Para analisar a construção de Saramago, foram eleitos dois de seus romances: Ensaio sobre a cegueira (1995) e Ensaio sobre a lucidez (2004), livros que mantêm entre si uma continuação. O foco desta dissertação está voltado para a personagem mulher do médico, que divide o espaço da narrativa com outros que serão de fundamental importância para o desenvolvimento da trama. É essa personagem quem faz o papel de bode expiatório nas tramas de Saramago. A leitura dos romances de Saramago sob esse viés é possível em razão das teorias e estudos elaborados por René Girard, que procura compreender e teorizar o desejo mimético, a violência fundadora e a escolha (construção) do bode expiatório. As teorias defendidas por René Girard acerca da escolha do bode expiatório ¿ desde o seu surgimento até o seu sacrifício para o surgimento de uma nova sociedade ¿ nos ajuda a compreender os movimentos criados por José Saramago no decorrer dos dois romances e a importância que a personagem mulher do médico tem para ajudar a discutir as relações de poder e, principalmente, para revelar a crítica de José Saramago aos estados tidos como democráticos. Neste trabalho me interessa, sobretudo, observar o percurso desta personagem desde o primeiro romance em que aparece como uma espécie de heroína abnegada até o segundo romance, quando se torna vítima do sistema ¿ portanto o bode expiatório ¿, até a sua execução, e quais são as questões que estão envolvidas na construção criada por Saramago para melhor compreender a crítica aos estados democráticos em suas obras / Abstract: This work aims to analyse the construction of José Saramago¿s scapegoat with the help of René Girard¿s theoretical writings. In order to do it, two novels writen by Saramago were selected: Ensaio sobre a Cegueira (Blindness, 1995) and Ensaio sobre a Lucidez (Seeing, 2004), whose themes derive one from another. The focus is put on the main character, named simply as doctor¿s wife, who shares the narrative space with other characteres responsible for the developing of the plot. It¿s doctor¿s wife who plays the role of the scapegoat in Saramago¿s novels. The reading of both books from the point of view of Girard¿s works is possible because there are a sort of resemblances between the novels and the theory: the mimetic desire, the founding violence e the choosing of the scapegoat are all themes and subjects that belong both to Saramago¿s literature and Girard¿s thought. Finally, the work also wants to understand the trajectory of doctor¿s wife from the first novel, where she shows herself as some sort of unselfish heroine, to the second novel, when she becomes a victim of the political system ¿ therefore, the scapegoat ¿ until her execution. The goal is to reveal what is behind the construction of the character in order to be able to comprehend the critics that Saramago draws to the democratic system in his literary works / Mestrado / Teoria e Critica Literaria / Mestra em Teoria e História Literária

No. of bitstreams: 1 Closel_RegisAugustusBars_M.pdf: 2038312 bytes, checksum: 7c1b1af36416b37e4e7597571df3f57d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011 / Resumo: A presente dissertação tem por objetivo propor um diálogo entre duas obras dramáticas de grande significância, Ricardo III e As Troianas, no cânone de seus autores, respectivamente, William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616) e Lucius Annaeus Sêneca (4 a.C - 65 d.C). A premissa inicial é a relação tradicional entre ambos, que atribui ao tragediógrafo elisabetano uma influência textual, temática e estilística originária do filósofo e tragediógrafo latino. Para o estudo dessas relações, limitadas ao escopo de duas obras, o trabalho foi dividido em três partes. No primeiro capítulo é realizado um percurso sobre toda a historiografia da crítica da influência que Sêneca teria exercido sobre os dramaturgos que escreveram durante a segunda metade do século XVI, na Inglaterra. Observa-se, principalmente, como a visão e a metodologia de se tratar o tema da influência se altera, ao longo dos anos, chegando, por exemplo, a ser negada por alguns críticos durante certo tempo, além da observação do delineamento do próprio objeto. Toma-se o cuidado, durante todo o trabalho de não fazer opção a favor ou negar a presença de Sêneca para não incorrer em extremismos. No segundo capítulo, busca-se, com base nos resultados do primeiro capítulo, a leitura histórica dos elementos temáticos e estilísticos lidos como derivados de ou influenciados por Sêneca. Neste ponto o foco distancia-se do campo de discussão crítica do fenômeno para o campo de crítica histórico-literária e os objetos focados, agora, são exatamente aqueles que anteriormente foram levantados como ?"senequianos". No terceiro capítulo, conhecida a história da influência e tendo sido feita uma gama de opções e leituras sobre a época de Shakespeare, inicia-se a leitura das duas obras. Tal abordagem preambular se fez necessária para que houvesse um embasamento tanto da crítica da discussão da influência, como da leitura histórica da cultura que produziu Ricardo III. Foi feita a opção de seguir com a leitura de René Girard sobre os conceitos de Teoria Mimética e Crise de Diferenças, pois tocam em noções basilares do mundo Elisabetano, apresentando, portanto, uma atmosfera na qual os diálogos poderiam situar relações de aproximação e afastamento entre a dupla de obras escolhida. Observa-se uma leitura mítica, muito rica politicamente, ao trabalhar com a história/mito conhecidos por ambas as obras / Abstract: This dissertation aims to propose a dialogue between two dramatic works of great importance, Richard III and Trojan Women, both canonic for their authors, respectively, William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616) and Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 BC - 65 AD). The initial premise is the traditional relationship between them, which presupposes that the Elizabethan tragedies have textual, thematic and stylistic influence of the Latin philosopher and tragedian. In order to study these relationships, restricted to the scope of the two referred plays, the dissertation was divided into three parts. The first chapter is about Seneca's influence on playwrights who wrote along the second half of the sixteenth century in England. It focuses mainly the vision and methodology used to study the issue of influence and changes of views over the years, reaching, for example, the fact that the influence was denied by some critics for some time. It also observes the outline of the object - the relation between plays - itself. Along these considerations, I was aware that I should not propose or deny the influence of Seneca in order not to incur in extremism. The second chapter, based on the results of the first chapter, seeks to read the historical interpretation of stylistic and thematic elements as derived from or influenced by Seneca. At this point, the analysis moves away from the critical discussion to approach the field of historical and literary criticism. The focused objects are exactly those that have previously been raised as "senequians", like the blank verse, the tyrant and the presence of ghosts. In the third chapter begins the interpretation of both tragedies. This preliminary approach was necessary in order to have a critical foundation for the discussion of influence, as that one produced by historical reading of Richard III. The mimetic theory of René Girard and the Crisis of Differences offered fundamental notions for the Elizabethan world, which presented interlocution between both tragedies, so that it was possible to examine approaches and distances between the two chosen plays. It was observed a very rich mythical and political relation among the plays using the known versions of history/myth / Mestrado / Teoria e Critica Literaria / Mestre em Teoria e História Literária

Dans « En songeant à un art poétique », Jules Supervielle définit sa poésie comme une entreprise d’humanisation. Quelle acception convient-Il de donner à ce terme, et en quoi se révèle-T-Il pertinent pour aborder l’œuvre de l’écrivain ? C’est à cette question que tente de répondre cette thèse, en cherchant à déterminer le sens qu’il convient de donner à l’humanisation à partir du double héritage de l’humanisme de la Renaissance et de l’humanitarisme romantique, et en s’appuyant sur des manuscrits et des correspondances en partie inédits. Dans une première partie, l’étude de la théorisation de l’humanisation chez Supervielle nous amène à mener une réflexion ressortissant de l’histoire des idées et de l’histoire littéraire, en nous penchant sur l’idée de la littérature développée par l’écrivain, et en analysant le rôle joué par Jean Paulhan et par René Étiemble dans l’apparition de cette idée. La seconde partie analyse la genèse diachronique de l’humanisation, au sein d’un essai de géographie poétique qui se focalise sur le tournant que constituent les années 1920 et 1930. La troisième partie est consacrée à l’étude de la genèse synchronique, considérant l’apparition de l’humanisation dans les divers états d’un texte, en poésie, en prose et au théâtre. L’étude de l’humanisation dans l’œuvre de Jules Supervielle permet ainsi de préciser le paysage littéraire et l’interpénétration des idées de la littérature qui se développent dans la première moitié du XXe siècle, en marge du surréalisme. / In « En songeant à un art poétique », Jules Supervielle defines his poetry as an attempt at humanization. How should this term be understood, and how does it enlighten Supervielle’s work ? In order to answer this question, this dissertation sets out to define the meaning of humanization through the lens of the double legacy of the humanism of the Renaissance and the humanitarianism of Romanticism, and in the light of partly unpublished manuscripts and letters. In the first part, this dissertation studies how Supervielle theorizes humanization. It leads to an analysis of a history of ideas and of literature, in order to define Supervielle’s conception of literature and in order to assess Jean Paulhan’s and René Étiemble’s roles in this theorization. The second part is a chronological study of humanization that takes the form of an essay of poetic geography. It focuses particularly on the work of the 1920’s and 1930’s. The third part is a genetic one : we study how humanization appears in the different states of a poem, a prose and a drama. The Study of humanization in Supervielle’s works enables us to have a better understanding of the literary landscape and of the entanglement of literary ideas in the first half of the twentieth century, in the margins of Surrealism.

Ce travail a pour objet une étude théorique des formes de société politique et des contraintes de production de leur unité collective. Le questionnement qui l’anime interroge les modalités de base génératrices d’une dimension collective, par laquelle faire tenir les agents sociaux ensemble, dans un espace commun. Ces formes sont considérées à partir de l’enseignement apporté par l’œuvre de Marcel Gauchet. Les travaux de ce dernier ont approfondi les modes différenciés de structuration de l’existence collective, selon le déploiement d’un fonctionnement autonome des collectivités humaines-sociales, par extraction hors de l’hétéronomie. Autour de l’instauration et de la modification possible des configurations d’un espace humain-social, il s’agit de s’interroger spécifiquement sur les contraintes de mise en forme, inhérentes aux possibilités de déploiement de cet espace. Cette formation interne sera appréhendée par un angle dynamique, issu des travaux fournis par l’œuvre morphologique de René Thom. Au travers de la théorie des catastrophes (TC), il a dressé une liste de formes stables et de processus de changement, instables dans le temps, mais robustes dans les dimensions qui en permettent le déploiement. Depuis l’analyse d’un système dynamique nécessaire à l’intelligence de ce déploiement, une articulation problématique se découvre : l’organisation de la dimension collective dans l’immanence, et la gestion politique de la dimension historique, incitent à questionner l’historicité interne des collectivités, à partir de la notion de processus morphologique et selon les déformations que ce processus peut connaître. Les éclairages que cette notion de processus apporte, indiquent l’effectivité d’un travail de la forme, dans l’étude du tenir ensemble des collectivités politiques. / This work aims to understand the way societies are shaped and to identify the constraints within they move themselves. It tries to answer the question of how social agents turn out to act collectively in shared social space, in other words to make society. This work take forms into account following Marcel Gauchet’s work. Indeed Marcel Gauchet has managed to grasp the differentiated patterns structuring collective life, characterising them as resulting from the deployment of an autonomous functioning of human-social communities, by extraction from heteronomy. The present work goes on step further and, considering the establishment and possible change of the configurations of a human-social space, it wonders about the constraining framework of the formation of this space. This internal shaping is looked into from René Thom’s morphological approach. Indeed, through his Catastrophe Theory (CT), René Thom compiled a list of stable forms and processes of change, unstable over time, but steady as far as the conditions of their formation are concerned. It accentuates the core issue: the organization of the collective dimension through immanence, and the political management of the historical dimension drive us to examine the inner historicity of communities from the concept of morphological process and according to the distortions it may undergo. This concept proves useful to understand the morphological dynamic which enable communities to hold together.

L’essor de la cartographie locale en Occident à la fin du Moyen Âge est marqué par l’association de deux manières de voir et de montrer le monde : la peinture et la cartographie. Cette association a favorisé la diffusion d’une multitude de nouvelles pratiques de représentation de l’espace entre le XIVe siècle et le début du XVIe siècle à des échelles, locales ou régionales, peu usitées auparavant. Ces nouvelles pratiques cherchaient à reproduire l’expérience de la vue. Le corpus des représentations d’espaces locaux du début du XIVe siècle au début du XVIe siècle est aussi riche que méconnu. Il comprend des cartes territoriales, des figures schématiques, des plans, des vues paysagères ou encore des portraits élaborés par des auteurs de formations et de natures variées, notamment des hommes de loi et des peintres. L’expression « vue figurée » a progressivement été employée dans les textes pour désigner cette documentation. Les vues figurées s’appuyaient moins sur des savoirs géographiques que sur la visite et sur l’observation de lieux en discussion par un agent de l’autorité. Elles exposaient des territoires ou des localités afin de répondre à des préoccupations pratiques telles que des projets d’aménagement, des litiges ou des entreprises d’appropriation.À partir d'un corpus de représentations de l'espace issues de l’art et du droit, la thèse propose d’analyser les pratiques juridiques, sociales et culturelles ainsi que les logiques de perception de l’espace qui sont en œuvre dans la production de documents cartographiques à cette échelle. / The rise of local cartography at the end of the Middle Ages was shaped by the association of two ways of seeing and showing the world : painting and cartography. This association promoted the spreading of numerous new practices of spatial representation between the 14th century and the beginning of the 16th century at some local and regional scales rarely used before. Those practices attempted to reproduce the experience of sight. This kind of document is mostly often called « figures » or « portraits » by their authors. But archivists and scholars use another vocabulary according to formal criteria : sketches, plans, local maps, descriptions or views. The expression « vue figurée » (pictured view) used since the 16th century characterizes this documentation by stating the very nature of this kind of representation. The « vues figurées » do not belong to any geographical categorizations and were directly drawn by some agents of authorities to discuss territories or places. The thesis analyses juridical, social and cultural practices along with particular perceptions this kind of document refers to.

Nombreux ont été les travaux réalisés sur le gaullisme et les gaullistes ces dernières années. Outre les nombreuses études sur le général de Gaulle, ces travaux ont notamment concerné le parti se réclamant de celui qui a lancé l’appel du 18 juin 1940, ainsi que les idées qui composent ce courant de pensée. Il s’agit pour nous de nous intéresser à la période allant du départ du général du pouvoir le 27 avril 1969 jusqu’à l’année 1992, qui voit au niveau national le référendum de Maastricht diviser les gaullistes sur la question européenne et au niveau local l’élection à la tête de la région de Antoine Rufenacht, qui succède à un autre gaulliste, Roger Fossé. Ici, nous prenons un point de vue original puisqu’il s’agit de faire une étude territoriale d’un parti politique, en prenant comme objet d’étude une région, la Haute-Normandie. C’est pourquoi notre analyse se situe sur plusieurs échelles, du national au municipal, en passant par l’échelle régionale, départementale ainsi que celle de la circonscription et du canton. Ainsi, un des objectifs est de s’interroger sur la question de savoir s’il y a une certaine singularité du territoire normand par rapport à l’échelon national. Une étude des structures partisanes territoriales nous permet également de voir comment s’organise un parti politique au niveau local, et de constater ou non qu’il y a une indépendance possible par rapport à la structure nationale. Enfin, nous nous posons la question de savoir ce qu’il reste du gaullisme une génération après le départ de son inspirateur, à travers l’étude des références au général de Gaulle, au gaullisme lui-même, mais également en nous attachant à voir l’évolution des références aux idées qui fondent le gaullisme. De même, l’apparition d’un nouvel acteur dans la vie politique au milieu des années 1980, le Front national, oblige ceux qui se réclament du gaullisme à s’adapter à ce nouvel état de fait. Pour mener cette étude, au-delà des sources classiques que sont les articles de presse, nous utilisons des sources jamais utilisées jusqu’ici. Il s’agit premièrement des rapports des Renseignements Généraux qui permettent d’avoir des éléments pour définir ce qu’est la vie politique dans un parti politique au niveau local, mais également des archives privées et orales qui permettent de donner un regard neuf sur le parti gaulliste et sur ceux qui le compose. / Over the past few years, many works have been done on “French Gaullism” as well as on “partisan gaullists”. Besides the numerous studies on French Général de Gaulle, these works focused mostly on the political party which claimed the political ideas of the man who called to resistance with the “Appeal of 18 June”. What will be primarly explored in this work is the era which followed the Général’s resignation from power on the 27 april 1969, up to the year 1992, which saw, at a national level, the French Maastricht Treaty referendum divide gaullists on the European issue, as well as, at a local level, the election of Antoine Rufenacht as head of region, following another gaullist, Roger Fossé. Our approach here is therefore quite original as it is a territorial study of a political party, and it explores the regional example of Haute-Normandie. As a result, our analysis will combine different scales of observation, from national to municipal, as well as regional, local and district scales. Thus, one of our main goal is to question ourselves on the singularity of the Normandy region, compared to the national standard. A close examination of the regional adherent structures will allow us to illuminate the organisation of a local political party, and to evaluate the possible independence from the national structure. Finally, we will discuss the state of “French Gaullism”, one generation after the retirement of its leader, through the exploration of references to the Général de Gaulle, of the “gaullist” movement itself, as well as of the evolution of its fondamental principles. Furthermore, the emerging of a new french political actor in the mid-1980s, the far-right party “Front National”, forces those who refer as “gaullists” to adapt to this new political polarisation. In order to conduct this study beyond the usual sources, that is to say press articles, rare sources, that have never been used before, will be put under scrutiny. As a result, we will benefit from reports by the « Renseignements Généraux », which are decisive to clearly define what political life means inside a political party, at a local scale. Moreover, privates archives and oral files will allow us to provide a fresh look on the “gaullist” party and its members.

The aim of this thesis is to show in what way the mechanistic philosophy of René Descartes allowed him to accept William Harvey's discovery of the circulation of the blood, while at the same time prevented him from accepting his explanation of the movement of the heart. In the introductory section we mention some of the basic notions concerning the state of natural philosophy in the second half of the 16th century which are closely related to the themes of the thesis. Both authors we are concerned with are also presented. The second, historicaly oriented section focuses on Aristotle's, Galen's and Harvey's opinions on the role and motion of the heart and blood in the human body. The aim is to describe how Harvey's 1628 treatise De motu cordis allowed to resolve the proliferating problems faced by the Galenist tradition in the 16th and the early 17th century. The third section presents the exposition of the introductory chapters of Descartes' 1633 treatise Le Monde in which he introduces the basic notions of his new mechanistic philosophy. Among these are the three types of particles, the plenist conception of the world, the omnipresence of circular motions and the relationship between God, natural laws and motion in the world. The fourth section is dedicated to Descartes' a Harvey's point of...

This thesis uses reception theory, as formulated by the late Wolfgang Iser, as well as ideas about interpellation or hailing, to compare and analyze two paintings: The Annunciation (c. 1435) by Roger van der Weyden and Personal Values (1952) by René Magritte. It demonstrates that interpellation and reception are part of the same process, and that reception theory is especially suited to this comparison and analysis-because it allows consideration of ways in which the comparable pictorial structures of both paintings facilitate their intentions. It argues that those intentions are to engage viewers in a dialogue that ultimately is beneficial to both pictures and viewers. Furthermore, based on this shared intent, and on visible structural similarities, it argues that each of the two paintings identifies and receives the other as a picture of the same image-that is, of the Annunciation.

A presente dissertação investiga o argumento da distinção real entre corpo e alma presente nas Meditações Metafísicas. O objetivo central é explicar o motivo pelo qual, nesta obra, a separabilidade entre corpo e alma é posta como condição suficiente para esse tipo de distinção. Para isso, percorre, ao longo das Meditações, os conceitos de alma, de corpo e de percepção clara e distinta. Faz uma análise do argumento da distinção real entre corpo e alma exposto na Sexta Meditação e, em seguida, se utiliza das discussões de Descartes com Caterus e Arnauld presente nas Objeções e Respostas visando a esclarecer pontos do argumento que ainda permanecem obscuros. Mostra, com o estudo das Meditações associado às Objeções e Respostas, que a distinção real é aquela que se dá entre substâncias e que ser substância é ser separável. Assim, sendo o reconhecimento da separabilidade de duas coisas o reconhecimento de que essas coisas são substâncias – e, portanto, de que são realmente distintas – explica, com isso, o motivo pelo qual a separabilidade é condição suficiente para a distinção real entre corpo e alma e conclui que ela lhe é, também, uma condição necessária. / This dissertation investigates the argument of the real distinction between body and soul presented on the Meditations on First Philosophy. The main goal is to explain the reason why the separability between body and soul is considered sufficient condition for this sort of distinction. In order to reach its goal, along the Meditations, it takes the path through the concepts of soul, body and the clear and distinct perception. It analyses the argument of the real distinction between body and soul presented on the Sixth Meditation and afterwards it makes use of Descartes’ discussions with Caterus and Arnauld, presented on Objections and Replies, seeking to clarify points of the argument that yet remain obscure. Studying the Meditations associated with the Objections and Replies, this dissertation shows that the real distinction is the one that happens between substances and that being a substance is being separable. Thus, being the recognition of the separability of two things the recognition of that those things are substances – and, hence, that they are really distinct – it explains the reason why the separability is sufficient condition for the real distinction between body and soul. It concludes that the separability is also a necessary condition to that sort of distinction.
