Le dispositif posthumain comme vanité contemporaine / The posthuman device as contemporary vanity

Verdier, Antoine 19 November 2014 (has links)
La figure de l’homme a traversé l’histoire de la représentation, mais les valeurs signifiantes du mondecontemporain ne sont plus compatibles avec les conditions d’une histoire de l’idéal humain classique. Eneffet , face à l’évidence des changements induits par les avancées technologiques, nano et biotechnologiques,numériques, cognitives et génétiques, l’apparition d’une humanité augmentée semble irréversible. Entrel’angoisse d’un avenir profondément détérioré par les assauts d’un ultra libéralisme et le messianisme destechnoprohètes , l’expression d’un corps autre, « posthumain », conjugue émancipation narcissique, recherchescientifique, et hybridation corporelle. Le dispositif posthumain, qui émerge comme une des manifestations de«l’esprit du temps » dominant, peut se comprendre comme une « Vanité contemporaine ». Ce dispositif entenddépasser l’humain, construire un nouvel imaginaire, et chemin faisant, inventer une nouvelle représentationfigurative de l’individu.Dans le champ des arts plastiques, « le dispositif posthumain » donne lieu à de multiples expressionsqui en soulignent les incohérences, et surtout dénoncent certains déterminismes scientifiques. Conscient del’importance de ces enjeux scientifiques, culturels et idéologiques et souhaitant demeurer dans la logiqueinterrogative qui définit le champ des arts plastiques, / In front of the changes inferred by technological breakthroughs, nano and biotechnological, digital,cognitive and genetic, the appearance of a « increased » humanity seems inflexible. Between the anxiety of afuture profoundly damaged by the assaults of ultra liberalism, and the messianism of « technoprohets », theexpression of an other body, « posthuman « , conjugates narcissistic emancipation, scientific research, andphysical hybridization. The figure of the man crossed the history of the representation, but the significantvalues of the contemporary world are not compatible any more with the conditions of a history of the idealclassic human being. The « posthuman plan », which emerges as « spirit of the times », can understand as a« contemporary Vanity ». This device intends to overtake the human being, to build a new imagination, andcertainly to invent a new history of the representation of the individual. In the field of the plastic arts, « theposthuman device » give rise to multiple expressions who underlines the incoherence, and especially denouncescertain scientific determinisms. Aware of the importance of these scientific problems, but wishing to remainin this inquiring logic which defines the field of the plastic arts, I wanted to propose a plastic expression inall these questions. Three attitudes were respected to succeed for confining this question of the representationof the posthuman being. These attitudes could correspond in a kind of declension of the time : the end of thehumanism, the birth of a « increased » humanity, and finally, the appearance of a « posthuman being ».

Estilo e formação na filosofia do jovem Nietzsche / Style and formation in young Nietzsche\'s philosophy

Alexander Gonçalves 15 October 2015 (has links)
Num âmbito geral, nosso objetivo será identificar e analisar as origens da concepção estético-ética de estilo utilizada pelo jovem Nietzsche, bem como analisar a relação entre os conceitos de estilo (Stil) e formação (Bildung) nestes escritos juvenis. Num âmbito específico, o escopo do presente trabalho consiste em mostrar a tese de que o estilo, para o jovem Nietzsche, é tomado como um princípio estético-ético fundamental para que a filosofia realize a sua meta: a formação do homem. Pretendemos mostrar que Nietzsche pensa a ideia da formação do homem em estreita relação com a proposta classicista de uma educação estética através do caráter simples e ingênuo expresso no estilo da arte dos gregos. Retomando a luta pela formação (Bildungkampf)iniciada outrora pelos clássicos alemães, Winckelmann, Goethe e Schiller, Nietzsche se colocacomoherdeiro e continuador de uma corrente de pensadores que idealizaram a Grécia clássica como o modelo de cultura e, doravante, utilizaram este ideal como um ponto de fuga para superar a barbárie moderna. É neste registro que Nietzsche pensará o tema do estilo na filosofia, pois, uma vez que a tarefa da filosofia é realizar a formação do homem, o melhor estilo para o discurso filosófico deve ser o estilo simples e ingênuo dos clássicos. Como exemplo de simplicidade e ingenuidade no discurso filosófico moderno, Nietzsche apresenta Schopenhauer, o filósofo educador por excelência. / In a broad context, the main goal of this thesis will be to identify and analyze the origins of aesthetic-ethical conception in style used by the young Nietzsche, as well as to examine the relationship between the concepts of style (Stil) and education (Bildung) in these youthful writings. In a more specific context, the scope of this study is to describe the theory that style for young Nietzsche, is taken as an aesthetic-ethical fundamental principle for philosophy to achieveits goal: the formation of man. Nietzsche thinks the idea of the formation of man closely with the classicist proposal for an aesthetic education through the simple and naïve character expressed in the Greek art style. Returning to the \"struggle for formation\" (Bildungkampf) started once by German classics, Winckelmann, Goethe and Schiller, Nietzsche stands as an inheritor and continuer of a chain of thinkers who idealized the classical Greece as the model of culture and henceforth used this ideal as a breakout point for overcoming the modern barbarity. It is in this record that Nietzsche will think thetheme of style in philosophy, once, since the purpose of philosophy is to realize the formation of man, the best style for philosophical discourse should be simple and naïve style of the classics. As an example of simplicity and naivety in the modern philosophical discourse, Nietzsche presents Schopenhauer, the philosopher educator par excellence.

Franz Schubert's "Arpeggione" sonata : Style, background and role in romantic viola repertoire

Marjamäki, Veikko January 2021 (has links)
The importance that Franz Schuberts music has on any classical musician is almost indisputable. His output stretches over all the important genres of his time and while he never wrote solo pieces specifically for the viola, one work has gained an essential status in the viola repertoire. That work being the sonata for arpeggione and piano, D. 821. Volumes have been written on Schubert, his style, early 19th century Vienna, romanticism, classicism and the formal development of the sonata form as well as the rise of the bourgeoise music scene. Perhaps less is written on the viola and especially the arpeggione. My aim in this paper is to answer the question,” why arpeggione?”. Why does this work hold such a high status in our repertoire? I shall approach this question by both presenting the sonata in question by drawing its background and generally the style and background of Schubert and early romantic Vienna, and also by introducing two alternative early romantic sonatas, both by esteemed composers and written originally for viola. Lastly, I shall dissect the mostly arrangement-related challenges of the arpeggione sonata and discuss different reasons for it having attained such an important role in spite of its problematic suitability for the viola.

Capes And Diapers

Schreiber, Henry 01 January 2009 (has links)
By fusing classical imagery with passions and vicissitudes of the contemporary world, I create images that are technically sound yet riddled with both overt and subtle humor. These paintings are intended to illuminate the futility of guilt and frustration we encounter in the struggle for identity and meaning by arousing laughter, indignation, curiosity, and finally recognition.

Comment peut-on être classique au tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles? / How to be a classicist in the late ninetieth century?

Dufour, Élodie 24 November 2017 (has links)
Les recherches portent sur Anatole France, Henri de Régnier et René Boylesve, auteurs souvent jugés passéistes et anachroniques par la postérité. Au croisement de deux disciplines, les études littéraires et linguistiques, je me propose d'interroger la curieuse et paradoxale démarches d'auteurs qui, en pleine modernité, ont délibérément continué d'entretenir des liens avec le classicisme - avec toute la plasticité que recèle la notion -, un classicisme dont ils adaptent d'ailleurs la formule (et qui n'est ni celui de Paul Valéry, ni celui de la NRF, ni celui des maurrassiens) .Un questionnement sur le classicisme, la modernité, la contemporanéité, l'héritage, la transmission et la postérité sous-tend donc ces travaux. Au XXe siècle qui s’ouvrait sur les avant-gardes, miser sur le classicisme pour lutter contre « l’obsolescence programmée » de la littérature était sans doute une erreur d’appréciation à moyen terme. Mais avec un siècle de recul, il semble que notre relation aux avant-gardes soit en train de changer, qu’une certaine valeur patrimoniale du classicisme résiste aux sirènes tapageuses de la nouveauté absolue, et qu’il existe un espace original de création pour des écrivains qui se veulent aussi des passeurs. / My research deal with the work of Anatole France, Henri de Régnier and René Boylesve, oftenly described as passeist. Using both linguistic and literary viewpoints, I tackle the curious paradox unifying these authors who, during the Belle Epoque, declared themselves classicists. A questionning on concepts such as modernity, contemporaneity and legacy underlies this project.

L’école viennoise de contrebasse : genèse et réception

Gravel, Christian 01 1900 (has links)
Cette recherche met en parallèle les cultures germanophone et francophone par l’entremise de l’histoire de la contrebasse. La problématique consiste à expliquer l’absence de littérature en français sur l’école viennoise de contrebasse, qui s’est développée dans la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle et qui a eu une certaine incidence sur le développement de cet instrument. La première section propose une biographie des principaux représentants de cette école, tous contrebassistes virtuoses actifs à Vienne autour de 1750. Suivent un tour d’horizon des œuvres pour contrebasse concertante du classicisme viennois, puis un rappel historique sur le déclin de cette école. Dans la deuxième section, un parallèle est tracé entre l’avancée du violoncelle et le recul de la contrebasse au XIXe siècle. Suivent une présentation des instruments les plus appréciés de cette époque, à savoir le piano, le cor français et le violoncelle, puis une comparaison entre l’évolution de la contrebasse en France et dans les pays germanophones au XIXe siècle. Finalement, la troisième section est consacrée à la renaissance de l’école viennoise de contrebasse, amorcée au milieu du XXe siècle. Pour observer le déploiement de cette évolution dans les cultures française, germanophone et anglo-saxonne, cette section comporte un examen des œuvres publiées par les maisons d’édition spécialisées en musique ainsi que de celles enregistrées par les contrebassistes. / This research draws a parallel between the German and the French cultures through the history of the double bass. The problematic consists in explaining the absence of literature in French about the Viennese school of bass playing, which developed in the second half of the 18th century and had a certain impact on the development of this instrument. The first section proposes a biography of the main representatives of this school, which where all virtuosos double bassists in Vienna around 1750. This is followed by an overview of works for solos double bass of the First Viennese School, and a brief history of the decline of this school. In the second section a parallel is drawn between the progress of the violoncello and the decline of the double bass in the 19th century. This is followed by a presentation of the most appreciated instruments of this era, i.e. the piano, the French horn and the violoncello, and a comparison between the evolution of the double bass in France and in the German speaking countries in the 19th century. Finally, the third section is dedicated to the renaissance of the Viennese school of bass playing, which was initiated half way through the 20th century. To look closer to this evolution in the French, German and Anglo-Saxon cultures, this section also includes a review of works published by music publishers and those recorded by double bassists. / Diese Forschung will zwei Kulturen, die deutschsprachige und die französische, in Verbindung mit der Geschichte des Kontrabasses bringen. Die Fragestellung besteht darin, das Versäumnis der französischen Literatur über die Wiener Kontrabassschule zu erklären, eine Schule die sich in der zweiten Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts entwickelt und die eine Wirkung auf die Entwicklung dieses Instrumentes gehabt hat. Im ersten Abschnitt wird eine kurze Biographie der Hauptvertreter dieser Schule vorgeschlagen, die alle Kontrabassvirtuose und um 1750 in Wien tätig waren. Es folgt ein Überblick der Werke der Wiener Klassik für konzertanten Kontrabass, dann ein historischer Exkurs über den Niedergang dieser Schule. Im zweiten Abschnitt wird eine Parallele zwischen dem Vorsprung des Violoncellos und dem Rückgang des Kontrebasses im 19. Jahrhundert gezogen. In diesem Abschnitt werden desweiteren die bevorzugten Instrumente dieser Epoche, nämlich das Klavier, das Horn und das Violoncello diskutiert, und die Entwicklung des Kontrabasses in Frankreich und im deutschsprachigen Raum im 19. Jahrhundert verglichen. Schließlich widmet sich der dritte Abschnitt der Renaissance der Wiener Kontrabassschule, die in der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts begann. Um eine richtige Betrachtung der Entfaltung dieser Entwicklung in den französischen, deutschsprachigen und angelsächsischen Kulturen zu ermöglichen, findet sich in diesem Abschnitt ebenfalls eine Untersuchung der Werke, die von den Musikverlagen veröffentlicht wurden wie auch derjenigen, die von den Kontrabassisten aufgenommenen wurden.
