Mon essai et mon roman se font l’écho l’un de l’autre, ils se répondent et reflètent ainsi le sujet de ma recherche : la polyphonie. Dans L’évolution du procédé polyphonique chez Suzanne Jacob, je m’attarde à trois romans de Suzanne Jacob, L’obéissance, Rouge, mère et fils et Fugueuses, œuvres chorales et teintées par la musique dans lesquelles la prose se décline en plusieurs voix. Puisque j’étudie la polyphonie dans son aspect musical et, parallèlement, dans une perspective littéraire, il est possible d’admettre que je fais moi aussi, au cœur de mon essai, l’exercice du contrepoint. Cet essai est précédé par Messe solennelle pour la famille Lebel, roman polyphonique qui, à la manière de Fugueuses, où la musique est déjà implicite dans le titre, se donne à lire comme une partition musicale. J’y présente quatre membres d’une même famille, deux hommes et deux femmes, qui doivent faire face à la mort de l’un des leurs. Ils se partagent une narration en contrepoint dans un récit à plusieurs voix (inspirées par les quatre catégories vocales principales en musique) dont la structure rappelle celle du requiem ou messe des morts. / My essay and my novel echo and dialogue with one another, thus mirroring the subject of my research: polyphony. In L’évolution du procédé polyphonique chez Suzanne Jacob, I study three choral novels by Suzanne Jacob (L’obéissance, Rouge, mère et fils and Fugueuses) in which musical references are omnipresent and stories are told by many voices. Since I study the musical aspect of polyphony in parallel with its literary counterpart, it can be said that I also use the counterpoint at the heart of my essay. This essay is preceded by Messe solennelle pour la famille Lebel, a polyphonic novel in which, like that of Fugueuses, the musical references are implicit in the title itself and can be read like a musical score. It tells the story of four family members – two men and two women – who have to face the death of one of their own. They share a counterpoint narration in a story told through many voices (inspired by the four main vocal categories in music) whose structure is reminiscent of the requiem, also known as Mass for the dead.

Para tanto, enfocamos a personagem criada por Collins e as características que a definem como heroína, comparando-a ao modelo heroico clássico descrito por tantos autores da Grécia e Roma, como, por exemplo, Homero, Hesíodo, Vergílio, etc., e considerando também as reflexões sobre o herói tecidas por Campbell em O herói de mil faces (1997), dentre outros títulos e autores que embasam nossos estudos. Percebemos que há, na série, uma mudança na representação de arquétipos literários, a saber, herói clássico versus donzela clássica, visto que Katniss Everdeen assume o papel de herói e Peeta Mellark, tributo masculino, assume o papel de donzela, pois, em grande parte do enredo, é salvo por ela. Dessa forma, buscamos verificar o que desvia a trama em estudo dos moldes então estabelecidos pelos Clássicos, ou seja, como Collins redefine os padrões da Literatura Clássica greco-romana, nos quais o homem era guerreiro e a mulher era dona de casa. Para isso, iniciamos nossas considerações a partir de Jung (2002), porque autores como Randazzo (1996), Vogler (2006) e Meletínski (1998), dentre outros, partem das postulações do psicanalista suíço para discutirem a respeito de arquétipos encontrados na publicidade, literatura e cinema. No percurso do estudo da heroína, realizamos uma breve comparação entre Katniss, outrora escravazida pela Capital (em uma espécie de escravidão velada), que se torna heroína e símbolo de toda uma revolução, e o herói masculino de outra obra, Espártaco, escravo e gladiador da Trácia, que foi líder de uma revolução conhecida por Guerra dos Escravos, conforme se pode comprovar no romance Espártaco, de Howard Fast (1981), publicado originalmente em inglês em 1951, e no filme baseado nesta obra literária, de Stanley Kubrick (1960), com a finalidade principal de comprovar a mudança no tratamento dos arquétipos e averiguar a presença de elementos ligados à cultura romana na série escrita por Collins. Enfim, buscamos verificar de que modo o modelo de Herói Clássico, seja na figura dos heróis mitológicos, seja na personagem histórica de Espártaco, é representado na caracterização da protagonista feminina de “Jogos vorazes” e quais significados tais representações acrescentam à interpretação da série. / The present study aims at analyzing the series titled “The Hunger Games” to demonstrate, by observing the characterization of the female character Katniss Everdeen, how the representation of the heroic model from Classical Antiquity persists in Contemporary Literature. In order to do so, we have focused on the character created by Collins and the features that define her as a heroine, comparing her to the classical heroic model described by several authors in Greece and Rome, such as Homer, Hesiod, Vergil, etc., as well as to specifications about the hero character presented in “The Hero with a Thousand Faces” (1997), by Joseph Campbell, along with additional information on the topic provided by other authors. We have observed a change, in Collins’ novels, regarding the representation of literary archetypes, namely the classical Hero versus the classical Maiden, as Katniss Everdeen takes the role of the Hero and Peeta Mellark, the male tribute, plays the role of the Maiden, for throughout a large part of the plot he is saved by her. Therefore, we seeked to verify what deviates the plot in study from the patterns once established by Classical tradition, or, in other words, to observe how Collins redefines the standards of the Greco-Roman Classical Literature, in which the man was a warrior and the woman was a housewife. Our study is based on Jung (2002) because authors such as Randazzo (1996), Vogler (2006) and Meletínski (1998), among others, consider the postulates of the Swiss psychoanalyst to discuss archetypes found in advertising, literature and cinema. In the course of the study of the heroine, for the purpose of proving the change in the treatment of archetypes and ascertaining the presence of elements related to the Roman culture in the series written by Collins, we made a brief comparison between Katniss, once slaved by the Capitol (in a kind of veiled slavery), who becomes a heroine and a symbol of an entire revolution, and the male hero of another artwork, Spartacus, a slave and gladiator from Thrace who was the leader of a revolution known as the “War of the Slaves,” as it can be seen in Howard Fast’s (1981) novel Spartacus, originally published in English in 1951, and in the film based on this literary work, directed by Stanley Kubrick (1960). Finally, our study demonstrates that the Classical Hero model, whether taken from mythological heroes or from the historical character of Spartacus, plays an important role in the characterization of the female protagonist of “The Hunger Games,” adding different meanings to the interpretation of the series. / Proc. 2015/23592-6

A partir de 2000, Bertazzo também se dedica a projetos de arte-educação com adolescentes da periferia do Rio de janeiro e São Paulo. O estudo tem três metas principais: traçar um panorama da trajetória de Ivaldo Bertazzo, como coreógrafo e diretor de espetáculos e de uma escola de dança; entender as bases da sua pesquisa de movimento e fazer a descrição analítica de seu trabalho específico com o corpo (Reeducação do Movimento), necessária para o entendimento da criação coreográfica; e investigar de que modo o conceito da construção da identidade pelo movimento, apontado por Bertazzo, ocorre no seu trabalho. Princípios coreográficos e técnica corporal foram abordados aqui no viés da "identidade e autonomia do movimento", entendida como forma de pensar o corpo, sua articulação e desenho no espaço, numa técnica híbrida, influenciada, por diversas fontes (incluindo a dança indiana, estudos de coordenação matara por Piret e Béziers e das cadeias musculares por Denys-Struyf). A obra de Bertazzo põe em xeque não só nossas idéias sobre o corpo, mas também nossa idéia de Brasil. Com isso em mente, durante a análise foi levada em conta a situação política do país e sua influência na evolução da dança nesse período, examinando as marcas que deixa no desenvolvimento dos criadores, obras, escolas e movimentos da nossa cultura. A tese recupera imagens em fotos e vídeos dos espetáculos desses trinta anos de carreira, fundamentais para a compreensão dessa dança / Abstract: This is a study of the Brazilian choregrapher and teacher IvaIdo Bertazzo, who has developed an original work with "citizen-dancers" since the 1970s, based on his own research on movement techniques. From 2000 on, Bertazzo has also developed a series of art-education projects with teenagers from poor neighbourhoods in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The thesis has three main aims: to draw a panorama of Bertazzo's career as a choreographer, artistic director and head of a dance school; to explain the bases for his research on movement, and to write an analytical descrition of his work on the body (Movement Reeducation), which is necessary in order to understand his choreographic creations; and to investigate the many ways in which his concept of "identity built by movement" pIays a role in this oeuvre. Choreographic principIes and body technique have been studied in the light of his ideas on "identity and autonomy of movement", taken as a way to think about the body, its shape and its forms of articulation in space, and leading to a hybrid technique, that draws on many different sources (including Indian dance, studies of coordination by Piret and Béziers, and the study ofmuscle chains by Denys-Struyf). Bertazzo's work challenges not only our ideas on the body, but aIso our ideas about Brazil. With that in mind, the research brings to attention many facets of the polítical situation and its influence upon Brazilian dance over these decades. It also examines the marks this has left on the work ofmany authors, schools and movements in Brazilian culture. The thesis collects photographs and video footage of many works performed over the Jast thirty years - an image bank which may be of great assistance for a better understanding of this period in Brazilian dance history / Doutorado / Doutor em Artes

Food relates to the experience of life, survival, and memory. It impacts us every day, whether we have plenty of it or not. It influences our memories and connects us to one another, while structuring details of our identities and cultures. As a creative writer and English major, I recognize that food influences a story to accentuate literary concepts and unveil them, such as a character’s compassion or the poison that a villain uses to unfold the plot. The best example of food as an impactful device within a story is The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. From the first chapter onward, Collins grants food deeper relevance in her book’s themes, the characters’ lives, and the world of Panem. Food studies explore the impact of food on societies and the world, which underly the concept of food as a device in the Hunger Games. For this thesis, I will explain specific utilizations of food as a literary device in the Hunger Games as it functions in world building, characterization, and plot momentum.

La critique des littératures francophones du Canada s'est longtemps nourrie de paradoxes. Se fondant d'abord sur les concepts de « littérature mineure » (Gilles Deleuze et Félix Guattari, Kafka. Pour une littérature mineure, 1975) et, dans une plus large mesure, de « littératures de l'exiguïté » (François Paré, Les littératures de l'exiguïté, 1992), elle s'est employée, à partir de la fin des années 1980 et du début des années 1990, à fonder un discours qui structurera essentiellement le champ des littératures francophones minoritaires autour de la notion d'identité. Cette littérature tournée vers sa spécificité vient toutefois occulter une partie importante de la production littéraire issue des francophonies du Canada qui est davantage orientée vers l'universalité. Cette thèse s'intéresse à l'interstice, à l'espace qui rend possible la conjugaison entre les réalités binaires qui caractérisent souvent les littératures francophones du Canada, à savoir leur appartenance à une exiguïté socioculturelle constitutive, d'une part, et leur aspiration à l'universalité érigée par la pratique de l'écriture, d'autre part. Pour rendre compte de l'articulation entre la conscience et l'oubli, entre le particularisme et l'universalisme à l'œuvre dans ces littératures, nous introduisons ici la notion de concomitance, qui apparaît comme une voie de lecture qui ambitionne de concilier les différences plutôt qu'une approche théorique à proprement parler. La concomitance se manifeste de différentes façons dans la production littéraire francophone du Canada, mais sa présence est particulièrement éloquente dans l'œuvre de certains auteurs, dont J. R. Léveillé (littératures francophones de l'Ouest canadien), Andrée Christensen (littérature franco-ontarienne), Serge Patrice Thibodeau (littérature acadienne) et Suzanne Jacob (littérature québécoise). C'est notamment à travers l'étude des stratégies discursives, des procédés et des mécanismes déployés dans la poésie de ces auteurs -poésie qui constitue « le langage même des marginalités », selon une expression de François Paré - que se révéleront les différentes expressions de la concomitance dans les littératures francophones du Canada.

Qu’est-ce que jouer au XXIe siècle des musiques de la Renaissance ? Prenant acte de ce que la richesse d’une expérience réside dans sa singularité, cette thèse fait le pari de répondre à cette question générale en s’intéressant à un processus particulier : la répétition et l’enregistrement d’une chanson du XVIe siècle par un ensemble spécialisé. Dès lors que l’on s’efforce de prendre les détails au sérieux, il semble que le suivi rapproché de ces musiciens-là, engagés en 2014 dans la performance réitérée de « Suzanne un jour » de Didier Lupi, présente bien un intérêt en tant que tel. Cela permet d’appréhender non seulement ce qui fait advenir et évoluer une proposition musicale, mais également les modalités de l’expérience collective et individuelle afférente. En outre, cette épistémologie singulariste rivée aux détails s’avère fructueuse à d’autres échelles, qu’il s’agisse de revenir sur cinq semaines de l’élaboration d’un projet discographique ou d’écrire cinq siècles d’histoire de « Suzanne ». / What does it mean to play Renaissance music in the 21st century? Taking into account that the depth of an experience derives from its singularity, the present dissertation looks at this general question by focusing on a specific process: a specialized ensemble rehearsing and recording a 16th century song. A close reading of this process makes it clear that there is inherent value in observing musicians in the year 2014 engaged in repeat performances of “Suzanne un jour” by Didier Lupi. This observation clarifies how a musical performance is created and developed and reveals the modalities of the collective and individual experiences involved. Moreover, this detail-oriented and singularist epistemology is useful in other respects, whether to comprehend a five-week recording project or to write a five-century history of “Suzanne.”

This thesis is a reception study of Susanne Ostens book, theatre play and children’s film Flickan, mamman och demonerna. The study aims to examine how proffesional crituiqe, published in daily press and journals, handles the crituiqes genre conventions with the theorie that if the cirtic averts from the crituiqes genre conventions that their/societys doxa on what we expect from children’s art will become more visible, and the inescapable follow up question: does this ecpectation mirror how we perceive children and their capabilities?  The theorie is an investigation of the professor and litterary scholar Anders Johansson’s essay Slitas itu publisched Critica Obscura: Litteraturkritiska essäer, where Johansson makes the claim that socitys doxa will become visible if the ciric does not follow the crituiqes genre conventions and that this will lead to an erosion of the crituiqes porpose. Johanssons theory is acompanied by, amongst others, Jaquline Rose’s The Case of Peter Pan, Or, The Impossibility of Children's Fiction, and Perry Nodelmans article “The Other: Orientalism, Colonialism, and Children’s Literature” pulished in Children’s Literature Association Quarterly17, no, chosen since the thesis as a whole practices a post colonial reading of the chosen crituiqe. The result of the investigation is that: where the critic averts from the crituiques genre conventions, and involves their own oppinions without porper motivation (E.g. where affective failures has occurred) in the text, a clear pattern of our conteporary doxa of how we perceive children and how the art made for them should behave/be. The pattern/tendancy found is that children’s art is expected to have a didactic value, that the piece of art should mirror the childs “reality”, have an indisputable and understandable point, and not evoke too many negative feelings. The thesis is woven, in a esseyistic style, with hard-to-grasp memories of the authors childhood and the academic form.

The following essay investigates the artificial magic environment in two fairy tales with similar tropes and themes, to find out if the magic is necessary for the growth of the characters. The ecocritical movement constitutes the essay’s theoretical background in order to shine a light on the physical nature that has been slightly neglected when it comes to discerning the inner nature of the heroines in these stories. By employing theoretical concepts from animal studies, the essay also examines the relationship between animals and humans for the purpose of including the portrayal of animals in an expanded view on nature. The major conclusion of the essay is that magic can both help and hinder the protagonist’s journey to maturity. Furthermore, these fairy tales portray different methods of downgrading animals, but they also challenge an anthropocentric view of the world.

Though born a century apart, American poets Emily Dickinson and Sylvia Plath share several similarities: Both were born in New England, both fought for their rights by writing, and both broke new poetic ground.          In this thesis, I look at their poetry through a movement in space, which begins with the poets’ precarious position as societal outliers and ends with ascension. I examine what crossing the threshold meant to them, physically and metaphorically, and how it is mirrored in their poems, I look at how the physical space in which they wrote color their poetry, I examine windows as a space of transit, and finally I take a closer look at the shape ascension takes in selected poems. I propose this road, this movement in space, is mirrored in both Dickinson’s and Plath’s poetry.      I use as my method deconstruction, to uncover hints and possibilities. I scan letters and journals, biographies and memoirs. As my theoretical framework, I use Walter Benjamin’s ideas about the threshold as a place of transit, as well as his thoughts about the flaneur as the observer of the crowd, both of which are presented in The Arcades Project. To further examine the threshold as a space for pause, reconsideration, retreat, or advance, I rely on Subha Mukheriji and her book Thinking on Thresholds: The Poetics of Transitive Spaces. I further use Gaston Bachelard’s seminal The Poetics of Spaceto investigate the poets’ response to the physical space in which they wrote. I look at ascension through the prism offered by the ideas of Mircea Eliade as presented in Myths, Dreams, and Mysteries: The Encounter Between Contemporary Faiths and Archaic Realities.
