24	Dílo Philippa de Mézières (c. 1327 - 1405) jako historický pramen / Philippe de Mézières's (c. 1327 - 1405) Works as a Historical Source Severýn, Martin January 2017 (has links) Although Philippe de Mézières (ca 1327-1405) was born into a not very influential gentry family from northern France, his steep career brought him to the Holy Land. As a diplomat and an ardent supporter of the idea of the Crusades, he got to visit the most important European royal courts, thus securing the attention of historians. He consciously reflects the political and social climate in Europe at the time, he explores religious issues and even own experiences - in short, de Mézières vast literary work is one of the most remarkable images of Europe during the late Middle Ages and the thinking of a medieval man of a high social status. Thanks to Philippe de Mézières' presence at the Royal Court of Charles IV in Prague and their likely meeting in Paris in 1378, we can trace evident links to Luxembourg politics in his work, to the Czech Kingdom and even to Charles IV himself, including his son Wenceslas. As a Crusades theoretician, de Mézières got himself involved in the highest levels of European politics, yet he constantly emphasized the need for morality, peace and cohesiveness in the courts. The thesis uses an example of one of de Mézières' later works, his Letter to Richard II (Epistre au roi Richarti, 1395), to explore diplomatic ties in Western Europe in the fourteenth century and pursues...

26	Shakespeare and the hermeneutics of censorship in Renaissance England Awad, Soufiane 08 1900 (has links) Mon mémoire vise à définir, analyser, contextualiser et historiciser la censure à la Renaissance à travers l’exploration de diverses œuvres de Shakespeare, notamment les pièces souvent désignées sous le nom d’Henriad— Henry IV partie 1 et 2, Richard II— tout en portant une attention particulière sur Les Sonnets. Cette thèse s’intéresse à l’interpénétration des différentes institutions de censure, ainsi qu’aux différentes façons dont la censure peut se manifester ; à l’hétérogénéité des institutions, des divers agents, ainsi que des censeurs ; à la manière dont certains mécanismes se rejoignent, coopèrent ou divergent à d’autres moments. L’objectif principal est de démontrer que la censure va au-delà des paramètres de quelconque institution ou agent individuel, et qu’elle résulte de l’amalgame de chaque partie impliquée volontairement ou involontairement dans la prolifération de mesures répressives. Finalement, mon étude démontre que les pièces et Les Sonnets de Shakespeare ont été censurés de différentes manières, et cela, par différentes institutions, mais plus important encore, ce mémoire met en évidence que Shakespeare a mis en avant différents stratagèmes adaptables dans le but de contourner la censure de ses œuvres. / This thesis seeks to define, analyze, contextualize, and historicize censorship in the Renaissance through an exploration of Shakespeare’s Sonnets as well as the group of plays often referred to as the Henriad—1 Henry IV, 2 Henry IV, and Richard II. The overarching focus of this thesis is to demonstrate the in-betweenness of censorship—the different ways in which censorship is manifested; the institutions as well as the censors; how different censoring mechanisms merge at certain times, cooperate, or even disagree at others. The goal is to bring forth a clear understanding of the genealogical entity of censorship, to prove that censorship is bigger than any one institution, any one individual, that censorship is an amalgamation of every different susceptible censoring party working together mostly, and sometimes not—voluntarily or involuntarily—in their ever-changing ways of repression. Ultimately, my study of Shakespeare demonstrates that the plays and the sonnets were censored in different ways through different institutions, but more importantly, this paper highlights that Shakespeare had different adaptable ways of circumventing the censorship of his works.

27	Satire of Counsel, Counsel of Satire: Representing Advisory Relations in Later Medieval Literature Newman, Jonathan M. 20 January 2009 (has links) Satire and counsel recur together in the secular literature of the High and Late Middle Ages. I analyze their collocation in Latin, Old Occitan, and Middle English texts from the twelfth to the fifteenth century in works by Walter Map, Alan of Lille, John of Salisbury, Daniel of Beccles, John Gower, William of Poitiers, Thomas Hoccleve, and John Skelton. As types of discourse, satire and counsel resemble each other in the way they reproduce scenarios of social interaction. Authors combine satire and counsel to reproduce these scenarios according to the protocols of real-life social interaction. Informed by linguistic pragmatics, discourse analysis, sociolinguistics and cultural anthropology, I examine the relational rhetoric of these texts to uncover a sometimes complex and reflective ethical discourse on power which sometimes implicates itself in the practices it condemns. The dissertation draws throughout on sociolinguistic methods for examining verbal interaction between unequals, and assesses what this focus can contribute to recent scholarly debates on the interrelation of social and literary practices in the later Middle Ages. In the first chapter I introduce the concepts and methodologies that inform this dissertation through a detailed consideration of Distinction One of Walter Map’s De nugis curialium . While looking at how Walter Map combines discourses of satire and counsel to negotiate a new social role for the learned cleric at court, I advocate treating satire as a mode of expression more general than ‘literary’ genre and introduce the iii theories and methods that inform my treatment of literary texts as social interaction, considering also how these approaches can complement new historicist interpretation. Chapter two looks at how twelfth-century authors of didactic poetry appropriate relational discourses from school and household to claim the authoritative roles of teacher and father. In the third chapter, I focus on texts that depict relations between princes and courtiers, especially the Prologue of the Confessio Amantis which idealizes its author John Gower as an honest counselor and depicts King Richard II (in its first recension) as receptive to honest counsel. The fourth chapter turns to poets with the uncertain social identities of literate functionaries at court. Articulating their alienation and satirizing the ploys of courtiers—including even satire itself—Thomas Hoccleve in the Regement of Princes and John Skelton in The Bowge of Court undermine the satirist-counselor’s claim to authenticity. In concluding, I consider how this study revises understanding of the genre of satire in the Middle Ages and what such an approach might contribute to the study of Jean de Meun and Geoffrey Chaucer.
