Die Dissertation untersucht das denkmalpflegerische Wirken des sächsischen Oberlandbaumeisters Carl Moritz Haenel im Kontext der Theorien, Diskurse sowie der Praxis und Probleme der noch nicht institutionalisierten Denkmalpflege des 19. Jahrhunderts an zahlreichen Beispielen von Restaurierungsprojekten wie dem Zwinger in Dresden, der Albrechtsburg in Meißen und der Burg Kriebstein.

Cette recherche s’articule autour de la notion de « biofiction » dont l’importance est expliquée à partir des notions de « biographie », « hagiographie », « autobiographie », mais aussi de « récit mythique », d’« autofiction » et de « vulgarisation ». La biofiction, une fiction biographique, permet d'aborder des phénomènes littéraires contemporains dans lesquels l'exemplarité de certaines figures est centrale. Le corpus littéraire à l’étude se compose de bio\hagio fictions postmodernes sur la visionnaire du XIIe siècle Hildegarde de Bingen et le peintre baroque de la fin du XVIe et début du XVIIe siècle Le Caravage (Nobécourt, 2013; Tancredi, 2012; Fernandez, 2002; Haenel, 2019). Comment (et pourquoi) des auteurs abordent-il aujourd'hui selon une perspective transculturelle et transhistorique de telles figures? À partir de quatre romans qui (ré)adaptent la vie de ces deux figures, je montrerai de quelle façon l’exemplarité et la singularité de leur existence est cristallisée par le roman et peut franchir les carcans du « biographique » en leur permettant de passer de personnage de fiction à lieu de mémoire (Nora, 1993). Pour ce faire, il sera question de sonder les spécificités de l’écriture biographique et hagiographique et le cas du personnage de roman tel que considéré dans les théories de la narratologie (Dosse, 2011) : qu’est-ce qui forme le fictif, de quelle manière se met-t-il en opposition (et en adhésion) avec le biographique? L'analyse du corpus se concentrera aussi sur des éléments narratologiques qui sont souvent mis de l'avant dans la recherche-création en biofiction : des expérimentations narratives où s’enchaînent et s’alternent les narrations extra, intra, hétéro et méta diégétique, ainsi que les focalisations interne, externe et zéro. Il sera question de démontrer de quelle manière les jeux narratifs servent le récit biofictif et quelles stratégies et méthodologies les auteurs utilisent pour conférer à leurs romans crédibilité, singularité et légitimité biographique. Ce mémoire a pour but de disséquer, sous plusieurs angles, (littéraire, sociologique, narratologique, médiatique, culturel, historique) la biofiction comme forme (Viart, 2001) dans toute son hybridité, telle qu'elle a été pratiquée (dans les pays occidentaux) au cours des dernières années (2000 à 2020). / This research revolves around the notion of "biofiction", the importance of which is explained from the notions of "biography", "hagiography", "autobiography", but also "mythical narrative", "autofiction" and "popularization". Biofiction, a biographical fiction, makes it possible to approach contemporary literary phenomena in which the exemplarity of certain figures is central. The literary corpus under study consists of postmodern bio\hagio fictions about the 12th century visionary Hildegard of Bingen and the late 16th - early 17th century Baroque painter Caravaggio (Nobécourt, 2013; Tancredi, 2012; Fernandez, 2002; Haenel, 2019). How (and why) do authors today approach such figures from a transcultural and transhistorical perspective? Based on four novels that (re)adapt the lives of these two figures, I will show how the exemplarity and singularity of their existence is crystallized by the novel and can cross the shackles of the "biographical" by allowing them to pass from fictional character to place of memory (Nora, 1993). To do this, we will probe the specificities of biographical and hagiographical writing and the case of the novel character as considered in the theories of narratology (Dosse, 2011): what forms the fictional, in what way does it stand in opposition (and in adhesion) with the biographical? The analysis of the corpus will also focus on narratological elements that are often put forward in biofiction research-creation: narrative experiments where extra, intra, hetero and meta diegetic narratives, as well as internal, external and zero focus, are linked and alternated. It will demonstrate how narrative games serve the biofiction narrative, and what strategies and methodologies the authors use to give their novels credibility, singularity, and biographical legitimacy. This dissertation aims to dissect, from several angles (literary, sociological, narratological, media, cultural, historical) biofiction as a form (Viart, 2001) in all its hybridity, as it has been practiced (in Western countries) in recent years (2000 to 2020).

This dissertation, All Things Commune: The Communal Imaginary in Twenty-First-Century French Fiction & Poetry, is animated by two fundamental questions: How can life be led differently, together? And, what is French literature’s radical political potential? Over the course of this project, I argue that twenty-first-century French literature is a site of radical political imagination, and, in certain cases, a veritable form of radical political practice. Through close readings of works by a diverse set of authors – including Jean Rouaud, Yannick Haenel, Virginie Despentes, and Jean-Marie Gleize – I reveal a countercurrent of twenty-first-century French literature bound up in a radical politics that is invested in imagining alternative forms of community that are autonomous from the French state, capitalism, governance, and traditional political structures. I read these literary works in light of theories of community developed by collectives such as Tiqqun and Le Comité invisible and critical theorists like Giorgio Agamben, Jean-Luc Nancy, and Jacques Rancière. All Things Commune demonstrates how reading these authors and theorists together reveals a shared imaginary of alternative communal life and radical Leftist politics, which I place under the rubric of destituent power. All Things Commune insists on the profound continuities between contemporary French literature, history, and politics. Overall, this project questions the narrow political frameworks through which twenty-first-century French literature continues to be read and demonstrates how radical politics appear in unexpected ways in a period of literature sometimes reduced to the reactionary or the apolitical.
