O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar o tema dos duplos em O homem duplicado, de José Saramago. Publicada no Brasil em 2002, a obra discute a questão a identidade no mundo globalizado, a partir da história do encontro entre Tertuliano Máximo Afonso, professor de história, e seu sósia, António Claro, um ator coadjuvante. Por meio da análise de trechos do romance, busca-se verificar como o autor retoma o tema do duplo para abordar a cisão da identidade do homem contemporâneo. Para realizar este estudo, a presente dissertação se apóia nos teóricos que trataram o tema do duplo, como Carl F. Keppler e Nicole Bravo, e da identidade, caso de Stuart Hall. Outro referencial é o trabalho de Marshall Berman sobre a dialética da modernização. Sigmund Freud também traz importantes contribuições do ponto de vista da psique humana. Com tais abordagens, o propósito é compreender melhor os mecanismos ficcionais que sustentam a crítica realizada por Saramago, buscando entender o jogo entre realidade exterior e interior no ambiente ficcional e social. Por este motivo, o trabalho está dividido em cinco partes. Na introdução, é apresentada a proposta da dissertação e a fundamentação teórica. O primeiro capítulo volta-se à análise do duplo homogêneo no romance. Em seguida, vem a investigação sobre o duplo heterogêneo. Os outros dois tratam da cisão da identidade contemporânea. Um enfoca a construção do conflito principal da obra, enquanto o segundo prioriza o estudo das ambiguidades ao longo do enredo, para evidenciar a estrutura da obra como característica da pós-modernidade. / This dissertation researches the duplicity in The Double, by José Saramago. This book was published in Brazil in 2002 and focuses on the globalized world identity, based on the story of the meeting between Tertuliano Máximo Afonso, a History teacher, and his look-alike, António Claro, a supporting actor. Analyzing parts of the novel, the way this duplicity theme is observed to approach the division of the contemporary man\'s identity. This dissertation is based on theoreticians who focus on duplicity, such as Carl F. Keppler and Nicole Bravo, and identity, Stuart Hall. The work of Marshall Berman on \"modernization dialectics is another reference. Sigmund Freud also provides important contributions from the point of view of the human psyche. Using such approach, it was possible to better understand fiction mechanisms supporting criticism by Saramago, trying to understand the game between the inner and outer reality in fiction and society. That is why this paper is divided in five parts. The first part presents the purpose of this dissertation and theoretical foundation. The second part focuses on the analysis of the homogeneous duplicity in this novel. Then, an investigation about the heterogeneous duplicity. The other two parts focuses on contemporary identity division. One focuses on the construction of the main conflict in this novel, and the other focuses on the study of ambiguities along the story, in order to make evident the structure of the novel as post modernity feature.

Cette étude met en lumière la dimension carnavalesque telle que théorisée par Mikhaïl Bakhtine chez Rabelais dans le roman cubain contemporain (El arpa y la sombra d’Alejo Carpentier, Paradiso de José Lezama Lima, De donde son los cantantes de Severo Sarduy, Tres tristes tigres de Guillermo Cabrera Infante, El color del verano o Nuevo “Jardín de las Delicias” de Reinaldo Arenas, La piel y la máscara de Jesús Díaz). Il s’agira principalement de montrer comment les caractéristiques de « ce monde à l’envers » qui marque la « vision carnavalesque » proposée par le théoricien russe s’inscrivent dans l’écriture, tant dans l’intégration des codes du carnaval comme motifs littéraires que dans les techniques narratives employées. Dans une lecture dépassant le concept baroque associé jusqu’ici aux romans cubains de notre corpus, nous envisageons la résurgence de traditions populaires anciennes de la fête carnavalesque, le mélange entre hommage et irrévérence, sacralisation et désacralisation, comme le symptôme d’une crise du sujet cubain, l’expression postmoderne du rejet des idoles en même temps que la manifestation d’un désir profond de retrouver une liberté provisoire dans la représentation littéraire carnavalisée et de se plonger dans l’âge d’or célébré par la fête. / This study sets out the Bakhtine “carnival dimension” in the Cuban contemporary novel (El arpa y la sombra by Alejo Carpentier, Paradiso by José Lezama Lima, De donde son los cantantes by Severo Sarduy, Tres tristes tigres by Guillermo Cabrera Infante, El color del verano o Nuevo “Jardín de las Delicias” by Reinaldo Arenas, La piel y la máscara by Jesús Díaz). Our main concern is to demonstrate that “upside down world characteristics” that fixe the “carnavalesque vision” proposed by the Russian theorist is part of the writing in the integration of the carnival’s codes both as literary themes as narrative techniques. In a reading exceeding the baroque concept associated up to now with the Cuban novels of our corpus, we envisage the resurgence of the carnival’s former popular traditions, the mixture between tribute and irreverence, sacralization and deconsecration, as the symptom of the Cuban subject’s crisis, the postmodern expression of the rejection of the idols at the same time as the demonstration of a deep desire to recover a temporary freedom in the carnivalized literary representation and to plunge into a golden age celebrated by the carnival.

Ce mémoire de recherche-création est d’abord un roman intitulé « Les fuckalls » portant sur les dérives quotidiennes d’un groupe d’amis résidant à Sherbrooke et leur tentative de former une communauté dans une société de performance. Seront considéré dans cette partie la conscience de la fiction, l’ennui, les relations et l’inertie. La partie analyse est une réflexion autour de l’idée de l’éloge de l’inertie, à travers le déploiement des mécanismes de l’ironie dans Document 1 de François Blais (2012), un récit de voyage subvertit par un duo de personnages ludiques, Tess et Jude. Cet essai investit d’abord la manière dont est inscrite l’inertie, notamment par l’exploration du quotidien et habitudes des personnages, mais aussi l’humour, aspect pouvant afficher le roman comme un hommage à L’hiver de force de Réjean Ducharme (1973). Le ton humoristique serait en lien avec la connivence que la narratrice tente de développer avec le lecteur, au travers d’une narration dite niaiseuse. Cette connivence est nécessaire à l’inscription de l’ironie dans le roman, qui passe entre autres par le récit et le discours de la narration, se déclinant autant les péripéties contradictoires qu’amène la quête falsifiée des personnages. L’analyse explore la façon dont est renversée cette doxa prônant le départ comme clé du bonheur, par l’exploration du territoire de proximité et la mise en abyme du récit. Au final, l’impossibilité même du départ traduit la fatalité inhérente au contexte dans lequel évolue les personnages, c’est-à-dire le confort et la raillerie. Les œuvres convoquées tissent entre elles des arguments amenant à la réflexion que l’ironie ici est le mécanisme portant l’éloge de l’inertie. / This memoir in creation-research is first and foremost a novel named “Les fuckalls”, in which is illustrated the aimless drifting of some teenagers in Sherbrooke, Québec as well as their attempt to form a community in a society that promotes productivity and appearance. Will be considered in this part the awareness of the fiction process, boredom, relationships and apathy. The research part focuses around the idea of the praise of apathy that comes from the mechanisms of irony in Document 1 by François Blais (2012), a road novel subverted by the playful duo formed by Tess and Jude. First, this essay dissects the way the notion of apathy is inserted in the daily lives of the characters, as well as the humor process, which can appear as a homage to the 1973 novel L’hiver de force, by Réjean Ducharme. This particular humoristic tone is linked to the complicity the narrator is trying to develop through a narration said to be mindless. This complicity is necessary to the inscription of irony in the text, which is manifesting itself through the story and the narration, as well as the contradictory twists that is brought by a falsified quest. This research explores the way that this doxa, which advocates that the key to happiness has to be somewhere else, is deflected by the author by the exploration of the adjacent territory and the mise en abyme of the story. In the end, the impossibility of any departure translates the inherent fatality of apathy, the state in which the characters are living their lives. The studied corpus links the irony as the mechanism that supports the praise of apathy.

Portés par un imaginaire hérité des récits de voyage ou d’exploration, ainsi que du roman de la route américain et québécois, les romans contemporains Six degrés de liberté de Nicolas Dickner et Document 1 de François Blais subvertissent l’écriture du voyage en mettant en cause ses conventions et ses présupposés, de même qu’en ébranlant une compréhension stable de l’espace. Ces deux textes mettent en scène des déplacements insolites : que ce soit à bord d’un conteneur réfrigéré ou sur le web, traversant de vastes territoires ou choisissant plutôt d’être cloîtrés, les protagonistes y transforment la visée cartographique du voyage. Tout en reprenant et en déplaçant une écriture du voyage codifiée, car marquée par nombre de topoï et de clichés qui apparaissent comme une véritable matière à s’approprier et à travailler, ces deux textes déploient des cartographies singulières, lesquelles mêlent invention et réalité, espaces géographiques et lieux imaginaires. Aussi ce mémoire entend-t-il s’intéresser à la représentation des lieux et du voyage dans ces deux récits, et ce, en portant une attention particulière au jeu que les romanciers instaurent avec leur lecteur, car c’est par le biais d’une ironie ludique que Document 1 et Six degrés de liberté observent et écrivent la réalité contemporaine. / Influenced by travel and exploration stories, as well as the American and Quebec road narratives, the contemporary novels Six Degrees of Freedom by Nicolas Dickner and Document 1 by François Blais subvert travel writing by challenging its conventions and assumptions, while interrogating a stable understanding of space. These two novels feature unusual journeys: whether on board a refrigerated container or through the web, crossing vast territories or confined, Blais and Dickner’s protagonists transform the cartographic purpose of travel. As they rewrite codified travel narratives and take over a number of topoï and clichés, these two texts deploy singular cartographies, which mix invention and reality, geographical spaces and imaginary places. This thesis therefore intends to focus on the representation of space and travel in these two novels, with a particular attention to the way novelists play with their reader, for it is through a ludic irony that Document 1 and Six degrees of freedom observe and record today’s reality.

Le déclin de la conflictualité du personnage avec la société est vu comme l’une des caractéristiques fondamentales de la littérature contemporaine. Les personnages de Baril Guérard, confiants, talentueux et au diapason avec la société actuelle, adhèrent à cette impression en s’engageant dans des quêtes dénuées d’adversité. Ils se découvrent cependant comme leur plus grand obstacle à l’accomplissement personnel qu’ils désirent. Le conflit central des romans les oppose ainsi à eux-mêmes, aux limites qu’ils se posent, et qui les force à changer. Quelles formes cette lutte contre soi prend-elle ? Dans quelle mesure la vacuité des quêtes annoncées contribue-t-elle à leur conflit intérieur ? Il sera question, dans ce mémoire, du déplacement du conflit en soi, le seul « lieu » où il peut encore se dérouler à l’époque actuelle. Il portera sur les trois premiers romans de Jean Philippe Baril Guérard, Sports et divertissements (2014), Royal (2016) et Manuel de la vie sauvage (2018). Dans la société actuelle où seul semble importer l’accomplissement personnel, la dépression et le manque de confiance en soi deviennent des obstacles majeurs. Une interprétation normative (Hamon) des jugements des protagonistes de Baril Guérard permettra de mieux saisir le milieu social d’où ils proviennent, en plus de rendre compte du sentiment de supériorité qui les définit. Incapables de maintenir celui-ci, le soi (Ricœur) et son idéal (Lasch Ehrenberg) engendrent plutôt l’effondrement intérieur des personnages. Le principal changement qu’ils s’imposent pour y remédier, passant par une réification (Lukacs) d’eux-mêmes, signale cependant moins une continuation du soi que sa perdition. / The decline of the conflict between character and society is seen as one of the fundamental characteristics of contemporary literature. Baril Guérard's characters, confident, talented and in tune with today's society, adhere to this impression by engaging in quests devoid of adversity. They discover themselves, however, as their own greatest obstacle to the personal fulfillment they desire. The central conflict of the novels thus opposes them to themselves, to the limits they set for themselves, and forces them to change. What forms does this struggle against oneself take? To what extent does the hollowness of the announced quests contribute to their inner conflict? This dissertation will focus on the displacement of the conflict within the self, the only "place" where it can still happen in today’s society. It will focus on the first three novels of Jean Philippe Baril Guérard, Sports et divertissements, (2014), Royal (2016) and Manuel de la vie sauvage (2018). In today's society where only personal achievement seems to matter, depression and lack of self-confidence become major obstacles. A normative interpretation (Hamon) of the judgments of Baril Guérard's protagonists will allow for a better understanding of the social background they belong to, in addition to accounting for the feeling of superiority that defines them. Unable to maintain this feeling of superiority, the self (Ricœur) and its ideal (Lasch Ehrenberg) by which the protagonists define themselves causes the inner collapse of the characters. However, the changes they submit themselves to remedy it, passing by a reification (Lukacs) of themselves, don’t mean a continuation of the self as much as its perdition.

La première partie du mémoire consiste en un court texte théâtral intitulé Procès-Verbal. Il met en scène un récit fragmentaire et explore les idées d’éclatement identitaire, de rupture de la mémoire et de mimétisme. Ces thèmes sont mis en relation avec des mécanismes de répétition, un traitement formel minimaliste et d’abondants silences, représentatifs de l’effacement identitaire des personnages. La seconde partie du mémoire, intitulée Filiation(s) rompue(s) : mémoire en pièces et tissus de parole, porte sur le traitement des thèmes de la mémoire et de l’héritage dans le roman Parents et amis sont invités à y assister d’Hervé Bouchard. L’analyse vise à mettre en lumière le lien entre la fragmentation textuelle et la rupture filiale, et s’attarde spécifiquement à la dislocation de la parole, qui témoigne d’une construction identitaire problématique. / The first part of this thesis consists of a short theatrical text entitled Procès-Verbal. It features a fragmentary story and explores the ideas of burst identity, broken memory and mimicry. These themes are related with mechanisms of repetition, minimalist formal treatment and abundant silences, representative of the faded identity of the characters. The second part of the thesis, entitled Filiation(s) rompue(s) : mémoire en pièces et tissus de parole, gets into the themes of memory and heritage in Hervé Bouchard’s novel Parents et amis sont invités à y assister. The analysis aims to highlight the link between textual fragmentation and disrupted legacy. It focuses specifically on the dislocation of speech, indication of a broken identity.

L’objectif de cette thèse est d’explorer un mode particulier de transmission des messages contenus dans les œuvres romanesques, et plus précisément une mise en scène basée sur la représentation et la recréation d’un processus initiatique. Pour cela, après avoir étudié la permanence de l’initiation dans le monde postmoderne et délimité sa présence dans la littérature, il a été proposé une théorie et une méthode d’analyse du roman qui se veulent utiles aussi bien pour les personnages que pour le lecteur. Afin de valider cette proposition théorique et méthodologique, une application pratique en a été réalisée dans l’analyse de l’œuvre d’Antonio Muñoz Molina. En effet, les romans de l’écrivain espagnol présentent la double caractéristique d’un engagement éthique constamment réaffirmé et d’une recherche esthétique marquée tant par l’écriture labyrinthique que par la volonté d’interaction avec le lecteur. Or, l’analyse de l’évolution des personnages et de la représentation du Lecteur Modèle en suivant l’hypothèse d’une transformation initiatique a permis de mettre au jour une réitération de l’emploi du processus dans les différents romans. De plus, ce même angle d’étude des œuvres s’est révélé particulièrement apte à l’analyse des romans d’Antonio Muñoz Molina car le prisme de l’initiation a favorisé la mise en place d’une vision globale des romans prenant en compte tant leur forme que leur fond, la structure narrative que le message éthique, les personnages que le lecteur. / The broad objective of this thesis was to explore a particular way of transmitting messages contained in novels, and more precisely a mise en scene based on the representation and re-creation of an initiatory process. In this view, after studying the permanence of initiation in the post-modern world and defining its presence in literature, a theory and a method of analysing novels were suggested as being useful for the characters as well as for the reader. So as to confirm this theoretical and methodological proposition, a practical implementation was carried out in the analysis of Antonio Muñoz Molina’s work. Indeed the novels of the Spanish writer feature both a constantly reaffirmed ethical commitment and an aesthetics research characterised by labyrinth writing and the will of interacting with the reader. Besides, the analysis of the characters’ development and representation of the Model Reader according to the hypothesis of an initiatory transformation brought to light the reiteration of the use of the process in the various novels. In addition, this very angle of the novels’ study proved to be particularly suitable in the analysis of Antonio Muñoz Molina’s because the initiation prism helped the implementation of a global vision of novels that took into account both their style and content, both the narrative structure and ethical message and both the characters and reader.

Um Romance B. The research has two moments: the contemporary context of the novel´s kind of writing, in Brazil, and the corpuses analysis, under the light of theories that discuss the contemporary time. The paper work asks if could Caio Fernando Abreu´s novel be showing traces that break with characteristics of the traditional novel s narrative. Its objective is a critical analysis of the narrative, checking the choices, which not only define the structural elements of the narrative but a few social and psychological aspects of the contemporary man. The theoretical argumentation is based on studies from Urlich Gumbrecht, Tânia Pellegrini, Umberto Eco, between others. Being a child of 70´s literature, Onde Anadará Dulce Veiga? Um Romance B arrives to the 90´s dragging a literary past remarkably Brazilian, incorporating non usual techniques from other arts and characterizing vividly the artistic-cultural scene in the end of the 20th century / Esta dissertação centra-se no campo da análise literária e focaliza o romance de Caio Fernando Abreu, Onde Andará Dulce Veiga? Um Romance B. A pesquisa se detém em dois momentos: a contextualização contemporânea do gênero romance, especialmente no Brasil, e a análise do corpus, sob a luz de teorias que discutem a contemporaneidade. O trabalho pergunta se o romance de Caio Fernando Abreu pode estar rompendo com os modelos precedentes de construção do texto romanesco e se é possível estar se distanciando dos moldes oferecidos pelos procedimentos de criação da narrativa tradicional. Objetiva uma análise crítica da narrativa, verificando as escolhas feitas que delimitam não só os elementos estruturais do romance, mas também certos aspectos sociais e psicológicos do homem contemporâneo. A fundamentação teórica está apoiada nos estudos de Hans Urlich Gumbrecht, Tânia Pellegrini, Umberto Eco, entre outros. Sendo fruto da literatura dos anos 70, Onde Andará Dulce Veiga? Um Romance B chega aos anos 90 carregado de um passado literário marcadamente brasileiro, incorporando técnicas diferenciadas de outras artes e caracterizando vivamente o cenário artístico-cultural dos fins do século XX

Patrícia Melo s novel, O Matador, also shows the instability of this point of view because although the narration is done in first person by the protagonist it doesn t guarantee the constant narrator s presence in the storytelling. This mix between literary and non-literary procedures directly interferes in the narrator s authority because at the time of oral narration the narrator based his story on experience, but currently bases his authority on presentiveness , according to contemporary demand that privileges simultaneity. In this novel the strategies used to obtain presentification of the storytelling have a double consequence: on the one hand they give legitimacy to the facts since they seem to renounce to the narrator s presence and on the other hand they eliminate the protagonist-narrator s traces since at times he behaves as a spectator. Ultimately, the study of this narrator who often oscillates between leaving and eliminating traces, behaving as an observer of the roles played by himself, questions and at the same time reinvents the representation apparatus using the different presentification strategies like advertisements, TV news, newspapers, lack of marks in the change in voice in the dialogues, etc. This attitude will set a fast pace to the story and the apparent lack of mediation will contribute to strengthening a pact with the reader. Therefore in O Matador we observe the dramatization of the loss in the naturalness of telling a story through discourse / Observamos no romance contemporâneo uma acentuada perda da naturalidade de narrar, que redunda na multiplicação dos pontos de vista e, conseqüentemente, na inconstância da presença do narrador. O romance O Matador, de Patrícia Melo também apresenta essa instabilidade de ponto de vista, pois apesar da narração ser feita em primeira pessoa, pelo protagonista, isso não assegura presença constante do narrador na condução do relato. A mescla de procedimentos literários e não-literários interfere diretamente na autoridade desse narrador, pois se na época das narrativas orais, o narrador respaldava seu relato na experiência, atualmente, ele ancora sua autoridade na presentidade, mais de acordo com a demanda contemporânea, que privilegia a simultaneidade. Neste romance, as estratégias utilizadas visando à presentificação do relato têm dupla conseqüência: de um lado conferem legitimidade aos fatos, uma vez que parecem prescindir do narrador e, de outro, apagam as marcas do narrador-protagonista, já que este se comporta, por vezes, como um espectador. O estudo deste narrador, que oscila entre deixar e apagar marcas, comportando-se como observador dos fatos que protagonizou, acaba questionando e, ao mesmo tempo, reinventando os aparatos de representação por meio de diferentes estratégias de presenticação tais como: propagandas, noticiários de TV e de jornal, ausência de marcação de mudança de voz nos diálogos, etc. Essa atitude imprimirá um ritmo veloz ao relato e a aparente ausência de mediação contribuirá para o fortalecimento do pacto com o leitor. Por isso, em O Matador observamos a dramatização da perda da naturalidade de narrar por meio do discurso

In the course of the intradiegetic narration in the first person, we describe polygamy in a state of dramatic language sustained by concepts of literary theory and recent studies carried out by researchers of African Literature such as Coelho (1993), Leite (1988, 2004), Chaves (2005), Soares (2006), Lobo (2007), Noa (1997), Rosario (1989) and Santilli (2003). Chapter I, The Mirror A Reflection of Dialogue between Feminine and Masculine Love, centralizes the orality and vocality in discourse from Zumthor (1993,2000) under the aspects of Mozambican tongue and language represented in the polydiscourse of the Niketche dance, supported by Baudrillard (1992), Bettelheim (1980), Bachelard (2002), Genette (1995), Eco (1989), Segolin (1999), Urbano (2000), Bonicci (2000), Todorov (1968), Derrida (2005), Barthes (2006), among others. In Chapter II, Discursive Confluences between Feminine Faces/Voices, we demonstrate the discursive convergencies of female and male characters under the polyphonic theory of Bakthin (2002) which allowed us to establish an image of women oriented by caricatural and ludicrous behavior in group performance, founded on the matriarchal system, yet guaranteed by Casimiro (2004) and Tsemo (1992). In Chapter III, In the Legends of Western Orality Africanness, warranted by Perrone-Moises (1978, 2000) and by researchers of the said African Literature, we speak of the I-narrators as esthetical results of a ritualized and up-dated plot of the symbolic past. Lastly, Niketche, a dance of recreation, expresses the transition of the written language and the language of orality giving them a transforming character through body language, the place of the performance of the new writing of the memory, of Western tradition, and the testimonial and biographic change of female voices in a renewed textual universe / A principal questão investigada e comprovada pela leitura de Niketche: uma história de poligamia (2004), da escritora Paulina Chiziane, remete-se às analogias no diálogo plural, no espaço da experiência perceptiva e cultural geradora de imagens libertárias da consciência feminina no contexto poligâmico moçambicano. Na direção da narração intradiegética em primeira pessoa, descreveu-se, neste estudo, a poligamia em estado de linguagem dramática, tendo como suporte conceitos da teoria literária e estudos recentes de pesquisadores da literatura africana, como Coelho (1993), Leite (1988, 2004), Chaves (2005), Soares (2006), Lobo (2007), Noa (1997), Rosário (1989), Santilli (2003). O capítulo I, intitulado O Espelho: reflexo do diálogo entre o amor feminino e masculino centraliza a oralidade e a vocalidade no discurso, a partir de Zumthor (1993, 2000), sob os aspectos da língua e da linguagem moçambicanas, representado no polidiscurso da dança Niketche, apoiada, por Baudrillard (1992), Bettelheim (1980), Bachelard (2002), Genette (1995), Eco (1989), Segolin (1999), Urbano (2000), Bonicci (2000), Todorov (1968), Derrida (2005), Barthes (2006), dentre outros. No capítulo II, Confluências discursivas entre faces/vozes femininas , foram demonstradas as convergências discursivas de personagens femininas e masculinas sob a teoria polifônica de Bakthin (2002), que permitiu prescrever uma imagem da mulher orientada pelo comportamento caricatural e lúdico em performance grupal, fundamentado no matriarcalismo, todavia, afiançada por Casimiro (2004) e Tsemo (1992). No capítulo III, Nas lendas da oralidade ocidental a africanidade , avalizada por Perrone-Moisés (1978, 2000) e por pesquisadores da literatura africana em citação, aborda-se os eus-narradores como resultantes estéticos de uma trama ritualizada e atualizada do passado simbólico. Nas considerações finais, Niketche, dança recriadora, enuncia a transição da língua escrita e da linguagem da oralidade, conferindo-lhes um caráter transformador pela linguagem do corpo, lugar da performance da nova escritura da memória, da tradição ocidental e da mudança testemunhal e biográfica das vozes femininas, em renovado universo textual
