Abstract:
Cette étude examine la reconstruction de la figure d'auteur de Jean Giono après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, en évaluant ses fondements littéraires et historiques. Écrivain célèbre et reconnu depuis la fin des années 1920, Giono se retrouve au sortir de la guerre dans une situation d'ostracisme : inscrit sur la « liste noire » des auteurs accusés de collaboration, démodé à l'heure de l'existentialisme, Giono doit, à l'âge de cinquante ans, repartir de zéro. Les épreuves de la guerre et de la prison, l'échec de son combat pour la paix et les « vraies richesses », ont en outre fortement ébranlé s

Abstract:
For all the critical attention paid to the author in literary theory and criticism, there has been no study of the film medium’s fascination with authors and authorship. Every year, Hollywood produces numerous films about poets, playwrights, novelists, and screenwriters. This thesis explores the narrative and cinematic potential of the author. In broad terms, it is an exercise in genre criticism, establishing the defining characteristics of films characterising authors. It is also a very specific type of genre criticism, taking a cognitivist approach that defines the author as a set of histor

Abstract:
Whilst the idealisation of extreme slenderness is widely recognised as a problematic issue, the negative portrayal of larger individuals is rarely criticised for its link with stigmatisation and problems with self-esteem. To the contrary, the representation of larger individuals in dehumanising terms – whether in news reports, advertising and research accounts – is generally regarded as a necessary means to encourage the pursuit of a ‘better’, ‘healthier’ self. However, these negative stereotypical portrayals – generally excluding the perspective and consent of those depicted – can also have a

Abstract:
The orans, although a gesture with a long ‘pagan’ past, was easily adopted by Christians for its symbolic meanings of prayer and piety and quickly attained a number of other more nuanced meanings as it was refined and reused. By restricting the scope of this thesis to the orans in the Christian catacombs of Rome, it becomes possible to approach the figure from a multi-directional perspective, not merely concerned with what the gesture meant to the Christian, but with its literary and material pedigrees, its transition to Christian art, and its cultural significance.
