Altérité et stéréotype en littérature : les enjeux de la représentation de l'« Indienne » et de l'Immigrant dans une perspective pancanadienneLanouette, Frédéric January 2017 (has links)
Cette thèse de maîtrise propose une analyse discursive du stéréotype et de sa participation dans la rupture entre la réalité et la simulation tel qu’il apparaît dans deux romans et une nouvelle québécoises : Kuessipan de Naomi Fontaine, Le pavillon des miroirs de Sergio Kokis et « Base de négociation » de Jean Dion. Ses objectifs principaux sont d’abord la mise en place d’une base théorique alliant la compréhension du stéréotype en tant que phénomène diaphragmatique de Daniel Castillo Durante et les principales théories sur la relation entre le sujet et le réel/la réalité, puis la mise en application de ces théories sur les récits étudiés. Notre cadre théorique comprend l’étude de la relation ontologique de Buber, les recherches sur la simulation et le simulacre de Baudrillard, celle portant sur l’image de Serge Gruzinski ainsi que de multiples études sur le réel, autant d’un point de vue sensoriel (Palo Alto) que social (Guy Debord, Walter Lippmann). Cette thèse veut montrer l’étendue de la mainmise du stéréotype dans le discours des figures de l’« Indienne » et de l’Immigrant pour ensuite présenter les techniques utilisées par les altérités discursives afin de remettre en question ladite mainmise.

Poétique des possibles par des œuvres littéraires d'auteures innues dans le discours social québécoisDe Laissardière, Céline 16 December 2020 (has links)
Cette recherche porte sur la production d’un discours singulier, saisi dans le champ littéraire d’auteures autochtones au Québec, dans la compréhension de dynamiques de création et de reconnaissance de nouveaux imaginaires. Le point de départ de cette recherche est l’étude de la formation et de la consolidation d’un discours qui se veut singulier dans l’interaction avec les autres discours en présence — soulevant des questions de rapports de pouvoir. L’analyse discursive vise ainsi à faire valoir certaines des lignes de force du discours de la relation au territoire produit par la nation innue dans le discours social québécois, analysé au travers d’oeuvres de quatre écrivaines innues Marie-Andrée Gill, Naomi Fontaine, Natasha Kanapé Fontaine et Joséphine Bacon. Le registre de l’intime, révélé au cours du terrain auprès de la poétesse Marie-Andrée Gill, a composé un second corpus d’analyse. Il est alors question d’un déplacement de regard de l’objet d’étude dans le dévoilement du processus créatif qui s’articule dans une compréhension du soi pour tendre vers le commun. L’analyse transdiscursive avance finalement l’idée d’une position littéraire nommée poétique des possibles, qui se comprend comme un changement de paradigme et qui se caractérise par une approche décoloniale. Mots-clés : littérature; autochtone; Innu; analyse discursive; relation au territoire; poétique des possibles; décolonisation; Marie-Andrée Gill; Natasha Kanapé Fontaine; Joséphine Bacon; Naomi Fontaine. / This study delves into the production of singular discourse in the literary field of First Nations women writers in Quebec, in understanding the dynamics of creation and recognition of new imaginaries. The starting point of this research is the formation and consolidation of a singular discourse in interaction with other discourses — raising power relations issues. The discursive analysis focus on the discourse of the relationship to the territory produced by the Innu nation in Quebec social discourse, analyzed through the works of four Innu authors Marie-Andrée Gill, Naomi Fontaine, Natasha Kanapé Fontaine, and Joséphine Bacon. The register of intimacy, revealed during the fieldwork with the poetess Marie-Andrée Gill, shifted the focus of this study. This second corpus of analysis laid the groundwork for an enquire into the creative process that is articulated in an understanding of the self to tend towards the common. Lastly, the transdiscursive analysis advances the idea of a singular literary position named poetics of possibilities, a paradigm shift, which is characterized by an approach of decolonization. Keywords : Literature; First Nations; Innu; Discursive Analysis; Relationship to the Territory; Poetics of Possibilities; Decolonization; Marie-Andrée Gill; Natasha Kanapé Fontaine; Joséphine Bacon; Naomi Fontaine.

A cognitive analysis of similes in the book of HoseaPohlig, J. N. 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (DLitt (Ancient Studies))--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. / This study accounts for the forms and functions of the similes in the Book of Hosea. It proposes
new tools for textual criticism, biblical interpretation, and understanding Biblical Hebrew (BH)
worldview.
Chapter One presents the task we have chosen for ourselves, its nature, some obstacles from other
areas of scholarship, and the foundational notions of embodiment and Prototype Theory.
Chapter Two presents principles drawn from Cognitive Semantics and Cognitive Syntax. A
weakened version of the Lakoff-Johnson conceptual metaphor theory is adopted, and the key
notions of embodiment and judgments of prototypicality are presented. Elements of Conceptual
Blending are presented and adapted for simile analysis. Finally, text-based differences between
metaphors and similes are discussed.
Chapter Three presents cognitive cultural constructs of Strauss and Quinn: cultural schemas,
cultural exemplars, cultural models, and cultural themes. Strauss and Quinn’s conclusions about
metaphors’ use in everyday speech are shown to agree with our postulation of speaker assessment
of the hearer’s ability to process utterances before they are produced. This postulation allows us to
erect one part of a theory of simile.
Chapter Three then integrates metaphor with the Strauss-Quinn cultural meaning model, and then
with Boroditsky’s Weak Structuring view of metaphor. The effect is to provide a reasonable basis,
amenable to empirical investigation, for the investigation of both metaphor and simile. Finally, the
notions of embodiment and prototypicality are applied to the Strauss-Quinn model.
Chapter Four presents various assumptions and conclusions that are later used to analyze Hosea’s
similes. These include: (1) elements of Floor’s (2004a) model of Information Structure for BH
narrative, with modifications and additions for poetry; (2) three cognitive types of similes in Hosea,
posited for working purposes; (3) an adaptation of the conceptual blending apparatus to similes; (4)
hypotheses to account for the distribution of similes versus that of metaphors in BH poetry, and to
account for patterned differences in how various kinds of concepts are combined and manipulated;
(5) an integration of these patterns with the three simile types; and (6) correlation of the cultural
constructs of cultural schema, cultural theme, and cultural model with Hosea’s similes and
metaphors. Chapter Five presents a number of scholarly views of the Book of Hosea, and characterizes the
principal authorities cited in the next chapter.
Chapter Six deductively applies all the foregoing theory to an examination of Hosea’s similes.
Other observations are made inductively: (1) kinaesthetic image schemas’ role in Hosea’s poetry;
(2) systematic difference in the use of similes versus metaphors in image elaboration; and (3)
Information Structure’s role in simile analysis.
Chapter Seven summarizes this study’s research and conclusions concerning, e.g., (1) the criteria
for accounting for the embodiment and judgments of prototypicality characterizing Hosea’s similes;
(2) the dependence of Hosea and his audience upon knowledge of themselves and their environment
for their view of YHWH; and (3) the aid brought by a cognitive theory of similes in the task of
textual criticism.
Chapter Eight discusses prospects for further research and possible implications for translating
Hosea’s similes and metaphors.

Religion Drag: The Relevance of “Critical Religion” and Queer Theory to Canadian Law and Religious FreedomDesmarais, Gabrielle 15 January 2014 (has links)
This dissertation analyses the use of the word “religion” in Canadian law and theorises the consequences of its use for the legal protection of religious movements in Canada. Chapter One establishes the problems of the word “religion” in academic discourse by providing an overview of work in the field of critical religion. This dissertation considers whether the critiques of the term “religion” by scholars working within critical religion are equally relevant when considering the role of religion in human rights law. Chapter Two turns an investigative eye toward Canadian case law using the word “religion”, from Chaput v Romain (1959) to Alberta v Hutterian Brethren of Wilson Colony (2009). The analysis highlights how the use of “religion” in Canadian law does indeed reflect academic concerns. Chapter Three uses queer theory to speculate the consequences of an unstable concept of religion for the protection of religious freedom, especially as it pertains to new religious movements. Judith Butler’s notions of performativity and drag are applied to theorise the performance of “religion” and its outcomes. Some suggestions for how to proceed conclude the dissertation.

A Pedagogy of Holistic Media Literacy: Reflections on Culture Jamming as Transformative Learning and HealingStasko, Carly 14 December 2009 (has links)
This qualitative study uses narrative inquiry (Connelly & Clandinin, 1988, 1990, 2001) and self-study to investigate ways to further understand and facilitate the integration of holistic philosophies of education with media literacy pedagogies. As founder and director of the Youth Media Literacy Project and a self-titled Imagitator (one who agitates imagination), I have spent over 10 years teaching media literacy in various high schools, universities, and community centres across North America. This study will focus on my own personal practical knowledge (Connelly & Clandinin, 1982) as a culture jammer, educator and cancer survivor to illustrate my original vision of a ‘holistic media literacy pedagogy’. This research reflects on the emergence and impact of holistic media literacy in my personal and professional life and also draws from relevant interdisciplinary literature to challenge and synthesize current insights and theories of media literacy, holistic education and culture jamming.
