―não há nada maior que o amor de Deus por vocês e, ancorados neste amor, não existe tribulação, angústia, perigo ou dor que poderá derrotá-los. Vocês são mais que vencedores!‖ (Rm 8.31-39) É graças a este amor derramado no coração dos seres humanos que a pessoa cristã está capacitada e preenchida para amar sem limites, acepção, bloqueios, preconceito ou aversão (Rm 5.6-11). E quão importante foi este amor gerador de unidade para os cristãos que se reconheciam falhos, incapazes de cumprir a lei ou mesmo de justificarem-se diante de Deus (Rm 3.21-26). Por eles e pela manutenção da sua fé, os modelos de expiação, reconciliação e justificação foram desenvolvidos; na certeza de que Deus alcança e salva os seus, independente de qualquer pretensão humana. A certeza de que Deus esteve sempre ao seu lado sustentou a todos em amor e contribuiu para gerar o perdão incondicional em seus corações; esta é a mensagem bem como a conclusão da pesquisa sobre amor divino feita nesta tese. / The present dissertation deals with the subject of divine love in a very specific way, having as emphasis the love that gives of itself; more specifically, the love which goes to the ultimate consequences present in Christ's self-giving. Its objective is to explain this extremely abstract theme which is, at the same time, deeply perceptible through the eyes of faith. To do this, the paper was distributed in three essential parts to develop a dissertation in the form of an exegesis of the New Testament. First, it intends to explain how God's love was present in the moments of difficulty of the Roman Christians of the first century (history); in second place, how the preaching of the apostle Paul, in talking about agape, was important and made sense in dealing with the subjects quoted in several of his epistles (exegesis) and, last, how the idea that God gives himself up for love through salvific models (systematics) was developed in order to maintain the love alive in those who put their faith, since the origins, in his apostolic word, as well as, in the proposal of having a relationship with God. Based on three selected texts of the letter to the Romans, we wish to demonstrate who the first Christians were, how they lived and what they overcame in terms of persecution in those difficult times, characteristic of the warmongering Roman Empire. However challenging these difficulties were, even so, Paul left a word of encouragement and wisdom: ―there is nothing greater than God's love for you and, anchored in this love, there exists no tribulation, anguish, danger or pain that will be able to defeat you. You are more than winners!‖ (Rom. 8:31-39) It is thanks to the love that was poured into the human beings heart that the Christian person is enabled and filled to love without limits, preferences, barriers, prejudice or aversion (Rom. 5:6-11). And how important was this love, creator of unity for the Christians who recognized themselves as faulty, incompetent of carrying out the law or even of justifying themselves before God (Rom. 3:21-26). For them, and for the maintenance of their faith, the models of expiation, reconciliation and justification were developed; in the certainty that God reaches and saves his/her own, independently of any human claim. The certainty that God was always at their side supported all of them in love and contributed to produce unconditional pardon in their hearts; this is the final message, as well as the conclusion of the research done in this dissertation.

By quoting Deuteronomy 30:12–14 as the content of the message of the righteousness of faith over against Leviticus 18:5 and the righteousness of the law in Romans 10:5–8, Paul proclaims a promise fulfilled in accord with the original meaning of the text written by Moses in Deuteronomy. More precisely, Paul reads Deuteronomy 30:11–14 as an extension of the reality foretold in Deuteronomy 30:1–10, which points forward to the new covenant experience of faith-empowered obedience, or heart circumcision, which includes the internalization of the word of God—the eschatological torah—by the Spirit of God. What Paul has found in Deuteronomy 30:11–14 is a prophetic promise of righteousness which he declares fulfilled in the gospel of the Lord Jesus, the message of the righteousness of faith.
