71	Érotisme pudique et dissolution des limites dans Hamaguri d’Aki Shimazaki ; suivi de Probablement personne Bérard, Marie-Jeanne 08 1900 (has links) Recourant volontiers au voilement ou à un jeu de paravents, l’écriture pudique est marquée par la précaution – souvent troublante en soi – d’éviter de provoquer le trouble chez son lecteur. Hamaguri d’Aki Shimazaki se construit autour d’un noyau apparemment contradictoire qui transcende le tabou de l’inceste. L’étude de ce roman, mis en parallèle avec L’amant de Duras et Les belles endormies de Kawabata, permet de mettre en relief un érotisme pudique dont la principale caractéristique consiste en une remise en cause de son principe transgressif, découlant de la dissolution de la limite tracée par l’interdit. Dans un phénomène de coïncidence des opposés, l’érotisme pudique aplanit le rapport dualiste entre des éléments donnés comme inconciliables : chair et esprit, Éros et Thanatos, licite et illicite. Empreint de ce type d’érotisme, Probablement personne met en scène une jeune femme et son professeur de peinture sumi-e, de quarante ans son aîné. Une passion indéfinissable, à la lisière de la hantise, les lie de plus en plus étroitement l’un à l’autre. Leur relation se joue dans le non-dit, les regards, la gestuelle; elle se révèle graduellement à travers des traits d’encre sur le papier et la symbolique de la fleur : fascinante, cueillie, flétrie… Leur drame se joue dans la zone grise entre ce qui a eu lieu et n’a jamais eu lieu. / With its active usage of veils and folding screens, modesty writing is characterized by a certain precaution – often unsettling in and of itself – that is intended to avoid exciting readers. Aki Shimazaki’s Hamaguri is constructed on such a seemingly contradictory core that transcends the taboo of incest. A comparative analysis of this novel using Duras’ The Lover and Kawabata’s The House of the Sleeping Beauties allows one to uncover a certain erotic modesty, whose defining characteristic is that it undermines transgression when the boundaries of the forbidden are broken down. In a phenomenon where opposites collide, erotic modesty bridges the dualistic gap that exists between elements once considered incompatible: body and soul, Eros and Thanatos, that which is permitted and the forbidden. Infused with this particular form of eroticism, Probablement personne acquaints readers with a young woman and her sumi-e painting professor, who is forty years her senior. An incommunicable bond develops, bordering on haunting, and ties the two closer together. Their relationship transpires in the unspoken, looks as well as gestures, gradually unveiling itself through strokes of ink on paper and floral symbolism: captivating, picked, wilted. Their drama unfolds in the grey area between what really happens, and what does not.

72	Flykten : en tolkning av exil / The Escape : an interpretation of exile Niskanen, Anoo January 2013 (has links) The main purpose of this thesis is to discuss what exile writing is and who can be seen as an exile writer. If the word “exile” is related to forced dislocation, like Paul Tabori and Sopia A. McClennen describes it, who can be viewed as an exile writer? Is Anders Olsson’s definition of an exile writer acceptable or not? Could the The Escape, a future story about exiled Northern Europeans in Myanmar, be classified as exile literature? Another purpose with this text is to describe how a story about exile can be made realistic and tangible to a reader who has not experienced exile. How can the exile experience be shown in a text? The third major aim with this thesis is to discuss how an ethnographic study differs from a fictive novel about another culture. Is an academic text more close to reality than fiction and what is reality anyway? Is it possible to make a mix of an academic study and a fictive novel?

73	L’invention de la rencontre : contrat et transaction dans les représentations littéraires de l’échange prostitutionnel Brassard, Léonore 08 1900 (has links) Cette thèse porte sur la représentation littéraire de l’échange prostitutionnel dans son rapport ambigu au contrat, à l’intimité et à la rencontre. Elle est basée sur une analyse de textes de Villiers de L’Isle-Adam, Maupassant, Flaubert, Arcan, Duras, et du tableau Olympia de Manet. Dans un premier temps, je m’intéresse à un motif abordé par certains textes du corpus, et devenu lieu commun, celui qui fait de la prostitution la métaphore et l’extension du capitalisme en tant que ce dernier « réifie le monde », et j’en montre les divers déploiements. Dans un second temps, j’analyse des œuvres qui mettent de l’avant l’échange prostitutionnel en reprenant un autre rapport qu’il entretient avec le marché (intimement lié au premier) : celui de la clôture de la relation induite par le contrat. Les textes à l’étude problématisent cette rencontre « annulée ». En cela, je m’arrête d’une part sur l’invention d’un « dépassement » du contrat vers l’intimité, et de l’autre sur la mise en scène, rejouée dans l’échange prostitutionnel, d’un empêchement de la relation. Comment la prostitution figure-t-elle en tant que métaphore péjorative de la vénalité ? Comment devient-elle par ailleurs le lieu de la répétition d’une impossible rencontre sexuelle « véritable » ? Alimentée par ces questions, cette thèse analyse les représentations de l’échange prostitutionnel dans la littérature comme lieu paradigmatique du contrat, paradoxalement travaillé de l’intérieur par l’invention d’une rencontre toujours occupée à ne pas se faire. / This thesis focuses on the literary representation of prostitutional exchange in its ambiguous relationship to the concepts of contract, intimacy and encounter. It is based on an analysis of texts by Villiers de L'Isle-Adam, Maupassant, Flaubert, Arcan and Duras, as well as Manet's painting, Olympia. First, I focus on a theme addressed by some writings within the corpus which has become commonplace: the idea of prostitution as the too wide extension of capitalism, as it “reifies the world.” I show the various deployments of this metaphor. In a second step, I analyze literary works that put forward the prostitutional exchange by returning to another relationship that it maintains with the market (intimately linked to the first): that of the closure and the clarity of the rapport allowed by the contract. The texts offered for study herein problematize this “cancelled” meeting. In this, I address on the one hand the development of “surpassing” of the contract towards intimacy, and on the other, on the staging, replayed in the prostitutional exchange, of an impediment of the relationship. How does prostitution become the pejorative metaphor for venality? How does it also become the place of repetition of an impossible “real” sexual encounter? These queries spark others to unfold through the thesis, in that the latter questions the prostitutional exchange in literature as a paradigmatic place of the contract, paradoxically developed from within by the invention of an encounter constantly yearning to be inexistant. littérature rencontre capitalisme Villiers de L’Isle-Adam contrat Literature Prostitution Encounter Capitalism Villiers de L’Isle-Adam Nelly Arcan Gustave Flaubert Marguerite Duras Édouard Manet Contract

75	Écritures dramatiques et romanesques des XXe et XXIe siècles à l’épreuve des arts non verbaux. Modèles et dispositifs / Dramatic and Novelistic Writings of 20th and 21st centuries in relation with non-verbal arts. Models, Patterns and Devices Rascle, Floriane 09 December 2016 (has links) L’observation de la présence des arts non verbaux au cœur des œuvres de Marguerite Duras, Lawrence Durrell, Elfriede Jelinek et Péter Nádas nous invite à considérer la musicalité et l’iconicité des écritures dramatiques et romanesques contemporaines en termes de modèle mais aussi de dispositif. Des phénomènes de dialogue, d’hybridation, de polyphonie, de dialogisme, d’intermédialité, de ce que Jacques Rancière nomme « l’impurification » au cœur d’un « régime esthétique de l’art » révèlent les rêves, désirs et pulsions du verbal pour d’autres arts, mais aussi pour des représentations à l’artisticité discutable. La fabrique d’un corps organique, sexuel, érotique voire pornographique par les écritures contemporaines nous convie à envisager le métissage entre art et non-art en termes de dispositif performatif et à proposer une lecture queer des œuvres. À l’heure du postmodernisme, le recours des écritures au non-verbal se donne à lire à la fois comme la manifestation d’une crise du logos et de la représentation et comme l’enjeu d’une rénovation esthétique et politique de la littérature. Qu’ils modélisent le verbal ou fassent brutalement irruption et déchirure en son sein, les arts non verbaux concourent au renouvellement des formes littéraires, mais aussi à leur politicité et au renouveau de la fiction. Cette étude ambitionne donc d’explorer le carrefour esthético-politique que dessinent, entre le milieu du XXe siècle et ce début de XXIe siècle, les relations plurielles entre les arts verbaux et non verbaux dans l’art verbal par excellence, la littérature. / The observation of the presence of non verbal arts within the works of Marguerite Duras, Lawrence Durrell, Elfriede Jelinek and Péter Nádas leads us to examine the musicality and the iconicity of contemporary dramatic and novelistic writings in terms of model, pattern and devices. Dialogue, hybridization, polyphony, dialogism, intermediality, and what Jacques Rancière calls “impurification” within the “Aesthetic Regime of Art”, display the dreams, desires and longings of verbal art for other arts, but also for representations whose artistic content is arguable. The fact that contemporary writings produce an organic, sexual, erotic, even pornographic body invites us to focus on the interactions between arts and non-arts with regard to their performative devices and to propose a queer reading of the works. In Postmodernism, the fact that writings draw on non verbal forms can be understood as the expression of the failure of Logos – both language and reason – and of representation. Moreover, what is also at stake is an aesthetic and political reform of literature. Whether they tend to impose new verbal models or break into them, non verbal arts contribute not only to reshape literary forms but also to emphasize their political substance and renew their fictional content. This dissertation aims to investigate the crossroads between aesthetics and politics that the various relationships between verbal and non-verbal arts display, from mid-20th century to the beginning of the 21st century, within Literature, the verbal art par excellence.

76	Women adrift : familial and cultural alienation in the personal narratives of Francophone women Masters, Karen Beth 11 1900 (has links) This study analyzes the experience of alienation from family and culture as portrayed in the personal narratives of francophone women. The authors appearing in this study are Assia Djebar and Marie Cardinal, from Algeria, Mariama Bâ and Ken Bugul, from Senegal, Marguerite Duras and Kim Lefèvre, from Vietnam, Calixthe Beyala, from Cameroon, Gabrielle Roy, from Canada, and Maryse Condé, from Guadeloupe. Alienation is deconstructed into the domains of blood, money, land, religion, education and history. The authors’ experiences of alienation in each domain are classified according to severity and cultural normativity. The study seeks to determine the manner in which alienation manifests in each domain, and to identify factors which aid or hinder recovery. Alienation in the domain of blood occurs as a result of warfare, illness, racism, ancestral trauma, and the rites of passage of menarche, loss of virginity, and menopause. Money-related alienation is linked to endemic classism, often caused by colonial influence. The authors experienced varying degrees of economic vulnerability to men, depending upon cultural and familial norms. Colonialism, warfare and environmental depending upon cultural and familial norms. Colonialism, warfare and environmental degradation all contribute to alienation in the domain of land. Women were found to be more susceptible to alienation in the domain of religion due to patriarchal religious constructs. In the domain of education, it was found that some alienation is inevitable for all students. Despite its inherent drawbacks, education provides tools for empowerment which are crucial for overcoming alienation. Alienation in the domain of history was found to hinder recovery due to infiltration of past trauma into the present, while empowerment in this domain fosters optimism and future-oriented thinking. Each domain offers opportunities for empowerment, and it is necessary to work within the domains to create a safe haven for recovery. Eight of the nine authors experienced at least a partial recovery from alienation. This was accomplished via cathartic release of negative emotions. Catharsis is achieved by shedding tears, talking, or writing about the negative experiences. The personal narrative was found to be especially helpful in promoting healing both for the author and the reading audience. / Classics and World Languages / D. Litt. et Phil.
