Chevalier, Fanny. "Le désir au féminin et ses avatars." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012AIXM3097.
Full textThe psychoanalytic literature tends to locate women's desire stake as to be desired, that is reducing her desire's expression to a consent of the Other's desire. But what weaves beyond the consent of « making oneself an object » ? There's not about distinguish a pure feminine desire, but to identify the specificities of a women desire playing in sexual relationship ; that is, to explore the specific stakes and angst of desire's expression, regarding her special registration in castration and the place that the sexual relatioshipn assigns her. The feminine desire's dimension can not be tackled regardless of the way each women confront herself to the mystery of femininity – as it emerges or not through the ravage of the mother's relation. The deployment of a thought based on the transformations of feminine construction forms the condition necessary to approach the problematic focusing on desire – the study on ravage explores the tribulations of women's relation to image en body. It is then possible to distinguish three logics by which women « make themselves an object » : the everything or nothing logic, the mystery of femininity is here saturated by an ideal and a call of knowledge ; the short-circuit logic , femininity is here approached on the bases of a black hole ; the not-all logic, based on the acceptation of this mystery and the latitude that this negotiation generates

Full textFor me, art is identifying oneself with the “Other”. This thesis, then, is an introspective examination of my work from the standpoint of femininity and sexuality – an obsession of mine that I became aware of thanks to other women artists. Throughout my work, the whole issue of woman as an artist has evolved along two lines : the difference between genders, and their respective interpretation of sexuality. Within this aesthetic evolution, anxiety and doubt have been inspiring and guiding me towards a change in my creative mentality. Though femininity is not an artistic criterion and sexuality is merely a taboo, they are nevertheless manifest in women's art. This anamnesis gives an added dimension to the negativeness of my personal experience (Chora), bringing me back to the origin of my quest, and leads me on towards the frontier of revolt. Ultimately, art is the hope to go beyond one's own limits/limitations, and it is my hope that each of my works is actually a rebirth. Through "self-sculpture", I am searching for a reflective methodology as well as for a form of psychological therapy. The mimetic mirror is linking the image of art to that of desire in the anamnesis of the body, an image that adjusts itself as in a cultural “negotiation” (between what is taboo and what is sacred, between model and obstacle). Figuratively speaking, the association by similarity constitutes a “point of contact” that is inexpressible. Creation is an expression of my thirst after the Word - to paraphrase Roland Barthe’s “j’ai faim du Mot”. The silence of desire occurs within the épochè of sexuality, the doubt as to one’s femininity. I enter the interactive space combining “I-you-she” whose reconciliation can finally lead to liberation. Based on such a paradoxical desire, my research and quest aim at legitimizing and reasserting my body. The intent here is to show that art can be as diverse, marginal and subversive in its manifestations as the subject of desire, whose liberation depends on its materialization
Lauvaux, Léonie. "Broder la pornographie. À la recherche d'un désir féminin." Thesis, Rennes 2, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018REN20079/document.
Full textThis thesis aims to interrogate how women artists use pornography in the subversiv stitch. This reflection might seem paradoxical. Why do women artists embroider pictures of objectified women ? Why use embroidery ? And why appropriate pornography that is made by men for men ? The analysis of a large corpus of embroiedered works, though the lens of gender studies and porn studies, allows to seize the issues of this peculiar approach. Women artists use a medium defined as essentialist to decompose – from the inside – the patriarchal values inherited from the textile tradition. Through the embroidered representation of the sexual – even of their own sexuality – women artist are led to question their own gender identity. The Embroidered sexual allows one to reappropriate their body and imaginary – and to interrogate themself about their identity (through a medium primarily perceived as gendered). This construction of the self is submitted to a double paradox, hich is the use of a feminine medium – subverted by artistic hijacking – and pictures of objectified female bodies, whereas the whole purpose is actually to reappropriate those bodies. Somewhere between those paradoxes might emerge and be thought the identity – of woman and artist – in a androcentric society
Lombard, Géraldine. "Du corps féminin au corps du texte dans l'œuvre de Pierre Jean Jouve." Nice, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997NICE2016.
Full textJouve's work contains a mystery which closely associates the image of the woman with specific themes : sim, eros and death. Our research, focused on eros, aims to show how jouve, whose imagination was triggered by women he actually met, raises their image to a literary myth. First, we have studied jouve's fascination for the female body. It comprises fantasmatic characteristics which make the woman the object of all fetishisms. Through that sublimation, Jouve considers her body as a pure work of art, thus taking the risk of deshumanizing the characters who become symbols or real metaphorical reconstructions. Then, we have show the importance of erotism and its place in the construction of the work. The female body is the centre point of a stage-setting ; it expresses a seduction transformed, by jouve, into either a creative energy (the foster mother image) or a destructive power (the femme fatale image) to enlighten its whole duality. Next, we have considered the links between jouve's own own biography and his fancy to reconstruct the model woman he offers us. Transfigured reality is raised to the rank of a myth thanks to a unique construction in which novel and poetry are complementary. After 1935, his writing becomes the true heroine of the work in which the belved and departed woman survives. Finally, an analysis has been made of the "corpus" of the text in which the tension binds the words together and creates a writing of desire. Altogether, the work shows an increasing build-up of erotism. Jouve experiments the power of language and the feminine character of writing. With words, he conveys a passionate relationship which enables him to fight loneliness, death and leads him on to the path of salvation. From the female body. . . To the body of the text, from his inspiration to the construction and even to his writing, we have analysed all the stages of creation and its secret correspondances

Full textThe psychoanalytical clinic and the social field show today a push of female subverting the male world, and with it the prescribed standards by the phallic thought. Since the fall of the patriarchate, initiated by S. Of Beauvoir, an emancipation of the women's jouissance is observed indeed, expressed by a desire to undertake and a change of their behavior in love. Ln fact, the feminist revolution allowed the women's structural desire to leave her educational repression, authorizing to them not only to adopt the phallic ground, usualy booked to the men. But also, while dealing with the gender, to update the psychic bisexuality; revealing for the tvvo sexes the feminized side of the driving litre castration marks by the father, proving the inalterability of his metaphor. So the women seize that the phallus was not the penis, but a comrnunity property with the two sexes to always imaginary recreating. In fact they do not share any more the contempt which stigmatized their sex, assuming even their femininity, choosing now their jouissance before maternity. Excluding even the men from fecundation, if it is not filiation, by resorting, without sexuality, the medical offer now able in reality to carry out the infantile sexual theories. From where the impact on the cultural ideals, operating an inversion of the phantasm of One child is beaten in a. Man is beaten by the women's father. This one; less guilty, adds the meetings, differs the married life and delays maternity. While the man become more sensitive reveals a civilisation marked by a male fear of ferninization

Full textThe flaubertiant desire is characterized by the dialectical relationship between the real and the infinite. These are insoluble dialectics because the flaubertian figure tries to attain infinity through sensation. Determined by his senses, he is for ever riveted to the ground, to matter. This conflict between idealism and the excess of sensitiveness appears very early, as soon as his early writings as a youth. Love takes place in the early youth at the climax of the dream. Yet this loving passion is only one of the figures of the Absolute, since what the flaubertian hero is looking for through love is some supreme condition through which the ego could reach an infinite world, freed from the weight of sensation and matter. This is why this quest for the absolute does not solely appear through the quest of love. The pantheistic ecstasy and the religious aspiration conjure up the same obsession as love. This explain why the connection of the character to nature, to religion is so heavy with sexual connotations. Whether it is the loving or the pantheistic ecstasy, the issue is to reach a deeper feeling through this fusion so that the soul, forgetting itself, gets into an ineffable emotion. While he is determined by his senses which drive him towards materiality, his idealism dismisses the satisfaction of the senses. Thus we see the character dashing off in the pursuit of a sensual pleasure which always slips away. Sexuality is not an enjoyment but a painful attempt of a consummate experience. At the end of this frantic quest, the character is alone facing his clear-sighted conscience. It therefore becomes obvious that the only answer is the rejection of life: death or the icy purity of an ethereal life. It is this flaubertian obsession that one find in Mme Bovary an Salammbo. Behind the excess of feeling of Mme Bovary and the asceticism of Salammbo in whom the flames of desire play on the principle of unfulfilment, are hidden the aesthetics and the ethics of the flaubertian desire

Full textThe present thesis is a study of contemporary Brazilian cinema focused on the constitution of female gazes. This study is based on film analysis and aims to describe an aesthetic model in opposition to the dominant (male) gaze that structures the majority of film production. It develops a perspective that distinguishes itself from classical feminist theory, by means of a shift in focus from the historically consecrated pair of opposites (masculine versus feminine) to an emphasis on what films offer as indications pointing to new symbolic structures. Its goal is to shed light on the constitution of a cinematic female gaze, and to describe the structural lines that define it

Full textEmerging from a mythical past into late 19th century texts, Gorgon Medusa and related figures of petrification embody the anguish and fantasies of a period characterised by an acute crisis in values and representations. The mortiferous seduction of these archaic feminine entities is all the more fascinating to late century imagination since anyone approaching them cannot but run the risk of becoming blind. At the same time, these imaginary female figures constitute an invite to transgression which is hard to renounce, since ideal objects can only be dead. The petrification that comes as a consequence of this transgressive desire also symbolises the ideals to which art aspires, for it suspends desire and keeps it perfect. Paradoxically, staging desire thus enables late 19th century writers to challenge the leading values of their times while vindicating the ambiguity of their own behaviour towards feminine figures whose idealisation is tantamount to sacrifice

Full textThe representation of female sexual desire in the novel of manners of the second half of the 19th century raises critical issues – it highlights the paradoxes at play in the second half of the 19th century, torn between contradictory representations of women, as either sexually haunted creatures or virgin mothers ; it informs us about the construction of masculine and feminine gender roles ; it makes us reflect on the scandals, past and present, caused by the desiring female body and the gaze cast upon it ; it interrogates the poetics of this literary genre as well as its claims to objectivity. The ambition of the novels analysed here is a comprehensive account of reality, with a claim to scientific rationality. And yet, when they deal with female desire, they indulge in a form of stylistic veiling that requires the reader to unpack the meaning. The purpose of this thesis was to analyse this veil of words covering female bodies, in order to lay bare the mechanisms behind the mendacity. The socio-critical method makes it possible to show the interactions between the novels and the various social discourses of their time – medical, religious, legal or even pedagogical – and thus to reveal a complex and coherent social imagery of female desire, whose stereotypes the novel both upholds and thwarts. In literary texts, scientific theories morph into poetic material, and double entendre becomes an art. These oblique erotic representations turn the descriptions of female desire into a minefield of innuendo, mostly developed by and for men. Some novels, however, already make room for a female voice and gaze of desire, sometimes even beyond gender

Full textIn his conference about the Weltanschauung Freud evokes the special relation between the psychoanalysis and the knowledge. The Psychoanalysis can't be guided through One single formal representation. The gap between the singular and its theoretical exposure, inherent to the transmission, leads us to think about the impossibility of the realization of the female sex in the unconscious. The feminine runs through the entire field of psychoanalysis. But the unconscious doesn't say anything about the female sex. The feminine is not femininity, it has no model, it's related to one position, related to the Other. If, according to Freud, the unassimilated character puts women in a position essentially problematic, Lacan develops a kind of know-how with the default of the symbolization. So, the feminine position consists in an other way of conceiving the relation to the phallus, more supple. Lacan has also worked on this according to the perspective of the transfer and the desire of the analyst. In this context he has also developed the relation between feminine's position and the analyst, and the importance of the feminine for the psychoanalysis. Freud's desire to understand femininity led him to examine the issues of femininity in many respects. According to him the realization of the female sex is more complicated, he even wondered about the right way to reach the so-called normal female attitude - that makes us thinking about the transmission of femininity and the feminine. Question which serves us as a sort of compass to think a parallel between the feminine and its transmission and that of psychoanalysis

Full textThe use of AMP, as an appeal to biotechnology medicine, induces subjective reworkings and reveals an unprecedented disjunction between the body and the organism. Through its technical nature, AMP modifies the subject's relationship to his body, which is reduced to an assembly of detachable organs and leads to the "construction" of a reproductive organism. In this configuration, the subject confronts a real body in what can sometimes be a de-subjectivizing experience. The subject in AMP oscillates between the illusion of control and disarray in the confrontation with his own lack. Sometimes promoting the omnipotence of the subject in his claims and rights of enjoyment (in this case that of the "right to the child") and in his refusal of the dimension of contingency, the AMP exacerbates the cleavage between sexuality and procreation and contributes to a tension in identity between maternity and feminity. Thus, in women with endometriosis this experience would be exacerbated by experiencing in their body, pain and lack in their femininity, summoning a radical lack on the feminine side

Full textThe foreclosure of the Name of the Father introduces the psychotic structure, remaining expelled out of the existence, the subject and the signifier desire. Expulsion reappears in the real : the passage to maternity can be configured as a fertile moment for its return. Our cases of clinical psychosis show how maternity can be an invitation to reach The woman : the relationship between the signifiers mother and woman do not show a hiatus ; it reveals an abyss whose encounter reveals the real of the jouissance, the death drive is opened in its essential manifestation of the negativity of the human bond. Procreation confronts with the impossibility of symbolization of the Other, introduces the dissolution of the social tie, in its lethal effects. The absence of the paternal exception forecloses the meeting with the feminine in the passage to maternity. The desire for a child (to make possible to the becoming subject its own structuring as subject of desire) remains fractured

Full textThis bi-cultural work, done between two countries, Algeria and France, has for main goal to identify the particularities that are shown by the Algerian women's personal experience on infertility and aided medical procreation. A study on infertility that is situated on the way of several domains psychoanalysis, medicine, anthropology, sociology. Starting from a clinical material get thanks to semi-directive interviews, the point of this work is to spot, in a first step, the specificities shown b the Algerian women in their relationship with the IVF, due to the cultural pre-determining, their lift conditions and the cultural and religious context. Specificities that prove to be enlightening women's problematic in general in their relationship with the IVF. Three questions in particular have been treated. The first concerns the psychic motivations of the exile in the name of child's desire; the second one concerns the link between femininity and maternity, still from infertile women's talks and by relying on different psychoanalytical theories. The last assumption deals with the link made b the Algerian couples between IVF procreation and the problematic of the adopted child and fantasies relating to a doubt about the paternity and to a fear of incest as a non biological child

Full textLebanon is based on a patriarchal society whose multiple demands include the birth of a boy within families. We have seen that this requirement is supported by the women themselves, who say they want more than anything the motherhood of a son, if possible the first born. This desire so often expressed seems to support Freud's phallocentric theory, which poses for women a primary desire for the penis and its resolution through the birth of a male child. However, other theories on the psychosexual development of women have already emerged among Freud's direct disciples and then in contemporary psychoanalytical theorizations.We wanted to explore this question by studying, through clinical research interviews and the passing of projective tests, the psychosexual development of young women to whom from an early age, their environment and especially their mother, had explicitly told them that they had wanted a boy during their pregnancy.If this did not allow us to settle the debate between phallocentric theory and other theories, our work has shown that when the unconscious desire, certainly driven by its unconscious conflicts related to its own psychosexual development, meets the desire to respond as well as possible to the social constraint of patriarchal society, women enjoy a certain fulfillment. On the other hand, it must be noted that, otherwise, women pay a heavy price in the form of accidents or voluntary perinatal events and great psychological suffering. We have also been able to highlight the induction of disorders in early relationships with their newborn daughter who make the bed at a deadly transgenerational repetition. Thus, in turn, and despite the fact that they regret having suffered from their status as born girls, they wish to give birth to a boy

Full textOver the last few years university criticism has taken a greater interest in the libertine novel. Yet, looked at from the point of view of woman and feminine, taking into account a large set of works – from French Regency to the first years of the nineteenth century – provides a new vision of both the libertine novel and the feminine question. The purpose of this thesis is therefore to envisage these two poles of understanding of Enlightenment thought and imaginary in their so rich but too little revealed until now mutual interaction. The libertine novel provides indeed its own answer to a question that obsessed the century in which it was born and evolved: the woman. The imageries, myths and fantasies revolving around feminine and femininity are also the origin of the basic feminine ambiguity in these texts. They are actually asserting themselves in both their intentions to liberate and their temptations to normalize. A thorough analysis of mastery and its stakes that are in the heart of relations between the two sexes and therefore the opposition masculine/feminine point out that this ambiguity, always wavering between liberation and subjection, is to interpret as a dynamic likely to construct a fantastical staging of woman and feminine

Full textThis work considers the question of the adoptive filiation from a clinical and theoretical point of view. In the Lacanian theory, the subject of the unconscious and the S.R.I, orientates the focus of our research. Maternal fantasies and desires, inherently linked with the essential void created by the absence of a child born from within can be disproportionate and alienating. The Symbolism is crushed by the amplified Imaginary. Our analysis reaches back to myths, where maternal figures are caught in the unconscious desire and allows us to explore: the effects of the break in the Real in unknown origins, the Symbolical domain of the construction of a being to the world and the play on the Imaginary, exploring how the subject perceive itself in the Other’s gaze and what are its effects. During adolescence the adoptive link is shaken and the mother’s psychological organisation is closed by a fantasmatic exacerbation representing the speaking subject being beside himself.We consider the desire to have child from the symbolisation to the conception, then we approach the delicate question of infertility in its distressing psychological aspect. This study offers to examine adoption in its powerful fantasmatic dimension: taking an already-made child can create fantasies about the murder of the birth mother, about devouring urges and parthenogenesis. The research and analysis which constructed this study help to consider the importance of the clinical implication

Full textOne in four pregnancies is interrupted as a result of early miscarriage. This "loss" is difficult to characterise because of the precocity of pregnan-cy and the ambiguous and fuzzy status of the em-bryo. During a pregnancy following a miscarriage, its experience tends to be reactualised, which would hinder the psychic processes of becoming a mother.Hypotheses: 1. Refreshing the "female anxieties" 2. Risk of topical collapse and denial of ambivalence 3. Reactivation of what was cleaved 4. Withdrawal of the father 5. Disturbance of the quality of the parent-baby relationshipMethodology: prospective, longitudinal and qualita-tive research with psychoanalysis as reference. The population is made up of eight participants with their spouses. Five semi-structured clinical inter-views: in the first, second and third trimesters of pregnancy, then at one and four months after the birth of the baby. Two self-questionnaires: the EPDS, to measure the risk of depression and prena-tal attachment (PAI); Inkblot (Rorschach) andTAT test (2nd trimester) and the drawing of the family tree (3rd quarter);Evaluation with the baby's Brazelton (NBAS) scale at month 1 and filmed interaction time (IPC) at month 4Results and analysis: 3 cases studies are built. The results show globally a validation of the hypotheses: during the pregnancy following an early miscarriage the anxieties of the female are reactualised and exac-erbated because of the loss experienced in the body as real.The miscarriage becomes an "attractor" of experienced suffering in representation, "waking up" isolated zones and un-symbolized experiences. Experiences of ambi-guity emerge both at the individual level and from the parental couple leading to generational confusion. The updated female anxieties associated with the psychic rearrangements induced by the state of pregnancy al-lowed that the subject take the status of equivalents affects. During the next pregnancy, one of the fate of this wrenching is, by a possible figuration of these test-ed, to become a loss.Interest: Pay attention to an event that seems "ordi-nary", but which resonates with archaic tests

Full textDo pregnancy and birth systematically turn a woman into a mother? What does turn a woman into a mother? What is to be pregnant in the eyes of the unconscious? How does psychoanalysis comprehend the perinatal moment, the becoming mother? To the never-ending interrogation surrounding the maternal and feminine, where Freud sees maternity as the accomplishment of feminity, Lacan differentiates the register of mother's satisfactions from the one of women's desire. By promoting this gap between the mother and the woman, he breaks with the Freudian idea of idealization of the mother by the woman, and renews considerably the clinic of maternity. This dissertation on the perinatal moment puts at its heart the primordial role of the symbolic fonction of the Father, and the rectifications in the relationship to the object which the phallic treatment of the child-object imposes. From fetishistic maternai jouissances to the consideration of lack, castration or the nothing in the feminine ideal, this study offers a psychopathologic and psychoanalytic reading of the unconscious dimensions of the clinic destinies of the becoming mother. Through the role of pregnancy in psychosis, through the unconscious motives of perinatal depression, through incoercible pregnancy vomiting, it thus brings to light the multiple unconscious arrangements that each woman is constrained to, in the complex work that constitutes the becoming mother

Full textPaul Claudel's theatre has considerable surprises in store for any researcher or reader. Although Claudel has been presented by his interpreters and critiques as the expression of an orthodox Catholicism, we rather believe that in his plays is at work a 'mise en scène' of fiction that, as Lacan says, "breaks through the canvas". His female characters - Violaine ( L'Annonce faite à Marie [Mary's prophecy] and the two versions of La Jeune fille Violaine [The Maid Violaine]), Sygne, Lumîr and Pensée (from the Trilogy: L'Otage, [The Hostage] Le Pain dur, [The Dry bread] Le Père humilié [The Humiliated father]), Prouhèze (Le Soulier de satin [The Satin slipper] are animated by a desire and an absolutely diametrical opposition to any Christian "agapè". This desire, nerve of Claudel's plays, leads his female protagonists to choices that profile themselves in a horizon of destruction and death. In a close analysis of several scene excerpts, using the perspective of Lacanian psychoanalysis, we intend to reveal how each play is build around this feminine desire, how it is its very backbone. This study is structured in three parts: - The issue of marriage in the case of Sygne and Prouhèze, as they willingly marry not "lovers" (Georges de Coûfontaine, Rodrigue) but men who pursue them violently (Turelure, Camille). Sygne's enigmatic strife which carries her to a radical destruction, and the consequences of this tragedy for the subsequent generations : the plunge in a sordid scenario, a "carnival" drama in which Lumîr, though she is the instigator of the Father's murder, remains the only character in the Le Pain dur who aspires to an ideal of love-- which leads her to death. Out of the disaster blossoms blind Pensée, who represents desire and beauty. Violaine's character, whose desire stages not only the destruction of the self -through the "joy" that incarnates leprosy- but also violence towards the other characters. The desire of Claudel's female characters is narrowly linked to the image of the Father and to its metonymy, God, whom it causes to stumble

Full textThis thesis studies the questions of sexual and homosexual difference in one novel by djuna barnes, nightwood, and two novels by jean genet, miracle de la rose and querelle de brest. It examines the two authors separately. The first section explores the metaphorical and metonymical links between three different figures of the other in nightwood, jew, homosexual and woman. It offers an interpretation of the enigmatic narrative of the novel, reading it in terms of the displacement of the figure of the other. Our analysis of genet distinguishes between the feminine other and the homosexu al other. The chapter on the miracle argues that the miracle for genet consists in the opportunity which writing affords of revealing a symbolic femininity where one might least expect to find it, and discusses the implications of the fact that genet values only symbolic femininity. The chapter on querelle explores the relationship which genet envisages between homosexuality and society. For both authors, the reflexion on sexual identity and orientation is intimately linked with a consideration of language. This thesis seeks to show the links between the practice of writing and the practice of desire

Full textOocyte donation IVF is a type of feminine filiation characterized by the absence of a hereditary link to the unborn child and at the same time, by the presence of a link in the body. This psychoanalytic study questions the specificities it bears from the viewpoint of infertile women, whenever technique fails. Through her clinical experience in a private ART Unit in Athens, the author puts into perspective the Greek protocol of donating "borrowed" or "foreign" oocytes, with the French protocol of "cross donation" such that she observed it in a Centre for Egg and Sperm Conservation in Paris. The issues that emerge from confronting these two protocols shed light on oocyte donation in general. Alongside the recurring themes of exchange and debt, "too late", secret, and reparation through pregnancy, within the context of neoliberal Bioeconomy, this gift turns out to be impossible to admit, since the lack it aims at is a lack of being: the author maintains that it fails when a woman cannot conceive its lirait identifying it to an object. The results of this research lead to confirm the existence of a specific gift related to the alienation of the demand having initiated it, and which installs the subject in a mirage whereby her relationship to time, debt and castration is denied. If oocyte donation appears as a gift in response to a woman's desire for a child, challenging her own foreignness and death, the psychoanalytic theory of the gift the author suggests brings out the object a of the gift as the object given in any gift marking its very failure
Hansson-de, Laage de Meux Maria. "Le Surnaturel en question. Désir d’émancipation chez les femmes de lettres de la Percée moderne suédoise." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SORUL179.
Full textIn the 1880s, the writers of the Modern Breakthrough advocated a literature of realism attuned to their time. Female writers have a prominent place within this group and their plays were often successful. Even today, women like Anne Charlotte Leffler, Victoria Benedictsson and Selma Lagerlöf are recognized as major artists. Yet their works and status have been constantly questioned. How should the presence of folklore in realistic works be understood under these conditions? By referring to the specifically feminine problems of the gaps in sexual education, the impossibility of following one's vocation and confinement to marriage, through the creatures of Scandinavian folklore, the female writers remain in the sphere of the irrational. Does the use of the supernatural allow them to adapt to norms and practice a literary genre, close to fairy tales, compatible with the ideas that critics have of their gender? It is not a movement, let alone a school, but a tendency for some female writers to aesthetically assimilate the supernatural and modern debates on the rights of women, spawning a passage to the folkhem to come, and inscribing folklore within a feminine utopian vision

Full textMy research focuses on the female characters in In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust from the perspective of the "desire" of René Girard, the "gift" of Marcel Mauss and the "focus" of Gérard Genette. The variable focus in the narrative facilitates the comprehension of all relationships, connections and in particular the passion and the varied emotional projections of the hero for these women. He believes that his dreams will come true through these women. It will be the narrator, another "me" of the hero, who will demystify this feeling. In fact, his satisfaction is not in regard to the women themselves, but to the peripheral qualities that he can find from these women. Girard defends the desire of bad processes, he talks about the mimicry, rivalry and violence in desire which is also from the imagination. Girard's theory of mimetic desire composed of envy, jealousy and helpless hatred corresponds exactly to the unhealthy desire of the young hero for these women. The theory of Mauss regarding mutual recognition as being composed of "three obligations" which constitute a good social relationship. He defends not only the good processes like friendship, love and gift exchange, but also the topic of rivalry. It might seem that these two theories are contradictory, but Desire and the Gift coexist in fact in this novel, we can find them in our new interpretation. The hero's pursuit of friendship and social glory is defeated, however all pages on art shows us the philosophy of Proust, which is not possible by love is possible through literature. In Search of Lost Time is a gift of the author, it's a comprehension all about life
De, Araujo Magalhaes Maria Da Gloria. "La dialectique du troubadour et de la figure féminine dans les chansons d’amour et d’ami Gallaïco-portugaises une thématique : l’amour et l’érotisme." Thesis, Paris 3, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA030139.
Full textThe study of our corpus is about the gallaïco-portuguese songs of love and friend dated from the late twelfth to the mid-fourteenth century. The problem is to determine what dialectic maintain the troubadour and the feminine face through the two lyric genres in the context of love and eroticism. Their loving relationship is based on a dialectic either Platonic or Hegelian, depending on the lyric genre, the theme of love and eroticism, their social class, the reference to real and imaginary loving stories of the period, but also of the material, the shape, the origin and the source of influence of the song. The glance carried towards the woman in the iberian medieval society was under the influence of a double speech maintained by the Thinkers of the Church which consisted, on one hand to minimize the importance of woman in making responsible original sin and on the other hand to associate her a maternal image and Marian quite at the same time. In front of this vision, the troubadour intends to design a new image of woman in his lyrical compositions, according to two models of representation. At first, he describes an abstract and inaccessible feminine face in a space and sacred time through an erotic paint in the love. This face is similar to that of the Lady of the court, the countess of Tripoli or the Virgin Mary. But also, near him, he depicts her in loving narratives corresponding to the profane world and to the historic and social reality, as a young woman married or single, belonging either to the nobility, the middle-class, or the peasantry

Full textMaternity and sexuality are among the main themes of the work of Emile Zola. Despised as well as admired, this author of the nineteenth century seems to have been much influenced by his life experiences and his epoch. It seems that the fact that he has been living mainly among women Ŕ his mother, maternal grand-mother, wife and mistress Ŕ has greatly influenced his perceptions about maternity and sexuality. However, we should not obliterate that the fact that his readings of some authors have also contributed to his ideas about these two themes, mainly Balzac, Michelet and Stendhal. Zola has got a fixed idea about maternity : it’s a sacred act whose purity should be preserved. He firmly believes that a mother should make all sorts of sacrifices for her child, including her sexual life. It becomes however more difficult for us to determine how Zola perceives sexuality. He surely pretends to dislike any sexual activity but on the other hand, he writes profusely about sexuality in his work. Quite ambiguous…
