Cette thèse porte sur L'Amour, la fantasia, d'Assia Djebar. En lisant cette thèse, je vous invite à voyager avec moi. J'emploie le terme voyager, car Djebar a très souvent dit qu'il faut qu'on passe par l'histoire avant d'examiner le présent et l'avenir. Donc, dans le chapitre Le palimpseste de l'histoire coloniale, nous allons retourner à la période coloniale, où je valS démontrer que Djebar a d'abord relu les documents «officiels» de la conquête française de l'Algérie et puis je vais montrer comment elle les a récrits selon la historique colonisé afin participation de créer un qui inclut la perspective d'un sujet palimpseste féminine. Dans le chapitre De l'oralité algérienne à l'écriture française, nous allons avancer de plus d'un siècle, jusqu'à la guerre d'indépendance. Ici, je vais montrer comment Djebar passe par l'histoire orale afin d'établir une relation en palimpseste entre l'oralité, l'écriture et l'autobiographie. Ensuite, dans le chapitre Le palimpseste multilingue, je vais faire une analyse lexicologique pour prouver que Djebar a créé un palimpseste multilingue qui, à la fois défamiliarise la langue française pour un francophone et rend la langue plus accueillante pour un lecteur arabophone. Finalement, en lisant cette dissertation, je m'attends à ce que vous, le lecteur, voyiez ce roman palimpseste comme une arme de combat contre les effets négatifs de la colonisation et pas comme une transgression faite par une femme écrivain algérienne. / Master of Arts (MA)

<p>War experienced and meditated became a great source of inspiration in Giraudoux's theatre. The aim of this thesis is to examine Giraudoux's ideas on war in Siegfried, a post-war play written in 1928 and in La Guerre de Troie n1aura pas lieu, a pre-war play written in 1935. This playwrightls ideas do not manifest themselves solely in the dialogues of the characters but a1so in their gestures and their visual expressions as we1l as in the stage decorations. Such a study aims at bringing about an appreciation of the evolution not only in Giraudoux's ideas on war during the very precarious period between the two World Wars but also in his dramatic techniques especially in the area of stage effects.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)

<p>This thesis is a general study of Louis Rustaing de Saint-Jory's Les Femmes militaires (1735). It compares sorne aspects of Saint-Jory's work to a few earlier imaginary voyages and discusses contemporary literary tastes, in particular Orientalism and medievalism. It seeks possible sources for the author's ideas on the equality of the sexes and traces the development of feminism in France from the latter half of the seventeenth century to the time of publication of Saint-Jory's novel.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)

<p>The social writings of André Gide may not be considered as being separate from or unrelated to the rest of the author's work. They constitute a development of that problem which Gide examines in all his work, namely the search for a code of ethics for individual life in society, and in particular the assertion of the extent to which man may be hindered by other people as well as by certain social attitudes and institutions in the fulfilment of his desires and in the satisfaction of his requirements.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)
