Cette thèse analyse la représentation de sujets désirants féminins dans cinq œuvres contemporaines. La question est abordée dans une perspective féministe et puise des outils théoriques tant du côté de la psychanalyse (Freud, Lacan) que de ses critiques (Deleuze et Guattari, Cixous, Irigaray). Nous faisons appel à la rhétorique pour l’analyse de figures du discours, et examinons comment les sujets et objets grammaticaux correspondent à une répartition des rôles entre sujets désirants et objets désirés. À la suite du chapitre explicitant nos approches théoriques se trouvent cinq chapitres s’appliquant à l’analyse d’une œuvre littéraire. Notre étude sur Folle (2004) de Nelly Arcan explore la posture masochiste construite par la narratrice, grâce à laquelle elle parvient à se représenter simultanément comme l’objet passif du désir masculin et comme un sujet désirant manipulateur. La vie sexuelle de Catherine M. (2001) de Catherine Millet nous a intéressée par l’investissement d’une posture de soumission au désir masculin qui demeure agente et investie de maîtrise. L’analyse de Se perdre (2001) d’Annie Ernaux étudie la configuration du désir ambiguë causée par la passion, où la narratrice se montre à la fois soumise et dominante par rapport à l’amant. Le chapitre sur Baroque d’aube (1995) de Nicole Brossard examine la construction de sujets lesbiens qui ne posent pas leur attirance en tant que désir du même, mais qui encouragent plutôt le déploiement d’une identité féminine plurielle. Enfin, notre étude de La nouvelle pornographie (2000) de Marie Nimier s’attache à la réécriture parodique de la pornographie, démontrant de quelles façons celle-ci permet à la narratrice de critiquer un discours masculin sur le désir et d’en proposer de nouvelles formulations. Au fil de ces analyses, nous interrogeons, à travers la question du désir, les configurations contemporaines du genre sexuel et de la sexualité.

Doctor of Philosophy / Leadbeater was a man who made the most startling claims for himself, and made them in a very matter-of-fact way.[4] He declared that he had penetrated the depths of the atom by his psychic powers, discovered the ultimate unit of matter whilst sitting in a park on the Finchley Road in London, and had psychically extracted individual atoms of various elements from the showcases in the Dresden Museum whilst he reclined several miles away. He also claimed to have sent sea spirits to dig out atoms of another element from the mines of Sabaranganuwa in Ceylon while he lay in his bed in Madras in India.[5] He claimed to have explored most of the planets in the Solar System, while his body remained on earth, and described their climates and inhabitants in some detail.[6] He claimed to be in regular communication with the Powers which govern the earth from the Inner Planes, the Masters or Mahatmas, the Supermen who constitute the Occult Hierachy of this planet. And, so he said, he conducted parties of pupils to the secret places in Tibet where these same Masters resided, while the bodies of both the pupils and their guide slept securely in their beds.[7](Excerpt from Introduction pp.3-4)

Analyse populärer Musik dringt eher selten in Bereiche vor, die als genuin musiktheoretisch betrachtet werden können. Was als Defizit jener Analysen gelten könnte, ist jedoch, positiv betrachtet, durch die gründliche Betrachtung etwa popgeschichtlicher, soziokultureller oder technischer Aspekte zu erklären, die für musiktheoretische Ansätze kaum noch Raum lässt. Umgekehrt ist es wohl ein Defizit der Musiktheorie, dass eine Musik, die nicht primär in musikalischen Notaten vorliegt oder sich sogar genauer Notation entzieht, weiterhin stiefmütterlich behandelt wird. Hier soll nun versucht werden, einen sehr eingegrenzten Aspekt populärer Musik musiktheoretisch zu behandeln, um dann in einem weiteren Schritt sich Fragen von Gender und Persona zu nähern. Gegenstand soll Musik aus den frühen 80er Jahren sein, dargestellt am Beispiel von Ausschnitten aus den Transkriptionen der Songs »There Goes a Tenner« (Kate Bush, 1982) und »No Fear, No Hate, No Pain« (Annie Lennox/Eurythmics, 1983). Beide Sängerinnen galten zu dieser Zeit als extravagant, stimmlich vielseitig bis kapriziös, als Erscheinungen wandlungsfähig, Bush mit Hang zur theatralischen Inszenierung, Lennox als androgyn. Diese Vielgestaltigkeit der Charaktere soll hier anhand der Vokalarrangements analytisch beleuchtet werden: So erhält quasi jede Persona eine eigene Stimmfärbung, im Mix unterstützt durch Effekte und Verräumlichung. Theoretisch ergiebig ist auch die Analyse kontrapunktischer Aspekte, die einen Vergleich mit polyphoner Schreibweise für die Oper (etwa in Ensembles) herausfordern. Mehrstimmigkeit wird weniger in Gleichzeitigkeit erzeugt, als durch das Schneiden, Verzahnen und Schichten von semantisch geladenen Einzelelementen zu einem komplexen Narrativ. Abgerundet wird die Betrachtung durch analytische Aspekte des Arrangements, die sich zeittypisch in einem Spannungsfeld zwischen elektronischer Grundlage (Sequencer) und akustischer Schichtung (auch Geräusch und Weltmusikeinflüsse) bewegen. / The study of popular music rarely reaches a point that can be genuinely regarded as the result of applying analytical methods of music theory. However, what could be regarded as a deficiency of these studies can be positively explained, on the one hand: the thorough reading of pop history, socio-cultural and technical aspects hardly leave room for musical analyses. On the other hand, it is a shortcoming of music theory that it neglects music which does not exist in notated form or even eludes exact notation. Here, we will try to treat a limited aspect of popular music in terms of music theory and then approach questions of gender and persona in a further step. The subject is music of the early 1980s; excerpts from transcriptions of the songs »There Goes a Tenner« (Kate Bush, 1982) and »No Fear, No Hate, No Pain« (Annie Lennox/Eurythmics, 1983) will serve as examples. At that time, both singers were regarded as extravagant and from versatile to capricious vocally. Their appearances were many-sided: Bush showed a penchant for theatrical staging, and Lennox was seen as androgynous. This variety of the characters will be analyzed here based on the vocal arrangements: almost every persona is represented by its own vocal timbre, supported in the mix by effects and spatialization. The highlighting of contrapuntal aspects is especially productive for analysis and provokes a comparison with polyphonic writing for opera (e.g., in ensembles). Polyphony is produced less in simultaneity than by juxtaposition, interweaving, and the layering of semantically charged elements into a complex narrative. The study is rounded off by analytical aspects of the instrumental arrangements which, typical for the time, move in an area between electronic basis (sequencer) and acoustic stratification (incorporating concrete sound and influences of world music).

La matière-source du Cycle des astres est une écriture du présent consignée à la volée, des instantanés du quotidien qui laisse trace dans une écriture-temps aux formes hétéroclites. À la fois inscription du présent et trace du passé, la double temporalité des textes participe à la construction narrative d’une œuvre de création où coexistent premiers jets, poésie et autographie, et à l’articulation d’un projet d’écriture où se déploie la construction du Sens. Je me suis intéressée au recyclage des archives, aux jeux de temporalités, mais principalement à la construction narrative du récit et à son effet sur la subjectivité à l’œuvre dans le texte. À partir d’une lecture critique de L’Événement d’Annie Ernaux, je propose dans Le surgissement à l’œuvre une analyse de l’écriture fragmentaire et hétérogène comme moyen pour saisir la réalité à travers l’expérience d’une conscience subjective incarnée dans un texte qui rétablit la cohérence à l’œuvre. / The source/matter for Le Cycle des astres stems from a stenography of the present, snapshots of daily-life that leave trace through diversified forms of writing that I called écriture-temps. The inscription of the present becoming signs from the past represent the double temporality of the texts used as material used in my creative work where drafts, poetry and autography co-occur, and leave trace of a writing project in which the construction of Meaning unfolds through the process. I studied the recycling of archives and the interplay of temporalities, but mostly the construction of the narrative put forward by the text, and its effect on subjectivity. Du surgissement à l’oeuvre furthers this exploration of fragmentary and heteregeneous writing through a critical reading of Annie Ernaux's L’Événement. Writing is shown here as a means by which the essence of a subjective experience is embodied in a text that reestablishes its coherence.

L’imbrication de l’écriture et de la photographie sera examinée dans Les années, d’Annie Ernaux, de façon à montrer la tension au cœur du double désir de l’auteure de documenter des moments révolus et de les transmettre à autrui. Seront étudiées, d’un point de vue poétique et esthétique, la mise en œuvre des documents et les modalités d’inscription des souvenirs, lesquels sont généralement présentés sous forme d’images mémorielles. Nous verrons que ces images sont liées à un effet photographique, destiné au lecteur dans le but de partager une mémoire matérielle, intime et collective, s’étalant sur des années. Cet angle d’approche devrait permettre de relire Les années suivant une perspective critique nouvelle, et de contribuer aux recherches portant sur la narration, la trace et la mémoire dans la littérature contemporain. / The interweaving of writing and photography will be examined in Annie Ernaux’s Les années, showing the central tension of the author’s double desire to document past events and pass them on to others. The implement of documents and the engraving modes of memories are generally presented as mental images that will be studied here from a poetic and aesthetic point of view. We will see that those images are linked to a photographic effect, in order to share with the reader an intimate and collective material memory that spreads over many years. This approach would allow a rereading of Les années from a new critical perspective and a contribution to research about narrative, trace and memory in contemporary writing.

This study has as its main axis the Spectral Classification developed by Annie Jump Cannon and the importance of spectroscopy in the astronomical studies. The Harvard Spectral Classification, as it became known, is still used today. To understand this period will be shown the main points of the technological evolution of telescopes, the introduction of photography in astronomy, spectroscopy as a tool for astronomical studies and an example of the beginning of the spectral classification of a star made by Cannon / No final do séc. XIX e início do séc. XX, houve um avanço tecnológico no que diz respeito ao uso do telescópio: a introdução da fotografia para registro das imagens que eram observadas facilitou o acesso das mulheres em um ambiente até então considerado predominantemente masculino, o observatório. Este estudo tem como eixo principal a Classificação Espectral desenvolvidapor Annie Jump Cannon e a importância da espectroscopia nos estudos astronômicos. A Classificação Espectral de Harvard, como ficou conhecida, ainda é utilizada atualmente. Para compreender esse período serão mostrados os pontos principais da evolução tecnológica dos telescópios, a introdução da fotografia na astronomia, a espectroscopia como ferramenta para estudos astronômicos e um exemplo do início da classificação espectral de uma estrela feita por Cannon

The First Month at the Piano by Mana-Zucca, published in 1935, is a pioneering piano method to be taught by rote, supporting sound before sight learning theories, to the pre-school student. It differs from the Suzuki method in that The First Month at the Piano uses short, repetitive patterns, intrinsic to the Edwin Gordon Music Learning Theory. The First Month at the Piano has been compared to educational theories and has been found to follow Lev Vygotsky's theory of scaffolding and Jerome Bruner's principles of structure, readiness for learning, and motivation. The First Month at the Piano has been shown to provide a wide variety of sensory experiences for the pupil and establish a comfort and familiarity with the instrument. After completing the method, the pupil will have a solid aural foundation at the piano and will be fully prepared for primer level notation. It is a highly adaptable method and modified versions were made from the originals which would be of interest to today's teachers of pre-school piano students. Incorporation of interactive MIDI with electronic keyboards would enhance the students' learning experiences and be a direction to follow for future use of this method.
