Partant de l'influence de la photographie victorienne de Julia Margaret Cameron, de la photographie et du cinéma d'avant-garde des années 1920 et de la production photographique de Virginia Woolf elle-même (albums de Monk's House), cette étude pose l'hypothèse que l'écriture de Virginia Woolf s'en inspire pour devenir à la fois photographique et cinématographique, photo-cinématographique. Explorant le texte comme dispositif complexe, nous analysons la plasticité de sa prose à travers motifs et stratégies de représentation afin de voir dans quelle mesure photographie et cinéma réforment et reforment le texte woolfien, dans ses modalités formelles et esthétiques, ainsi que dans sa portée éthique et politique. Après avoir replacé l'œuvre dans son contexte moderniste et souligné l'importance du rôle joué par la Hogarth Press, qui permet à l'écrivaine d'intégrer des images en texte, nous mettons en évidence le cinématisme de ses œuvres à travers l'exploration photo-filmique de la ville moderne et la structuration en montage du flux de conscience. Nous considérons ensuite le battement anachronique des fluctuations temporelles qui structurent l'œuvre dans ses phénomènes mémoriels de hantise et de survivance, l'image faisant retour en texte dans une durée contractée (instantané) ou dilatée (défilé d'images), à la fois personnelle et intime, collective et historique. Nous envisageons enfin le texte comme un espace de négociation subversif où l'image permet à l'auteure de prendre position "poéthiquement", alors que sont mis en scène des personnages atypiques à l'identité inassignable. / This study contends that Virginia Woolf's writing draws its inspiration from Julia Margaret Cameron's Victorian photographs, the 1920s avant-garde photography and cinema, and Woolf's own Monk's House Albums, making her work at once photographic and cinematographic, or photo-cinematographic. Exploring the Woolfian text as a complex representation device, I examine the plasticity of its prose and narrative strategies to show how photography and cinema help to shape its aesthetic, but also ethical and political contents. This thesis first places Woolf's works in their modernist context and underlines the part played by the Hogarth Press, enabling Woolf to include images in her texts. I then shed light on the kinematic aspect of her work by analysing the photo-filmic exploration of the London scene and the montage of stream of consciousness. The third part probes into the anachronic rhythm of fluctuating time, emphasising the haunting aspects of memory through surviving images that condense their temporality in the instant (snapshot) or unroll it (streaming images) ; thus time achieves a personal and intimate, but also collective and historical dimension. Finally, I look at the Woolfian text as a subversive place of negotiation inhabited by eccentric characters with elusive identities and in which images help the author to make a "poethical" stand.

Lasar Segall s lithographs inspired by the short story A gentle creature, by Fyodor Dostoevsky, show that this relationship is still relevant in the twentieth century. The objective of this research is to analyse Dostoevsky s short story and Segall s lithographs and observe the language that each of these artists used to create characters who express their own inner world. Based on the concept of self-awareness developed by Mikhail Bakhtin, we will observe the construction of the short story s main character, which is a man who is distant from reality but finally realizes the truth about himself. We will also discuss the way in which Lasar Segall, who at the time was part of the German Expressionist movement, uses Dostoevsky s text to produce his lithographs, or more specifically, we will analyze the graphic elements used by him to convey the inner world of the characters and the tragic aspect found in the short story. / A relação entre a literatura e as artes visuais é muito antiga e pode ser observada em recriações como as imagens feitas por Delacroix para Fausto, de Goethe, e por Flaxman para A divina comédia, de Dante. As litografias de Lasar Segall, inspiradas na novela Uma criatura dócil, de Fiódor Dostoiévski, demonstram que essa relação continua de forma marcante no século XX. O objetivo desta pesquisa é, a partir da análise dialógica entre a referida novela de Dostoiévski e as litografias de Segall, observar a linguagem que cada um desses artistas utilizou para criar personagens que expressassem seu próprio mundo interior. Nesse processo investigativo, será examinado como ocorre a passagem de uma linguagem para outra, tendo, como fundamentação teórica, os estudos da Intermidialidade. Partindo do conceito de autoconsciência elaborado por Mikhail Bakhtin, observaremos a construção da personagem principal da novela, que é um homem que se encontra no limiar, bem como sua trajetória, que passa pela confissão e pelo arrependimento, para, finalmente, chegar à verdade sobre si mesmo. Discutiremos, ainda, a maneira como Lasar Segall, que nesta época fazia parte do movimento Expressionista alemão, utiliza o texto-fonte de Dostoiévski para produzir suas litografias, ou mais especificamente, iremos analisar os elementos gráficos por ele utilizados para transmitir, imageticamente, o mundo interior das personagens e o caráter trágico encontrados na novela.

This essay analyzes Mette Edvardsens performative work oslo, which usually falls under the label of dance and choreography. The performance is in many ways making use of and staging language though, so the aim here is to examine how the linguistic and textual material of the performance is enacted in relation to its mediating devices and vice versa. The essay is making use of the media theory by David J. Bolter and Richard A. Grusin to show that no medium stands by itself but always exists and works in a web-like relation to other medias. Language will therefore not be seen as isolated but always interacting with other mediating instances. Their theory will also stand as a base in trying to track different medias ideological origin. With inspiration from actor-network theory, this essay tries to map the performance as a network made up by components. The components will be understood, through material- semiotic theorists as Donna Haraway and Karen Barad, to exhibit agency. That is, they are seen to be doing something, they affect the network in a way which is beyond the control and possible intention by an author. The essay shows that Edvardsens performance is being enacted by its network, wherein the author or choreographer is one but not the only actor. The essay also examines how we come to understand a body or and object for what they are, how we define their borders, and will argue that borders are not static but are open for negotiation.

This essay aims to investigate intermedial studies and to analyze the intermedial narrative that appears out of the cooperation between music, lyrics and song cover of the Swedish progressive djent metal band Vildhjarta. The narrative that appears out of the intermedial cooperation between the medias is then analyzed with literal studies and narratological concepts to put intermedial studies into a bigger context. This essay also explores different intertextual connections to other works of literature which shows is quite a lot. Since previous research about progressive metal and the band Vildhjarta is practically nonexistent research from the closely related genres of black metal and death metal have been applied to create a new base of previous research. The research in this essay concludes that Vildhjarta, in sometimes complex ways, use different medias to create and amplify the narrative and they also include a lot of different intertextual connections. / Den här uppsatsen undersöker det narrativ som uppstår i det intermediala samspelet mellan musik, låttext och låtomslag. Narrativet undersöks sedan med hjälp av litteraturvetenskapliga och narratologiska begrepp för att sätta in den intermediala analysen i ett större kontextualiserande perspektiv. I uppsatsen undersöks även intertextuella kopplingar och det framkommer flera referenser och kopplingar till andra litterära verk. Då forskningsläget kring genren men även bandet i princip är icke existerande har i stället forskning om black metal och death metal använts för att skapa ett användbart forskningsläge. I resultatet framkommer det att Vildhjarta på ett komplext vis använder olika medier för att skapa och förstärka narrativet men även att de olika låtarna innehåller mängder med intertextuella kopplingar.
