1	A poetics of uncertainty : a chorographic survey of the life of John Trevisa and the site of Glasney College, Cornwall, mediated through locative arts practice Diggle, Valerie Ann January 2017 (has links) Connections between the medieval Cornishman and translator John Trevisa (1342-1402) and Glasney College in Cornwall are explored in this thesis to create a deep map about the figure and the site, articulated in a series of micro-narratives or anecdotae. The research combines book-based strategies and performative encounters with people and places, to build a rich, chorographic survey described in images, sound files, objects and texts. A key research problem – how to express the forensic fingerprint of that which is invisible in the historic record – is described as a poetics of uncertainty, a speculative response to information that teeters on the brink of what can be reliably known. This poetics combines multi-modal writing to communicate events in the life of the research, auto-ethnographically, from the point of view of an artist working in the academy. As such, it makes a pedagogical contribution to reflective writing about creative practice. John Trevisa, in the context of contemporary Cornish culture, is a contested figure because his linguistic innovations, in the course of translating key texts from Latin into the English vernacular, make no obvious contribution to Kernowek (Cornish), which is currently undergoing revival from a position of extinction. However, Glasney College, where Trevisa is likely to have been educated, is generally regarded as the centre for the production of the Ordinalia, a cycle of medieval mystery plays written uniquely in Kernowek. This thesis considers the vocabulary that Trevisa innovated, such as concept, fiction, virtual, as crucial to research writing but calls for a new vocabulary to articulate the feminised, labile research processes that characterise this research. It also uses the site and the figure as templates to articulate wider, contemporary systems under stress socially, culturally and politically.
2	Everyday always happens to someone else : an attempt at practising an endotic-based art Smith, Gerald January 2017 (has links) This thesis is an account of my three sites-in-endotics, each project resulting in a participatory artwork: Thaw (2012), Northern Venetians (2013) and The Recollective (2015). I base these projects upon the writings of Georges Perec (1936-82). Perec saw endotics as a form of quotidian studies characterised by an internal perspective: everyday situations should be described from the vantage point of those already immersed in them, not from the position of an outsider. Hence the participatory character of these works. Through these projects, the participants explore their spatial practices as they engage in a collective writing. In this thesis I write my own spatial practice, describing my construction of the frameworks that enable the participants to tell their stories. My methodology outlines the theoretical and practical approaches I adopt, and explains my reasons for doing so. My literature review contextualises them. My case studies offer a reflective account of my practice based research. I conclude by returning to the potential usefulness of an endotic approach. Research Questions What are the ways in which I can use Perec’s endotic writings to construct a participatory art practice exploring everyday situations? Can we talk of participants as being the meaningful co-authors of an artwork? How do multilayered narratives portray the participants’ spatial practices? 848

4	Scepticisme et politesse dans l'œuvre de David Hume / Scepticism and politeness in the works of David Hume Simon, Alexandre 05 January 2016 (has links) Ce travail étudie la relation entre scepticisme et politesse dans l’œuvre de David Hume afin de contribuer à la compréhension philosophique de l’art d’écrire de Hume et de son évolution. Du Traité de la nature humaine (1739-1740) aux œuvres suivantes (les Essais, les deux Enquêtes, les Four Dissertations et les Dialogues sur la religion naturelle), on observe un incontestable changement dans la manière de communiquer la science de l’homme au public du XVIIIe siècle. Inspiré en partie du journalisme philosophique d’Addison et de Steele et destiné à rendre la philosophie abstraite accessible au public de la conversation, l’art d’écrire de Hume témoigne d’une intégration progressive de la culture de la politesse au scepticisme mitigé et à son expression. Mais cela signifie tout sauf un renoncement aux ambitions spéculatives du Traité, que Hume aurait abandonnées pour la recherche d’une gloire mondaine. Au contraire, comme expression de la bonne humeur caractéristique du « vrai sceptique » et comme préparation littéraire de la réception critique de la philosophie au sein de la République des Lettres, l’art d’écrire de Hume cherche à donner à cette science sceptique – et science nouvelle – qu’est la science de l’homme le public dont elle a besoin pour assurer sa fondation. Le scepticisme mitigé apparaît alors comme étant essentiellement un scepticisme policé, c’est-à-dire comme la meilleure manière de faire entrer la « métaphysique » dans la voie sûre de la civilisation. / This study deals with the relationship between scepticism and politeness in the works of David Hume, in order to contribute to the understanding of Hume’s art of writing from a philosophical point of view. From the Treatise of human nature (1739-1740) to the later works (the Essays, the two Enquiries, the Four dissertations and the Dialogues concerning natural religion), one can observe an obvious change in the manner of communicating the science of man to the public of the eighteenth century. Partly inspired by the philosophical journalism of Addison and Steele and designed to make abstract philosophy accessible to the public of conversation, Hume’s art of writing shows a progressive integration of the culture of politeness with scepticism and its expression. But this certainly does not mean that Hume would have left the speculative ambitions of the Treatise for worldly success. On the contrary, as an expression of the good humour which characterizes the « true sceptic » as well as a literary preparation of the critical reception of philosophy in the Republic of Letters, Hume’s art of writing tries to give to the science of man, considered as a sceptical – and new – science, the public that it needs for its foundation. Hence mitigated scepticism appears essentially as a polite scepticism, the best way for « metaphysics » to enter upon the secure path of civilization.

6	Leo Strauss, art d'écrire : entre rhétorique et herméneutique. / Leo Strauss, the Art of Writing : between Rhetoric and Hermeneutics. Maklouf, Moudar 03 December 2018 (has links) Leo Strauss affirme avoir redécouvert l’art d’écrire oublié des philosophes du passé. Il s’agit d’une technique littéraire consistant en un discours de prime abord orthodoxe - c'est le niveau ou l'enseignement exotérique d'un texte -, mais qui communique « entre les lignes » la pensée véritable de l’écrivain, de nature hétérodoxe - c'est le niveau ou l'enseignement ésotérique. La lecture de tels auteurs requiert donc une herméneutique adaptée, permettant de saisir l’écart entre l’évidence de ce qu’affichent les écrits de l’auteur, et la vérité secrètement distillée derrière la lettre de ses écrits. Cette méthode de lecture est le point d’orgue de travaux entrepris par Strauss dès les années 1920. Elle est formalisée à la fin des années 30, et accompagne une mutation de l’écriture de l’auteur. Les travaux traitant de cette partie de l’œuvre du philosophe consistent généralement d’une part à critiquer sa clé herméneutique, en confirmant ou en infirmant sa pertinence, ou d’autre part à envisager la portée politique et philosophique de l’exo/ésotérisme. Les études s’attachant à comprendre la construction de ce prisme de lecture à travers le parcours intellectuel de Strauss demeurent sauf exception relativement parcellaires, et s’attachent à éclairer l’art d’écrire en le rattachant à certaines références. Les examens se focalisant sur la façon dont l’exo/ésotérisme se forme au fil du corpus straussien affleurent depuis quelques années, et c’est notamment au sein de ce champ de recherche que se situe la thèse. Au-delà, il s’agit de porter l’attention sur le propre style de Strauss, en se concentrant précisément sur la façon dont il conçoit et fait usage des catégories de l’exotérique et de l’ésotérique. La façon dont l’auteur s’en empare et le rôle qu’elles jouent dans l’économie de sa pensée peut renseigner quant à la façon de le lire et de le comprendre. Revenir aux sources de l’art d’écrire, examiner sa formation et observer son emploi par Strauss lui-même permet ainsi de donner un éclairage nouveau sur la thèse controversée de l’écriture entre les lignes des philosophes. / Leo Strauss asserts having rediscovered the lost art of writing of philosophers of past. It is a literary technique consisting of a speech at first sight orthodox - it is the exoteric teaching or level of a text -, but which communicates "between lines" the real thought of the writer, heterodox in nature - it is the esoteric teaching or level of the speech. The reading of such authors thus requires an adapted hermeneutics, allowing to seize the gap enter the obvious fact of what show obviously the text of the author, and the truth secretly distilled behind the letter of its papers. This method of reading is the climax of works begun by Strauss from the 1920s. It is formalized at the end of the 30s, and appears with some modifications of the style of writing of the author.The studies dealing with this part of the work of the philosopher consist generally on one hand in criticizing his hermeneutic key, by confirming or by countering its relevance, or on the other hand to envisage the political and philosophic impact of the exo/esotericism. The studies attempting to understand the construction of this prism of reading through the intellectual course of Strauss remain allowing exception relatively fragmented, and attempt to highlight the art of writing by connecting it with certain references. The examinations focusing on the way the exo/esotericism forms in the course of the straussian corpus appear since a few years, and it is in particular within this field of research that is situated this thesis. Beyond, it pays attention on the own style of Strauss, by concentrating exactly on the way he conceives and makes use of categories of the exoteric and of the esoteric. The way the author seizes it and the role which they play in the economy of its thought can inform as for the way of reading it and understand his thought. Returning to the sources of the art of writing, examining its formation and observe its use by Strauss himself can give a new lighting onto the controversial theory of the writing between lines of philosophers.

7	Bilderboken som medium för konsthistorieskrivning : En analys av samverkan mellan bild och text i Ylva Hillströms & Karin Eklunds bilderbok “Hilma af Klint - kartor över osynligheten” / The picture book as a medium for art history writing : An analytical study of the relationship between image and text in Ylva Hillströms & Karin Eklunds picture book Hilma af Klint - Mapping the Invisible Rönnberg, Mollie January 2022 (has links) In this essay, the children’s picture book Hilma af Klint: maps of invisibility by Ylva Hillström and Karin Eklund is analyzed with the aim of exploring the picture book as a medium and tool for art history writing. The analysis examines how the artist Hilma af Klint is portrayed and how art history is presented, as well as placing a particular focus on analyzing the interaction between image and text. The content is examined with semiotic image analysis, an inductive literature study as well as reception aesthetics analysis. The analysis concludes that Hilma af Klint as an artist is portrayed as fearless, curious and serious, and her artistic ambition is described as the desire to understand the universe. The design of the picture book and the ability to freely place and combine images and texts in different ways means that it is possible to convey the history of the art in several ways. With the picture book, sometimes several parallel stories are told; sometimes picture and text work together to complement each other, other tims the same thing is presented in both text and picture, or the pictures tell a story of their own or provide additional information that does not appear in the text. Depending on the experience of the viewer/reader, it is possible to derive different things from the picture book, and gaps can be filled as well as be left empty, which creates excitement and curiosity about the rest of the art world. Through the illustrations representation of af Klint's work and Eklund's way of illustrating the works the images in the book relate back to the children's/viewer's own world. The design of the picture book functions as a gateway to what it is like to look at art and art books and it works to create images within the viewer.

Cette œuvre est un fruit de la civilisation du « monde chinois », et interroge les principes esthétiques et le statut de la peinture dérivés de la doctrine néo-confucéenne, doctrine elle-même ici associée à des doctrines souvent considérées comme opposées, le taoïsme et le bouddhisme. YUN Duseo invente une peinture « pré-moderne » qui met en valeur de manière nouvelle des figures humaines, les portraits en particulier, et donne une nouvelle forme à des sujets courants de la peinture chinoise, les natures mortes ou les scènes de la vie quotidienne. La peinture de YUN Duseo, influencée aussi bien par un mouvement de retour aux sources de la culture chinoise que par le contact avec la culture européenne, est étudiée principalement à travers le prisme du rapport entre peinture et écriture. / The work of YUN Duseo (1668-1715), a scholar-painter who lived during the last Korean monarchy, reflects the strong sinicization of contemporary Korean society. Indeed, such work is a product of the civilization of the ‘Chinese world’: it questions the aesthetic principles and the status of painting stemming from the Neo-Confucian doctrine, a doctrine itself associated with two often opposed doctrines, Taoism and Buddhism. YUN Duseo invented a ‘pre-modern’ painting that emphasized human figures, and particularly portraits, in a novel way and gave new form to common subjects in Chinese painting, whether still lives or scenes of everyday life.YUN Duseo’s painting, influenced by a return to the sources of Chinese culture as well as by the contact with European culture, is examined here through the prism of the relation between painting and writing.

10	The Shades of Styles : A human search for words communicating all aspects of styles. Hellerslien, Erlend January 2021 (has links) This research is an investigative attempt on the concept of style´s development to potentially noticing our diverse human history on viewing the aspect of styles, starting (in the part one) by looking into the problem of the development of styles and its characteristic of representation in terms of its messages, realties, semiotics, and human collaboration. Leading towards the human search in seeing style more commonly neutral for a more meaningful dialog. The research shows then (in the part two) the potential to build a Digital Style Dictionary and A Digital Visual Compass: A Human-Centric Guide on The Aspect of Seeing Reality’s that can support identifying aspects of multiple realities (core reality, abstract reality, surreal reality and artificial reality) — where two cases (in the part three) of visual styles get analyzed, discussed, reframed, and presented (Transpace and Swisch). Fundamentally this paper looks to provoke a discussion on what we humans want the point to be in seeing styles. The complexity is as grand as our diversity, but still, this research highlights the hope to respectfully identify the distinctive shades of styles for the sake of a more significant human dialog and inclusion. The research´s grand ambition is knowingly bigger than what it itself can grasp to complete right now (2021) fully. It proposes an idea for the near future to shape a Digital Style Dictionary and a Digital Visual Compass that works for the common human aspect of seeing styles. This research is a first attempt towards shaping the fundamental frame towards a spectrum of the style´s, that we can respectfully continue to articulate for the sake to include better human communication on the aspect of seeing distinctiveness, not that style´s stands in a capital value program between something “high” or “low.” Instead, we can now start to collaborate in shaping and building these potential tools as A Digital Style Dictionary and A Digital Visual Compass in sharing a more human-centric spectrum of styles to push the human evolution of knowledge further.
