The pastel medium communicating sexuality and promiscuity in late nineteenth-century ParisBenartzy, Adee S. 01 May 2012 (has links)
Throughout the history of art, the pastel medium has been considered a medium of secondary interest. Despite its pulsating textures, vibrant colors, and unique receptivity to touch, this medium has been recognized above all for its swiftness in stroke and subsequent ability of the artist to record images of fleeting moments and ideas almost instantaneously. The focus on the advantageous rapidity of the pastel, however, hindered the pastel medium's potential as a mere preliminary technique to working with grander mediums, such as oil paint, thus failing to recognize the prominence of pastel in capturing character. This research endeavor focuses on a very specific era with comparably high usage of pastel-- late nineteenth-century Paris--and the distinctive characteristic that defines said era--the hyper-sexuality of the Parisian prostitute. The eminent presence of prostitution and the consequential iconography of female sexuality in late nineteenth-century Paris defined the world of French Bohemia and seeped into the artistic exchange of the era. Although holding a traditionally subsidiary position to other historically primary mediums, the pastel medium prevailed in communicating the sexuality, sensuality, and promiscuity of the sinful female in Paris at the close of the century. The pastel works of prominent artists in the nightlife milieu such as Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Edgar Degas which revolve around the theme of prostitution serve as key illustrations of the distinctive ability of the ephemeral medium to capture the mood and personality--and therefore the sensual quintessence--of its subject. Through contextual and visual analysis, this research endeavor thus ultimately aims to lift the traditionally secondary pastel medium to one of impressive proportions, emphasizing its unique advantages and raising its overall credence.

Les changements culturels et religieux selon le sociologue Edgar Morin et la communication de la Parole de DieuMénard, Jean-Guy 23 December 2021 (has links)
Les changements culturels et religieux selon le sociologue Edgar Morin et la communication de la Parole de Dieu s'intéressent principalement aux changements des décennies soixante et soixante-dix en Occident. La formulation de la question de fond est: à quelles conditions peut-on annoncer la Bonne Nouvelle à travers les médias de ce temps? L'auteur met en relief les changements, indique les repères, s'intéresse à l'esprit des temps nouveaux, développe des concepts pour la communication médiatique et la mission apostolique dans la littérature paulinienne et met en parallèle les questions de la communication et celles qui concernent la pastorale.

El sentido de la antipoesía en el Perfil de la materia de Edgar Guzmán JorqueraFlores Núñez, Ana María 08 April 2014 (has links)
La buena poesía es siempre contenedora de una vitalidad y una significación que
supera el tiempo y los cambios de época, pero sobre todo, largamente el silencio
circunstancial de los críticos. Este es el caso de Edgar Guzmán Jorquera, arequipeño nacido
en la Punta de Bombón, en la provincia de Islay, en octubre de 1935.
Si bien fue considerado como uno de los grandes poetas de la década del 50, por su
metáforas llenas de sueños de la mente (tal como las calificara Raúl Bueno) y de
reflexiones filosóficas, el mérito de Guzmán es haber forjado desde sí mismo y de manera
solitaria, una poética que concilie la forma (no necesariamente tradicional) de la poesía, y
los fundamentos del pensamiento analítico respecto al Hombre y su mundo.
En Perfil de la materia, Edgar Guzmán propone una fórmula «antipoética» que actúe
como una nueva construcción del discurso estético, con la finalidad de generar un nuevo
texto que despersonalice y deforme nuestra realidad para la instauración de una nueva. Es
decir, que su poesía pretende la unificación del hombre (y la materialidad que lo circunda)
junto con la revaloración de una sociedad que puede ser mejor.
Con la presente investigación se trata de establecer una puerta de entrada y una guía
estructural para el encuentro íntimo con la poesía de Guzmán. A través de un estudio lúcido
de los sentidos y técnicas fundamentales utilizados en su obra, así como las definiciones e
ideologías presentes en su poesía, encontraremos una manifestación evidente del fenómeno
de la intertextualidad y un trabajo estético orientado a las visiones universales, donde la
metafísica, la filosofía, la ciencia y el arte, se conjugan dentro de una propuesta unitaria que
convierte al lector en causa y efecto del fenómeno poético.
He ahí la magia y la vitalidad de la buena poesía. / Tesis

My Burning Glances : The Male and queer gaze in three short stories by Edgar Allan Poe / My Burning Glances : Male och queer gaze i tre noveller av Edgar Allan PoeFaxén Sporrong, Karin January 2024 (has links)
The purpose of this essay is to show the narrator’s use of the male and the queer gaze in three short stories by Edgar Allan Poe: “Berenice: A Tale” (1835), “The Man that was Used Up: A Tale of the Late Bugaboo and Kickapoo Campaign” (1839) and ”The Man of the Crowd” (1845). Through close reading of the stories, I show how the different gazes work, how they are used in the stories and what they lead to. I relate how the visual perspectives function to how narrative development in the stories depend on the gaze, suggesting that whereas the male gaze in the stories by Poe aids in creating violence and misogyny; the queer gaze on the other hand helps in creating alternative worlds, governed by curiosity, empathy and possibility. / Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att lyfta fram berättarens användning av the male och the queer gaze i tre noveller av Edgar Allan Poe: ”Berenice” (1835), ”Den förbrukade mannen” (1839) och ”Mannen i mängden” (1845). Med hjälp av närläsning belyser jag hur berättelsens utveckling och narrativ påverkas av perspektiven och dessa skilda sätt att se. Jag föreslår att medan the male gaze hos Poe bidrar till att skapa mörka och destruktiva teman, där våld och misogyni är framträdande element, the queer gaze finns konstant närvarande, skapande alternativa sätt att existera i en värld präglad av nyfikenhet, empati och möjlighet.

Économie de la perversité baudelairienne. Une lecture de Donner le temps de Jacques DerridaCotton Lizotte, Nicholas 08 1900 (has links)
Jacques Derrida n’a écrit qu’un seul ouvrage sur Baudelaire : Donner le temps I. La fausse monnaie (1991). Dans cette étude, il s’agit de préciser, notamment autour de la question de la perversité, les liens unissant le poète au philosophe en accordant une attention particulière aux textes « Le mauvais vitrier » (Baudelaire), « The Imp of the Perverse » (Edgar Poe), « La fausse monnaie » (Baudelaire) et Mémoires d’aveugle (Derrida). Imbriquées dans une logique de l’événement, les deux notions de perversité et de don peuvent s’éclairer mutuellement et ont des répercussions jusque dans les textes et pour la littérature elle-même. / Jacques Derrida only wrote one book on Baudelaire, entitled Given Time: I. Counterfeit Money (1991). With special focus on a number of other texts, including “The Bad Glazier” (Baudelaire), The Imp of the Perverse (Edgar Allan Poe), “Counterfeit Money” (Baudelaire) and Memoirs of the Blind (Derrida), this analysis clarifies the relations linking the poet to the philosopher, particularly with regard to the question of perversity, or rather, in Poe’s words, perverseness. Bound up in event logic, the two notions of perversity and gift can explain one another and their repercussions are far-reaching both in the texts and in literature itself.
