Harmonium : un projet artistique progressif et spirituel occulté par un récit d’affirmation nationaleLessard, Guillaume 06 1900 (has links)
Ce mémoire propose un regard transdisciplinaire : historique, sociologique et musical sur
Harmonium, un groupe culte de folk-rock progressif québécois des années 1970. Y sont étudiées
la révolution musicale engendrée par l’arrivée du folk et du rock progressif au Québec ainsi que
la mise en récit de l’œuvre et de l’histoire d’Harmonium. Les œuvres du groupe, les sources
écrites d’époque (articles de journaux et de revues), l’histoire documentaire et l’histoire et la
mémoire publiques y sont confrontées pour analyser les processus narratifs.
D’abord, l’essor du groupe est situé dans les transformations de la scène musicale
québécoise au cours des années 1960-1970. L’histoire d’Harmonium, entre 1972 et 1978, est
ensuite reconstituée au travers des sources d’époque, articles scientifiques et biographies. Par la
suite, les caractéristiques musicales des œuvres ainsi que les thèmes, valeurs et messages
véhiculés par le groupe sont examinés. L’essor et le succès d’Harmonium sont ainsi réinterprétés
au travers du développement de la scène musicale progressive internationale et de la
popularisation de la contre-culture. Finalement, en regard de l’ambiguïté politique
d’Harmonium dans les sources historiques, la prédominance des réinterprétations
néonationalistes de son œuvre et de son histoire sont analysées selon un processus de mise en
récit de l’histoire nationale. Il en ressort que la narration prédominante au sein de l’histoire et
de la mémoire publiques semble assimiler le destin des artistes québécois à celui du peuple et
de la nation. Dans le cas d’Harmonium, ce récit qui s’appuie principalement sur le nationalisme
de Serge Fiori, la figure de proue du groupe, contribue à l’occultation du projet artistique
spirituel, progressif, contre-culturel et « authentique » du groupe. / This study proposes a transdisciplinary point of view: historic, sociologic and musical to
Harmonium, a Quebec preeminent progressive folk-rock group of the 1970s. This work is
interested in the musical revolution that came with the birth of folk and progressive rock musical
scenes in Quebec and in the narrative and symbols associated with the musical work and history
of Harmonium. The group’s albums, the written sources of the time (articles in journals and
magazines), the documentaries and the public history and memory are all examined and
confronted in this research to study the historical narrative.
To begin with, the rise of the group is contextualized in the transformations of Quebec’s
musical scene in the 1960s-1970s. The history of Harmonium, situated between 1972 and 1978,
is then reconstructed using historical sources, scientific articles and biographies. Thereafter, the
musical characteristics, themes, values, ideals and messages of the group are examined.
Harmonium’s emergence and success is then reinterpreted through the development of the
progressive rock international musical scene and the popularization of the counter-culture.
Finally, in light of the political ambiguity of Harmonium that the historical sources reveal, the
neonationalist reinterpretations of its work and history is analyzed as a narrative process. This
narration, which predominates in public history and memory, seems to assimilate the destiny of
Quebec’s artists with the destiny of its people and its nation, therefore contributing to the
occultation of Harmonium’s progressive, counter-cultural and “authentic” musical quest.

A guerra dos mundos ou as relações institucionais entre a homeopatia e a medicina científica / War of the Worlds or the institutional relations between homeopathy and scientificmedicineFiore, Juliano De 20 August 2015 (has links)
O Objetivo deste trabalho é tratar da Homeopatia e da Medicina Científica, e de sua convivência institucional, considerando principalmente o cenário posterior à década de 1980, quando de sua assimilação pela Medicina Oficial brasileira. O que se pretende demonstrar, fundamentalmente, é que a Medicina Científica e a Homeopatia são essencialmente diferentes, e acima de tudo demonstrar que este caso particular de relações institucionais deve ser entendido sob pelo menos duas perspectivas, de uma epistemológica, e de outra sociológica. Essas duas perspectivas são essenciais para entender a moderna relação institucional entre Homeopatia e Medicina Científica, que acontece num contexto de assimilação institucional da Homeopatia pela Medicina Oficial. Ainda que essa integração nunca possa vir à ser concretizada completamente, essa assimilação é resultado de uma grande mudança no universo simbólico das culturas ocidentais, principalmente dos conceitos e valores ligados ao imaginário da saúde. Neste novo contexto simbólico, a ciência como instituição é ressignificada e e devidamente recontextualizada, em termos de cultura popular e senso comum (universo simbólico da vida cotidiana), de modo que passa a poder acomodar os mais diversos tipos de conhecimentos em seu universo. É sob a perspectiva do processo de racionalização e desencantamento do mundo que essas instituições são analisadas e a compreensão dos universos simbólicos mantidos por cada grupo é o objetivo central desse trabalho. / This study deals with Homeopathy and Scientific Medicine and focus its institutional relationship, especially considering the latter scenario to the 1980s decade, after its assimilation by brazilian Official Medicine. It intends to demonstrate that Scientific Medicine and Homeopathy are fundamentally and essentially different things and, above all, demonstrate that this particular case of institutional relations should be understood in, at least, two perspectives: epistemological, and sociological. These perspectives are essential to understand the modern relationship between Homeopathy and Official Medicine - which takes place in a context of institutional assimilation of homeopathy by the Official Medicine (although this integration could never come to be fully realized). This assimilation is the result of a change in the symbolic universe of western cultures, especially the concepts and values linked to the health imaginary. In this new symbolic context, science, as an institution, is resignified and recontextualized in terms of popular culture and common sense (the symbolic universe of everyday life), allowing to accommodate all different types of knowledge in this new resigninified universe of science. Its from the process of rationalization and disenchantment of the worlds perspective that these institutions are analyzed, and the understanding of the symbolic universes maintained by each group is the central objective of this work.

William S. Burroughs et le cinéma : expérimentations, présences, contaminations / William Burroughs and cinema : experimentations, presences, contaminationClerc, Adrien 12 November 2015 (has links)
Cette thèse est une étude approfondie du rapport de William S. Burroughs au cinéma. William S. Burroughs, en collaboration avec Antony Balch, a produit entre 1961 et 1972 des courts-métrages expérimentaux aux formes de montage et de figuration radicales. Ces films, largement ignorés, constituent un pan essentiel du cinéma expérimental. Leur étude met en lumière l'évolution d'une pensée politico-esthétique de l'image chez Burroughs, une pensée voisine de celle de Guy Debord et qui influencera celle de Gilles Deleuze .Burroughs a également travaillé en tant qu'acteur : l'analyse de ses apparitions est ici pensée en fonction de leur rapport à l’œuvre écrite de Burroughs et à son versant biographique, l'écrivain déconstruisant les personnages qu'il joue de la même manière qu'il déconstruisait le cinéma. Un ensemble de films, répondant plus ou moins fidèlement à l’appellation d'adaptations, constituent un aspect important de notre corpus. Ces œuvres, qu'elles travaillent les écrits dans un rapport fondé sur la reproduction, le décalage, ou l'éclatement, produisent des formes inédites. Cette étude est complétée par un retour sur l'influence de Burroughs sur trois auteurs majeurs du cinéma nord-américain contemporain, Cronenberg, Van Sant et Lynch. Tous trois réinvestissent l’œuvre et la pensée de Burroughs dans le cadre de leur propre production, que ce retour se concentre sur l'apparition de la voix, le lien entre signature visuelle et présence ou la fragmentation de la narration classique. En mettant en relation expérimentations, présences et contaminations de l'écrivain au cinéma, ce travail vise la réhabilitation de ce versant de l’œuvre de William S. Burroughs. / This work is an exhaustive study of William S. Burroughs' interest in cinema. Burroughs, in collaboration with Antony Balch, produced between 1961 and 1972 a series of experimental short films with radical editing and visual styles. These widely ignored films are an essential part of experimental cinema. Their study highlights the evolution of the author's political and aesthetic vision, close to those of Guy Debord or Gilles Deleuze. Burroughs also worked as an actor. The analysis of his cinematographic apparitions is linked to their relation to Burroughs' written work and its biographical aspects: the writer deconstructs the characters he plays in the same way as he deconstructs the mise-en-scène.A set of films, which can loosely be said to be adaptations, are another important part of the corpus of this study. These works, in a relation to the written word based on reproduction, shift or blow-out, produce original cinematographic images.This study is completed with a flash-forward to Burroughs' influence on three important north-american filmmakers: David Cronenberg, Gus Van Sant and David Lynch. These three authors reinvest Burroughs' work within the framework of their own production, focusing on the apparition of the voice, the link between visual signature and the notion of presence or the shattering of a conventional narrative.Linking experimentations, presences and contaminations of the writer in the cinematographic art, this thesis aims to rehabilitate this part of Burroughs' work.

The importance of counter-culture in art and lifeOrtlieb, Paulina Elizabeth 03 February 2015 (has links)
Punk rock provided not only a watershed of creativity, innovation and a do-it-yourself spirit to a culture saturated in the mainstream, it physically brought like-minded people together in a community, or rather extended family, which in today’s hyper-d.i.y. culture, is progressively declining. As early as the 1940s, theorists such as Adorno and Horkheimer warned us about alienation in a society increasingly dependent on technology. By looking to punk, and other resilient and robust counter-cultures, perhaps we can find solutions to the pitfalls of the ‘culture industry’ (Adorno, Horkheimer, 1944).
My thesis, consisting of a feature-length documentary film and textual analysis, is a culmination of: ethnographic research into the punk scene in my own community; theoretical research into the sociology, ethnography and subculture theory; and my own subjectivity. My personal findings are presented to offer insight into punk philosophy and to spur discourse, rather than deliver an objective account or didactic reproach. / Graduate

Die "Fiedler-Debatte" oder Kleiner Versuch, die "Chiffre 1968" von links ein wenig auf-zuschreibenWalther, Danny 19 November 2010 (has links) (PDF)
Ausgehend von der sog. "Fiedler-Debatte" des Jahres 1968, eine jener Auseinandersetzungen über Formen und Inhalte, Aufgaben und Möglichkeiten von Literatur, Kunst und deren Kritik, wie sie im Umkreis des Annus mirabilis so häufig wie heftig geführt worden sind, unternimmt diese Arbeit auf rund 340 Seiten den Versuch, mit (nicht nur) diskursanalytischen Methoden das in der "Chiffre 1968" besonders virulent gewordene Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Kunst, Literatur und Ästhetik auf der einen und den vielfältigen Politisierungstendenzen auf anderen Seite mikrologisch auf-zuschreiben und mit Blick auf eine ganze Reihe verschiedener Bezugspunkte und -ebenen zu erklären (z.B. bezüglich genereller Kunst- und Ästhetikvorstellungen innerhalb der (Neuen) Linken, hinsichtlich der Aufarbeitung der deutschen NS-Vergangenheit, der Auseinandersetzung mit Antiamerikanismus usw.) Dabei rücken nicht nur die vielfältigen, nicht selten geradezu antagonistisch auftretenden "deutschen" Revolte-Ansätze "um '68", sondern auch Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede zu zeitgleichen Tendenzen und Debatten in den USA in den Fokus. Die umfangreiche Analyse der ebenso vielen wie vielschichtigen Ebenen der "Chiffre 1968" zeigt, dass von einem "1968"oder "den 68ern" nirgends Rede sein kann.

Marijuana Australiana: Cannabis use, popular culture and the Americanisation of drugs policy in Australia, 1938-1988Jiggens, John Lawrence January 2004 (has links)
The word 'marijuana' was introduced to Australia by the US Bureau of Narcotics via the Diggers newspaper, Smith's Weekly, in 1938. Marijuana was said to be 'a new drug that maddens victims' and it was sensationally described as an 'evil sex drug'. The resulting tabloid furore saw the plant cannabis sativa banned in Australia, even though cannabis had been a well-known and widely used drug in Australia for many decades. In 1964, a massive infestation of wild cannabis was found growing along a stretch of the Hunter River between Singleton and Maitland in New South Wales. The explosion in Australian marijuana use began there. It was fuelled after 1967 by US soldiers on rest and recreation leave from Vietnam. It was the Baby-Boomer young who were turning on. Pot smoking was overwhelmingly associated with the generation born in the decade after the Second World War. As the conflict over the Vietnam War raged in Australia, it provoked intense generational conflict between the Baby-Boomers and older generations. Just as in the US, pot was adopted by Australian Baby-Boomers as their symbol; and, as in the US, the attack on pot users served as code for an attack on the young, the Left, and the alternative. In 1976, the 'War on Drugs' began in earnest in Australia with paramilitary attacks on the hippie colonies at Cedar Bay in Queensland and Tuntable Falls in New South Wales. It was a time of increasing US style prohibition characterised by 'tough-on-drugs' right-wing rhetoric, police crackdowns, numerous murders, and a marijuana drought followed quickly by a heroin plague; in short by a massive worsening of 'the drug problem'. During this decade, organised crime moved into the pot scene and the price of pot skyrocketed, reaching $450 an ounce in 1988. Thanks to the Americanisation of drugs policy, the black market made 'a killing'. In Marijuana Australiana I argue that the 'War on Drugs' developed -- not for health reasons -- but for reasons of social control; as a domestic counter-revolution against the Whitlamite, Baby-Boomer generation by older Nixonite Drug War warriors like Queensland Premier, Bjelke-Petersen. It was a misuse of drugs policy which greatly worsened drug problems, bringing with it American-style organised crime. As the subtitle suggests, Marijuana Australiana relies significantly on 'alternative' sources, and I trawl the waters of popular culture, looking for songs, posters, comics and underground magazines to produce an 'underground' history of cannabis in Australia. This 'pop' approach is balanced with a hard-edged, quantitative analysis of the size of the marijuana market, the movement of price, and the seizure figures in the section called 'History By Numbers'. As Alfred McCoy notes, we need to understand drugs as commodities. It is only through a detailed understanding of the drug trade that the deeper secrets of this underground world can be revealed. In this section, I present an economic history of the cannabis market and formulate three laws of the market.
