Édition critique de la correspondance de Juliette Drouet à Victor Hugo. Année 1841 / Juliette Drouet’s letters to Victor Hugo, edition and study for the year 1841Sifferlen, Gwenaelle 13 January 2017 (has links)
Julienne Gauvain, dite Juliette Drouet, est principalement connue pour avoir été, pendant cinquante ans, la compagne de Victor Hugo. Mais elle fut aussi, et surtout, une prodigue épistolière qui écrivit, dès 1833 et jusqu’à sa mort en 1883, plus de 22 000 lettres ‒ qu’elle appelait « ses restitus ‒ à son cher poète. Précieusement conservées par l’amant qui les confia, à la mort de Juliette, au neveu de cette dernière, Louis Koch, elles sont aujourd’hui progressivement publiées dans une édition en ligne, afin de mettre à la disposition du public et des chercheurs l’intégralité de cette formidable correspondance. L'édition critique et scientifique ‒ comprenant transcriptions, annotations savantes et manuscriptologiques, notices explicatives, index, glossaire ‒ de 568 lettres de 1841, alors que le couple célèbre ses huit ans d’amour, en montre les intérêts biographique, documentaire et littéraire. En effet, ces restitus permettent d’étudier au jour le jour l’existence de Juliette Drouet, fraîchement retirée de la vie théâtrale et publique pour se consacrer pleinement à son amour, et de Victor Hugo qui, élu à l’Académie française le 7 janvier et en pleine rédaction du Rhin, fait face à des procès littéraires et familiaux, prend ses premières notes sur les temps présents et encadre les reprises d’Hernani, Ruy Blas et Angelo, tyran de Padoue. Ces lettres sont par ailleurs des témoignages précis sur la condition féminine, les liens sentimentaux, les mœurs, les petits détails de la vie quotidienne du XIXe siècle et elles fournissent des renseignements précieux sur le contexte historique, politique, médical, scientifique, social et artistique de la monarchie de Juillet et du règne de Louis-Philippe. Enfin, cette véritable masse textuelle, outre sa valeur stylistique et littéraire propre, suscite une réflexion générique de par son statut hybride de journal épistolaire. / Julienne Gauvain, alias Juliette Drouet, is mainly well-known for her fifty-year relationship with Victor Hugo. But first and foremost, she was a lavish letter writer who wrote more than 22,000 letters to her dear poet – calling them her ‘restitus’- from 1833 until she died in 1883. They were safely kept by her lover, who entrusted them to Louis Koch – Juliette Drouet’s nephew – after she died. Today, they are gradually published online so as to provide the general public, as well as researchers, with this complete astounding correspondence. The critical and scientific edition – including transcriptions, scholar and manuscript-related annotations, explanatory notes, index, glossary – of 568 letters dating from 1841 (8th anniversary of the couple’s love story) highlights their biographical, documentary and literary interests. Indeed these ‘restitus’ allow a day-to-day study of the life of Juliette Drouet, who had just withdrawn from theatrical and public life in order to fully devote herself to her love, and of Victor Hugo who, freshly elected to the Académie française on January 7th and in the process of writing Le Rhin, had to face literary and family trials, started taking his first notes on the present times and was supervising the revivals of Hernani, Ruy Blas and Angelo, tyran de Padoue. These letters also account for an accurate testimony on the status of women, the sentimental ties, the customs and all sorts of small details of the 19th century daily life. As well, they supply precious information concerning the historical, political, medical, scientific, social and artistic context of the July Monarchy and the reign of Louis-Philippe. Finally, apart from its own stylistic and literary value, this true mass of text arouses a generic reflection given its hybrid status of epistolary diary.

Édition critique des lettres de Juliette Drouet à Victor Hugo de 1874-1875 / Juliette Drouet’s letters to Victor Hugo, edition and study for 1874-1875Heute, Véronique 29 June 2017 (has links)
Pendant cinquante ans, de 1833 à 1883, Juliette Drouet écrivit environ vingt-deux mille lettres à Victor Hugo. Le corpus étudié, composé de 653 lettres plus une enveloppe, propose la lecture continue des lettres, transcrites et annotées. Il s’inscrit dans un projet de l’édition intégrale de cette correspondance, dont Florence Naugrette, Professeur à l’Université Paris-Sorbonne, est la directrice. Ces lettres ont un triple intérêt : biographique, historique et littéraire. Juliette Drouet décrit la nouvelle vie de famille de Victor Hugo qui a décidé de réunir ses petits-enfants, sa belle-fille ainsi que Juliette Drouet, dans le même immeuble du 21 de la rue de Clichy, à des étages différents. Ce déménagement est annoncé dès le début de l’année 1874 et occupe nombre de lettres, tout comme l’aménagement du second étage où habite Juliette Drouet et où Victor Hugo travaille et reçoit ses invités lors de ses dîners et ses soirées. De plus, ces lettres sont un témoignage de la vie quotidienne d’une maîtresse de maison à la fin du XIXe siècle, et de ses domestiques. Elles évoquent aussi la proximité avec les animaux, l’usage des médicaments et donnent des renseignements précieux sur les relations entre les malades, la santé et la médecine. Leur intérêt littéraire se révèle dans les comptes rendus de l’accueil de Quatre-vingt-treizième et des lectures du Rappel, en plus du genre hybride de journal épistolaire que ces lettres possèdent. Beaucoup plus que la maîtresse, Juliette Drouet apparaît comme l’épouse de Victor Hugo. Il légitime cette relation par les cinq lettres qu’il lui écrit chaque année et montre que Juliette Drouet est bien la pierre angulaire de son existence. / For fifty years, from 1833 to 1883, Juliette Drouet wrote about twenty-two thousand letters to Victor Hugo. The corpus studied, 653 letters more one envelope, offers the continuous reading of the letters, transcribed and annotated. It is part of a project of the complete edition of this correspondence, which Florence Naugrette, Professor at the University Paris-Sorbonne, is the Director. These letters have a triple interest : biographical, historical and literary. Juliette Drouet describes new family life of Victor Hugo who decided to meet her grandchildren, daughter-in-law and Juliette Drouet, different floors in the same building of the 21 street of Clichy. This move is announced early in the year 1874 and occupies number of letters, just as the development of the second floor where lives of Juliette Drouet and where Victor Hugo works and receives his guests at his dinner and his evenings. Moreover, these letters are a testimony of the daily life of a housewife at the end of the 19th century, and her servants. They also evoke the proximity with animals, the use of drugs and give valuable information on the relationships between patients, health and medicine. Their literary interest is revealed in the reviews of Quatrevingt-Treize and the readings of Le Rappel, in addition to the hybrid kind of epistolary diary that these letters have. Victor Hugo legitimate this relationship with the five letters that he write her every year and shows that Juliette Drouet is the cornerstone of his existence.

Character Narrators, the Implied Author, and the Authorial Audience: A Rhetorical and Ethical Reading of Octavia E. Butler’s Parable of the TalentsMelkner Moser, Linda January 2020 (has links)
This essay considers the interplay between character narrators, the implied author, and the authorial audience in Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Talents. The aim of the study was to investigate how narrators, the implied author, and readers position themselves in relation to each other and in relation to the novel’s ethical dimensions. The theoretical framework is based on James Phelan’s theories on the rhetorical and ethical aspects of fiction. The essay argues that the implied author’s communication to the authorial audience is one of the reasons that the novel, like its prequel Parable of the Sower, often succeeds to function as warnings to the audience of dangers ahead. This is especially true regarding one of the implied author’s most consistent messages to the audience throughout the Parable novels: every choice has consequences, and those consequences need to be considered when we decide how to act and react in different circumstances, both as individuals and as a society.

PER UN'EDIZIONE CRITICA COMMENTATA DEGLI EPISTOLARI DI FELICE FELICIANO / FOR A CRITICAL COMMENTED EDITION OF THE LETTERS OF FELICE FELICIANOAZZOLINI, CHIARA 14 May 2021 (has links)
Le raccolte epistolari di Felice Feliciano (1433-1479?) sono affidate a quattro manoscritti, di cui tre autografi e uno apografo; il corpus totale delle lettere ammonta a 189 pezzi, di cui 76 a testimoniale plurimo. Questo lavoro punta per la prima volta a ricostruire il quadro critico di questa complessa tradizione e a definire i prolegomena a una futura edizione degli epistolari. Il primo capitolo traccia il profilo biografico dell’autore e ne inquadra la produzione nel panorama dell’epistolografia quattrocentesca, mentre il secondo è dedicato alla descrizione codicologica e paleografica degli esemplari. Il terzo capitolo restituisce ogni epistolario a un contesto d’allestimento verosimile in una circostanza spazio-temporale precisa, sulla base dei dati interni a ciascun testimone. Il quarto capitolo contiene la trattazione complessiva e non più individuale degli epistolari, allo scopo di individuare una ratio organizzativa nell’assetto delle varie raccolte, tramite il riconoscimento di un’ossatura portante costituita da nuclei di lettere a testimoniale plurimo. Il quinto capitolo offre uno specimen editoriale, ovvero l’edizione critica commentata del nucleo individuato come il più antico, composto da 29 lettere e tramandato da tre mss. su quattro. L’elaborato termina con un’appendice nella quale, attraverso i regesti delle lettere, si propone il modello da seguire per la costruzione dell’edizione integrale degli epistolari felicianei. / The epistolary collections of Felice Feliciano (1433-1479?) are entrusted to four manuscripts, three autographs and one apograph; the total corpus of letters amounts to 189 pieces, 76 of which are in multiple attestation. This work aims for the first time to reconstruct the critical picture of this complex tradition and to fix the prolegomena for a future edition of the epistles. The first chapter traces the author’s biographical profile and sets his production against the panorama of 15th-century epistolography, while the second chapter is dedicated to the codicological and palaeographical description of the manuscripts. The third chapter restores each collection to a plausible setting in a precise space-time situation, on the basis of its internal features. The fourth chapter deals with the four books as a whole and no longer individually, with the aim of identifying a rational organisation in the arrangement of the various collections, through the recognition of a bearing framework made up of groups of letters in multiple attestation. The fifth chapter offers an editorial specimen, that is the critical commented edition of the group identified as the oldest, consisting of 29 letters and handed down by three out of four manuscripts. The thesis ends with an appendix in which, by means of the epistles’ registers, the model to be followed for the construction of the complete edition of Feliciano’s letters is proposed.

尼克拉斯‧史派克羅曼史之女性愉悅研究: 以<<手札情緣>><<瓶中信>>與<<分手信>>為例 / Female Pleasure in Nicholas Sparks' Romances: The Notebook, Message in a Bottle and Dear John張廷伊, Chang, Ting Yi Unknown Date (has links)
基於生理、心理與社會因素，女性愉悅較男性複雜。本論文試圖藉由美國當代暢銷作家尼克拉斯‧史派克的愛情小說為文本，結合許多性別相關的理論去探討女性愉悅。史派克的羅曼史是當代文本，唯美的純愛是其特色，然而，這些帶來美好感受的愛情故事，是否是讀者們真心嚮往的美好愛情? 讀者在享受閱讀文本的當下，或許也默默地被一種僵化的愛情公式所限制，所謂的快樂，也許只是一種暫時的麻痺。
本篇論文從幾個不同角度切入去分析女性愉悅和羅曼史的關聯，第一章以丁尼斯坦的理論為切入點，就心理與社會層面探究為何女性在選擇伴侶上比男性有著更多限制，其理論也連結到嬰兒期由母親養育對於不同性別成年後伴侶關係有影響 ; 第二章以史派克這三本羅曼史<<手札情緣>><<瓶中信>><<分手信>>文本為主，並結合性別理論去分析羅曼史，探討其女性在羅曼史中的真相為何，文本裡也有許多部份展現出女性的許多壓抑；第三章以讀者回應為主要分析，藉由社群網站臉書的讀者真實回應，並結合過去其他做過相關讀者回應的理論與實際田野調查，分析不同時候讀者都藉由羅曼史得到快樂，不同的讀者群有共同與相異的讀者回應；第四章從這三本羅曼史的書信體形式，研究他者的缺席如何帶來快樂與痛苦，遠距離的愛情造就書信的存在，這其中的等待與期待，盼望與失望，主體不斷找尋失落客體的過程，都不斷創造失落與愉悅；第五章結論綜合前四章論點，提出女性要真正愉悅的努力方向。 / Due to biological, psychological and social reasons, female pleasure is seen as much more complicated than male pleasure. In this thesis, I try to analyse female pleasure by applying gender theories to the romances of Nicholas Sparks. Sparks is a contemporary writer mainly producing pure love stories. Are these love stories the ideal that readers pursue? When readers get pleasure from reading romance, they may be brainwashed unconsciously and limited by a fixed pattern of love. So-called happiness might be a temporary escape.
This thesis attempts to analyse the relationship between female pleasure and romance from several perspectives. Chapter 1 assesses Dorothy Dinnerstenin’s viewpoint that women face more psychological and societal constraints when choosing a partner. The mother takes care of children when they are infants, leading to differentiation of the opposite sex as they grow up. Chapter 2 examines three of Sparks’ romances – The Notebook, Message in a Bottle and Dear John – in the context of various theories to analyse the truth in romance and how repression is reflected in these texts. In Chapter 3, readers’ responses are the main focus. I have used readers’ responses gathered from Facebook and have made a connection with other romance reader responses. I have also attempted to combine both the similar and different viewpoints in Radwan’s Reading Romance and Linda K. Christian-Smith’s Becoming a Woman through Romance with my own analysis. In Chapter 4, I have used the epistolary form of these three romances to research how the lack of the other brings pleasure and pain. The epistolary form stems from long distance relationships, and during the process of waiting letters, the subject keeps finding the lost object and acquires pleasure and pain again and again. Chapter 5 is my conclusion and proposes a way for women to find real pleasure.

Romantic posthumous life writing : inter-stitching genres and forms of mourning and commemorationChiou, Tim Yi-Chang January 2012 (has links)
Contemporary scholarship has seen increasing interest in the study of elegy. The present work attempts to elevate and expand discussions of death and survival beyond the ambit of elegy to a more genre-inclusive and ethically sensitive survey of Romantic posthumous life writings. Combining an ethic of remembrance founded on mutual fulfilment and reciprocal care with the Romantic tendency to hybridise different genres of mourning and commemoration, the study re- conceives 'posthumous life' as the 'inexhaustible' product of endless collaboration between the dead, the dying and the living. This thesis looks to the philosophical meditations of Francis Bacon, John Locke and Emmanuel Levinas for an ethical framework of human protection, fulfilment and preservation. In an effort to locate the origin of posthumous life writing, the first chapter examines the philosophical context in which different genres and media of commemoration emerged in the eighteenth century. Accordingly, it will commence with a survey of Enlightenment attitudes toward posthumous sympathy and the threat of death. The second part of the chapter turns to the tangled histories of epitaph, biography, portraiture, sepulchre and elegy in the writings of Samuel Johnson, Henry Kett, Vicesimus Knox, William Godwin and William Wordsworth. The Romantic culture of mourning and commemoration inherits the intellectual and generic legacies of the Enlightenment. Hence, Chapter Two will try to uncover the complex generic and formal crossovers between epitaph, extempore, effusion, elegy and biography in Wordsworth's 'Extempore Effusion upon the Death of James Hogg' (1835-7) and his 'Epitaph' (1835-7) for Charles Lamb. However, the chapter also recognises the ethical repercussions of Wordsworth's inadequate, even mortifying, treatment of a fellow woman writer in his otherwise successful expression of ethical remembrance. To address the problem of gender in Romantic memorialisation, Chapter Three will take a close look at Letitia Elizabeth Landon' s reply to Wordsworth's incompetent defence of Felicia Hemans. Mediating the ambitions and anxieties of her subject, as well as her public image and private pain, 'Felicia Hemans' (1838) is an audacious composite of autograph, epitaph, elegy, corrective biography and visual portraiture. The two closing chapters respond to Thomas Carlyle's outspoken confidence in 'Portraits and Letters' as indispensable aids to biographies. Chapter Four identifies a tentative connection between the aesthetic of visual portraiture and the ethic of life writing. To demonstrate the convergence of both artistic and humane principles, this cross-media analysis will first evaluate Sir Joshua Reynolds's memoirs of his deceased friends. Then, it will compare Wordsworth's and Hemans's verse reflections on the commemorative power and limitation of iconography. The last chapter assesses the role of private correspondence in the continuation of familiar relation and reciprocal support. Landon's dramatic enactment of a 'feminine Robinson Crusoe' in her letters from Africa urges the unbroken offering of service and remembrance to a fallen friend through posthumous correspondence. The concluding section will consider the ethical implications for the belated memorials and services furnished by friends and colleagues in the wake of her death.

Châteaux intérieurs : du théâtre de la mémoire aux espaces imaginaires / Mind palaces : from memory theatre to imaginary spacesHirzel, Lara 17 November 2016 (has links)
Châteaux intérieurs, du théâtre de la mémoire aux espaces imaginaires est une thèse composée de trois films, d’une installation vidéo et de deux scénarios. Ces travaux reposent sur des interrogations liées au lieu et à sa mémoire. Des mnémotechniques rhétoriques de l’antiquité aux usages du flashback dans le montage cinématographique, cette recherche traverse les champs de la photographie, des arts plastiques, de la littérature et du cinéma afin d’inventer ses propres usages plastiques de concepts philo- sophiques. Chaque projet développe sa façon propre d’aborder le sujet de la représentation d’un espace fantasmé, imaginé; façons liées au « genre » des propositions, à la place laissée au spectateur et, au cœur même des films, à la multiplicité des subjectivités des personnages. Ainsi, le film Demeure convoque saint Augustin et l’art de la mémoire tandis que Sirènes joue des effets de montage et de réminiscences. Les Passages secrets lie lieux réels et espaces fictionnels par l’installation in situ dans le village de Binic. La déambulation est alors une autre manière de rejouer le trajet discursif de la méthode des loci. Le scénario Sans Perceval, adapté des Vagues de Virginia Woolf, singularise quant à lui une multiplicité de points de vue sur un même temps partagé dans un lieu unique. D’une autre manière, Les Atomes joue avec la figure de la baleine comme lieu symbolique sur lequel achoppent et divergent les imaginaires. Enfin, en utilisant l’idée d’espace intérieur dans la fiction même, le projet des Châteaux intérieurs propose une voie d’actualisation d’anciennes propositions philosophiques et théologiques, autour d’une variation moderne du personnage de sainte Thérèse d’Avila. Ce dernier scénario agrège ainsi plusieurs concepts fréquemment évoqués, repris, mentionnés dans la topique chrétienne, ici distordus, transformés et utilisés dans la fiction même. / The thesis Mind Palaces, from Memory Theatre to Imaginary Spaces is composed of three films, one video installation and two scripts. These works focus on questions of places and their memory. From ancient rhetorical mnemonics to the use of flashbacks in film editing, this study covers the fields of photography, fine arts, literature and film, in order to come up with its own artistic interpretation of philosophical concepts. Each project develops its own way of broaching the representation of a dreamt-up, imagined space; be it relating to the "genre" of proposals, to the role given to the audience, or, at the very heart of the films, to the multi- plicity of subjectivities of the characters. Thus, the film Remains evokes Saint Augustine and the art of memory, whilst Mermaids plays with various editing and reminiscence effects. Secret Passages links real places and fictional spaces through the in situ installation in the village of Binic, and the act of wandering therefore beco- mes another way of replaying the discursive journey in the method of loci. As for the Without Percival script, based on Virginia Woolf's The Waves, it differentiates between multiple points of view on a given moment shared in a single place. In a different way, Atoms plays with the whale as a symbolic place against which imaginations wash up and diverge. Finally, by using the idea of an interior space within the fic- tion itself, the Mind Palaces project provides a way of updating ancient philosophical and theological theories, based on a modern variation of Saint Teresa of Ávila. This last script combines a number of concepts that are frequently alluded to, revisited and mentioned in Christianity, and are here distorted, transformed and used in the fiction itself.

Les correspondances amoureuses de Joë Bousquet : espace d'identité et d'altérité / Joë Bousquet's love correspondences : space of identity and othernessBie, Zhi 15 December 2017 (has links)
Au coeur de l’existence et de l’oeuvre de Bousquet(18971950) se trouve la blessure qu’il reçut à la guerre de 14-18 et qui le condamna à la paralysie. Cette expérience tragique fut la source d’une oeuvre originale et diverse, dans laquelle les correspondances, et plus particulièrement les correspondances amoureuses, tiennent une place importante. Elles sont l’espace dans lequel se déploie une quête d’identité qui passe par la relation à l’altérité, et plus précisément, par la relation amoureuse. L’écriture est vécue par Bousquet comme une tentative de salut, une lutte contre le mal, une quête du sens et de la vérité à travers le langage. Cette écriture intime sonde les profondeurs intérieures de l’homme et s’élève vers la hauteur spirituelle par l’Amour. La recherche de l’unité et de l’essentiel conduit progressivement à l’expression d’une vision du monde qui est aussi une poétique et un enseignement sur la « vraie vie ». / At the core of Joë Bousquet’s life and work (18971950) lies the wound he received during WWI which was to leave him paralysed. Such a tragic experience brought about a unique though diverse achievement, especially through his love letters. Indeed they provide matter for an identity questwhich means how one relates to others, more particularly when love is involved. For Bousquet writing is tantamount to reaching for salvation, it compares with fighting back evil, it is like a quest for meaning and truth by means of words. That deepseated writing probes the inner parts of the human soul, eventually rising up to spiritual heights by means of love. The search for unity and the essential truth also gradually results in a poetical viewing of the world, as well as a lesson of ‘true life’.

The dryland diaries2014 September 1900 (has links)
The Dryland Diaries is a multigenerational narrative in the epistolary style, a tale of four women, central character Luka; her mother Lenore; grandmother Charlotte; and great-grandmother Annie – cast in the Quebecoise tradition of the roman du terroir, invoking place and family, the primal terroir of a storyteller. The novel is driven by three acts of violence – the possible murder of Annie’s husband, Jordan, by her Hutterite father; the rape of Charlotte; and the probable murder of Lenore by a notorious serial killer. Set in rural Saskatchewan and Vancouver, Luka, a single mother, finds Annie’s and Charlotte’s journals in the basement of her farm home, where both her predecessors also lived. She reads their stories while attempting to come to terms with her search for her missing mother, and with her attraction to her former flame, Earl, now married. Luka learns that Jordan disappeared shortly after the Canadian government enacted conscription for farmers in the First World War, when Annie became a stud horsewoman, her daughter Charlotte born before the war ended. Letters and newspaper clippings trace the family’s life through the drought and Great Depression; then Charlotte’s diaries reveal her rape at Danceland during the Second World War. Her daughter, Lenore, grows up off-balance emotionally, and abandons her daughters. Luka returns to Vancouver and learns her mother’s fate. Told from Luka’s point of view, in first-person narrative with intercutting diary excerpts and third-person narratives, the novel examines how violence percolates through generations. It also examines how mothers influence their children, the role of art, how the natural world influences a life, and questions our definition of “home.” At its heart, the novel is a story about what makes a family a family, about choices we make toward happiness, and about how violence perpetuates itself through the generations. Inspired by Margaret Lawrence’s The Stone Angel, Carol Shields’ The Stone Diaries, and the place-particular writing of Annie Proulx and Guy Vanderhaeghe, The Dryland Diaries paints a family portrait of loss, hope and redemption, locating it on the boundaries of historical fiction, firmly within the realm of epistolary and intergenerational narrative.
