Ce mémoire en création littéraire se compose de deux parties. La première, un roman intitulé « Dieu reconnaîtra les seins », suit les aventures de Caroline, jeune femme dans la trentaine qui, ayant subi une ablation des seins, voit sa vie basculer alors qu'elle tente de trouver une solution médico-esthétique à sa situation. Le ton enjoué du roman permet d'aborder l'aspect tragique de la vie de Caroline de façon légère. Il permet également, sous forme d'humour ironique, absurde ou même noir, de soulever des thèmes universels tels que l'amour, la solitude, le désespoir, la pauvreté et la mort. Ainsi porté, le récit évolue vers une vision tant impitoyable que bienveillante de l'humain qui, à travers les événements à la fois médiocres et grandioses de la vie de Caroline, trouve sa place dans un univers pourtant hostile. La deuxième partie du mémoire se consacre à l'étude de l'humour dans « Au bonheur des ogres » de Daniel Pennac, et plus particulièrement, à l'humour inséré entre parenthèses. Pennac utilise abondamment ce procédé humoristique, créant ainsi un récit polyphonique où plusieurs niveaux narratifs entrent en dialogue. Trois types d'humour présents dans les parenthèses sont analysés, à savoir l'humour noir, l'humour absurde et l'ironie. Cet essai fait donc écho au roman en ce qu'il se penche sur l'humour et l'ironie comme procédés littéraires. / This thesis in creative writing is composed of two parts. The first one, a novel entitled Dieu reconnaîtra les “seins”, follows the adventures of a young woman in her thirties named Caroline who, having had her breasts surgically removed, sees her life plunge into chaos as she tries to find a cosmetic and medical solution to her situation. The light tone of the novel allows for an humorous look at the tragic cirucumstances Caroline finds herself in. Following the trials and tribulations of her life, the story touches on such universal themes as love, loneliness, hopelessness, poverty and death, and evolves toward a vision of humanity that is both merciless and benevolent. The second part of the thesis is an study of humour in Daniel Pennac's Au bonheur des ogres, and more specifically, the use of parentheses as a humoristic device. Pennac frequently uses parentheses as a way to create humour, thus building a polyphonic narrative in which various levels of discourse communicate with each other. Three types of humour are present within parentheses: black humour, absurdist humour and irony. As such, the essay echoes the novel in that it looks at humour and irony in literature.

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.

TITLE: THE LANGUAGE OF MUSIC: Claudio Monteverdi as an innovator in the field of dealing with text in music. SUMMARY: The main topic of this Thesis is Claudio Monteverdi's work and its importance for the development of dealing with text in music of the late Renaissance and early Baroque period. In Monteverdi's compositions we can follow the evolution of counterpoint techniques reaching from the traditional 16th century vocal polyphony to the purely monodic approach to composition that is typical of Baroque music. The text works as a creative element that affects the author's way of working, leading him from the first experiments with the musical representation of each word in the madrigal to a dramatic expression of the text in the style of opera. In his work Monteverdi uses wordpainting to an unprecedented extent. He invents new musical expression for words that contain a strong emotional charge, like subtle rhythmic figures for joyful words, or sharp dissonances for words conveying pain. He is the first composer to achieve excellence in combining flawless technical skill with the dramatic line of the composition. His work forms an imaginary bridge between music of two periods: in the first period text is perceived as a mere "servant" of music but becomes the "ruler" of it in the later one. The Thesis...

Étudier les plaisirs féminins dans la littérature française de la Renaissance, c’est d’abord faire le constat d’une pluralité de représentations qui se regroupent autour d’un même enjeu, celui de l’honnêteté. En raison d’une forte tradition misogyne, il est en effet difficile pour une femme de concilier cet impératif social avec le plaisir. Les textes que nous étudions (récit, poésie, littérature d’idées) sont toutefois portés par une dynamique entre voix féminines et voix masculines, qui contribue à faire émerger un discours nouveau sur le plaisir féminin que nous nous proposons d’étudier. La première partie étudie les plaisirs dans l’espace conjugal. Celui-ci fait de la volupté féminine, dans la relation entre époux et dans l’adultère, à la fois une nécessité et une déviance. La deuxième partie s’attache à l’espace social et interroge les plaisirs de cour : les échanges amoureux influencés par l’amour courtois, le néo-platonisme et le pétrarquisme, et les divertissements collectifs, de la danse à la conversation. La troisième partie, consacrée à l’espace de soi, se dégage de la morale sociale dont les deux premières parties sont tributaires pour proposer une réflexion sur le plaisir comme accomplissement de soi dans la maternité, le savoir, la spiritualité et l’écriture. / The study of feminine pleasures in the sixteenth-century French literature leads to a multiplicity of representations. All of them coincide with the idea of honesty. Because of a strong misogynist ideology, women could hardly reconcile these social and moral requirements with the notion of pleasure. Nevertheless, the texts studied in this thesis (narratives, poems, essays and treatises) show a dynamic between feminine and masculine voices that gives way to new discourses on pleasure. The first part focuses on pleasure within marriage. Be it within their relationship with their spouses or in adultery, feminine sensual pleasure was considered both an honest need and a déviance. The second part deals with social pleasures: public amusements (from dance to conversations) as well as encounters between lovers, which were influenced by amour courtois, neoplatonism, and, petrarquism. The third part, dedicated to the self, breaks away from the social morals attached to the first two parts in order to study pleasure as self-accomplishment through motherhood, knowledge, spirituality and writing.

Cette étude répond à l’intitulé suivant : La fiction romanesque de la postmodernité et ses labyrinthes. L’exemple des textes d’Alain Robbe-Grillet (France, 1922-2008), de Juan José Saer (Argentine, 1937-2005) et de Boubacar Boris Diop (Sénégal, 1947-). Elle se propose de cerner, sous l’autorité méthodologique de la poétique textuelle, les diverses modalités par lesquelles le motif du labyrinthe s’impose comme substrat privilégié de la poétique du récit chez trois écrivains appartenant à des aires linguistiques et culturelles différentes. Le choix et l’examen des textes de ces trois écrivains reposent sur la volonté de montrer le déploiement de ce motif dans l’organisation interne de la fiction romanesque postmoderne. En effet, intégré dans la dynamique interne de l’oeuvre de manière très diversifiée, le motif du labyrinthe surgit dans toutes les problématiques qui traversent l’écriture romanesque postmoderne. Par commodité méthodologique et rigueur scientifique, cette étude se déploie suivant trois axes complémentaires. Tandis que le premier qui s’intitule « Le labyrinthe comme invariant obsessionnel de la fiction romanesque de la postmodernité » s’attache à faire ressortir les diverses facettes sous lesquelles ce motif se déploie dans la dynamique textuelle du récit fictionnel postmoderne ; le deuxième qui a pour titre « Le labyrinthe comme modalité constitutive de la narrativité du récit : la fiction romanesque de la postmodernité à l’épreuve de la discontinuité », s’attèle quant à lui, à examiner en quoi ce motif participe d’un projet d’écriture qui revendique la discontinuité comme principe narratif ; enfin, le troisième qui a pour intitulé « Le labyrinthe comme modalité caractéristique de l’interdiscursivité et de l’intergénéricité de la dynamique textuelle : la fiction romanesque de la postmodernité à l’épreuve de la polyphonie », entreprend pour sa part de démontrer en quoi ce motif est constitutif de la polyphonie qui gouverne la dynamique textuelle du récit fictionnel postmoderne. / This study answers the following title: Romantic fiction of postmodernity and its mazes. The example of the texts of Alain Robbe-Grillet (France, 1922-2008), of Juan José Saer (Argentina, 1937-2005) and of Boubacar Boris Diop (Senegal, 1947-). It intends to identify, under authority methodological of poetic text the various modalities by which the pattern of the labyrinth becomes established as privileged substrate of the poetic narrative in three writers belonging to different linguistic and cultural areas. The choice and examination of the texts of these three writers rest on the will to show the deployment of this pattern in the internal organization of the postmodern romantic fiction. Indeed, integrated in the internal dynamic of writing in a very diversified way, the pattern of the maze appears in all the problems which cross the romantic writing. For methodological convenience and scientific rigour, this study deploys according to three complementary axes. While the first is entitled "The labyrinth as obsessive invariant of the romantic fiction of postmodernity" sets out to bring out the different aspects in which this pattern unfolds in dynamic textual postmodern fictional narrative, the second which is entitled "The labyrinth as constitutive modality of the narrativity of the story : romantic fiction of postmodernity to the test of discontinuity", gets down to examine how this pattern is part of a writing project that claims the discontinuity principle as narrative, and the third which is entitled "The labyrinth as a characteristic modality of interdiscursivity and intergenericity textual dynamic : romantic fiction of postmodernity to the test of polyphony" undertakes to show how this pattern is constitutive of polyphony which governs the dynamic of textual postmodern fictional narrative.

A voz do trabalhador ocupa, ainda, um lugar secundário na interlocução capital x trabalho. Sua manifestação lingüística em instâncias de caráter oficial/institucional ocorre apenas nos momentos de maior tensão entre os interlocutores, em especial durante os processos trabalhistas, visando à validação/obtenção de um direito. Tal representatividade não se dá de forma direta, mas através da voz do advogado trabalhista, aqui chamado de locutor-advogado, porta-voz legitimado socialmente, que busca dirigir a argumentação no contrafluxo da voz predominante no universo do trabalho - a voz do capital. Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo mostrar como a voz do trabalhador é representada no discurso jurídico trabalhista e quais os significados dessa representatividade no mundo do trabalho. O escopo teórico utilizado é fruto do diálogo interdisciplinar entre as teorias do texto e do discurso (em particular a semântica global e seu conceito de interdiscurso, e a semântica argumentativa, com seus conceitos de polifonia e direção argumentativa) e as disciplinas direito trabalhista e sociologia do trabalho. A análise lingüístico-discursiva dar-se-á a partir de corpus composto por textos (orais e escritos) próprios a esse discurso e extraídos de um processo trabalhista típico. Os textos orais (não oficiais) produzidos no processo se constituem a origem discursiva dos textos escritos (oficiais e legais). Na transposição do oral para o escrito, a voz do trabalhador ganha estatuto diverso, porque passa a ser dirigida pela voz do locutor-advogado. Nesta pesquisa, verificar-se-á como nos textos escritos emergem, apagam-se ou permanecem de forma residual índices da voz do trabalhador. A pesquisa pretenderá ainda mostrar como é possível ao pesquisador lingüista encontrar pistas lingüísticas de heterogeneidade em discursos pretensamente homogêneos, como é o discurso jurídico trabalhista, contribuindo com subsídios de sua especialidade para a construção de um quadro do que é, ou está se tornando, o mundo do trabalho nas sociedades ocidentais modernas, nas quais o Brasil se espelha. / The worker´s voice still plays a secondary role in the interaction capital x labor. Its linguistic manifestation, of an official/institutional nature, occurs only in moments of maximum tension between interlocutors, particularly in judicial proceedings, in the area of labor relations, targeted at the authorization or obtention of a legal right. The worker´s voice is not directly represented in such processes, but rather through a specialized lawyer´s voice, herein named the locutor-lawyer, a socially sanctioned speaker, who addresses his or her arguments to a hegemonic voice in the discursive world of labor, namely the voice of capital. This research explores the representation of the worker´s voice in judicial proceedings discourse in the area of labor relations and deals with the question of the meanings attached to this kind of representation within the world of labor relations. The theoretical framework for this research is found in the interdisciplinary dialogue between theories of text and discourse (particularly global semantics with its concept of interdiscourse, and argumentative semantics with its concepts of polyphony and argumentative direction), as well as in the disciplines Law, in the area of Labor Relations, and the Sociology of Labor. The linguistic-discursive analysis focusses on a corpus of oral and written texts within the domain of Legal Discourse in the area of Labor Relations and is taken from a typical judicial proceeding in this area. The (non-official) oral texts produced in the course of the judicial proceedings constitute the discursive source for the written texts (in this case, both official and legal documents). In the transposition from the oral to the written proceedings, the worker´s voice acquires a different status, as it is now under the locutor-lawyer´s supervision. This research explores the ways in which the worker´s voice emerges, is deleted or leaves traces in the written texts that constitute the judicial proceedings. Another aim of the research is to demonstrate how the linguist–researcher may find linguistic clues of heterogeneity in discourses (as the legal discourse in the area of labor relations) which are, at first sight, homogeneous. Thus, the linguist–researcher, drawing on linguistic-discursive tools, may contribute to an understading of how representations of labor relations in contemporary Western societies, including Brazil, are being shaped.

O discurso empresarial institucional tem se mostrado bastante eficiente em sua tarefa legitimadora, consolidando novas formas de ver o mundo e atuar nele. O discurso empresarial institucional, aparentemente objetivo e homogêneo, constrói a si mesmo através de um bem articulado jogo polifônico, em que a voz de um locutor (L) - que representa a voz institucional - \"orquestra\" as demais vozes que surgem nos tetos de modo a abafar as que se opõem à direção argumentativa que L pretende impor. Tal direção argumentativa dá-se necessariamente no sentido de afirmar determinada ideologia. Considerando a importância que o discurso empresarial institucional assume nos dias de hoje, ao consolidar-se como um dos principais aliados de um capitalismo renovado, em que os discursos neoliberal, da privatização, globalização, qualidade e preservação do meio ambiente formam a base do pensamento econômico moderno, torna-se necessário compreender melhor sua dinâmica de produção, o que inclui desnudar as bases ideológicas que o sustentam. Desta forma, a partir de conceitos da pragmática, em particular da semântica argumentativa de Oswald Ducrot, são analisados neste trabalho textos institucionais de certa empresa privada para se verificar como as diferentes vozes se articulam e como desta articulação se legitima uma ideologia que cria, mantém e difunde significações. / Institutional business discourse has proved efficient in its legitimatory task of consolidating new worldviews and forms of acting in the world. In its apparent objectivity and homogeneity, institutional business discourse develops in a well articulated polyphonic game. In this game, the voice of a locator (L) - which represents the institutional voice - \"orchestrates\" the other voices that occur in the text in an attempt to erase those voices which move in an opposite direction relative to the argumentative orientation of the discourse. The argumentative direction of the discourse necessarily leads to the affirmation of a particular ideology. Institutional business discourse plays an important role nowadays, as one of the main allies of a renewed capitalism, which finds its basis in modern economic thinking informed by neoliberal discourse, the discourse of privatization, that of globalization, and those of standards of quality and preservation of the natural environment. Thus, it becomes necessary to better understand the conditions of its production, which presupposes unmasking the ideological basis that underlies institutional business discourse. On the basis of concepts derived from studies in the field of pragmatics, particularly those from Oswald Ducrot’s argumentative semantics, a number of institutional texts from certain private company were examined, with a view to investigating how the different voices featuring in such texts articulate with one another and by so doing legitimate an ideology that creates, maintains, and spreads particular types of meaning.

[pt] O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir, na prosa de ficção brasileira da década de 1990, a presença de estratégias discursivas que revelam processos complexos de abordagem do confronto entre o eu e o outro. Trata-se da presença de instâncias narrativas impregnadas de discursos sobre a alteridade, o que se evidencia em contos e romances cujos enredos pautamse no confronto de subjetividades, etnias e culturas. Para discutir essa questão, procuramos identificar, nas narrativas analisadas, o que denominamos como a presença de vozes etnográficas, a partir de aproximações entre o campo da literatura e da antropologia, considerando que o procedimento de leitura e escrita do outro faz-se presente tanto no trabalho do etnógrafo quanto do ficcionista. Tal procedimento leva-nos, enfim, a considerar a polifonia como um traço fundamental do processo de escrita e leitura da alteridade em nossa ficção contemporânea. / [en] The objective of this study is to discuss the presence, in 1990´s Brazilian prose fiction, of discursive strategies that reveal complex processes of approaching the confrontation between the I and the Other. We deal with the presence of narrative instances impregnated with speeches on alterity, what is evidenced in stories and romances whose plots are based on the confrontation of subjectivities, ethnic groups and cultures. In order to discuss this subject, we tried to identify, in the narratives analyzed, what we denominate the presence of ethnographic voices, starting with approximations among the literary and the anthropologic fields, considering that procedures of the other´s reading and writing are made present as much in the ethnographer s as in the fictionist´s work. Such procedure lets us, finally, consider the polyphony as a fundamental feature of the alterity´s writing and reading process in our contemporary fiction.

To that end, we chosen news that deals with the same fact: the Datafolha results about on the evaluation of the government of President Dilma Rousseff published on February 7, 2015. The reported fact refers to the low popularity of the petista - linked to the Workers' Party (PT) - and the political situations that triggered this drop. We highlight a corpus that is limited to three news items, taken from three different online midias. According to the principles of Theory Argumentative Semantic, from Oswald Ducrot's (1987), we analyze the news in order to perceive polyphony in the journalists' discourses and, therefore, to capture the argumentative orientation in the news. The results point to the conclusion that the same fact may have different meaning depending on the media which relays and the objective of the communicative reporter. To for this kind of meaning, the argumentative operators and the implicit act as devices that indicate the voices of other enunciators in the news and reveal the saying assumed by the journalist. / Nesta disserta??o, fazemos uma an?lise sem?ntico-argumentativa, a partir dos sentidos orientados pelos impl?citos e operadores ? como ?ndice de argumentatividade e polifonia em not?cias online. Para tanto, escolhemos not?cias que tratam de um mesmo fato: os resultados da pesquisa Datafolha sobre a avalia??o do governo da presidenta Dilma Rousseff publicada em 07 de fevereiro de 2015. O fato noticiado refere-se ? baixa popularidade da petista ? vinculada ao Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) ? e ?s situa??es pol?ticas que desencadearam essa baixa. Destacamos um corpus que se limita a tr?s not?cias, retiradas em tr?s suportes online diferentes. Sob os princ?pios da Teoria da Argumenta??o na L?ngua (TAL), de Oswald Ducrot (1987), analisamos os enunciados das not?cias com a finalidade de perceber a polifonia nos discursos dos jornalistas e, por conseguinte, captar a orienta??o argumentativa no texto noticiado. Os resultados apontam para a conclus?o de que um mesmo fato pode ter sentido distinto a depender da m?dia que o veicula e dos prop?sitos comunicativos do jornalista. Para essa interpreta??o, os impl?citos e os operadores argumentativos funcionam como dispositivos que indicam as vozes de outros enunciadores nas not?cias e revelam o dizer assumido pelo jornalista.
