The question of decline in the historiography of seventeenth-century Spain originally included socio-economic analyses that determined the decline of Spain was an economic recession. Eventually, the historiographical debate shifted to include cultural elements of seventeenth-century Spanish society. Gender within the context of decline provides further insight into how the deterioration of the Spanish economy and the deterioration of Spanish political power in Europe affected Spanish self-perception. The prolific Spanish women writers, in addition, featured their points of view on manhood in their works and created a model of masculinity known as virtuous masculinity. They expected Spanish men to perform their masculine duties as protectors and providers both in public and in private. Seventeenth-century decline influenced how women viewed masculinity. Their new model of masculinity was based on ideas that male authors had developed, but went further by emphasizing men treating their wives well.

Tomás Segovia and Angelina Muñiz Huberman belong to a group of writers known as «Hispanomexicanos». Most approaches to this generation have been towards the role that exile plays in their early work, paying almost no attention to its role after that initial stage. These approaches have been limited to the first years of their work, in the belief that those writers subsequently moved on to deal with issues which are different from those in which their experience of exile is clearly the central topic. However, through an analysis of the poetry of Muñiz and Segovia, this thesis aims to show that exile continues to play a central role beyond that first stage. It argues that their exile is transformed into a series of symbols that come to constitute a shared style and, more importantly, it proposes that their experience of exile is transformed into a feeling of existential displacement which impels a search for meaning and belonging to the world. Consequently, the conclusion presented in this thesis is that exile plays a central role in their poetry, in the sense that it expresses the ways in which these two writers search and transmit meaning and attempt to feel part of the world. Ultimately, this thesis aims to set an example of approach which could be productively taken to study the work of other writers from this generation.

Tras un trauma histórico, la memoria colectiva puede sufrir patologías similares a las de la memoria individual. Para tratar esta memoria herida, las sociedades – o los segmentos de estas aquejados de una memoria herida – deben iniciar un proceso de anamnesis para realizar un trabajo de duelo. Una de las manifestaciones de ese proceso anamnésico es la cultura de la memoria, de la que forma parte la “escritura de la memoria” en la que se inscriben Dulce Chacón y Marie-Célie Agnant.<p><p>Dulce Chacón desea recuperar la memoria de las vencidas en la Guerra Civil española, víctimas de la represión de la postguerra. En el caso de Marie-Célie Agnant, se trata de la voluntad de recuperar la memoria de las inmigrantes haitianas llegadas a Quebec huyendo de la represión del régimen duvalierista. Esta memoria herida remonta hasta la herida originaria de la esclavitud y rinde homenaje a las esclavas cimarronas. <p><p>En esta Tesis, proponemos un análisis comparativo desde una perspectiva transdisciplinar de la recuperación de la memoria en la obra de estas dos autoras.<p><p>L’objet de ce travail est l’étude comparée de l’œuvre de Dulce Chacón et de Marie-Célie Agnant sous l’angle de l’écriture de la mémoire. Bien que fondamentalement littéraire, cette étude est abordée sous un angle transdisciplinaire, puisqu’elle a recours à des outils psychanalytiques, sociologiques, philosophiques ou historiques.<p><p>L’écriture de la mémoire, dans laquelle s’inscrivent ces deux auteures, fait partie de façon active du procesus d’anamnèse collective. <p><p>Tout aussi bien Marie-Célie Agnant, écrivaine québécoise d’origine haïtienne, que Dulce Chacón, écrivaine espagnole, se positionnent en tant qu’écrivaines-témoin pour récupérer la mémoire blessée. Dans le cas d’Agnant, il s’agit de la mémoire de la migration, de la répresion du régime duvalieriste et, plus loin encore, de la mémoire de l’esclavage et du marronnage. Dans le cas de Chacón, il s’agit de la mémoire de la guerre civile espagnole et de la répresion franquiste de l’après-guerre. <p><p>À travers l’analyse de l’oeuvre littéraire de ces deux auteures issues de deux contextes différents, ainsi que du constat des caractéristiques communes, cette thèse doctorale propose une poétique de l’écriture de la mémoire basée sur une grille d’analyse qui comprendra des aspects contextuels, paratextuels et intratextuels au niveau discursif, sémantique et stylistique.<p><p> / Doctorat en Langues et lettres / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished
