Prince des Ténèbres, Porteur de lumière : Une exploration des représentations du Diable en tant qu'ange déchu en France au XIXe siècleWalker, Emily 28 August 2015 (has links)
In this study, I explore four representations of the Devil as a fallen angel in nineteenth century France in order to better understand the way in which the artists at this time used the symbol of the Devil to express their viewpoints on the various social, political and cultural changes in France. In the first chapter, I provide a survey of the artistic development of the Devil, from his angelic roots in the Old Testament to his near disappearance during the Enlightenment. I examine the semantic difficulties when discussing the Devil, as well as the current literature on his philosophical, theological and cultural significance. The second chapter is dedicated to an in-depth analysis of the four works in which I situate the image within the artist’s larger body of work and then examine the physical representation of the Devil, the landscape in which he is found and the transitory moment of the fall depicted. In the third chapter I provide a historical context for these representations and demonstrate the way in which they reflect the political and cultural agitation in France at the time due to the multiple revolutions, changes in governing structure and advances in science and technology. Through this exploration of these four representations, I propose that the Devil provides unique insight as to the ongoing artistic conceptualisation and perceptions of the state of humanity in an increasingly modern world. / Graduate / walkerem@uvic.ca

Odilon Redon e Charles Baudelaire : diálogos interartes /Braz, Luíza Araujo January 2019 (has links)
Orientador: Maria Cláudia Rodrigues Alves / Resumo: Em 1889, o pintor Odilon Redon apresenta a seu editor um conjunto de pranchas com interpretações, tal como ele próprio denominaria, referentes a oito poemas da edição de 1868 d’As Flores do Mal de Charles Baudelaire e, ainda, a uma sugestão de capa ou frontispício para o livro. No presente trabalho, analisaremos os oito poemas selecionados e as nove gravuras propostas para acompanhá-los, publicadas pela primeira vez no portfólio Les Fleurs du Mal. Interprétations par Odilon Redon (1890). As produções do pintor, que constituem a parte pictural de nosso corpus principal, correspondem à sua primeira fase de produção, na qual o artista realizava gravuras denominadas Noirs, de temáticas soturnas e personagens habitantes do universo fantástico. Seu primeiro período artístico se encerra por volta de 1900, com o surgimento de sua segunda fase, que conta, em especial, com temas religiosos e mitológicos, retratados por meio de técnicas que permitiram a criação de obras repletas de cores vivas. Realizamos nosso estudo a partir da análise dos aspectos literário e pictural, por meio do confronto das duas arquiteturas textuais. Para tal, apoiamo-nos principalmente nas noções de paratexto literário/iconográfico de Gérard Genette (1987) e de transposição intersemiótica, apresentada por Claus Clüver no capítulo “Da transposição intersemiótica” e por Leo H. Hoek em “A transposição intersemiótica: por uma classificação pragmática”, ambos constituintes da coletânea de ensaios Poéticas do Visível...

In this study, we present the analyses of the eight selected poems and also of the nine pictures proposed to accompany them, first appeared in the portfolio Les Fleurs du Mal. Interprétations by Odilon Redon (1890). The painter's works, which constitute the pictorial portion of our main corpus, correspond to his first phase of production, in which the artist produced engravings titled Noirs, of somber themes, containing characters inhabitants of the fantastic realm. Redon’s first artistic period ends around 1900, with the emergence of his second phase, which particularly includes religious and mythological themes, portrayed through techniques that allowed the creation of works full of bright colors. We conducted our research from the analysis of the literary and pictorial aspects, confronting the two textual architectures. To this end, we rely primarily on the notions of literary/ iconographic paratext by Gérard Genette (1987) and intersemiotic transposition, presented by Claus Clüver in the chapter “Da transposição intersemiótica” and by Leo H. Hoek in “A transposição intersemiótica: por uma classificação pragmática”, both published in the compilation of essays Poéticas do Visível (2006), with the p...

Cette étude analyse les poèmes sélectionnés et les neuf estampes proposées pour les accompagner, d'abord publiées dans le portfolio Les Fleurs du Mal. Interprétations d'Odilon Redon (1890). Les productions du peintre, qui constituent la partie picturale de notre corpus principal, correspondent à sa première phase de production artistique, au cours de laquelle l'artiste a fait des gravures appelées Noirs, de thèmes sombres et de personnages de l'univers fantastique. La première phase finit vers 1900, avec l’émergence de sa deuxième période de production, où Redon travaille principalement avec des thèmes religieux et mythologiques basés sur des techniques qui lui ont permis de réaliser des œuvres pleines de couleurs vives. Nous avons mené notre étude à partir de l'analyse des aspects littéraire et pictural, en procédant à la confrontation des deux architectures textuelles. Pour ce faire, nous nous appuyons principalement sur les notions de paratexte littéraire/ iconographique de Gérard Genette (1987) et de transposition intersémiotique, présentées par Claus Clüver dans le chapitre «Sobre a transposição intersemiótica»; par Leo H. Hoek dans «A transposição intersemiótica:... (Résumé complet accès életronique ci-dessous) / Mestre

Walter Benjamin und die Kunst des Graphischen / Photo-Graphie, Malerei, GraphikMatsui, Takaoki 16 June 2008 (has links)
Als Bild- und Medientheoretiker hinterließ Walter Benjamin nicht nur die berühmte „materialistische“ Auratheorie, sondern auch scheinbar esoterische Theorien der bildenden Kunst. Der Zusammenhang und Inhalt der beiden Theorien können erhellt werden, wenn wir genauer sehen, wie er sich dort mit der Beschreibung der Kindheit beschäftigte. Der Ursprung seiner Auratheorie liegt in seiner „Tagebuch“-Literatur, wo er in die melancholisch gefärbten Visionen der „Jugend“ zu versinken pflegte. Der topologische Aufbau dieser Visionen – ihre eigenartig „photo-graphische“ Struktur – soll mithilfe der Zweiten Topik Freuds analysiert werden. Und aufgrund dieser Analyse werden wir eine Revision der üblichen (übersimplifizierten) Gegenüberstellung von seinem historischen Materislismus und dem „apolitischen Formalismus“ Clement Greenbergs vornehmen. Greenbergs Kunstkritik dient aber auch zur Entschlüsselung der „esoterischen“ Bildtheorien Benjamins. Die letzteren verwirren uns vor allem deshalb, weil dort das Sehen der Kinder zuerst (um 1915) irreführender Weise nach den üblichen Dichotomien der Romantik (Linie / Farbe; männlich / weiblich; erwachsen / kindlich…) beschrieben worden war; ihren eigentlichen Inhalt konnte Benjamin erst präzisieren, als er – anhand seiner Betrachtungen der graphischen „Horizontalität“ und nach seinen Spekulationen über das magische Wesen von „Zeichen“ und „Mal“ (1917) – eine Trichotomie der Bildgattungen (Malerei / Graphik / getuschtes Bild) aufgestellt hatte. Wir rekonstruieren diese Theorieentwicklungen nicht nur durch detaillierte Bild- und Textanalysen, sondern auch unter Heranziehung seines „materialistischen“ Spätwerks (der Passagenarbeit und der „Berliner Kindheit“), da erst im letzteren der einzigartige Zusammenhang zwischen seinen frühen Bildtheorien und seiner Geldtheorie als „Konstellation“ sichtbar werden sollte. / Walter Benjamin’s writings on visual arts include not only the famous „materialistic“ essays on aura but also seemingly esoteric notes on painting and the graphic arts. The content and correlation of all these writings become clear once we grasp how they perform the task of describing childhood experience. His theory of aura was prefigured in his philosophical „Diaries“ where his struggle with his depression was often followed (or interrupted) by dreamlike visions of "youth". The discursive structure of these visions – which will prove to be a strangely „photo-graphic“ one – is to be analyzed by using the second Freudian topology as a comparison. Through this analysis we will be able to reconsider the well-known (oversimplified) antagonism between his historical materialism and the „apolitical formalism“ of Clement Greenberg from a new viewpoint. Greenberg’s criticism helps us also to decipher the „esoteric“ texts of Benjamin. They puzzled scholars especially because they described children’s vision at first (about 1915) misleadingly in accordance with the conventional dichotomies of Romanticism (line / color; masculine / feminine; adult / child…); Benjamin could specify their original implication only after he had set up – based on his reflexions on the „horizontality“ of the graphic arts, and by speculating further on the magic nature of „Zeichen“ and „Mal“ (1917) – a trichotomy of genres (painting / the graphic arts / ink and watercolor illustrations). We will reconstruct this development of his theory not only through detailed analyses of related works of art but also in view of his „materialistic“ late writings (the Arcades Project and „Berlin Childhood“), for it is only there that we find out an essential relation – a singular „constellation“ – of his early art theory and his theory of money.
