Full textThe Intimate is the image that Barthes’ tought works on. “Our most intimate quest doesn’t go at the end of matters but at its whys”, he says at the beginning of his work. And at the end: “The intimate wants to speak within me, to make its call at the face of generality, of science. ” In his critical speech, we wonder if Barthes hasn’t set free a poetics of the Intimate. First we shall attempt to define the illusion carried by the Intimate in general. A certain public utility is willing to neutralize it in one’s private life (his speech has the form of what J. Kristeva ascribes to the “virtuous exasperation” of Criticism facing “sentimental naïvety”). Then we must reassert its possible Call and Word, by showing how Barthes himself dealt with them. Therefore these lines of attack: the Style or the Intimate force, its representation in the scandalous oblivion of the subject — after Barthes, far from him; the Diary in which this scandal best echoes — according to Barthes: depending on the rythm that causes to rethink the Essay; the very writing of the Intimate or written form, can’t be resumed to the identity, but can be measured by the wide range of themes (Voice, Ego, Resistance). It turns the work into “work-life”, going from this space to life’s structure and events; the Nothing of the speech at which this writing is articulated with, which Barthes starts to mention with reading and eludes at the same time
Shimada, Kaoru. "Absurdité, théâtralité, fictionnalité: essai sur le texte de théâtre : l'écriture théâtrale d'Albert Camus." Paris 4, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005PA040006.
Full textHow can we read the theatre works of Albert Camus, as he wished them to be read, from a purely aesthetic angle, without reducing them to the demonstration of the thesis expressed in his philosophical essays? In the current context of aesthetics and poetics, this question is inseparable from another question: what is the theatricality of theatre and theatrical text? The case of Camus reveals some specific features of the theatrical text that appear to point towards its fictionality. However, theatricality is not synonymous with fictionality, although these notions are both closely connected with absurdity. Absurdity, which is to be found in the fundamental principle of communication, allows us to recognize both theatricality and fictionality. In the case of Camus's theatre, which exemplifies more than it represents absurdity, the aesthetic experience of the reader-spectator consists above all in grasping the full meaning of the distance that separates the artistic intention and the works that realize it
Lecomte, Dauthuille Sylvaine. "Le motif improbable ˸ le récit d’enquête français contemporain, Thierry Beinstingel, Emmanuel Carrère et Jean Rolin." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018USPCA036.
Full textLiterary narrative forms at the dawn of 21st century sometimes take the form of an enquiry. The present thesis aims to examine in detail this narrative technique as practised by Thierry Beinstingel, Emmanuel Carrère et Jean Rolin. The way they use it could help to understand and identify the aesthetic qualities and purposes of this emerging narrative mode. In these stories, the narrator feels his own thoughts as locked inside an authoritarian doxa which he must first overcome to recover his freedom of perception. He can then become involved in the enquiry, which can be understood as a phenomenological way to be aware. He then selects an arbitrary or improbable motif as the goal for his quest, which may be a person, an object, a project, an area, and undertakes to tell the story of his own inquiry. From this starting point, he begins to question the meaning of his existence and to observe himself making sense of, reading, thinking about and reacting to things. Between fiction and nonfiction, these frequently digressive tales often border on novels, essays or investigation journalism. The narrator always looks puzzled, hesitant and does not seem to trust his own approach. Yet in the background we witness the emergence of a dynamic both narrative and introspective through which the narrator becomes an acute observer of the world around him. He follows freely his train of thought through among other things the use of the essay form to drift from an idea to the next, finding new means of expressing the critique of social problems, creating novel ways of building new fictional worlds and perhaps even managing to rebel against the idea that there is no alternative to the world as it exists

Full textHébert, Julie. "L'essai chez Marguerite Yourcenar : métamorphoses d'une forme ouverte." Thesis, Paris 3, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA030029.
Full textThrough the variety of themes and forms offered by Marguerite Yourcenar's essays, the "portrait of a voice" progressively takes shape, inclining the reader to ponder, after the essayist herself, Jorge Luis Borges's warning : "A writer thinks he is tackling a lot of subjects; what he leaves behind, however - if he is lucky - is an image of himself". The essays, in which two contadictory conceptions of time and identity constantly clash, testify to the way the "self" resists its extinction, strongly recommended by the "I", which remains supreme beyond the metamorphoses. From the first essays, in which the young "Marg Yourcenar", in a tense and ornate style, appears to be both alarmed and enchanted by the decline of the West, to the last remarks jotted down in her notebooks, the recurring metaphor of the erosion conveys the extent to which the form is being refined, as well as the self-portrait that emerges from it. The process involves a conception of time that wavers between the flowing and the permanent, and brings forth the value given to the moment, first step towards the "sympathetic magic" which enables the reader to settle at any point of the human time. Thus expanded to the dimensions of the universal "constellation" born of random, or highly determined, encounters, the irrepressible "self" still embodies the resurgences of the individuality, accepted at last as a path towards the universal. After writing essays for fifty years, Marguerite Yourcenar conquered the liberty that defines the form and borders on the autobiographical, when she finally allowed its metamorphoses to closely match the fluidity of the individual life
Rocipon, Nina. "Poétique du dépaysement : Jean-Christophe Bailly et la recherche d'une écriture sans appropriation." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019USPCC078.
Full textThis dissertation is about French contemporary writer and thinker Jean-Christophe Bailly. Over our seven chapters, we tried to identify the specificities of his poetics, which we call ‘poétique du dépaysement’ [change of scenery poetics] (in reference to his most well-known book). It appears to us that Jean-Christophe Bailly’s writings, despite their heterogeneity, always rethink familiarity, habits, and personal involvement. The author refuses to watch, think and write as if he were taking possession of the world. To the contrary, he consistently acts as a surprised visitor and experimenter.Jean-Christophe Bailly’s rich work engages an uncontrolled dynamic, which is both an aesthetics and a politics. Meaning that the utterance carefully keeps itself on the edge, expressing the joy and necessity of vagrancy. In many ways, Jean-Christophe Bailly’s style, descriptive, reflexive, narrative, and critic, seems to be overwhelmed in the world. With this dispossession move may appear a newly found reality in which every object, freed from any external determinisms, can stand for itself
Sénat, Marion. "L'essai méditatif au prisme de la vulnérabilité : suivi de Exercices du vertige." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris 3, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023PA030046.
Full textThis research suggests that the literary essay, because it thinks through the form, allows us to understand a part of the vulnerability which resists the philosophical approaches of the concept. Vulnerability demands to take into account ways of relating to the world that depart the universalizing and dualistic model which structures the paradigm of knowledge. It also requires a rethinking of the notional couplings on which the occidental “partage du sensible” is based and escapes the political space as configured by twentieth-century philosophy. The four contemporary literary essays that make up the corpus are all concerned with thinking reality from its places of opacity and engaging their vulnerability in thought. In Suzanne Jacob's La Bulle d’encre (1997), Leslie Kaplan's Les Outils (2003), René Lapierre's Renversements (2011), and Frédéric Boyer's Là où le cœur attend (2017), the reflection confronts its own limit in language and stands in places where the fabric of the world unravels. They welcome in language the nonsense and loss of symbolic markers that characterize, in part, vulnerability. Working from a negative logic, these texts turn the ambivalence with which philosophy characterizes vulnerability into an open unity, whose coherence does not imply the absence of contradiction. By doing so, they bring to light the singular intelligence of essay. This theoretical research is followed by a creative part entitled "Exercising desiquilibrium" which pursues the connection posed by the essay between writing and life and employs its research method, which involves both an archaeology of forms and the exercise of confidence in language
Constantinesco, Thomas. "Ralph Waldo Emerson : l'Amérique à l'essai - lectures de l'oeuvre en prose." Paris 7, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PA070049.
Full textUpon his death in 1882, Ralph Waldo Emerson had already become a literary monument and was recognized as a founding figure of American culture. Published in 1837, "The American Scholar" is indeed hailed by many to be America's "intellectual Declaration of Independence. " However, if the "Belles Lettres" did contribute to creating the representation of a common imaginary whereby the American nation could invent itself and if, in the course of the nineteenth century, America wrote itself into existence, such an enterprise remained largely the province of fiction. Yet Emerson was always suspicious of fiction, which for him rhymed with illusion, choosing instead to write non-fictional prose, and more particularly essays. Contrary to some of his contemporaries who turned tales, romances, and novels into indigenous genres, free at last from the shackles of European Letters, Emerson turned towards the genre of the essay and made it one of America's privileged forms of literary expression. This thesis thus offers to read Emerson's essays as so many ways of approaching what "Experience" describes as "this new yet unapproachable America," considering them as the locus where the American democracy repeatedly writes and rewrites its social compact and continuously reinvents itself. By the same token however, and despite Emerson's aversion for fictional forms, the essays yield to the desire for fiction that haunts them in secret and become what he called "romances of character," fashioning the character of America's representative men even as the letters, the characters, take shape on the page
Jolibois, Michel. "The last essays of Elia de Charles Lamb : traduction, introduction critique et notes." Thesis, Paris 3, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA030006.
Full textThe present study aims to provide a carefully annotated translation of the second series of the Essays of Elia which appeared in English periodical magazines between 1820 and 1833. In order to be as complete as possible, this translation includes the passages removed by the author when they were published in book form in 1833. Particular attention has been paid to French translations of individual Elia essays scattered in mid-nineteenth century French magazines as well as to more modern translations of the collected Essays, up to the present day. The Last Essays of Elia was Lamb’s final published work. It was very tempting to look for threads running through his work from the early writings to the LEE. In the critical introduction, we have sought to consider the various aspects of the work of Lamb, who was at the same time a poet, a journalist, a playwright, a theatre critic and a letter-writer before making his name as an essay-writer, breathing new life into the genre, thanks to the Elia persona. The fact that Lamb was a friend of the first English Romantic poets and that his life was blighted by his mother’s murder at the hands of his beloved sister, brings a vivid interest to his work. An isolated figure of Romanticism, a "very reasonable Romantic" himself, a humourist in love with the books and language of the past, Lamb, though a relatively minor author, remains a key link to understanding the early nineteenth-century English literary scene
Gouttefangeas, Maud. "Au théâtre des pensées. Essais de Péguy, Valéry, Artaud et Michaux." Thesis, Paris 4, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA040045.
Full textThere is such a thing as a theatre of the mind, a space for creation and play, in which the process of thinking is revealed. Péguy, Valéry, Artaud and Michaud have all experienced this in their essays. Beyond the differences that distinguish their works, their thinking processes are remarkable as they seek to reveal themselves through a model that finds its origin at the intersection of three forms of theatre. The first is the actual theatre of the early 20th Century, in which many experiments occur in the art of mise en scène. The stages and artistic settings in which these four authors evolve are vessels for the transmission of new and modern forms of theatricality ; they present the authors with new possibilities as far as performance is concerned, possibilities from which their minds take inspiration. On this inner stage of the mind, a second form of theatre unfolds to which various paths – mystical, poetic (Baudelaire and Mallarmé) and philosophical (Freud and Bergson) – give access. A third type of theatre can then be found in the four authors’ works, through the various shapes and values of essayistic writing. The genre’s genealogy, from Montaigne to Nietzsche, reveals, at its very core, an interaction between dramatizations of the mind and the text. In other words, a theatrical poietic emerges, which the four authors employ. The dramatized thoughts, calling on devices and mechanisms reminiscent of those being invented on modern stages, are put into place and pushed into movement, given a voice. The texts seek to show this theatre of the mind in which actions, costumes, décor, lighting, chorus, etc., intertwine, forming meaningful compositions
Aubry-Morici, Marine. "Pensée, narration, fiction. L’art combinatoire de l’essayisme italien hypercontemporain (2000-2019)." Thesis, Paris 3, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019PA030064.
Full textThe dissertation proposes to study current phenomena of generic contamination between the story and the essay in Italian literature of the 21st century, by way of the category of essayism and by drawing on theories of the essay formulated in the 20th century, in particular those of Lukács, Bense and Adorno, considering a hyper-contemporary corpus (Franco Arminio (1960 - ), Vitaliano Trevisan (1960 - ), Tommaso Pincio (1960 - ) and Giorgio Vasta (1970 - ). If the Italian essay has been often confined to the forms of literary or political criticism, its newest forms, renewable in more general contexts of hybridization between fiction and nonfiction, put existing categories in a state of crisis. The dissertation shows that in continuing the tradition of reflexive writing organized around the “I,” (Mon- taigne), current Italian essayism mediates, comments, speculates around a variety of objects, and in doing so, allows itself more and more to resort to narrativity and the power of the imagination. It is therefore studied as a combinatory and mimetic form of writing that borrows forms from other genres (biography, autofiction, narrative reporting) and draws on the literary reservoir for its processes (epiphanies, allegories, estrangement) in order to serve the “thought in the making.” The research reveals that current Italian essayism, in making allies of thought, narration and fiction, presents itself as an ars combinatoria basing its organizational fulcrum on its reflexive scope as well as on “thematization.” It questions this reflection on the real and this critical writing of the present, through their con- sideration alongside the philosophy and anthropology of our time
Olivier, Claire. "Images : voir, penser, rêver : approche intermédiale de l'oeuvre (2000-2015) de Jean-Phlippe Toussaint, écrivain, photographe, cinéaste et plasticien." Thesis, Limoges, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018LIMO0086.
Full textThis research work questions the ensemble of the artistic activities conducted by Jean-Philippe Toussaint at the dawn of the 21st century. These activities determine a corpus composed of different publications, exhibitions and installations which forge implicit and explicit links in between themselves. This immaterial framework serves as the basis for our corpus, our study “text” thus being constituted of this interlacing of artistic propositions. This questioning convokes several perspectives that can be distinguished even though they are interdependent. The first perspective considers the place of this work in a defined period and its claim of contemporaneity. The second leans on a reflection on the supports, the media of Jean-Philippe Toussaint’s artistic production, their specific features, their links pertaining equally to complementarity and to tension. The third one refers to the reflective dimension of this composite work displaying itself, “exposing” itself in every sense of the word, to the extent of taking the risk of unveiling. Our work centers on a period, 2000-2015, of creative maturity inaugurated by the first photographs exhibitions (Chapter XII, Brussels; CASO, Osaka), the writing of the opus I, Faire l’amour (published in 2002) of the cycle M.M.M.M. and the publication of the collection Autoportrait (A l’étranger) gathering texts written at the end of the nineties. The toussaintian realizations of the years 2000-2015, fictions, essays, catalogue, videos, films, exhibitions, installations, although varied, all establish a relationship with his own writings, the book and the reading; they demonstrate a homogeneity based on the omnipresence of the scriptural and visual picture, or more precisely PICTURES, which are superimposed on each other, complete each other, annihilate each other, in movements of synergies as well as conflicts. Therefore, these pictures are in the heart of our questioning which sheds light on Toussaint’s poetics as the latter manifest themselves in his productions and are expressed in his words. The pre-eminence of the gaze is thus a permanent feature (« La main et le regard, il n’est jamais question que de cela dans la vie, en amour, en art. » La Vérité sur Marie, 2009) which circulates throughout the entire work. The gaze is central because to see is also, according to Jean-Philippe Toussaint, to think and to dream, the picture pertaining, in turns, and sometimes simultaneously, to perception, analysis and fantasy
Colombani, Marie-Jeanne. "James Boswell, historien et publiciste de la Corse. Édition critique de la traduction de "British Essays in Favour of the Brave Corsicans by Several Hands. Collected and Published by James Boswell, Esq." (1769)." Thesis, Paris 3, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA030181.
Full textThe island of Corsica has always been the symbol of resistance to tyranny.Its history was made up of a series of revolutions against the Genoese and French settlements which made the news in the British periodicals.James Boswell(1740-95), while on his Grand Tour(1763-66), met the father of the Corsican nation, Pascal Paoli( 1725-1807), at the head of the rebels.Boswell championed the cause of liberty on behalf of those who were regarded as brave islanders by the enlightened conscience of Europe.He started a frantic press campaign so that Great Britain would interfere in a conflict it did not want to enter. The volume of essays James Boswell published has never been translated. This study is concerned with both the text of *British Essays* and its context.The translation and the critical apparatus bear on the twenty essays which make up the volume. The circulation of ideas and men fuelled the interest in foreign news in the British society where history was a lofty genre and where the press flourished in coffee-houses, those new types of places of sociability. Patrons took pleasure in conversations, an art everyone thought they mastered and politics was on everyone's lips
Neelsen, Sarah. "Les essais d'Elfriede Jelinek. Genre. Relation. Singularité." Thesis, Paris 3, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA030130.
Full textThis thesis discusses the work of the Austrian writer Elfriede Jelinek (Nobel Prize for Literature 2004) from its margins, from a corpus of “short texts” written from the beginning of her career beside her novels and plays. As occasional prose, these essays are grounded in a specific aesthetic paradigm, which this dissertation seeks to define by examining their original conditions of publication. This method brings to light that these are commissioned works, released on very different media formats than a book (journals, flyers, programs and the internet), which have their own mode of reception due to their volatility in space and time. The corpus is presented against the backdrop of Jelinek’s main work and its major turning-points. It is also set in the context of Austria’s post-1945 literature according to the author’s personal and professional network in order to reintegrate Jelinek in her generation. Three chapters are then dedicated to a detailed analysis of the texts. This thesis highlights the slow genesis of their main theme, the possibility of a feminine work of art. Then it studies three characteristics of their style - hollowing, paradox and liquidity. Lastly, it deals with the relation to the reader, conceived as jamming and interference, both allowing, at least for a time, to prolong the text’s meaning, as it otherwise tends to become more and more obscure. Relation and singularity are key notions of this thesis, considered as the main aesthetic and political issues of its corpus, being also part of the essayistic tradition, discussed through some canonical definitions (Lukács, Adorno, Barthes, Marielle Macé, Georg Stanitzek)
Nganga, Bernard. "L'oeuvre romanesque de Cyprian Ekwensi : essai d'étude littéraire et sociologique." Paris 12, 1988. http://www.theses.fr/1988PA120043.
Full textOne can hardly deny the objective fact that ekwensi is a popular novelist. To do so one has to contradict the writer himself who readily admits it. This is an aspect of his work critics have been too happy to highlight. Apart from being popular ekwensi's novels have been considered sociological documents. As a good novelist is neither popular nor mainly concerned with sociology, critics in general have not been favourable to ekwensi. A considerable amount of criticism relating to either aspect is available. However after considering the various explanations one wonders whether some critics have not given a hasty and biassed interpretation of ekwensi's work. This author takes into account the previous studies some of which he finds unacceptable or obsolete. His main concern is to suggest new critical perspectives so as to throw a different light on ekwensi's work. Indeed a number of critics today are of opinion that it should be re-assessed as it appears that it has not always been duly evaluated
Bouden-Antoine, Hajer. "Christian Bobin et la question du genre littéraire." Paris 3, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2006PA030008.
Full textThis work raises the issue of the literary genre in connection with the generically unstable oeuvre of the contemporary writer Christian Bobin (1951). The first part begins with the examination of this oeuvre from the point of view of narrative fiction – novel and short story – and ends with the study of its intrinsic fragmentation. The second part seeks to locate what is, in the writer, relevant to intimate literature and may be categorized among the writings of the self such as the diary, the conversation and the epistolary writing. The third part eventually examines the major feature of this oeuvre: lyricism. Through the analysis of the relationships between writing, music and singing, this part attempts at exploring the style that brings it together with mystical poetry : and so evoking transcendence becomes, in Bobin's work, the essential modality of the transcendence of genres

Full textMarius Grout (1903-1946) was essentially a poet (successively inspired by Francis Jammes and Paul Valéry) a diarist (similarly to Maine de Biran) and a novelist. He also wrote dramas, essays, biographies and short stories. Four novels published by Gallimard in a style of great putity. "Musique d'Avent", "Le Vent se lève", "Passage de l'Homme" (which was awarded the Goncourt literary award in 1943 and can be compared to "Que ma joie demeure" written by Giono), "Un Homme perdu" punctuated his evolution towards realism as well as his mystical and sensuous personality. Marius Grout belonged to the group of writers called "the adventurers of Absolute", who had a great concern for existentialism and tried to unravel the world's enigma. He conveys a message to new generation : the aim to look for the blessed islands with loyalty without giving up criticism and the legitimate joys of the earth
Teixeira, Etienne. "Plutarque et le théâtre grec." Paris 4, 1989. http://www.theses.fr/1988PA040155.
Full textThe Greek theatre, which is inseparable from the work of Plutarch, has a great influence on his style. So to speak, the theatrical language and the style of Plutarch are one and the same to the extent that it can be asserted that all that is the concern of the Greek theatre is known to the author of the moralia and of the lives. Besides, one is entitled to admit that the influence of the tradition of tragics and comics exerts not only on the philosopher of cheronee, but also as an indirect consequence on the society of his time. Actually, we are forced to notice that this influence, which lays mainly in a cultural impregnation and which allows Plutarch to have a large set of examples and models, exerts also on the moral field. It is to that effect that we can consider that for the author, the Greek theatre represents a school which allows him to clarify some of his psychological, philosophical and moral views
Chevalier, Claude. ""Les Exaltés" de Robert Musil : mises en scène : Vienne 1980 et Berlin 1981." Metz, 1988. http://www.theses.fr/1988METZ005L.
Full text"Die Schwärmer", dramatic text by the austrian author Robert Musil (1880 1942), published in 1921 in dresden was for a longtime considered as "a play to read"; in 1929 was presented for the first and only time during the life of musil who denounced, in a essay entitled "Der Schwärmerskandal", the mediocrity of the adaptation of his text. "Die Schwärmer" was from this moment on marked by this first defeat and its dramatic aspect constantly questioned. The first objective of the present study consisted in rehabilitating the "theatricality" of "Die Schwärmer" and to bring out the plurality of different readings which causes its complexity. A first part situates "Die Schwärmer" in the social surrounding in which it was elaborated and among the texts of musil, who confronted with the tendances of the "twenties" takes his distance to conceive his own theatrical form. To a textual and analytical lecture of the second part axed on the dramatical spaces that constitute this text, follow the presentation in the third part of two scenic readings; they provided by their success, and even by their differences in interpretation, the perfect illustration of the belonging of "Die Schwärmer" to the dramatic style and the poetic density which characterizes this text which remained for a longtime misappreciated; there is question here of two representations in vienna (1980) and berlin (1981) that opened the road to this play in the repertories of the international theaters. Indeed, one is allowed today to consider the non-conventionality od "Die Schwärmer" in the twentires, as the foreunner of its actuality in the eigthies

Full textThe periode of time targeted here stretches from 1900 to 1949; taking into account historical factors, refering to earlier so-called "works for the young" and probing into various writings from that particular period, enable to locate the bases of a children's literature in its own right. From the study of novels for children by Erich Kastner, a German writer, the purpose is to derive the deciding factors that helped establish a literature specific to children (writings for teenagers have been left out of this study). Along with the very special interest granted to the various aspects of the works of a writer of German extraction, in a historical context rich in events, the worldwide scope of this literature shows itself as a criterium of the utmost importance in modern trends. The acknowledgement of children's literature as such is a contemporary more as it is intended for an ever renewed public, the child

Full textThe study reflects on the work of Claude Esteban, including his poetics, translation theoryand literary and artistic criticism. Emphasising the instability of Esteban’s conception oflanguage, which fluctuates between a focus on signs and a focus on discourse, we showthat the specificity of his work lies in a dialectic tension between history andmetaphysics. An analysis of his approach to language – on which all systems of meaningare based – preserves the systematic nature of Esteban’s work while also revealing how itworks. Guided by Esteban’s own tentative approach, as evidenced by his choice of theessay as a critical form, we concentrate on his historical approach to art and literature,which underlines the inherent value and specificity of his works

The essays analysed in this survey have been written by students preparing a Brevet d'Etudes Profesionnelles (Exam taken after a two-year vocational course following secondary-school). The students were assigned to give an account of a class debate then to speak their mind on one of the points debated. The paper presents a reflection on the notion of point of view, along with an analysis of the diversity of views illustrated by speaking manners. Such an approach allowed me to focus on some not only on the strains between the narrative and the augmentative linked to the complexity of the essay, but also on the notional strains thet may come up both in debate accounts and in the way personal views are expredded. This paper also gets into the position the student holds in his text

Full textThis study of Mallarmé's work focuses on the question of reading. The notion of reading usually consists in deciphering a text to discover its content or its meaning. We seek to question this notion by swinging the act of deciphering in favour of the act of producing knowledge and significance, that is, by studying the text's inner critical activity. Our study is a reading of Mallarmé's work which goes beyond the mere commentary in order to uncover the "mise en scène" of the text. Thus, from the well-known crisis that forced young Mallarmé to question the whole poetic inheritance, to the famous dream of the Book, we will endeavour to survey the theatricality of writing and reading within and by Mallarmé's work. The critique of reading in Mallarmé's work claims a critical reading for every work that makes the reader "better", or makes the listener a "musician" (with "this music [that] takes the listener for an intelligent person, for a musician […] I become a better man […] also a better musician, a better listener", says Nietzsche), since a piece of work is to be carried out no better nor differently
Coppin, Valentine. "Paul Adam. L'écrivain, la littérature, le genre." Thesis, Lille 3, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019LIL3H066.
Full textThis thesis analyzes the literary work and career of a French symbolist novelist : Paul Adam (1862-1920).Born in the North of France, Paul Adam goes to Paris like many other writers of the “fin-de-siècle” in order to begin a writing career. The different strategies he adopts to become a leading author reveal the organization of the literary field becoming at that time more and more autonomous from the political power. These strategies convey the typical message of the young symbolist novelists and express the authors’ will to give literature a new kind of authority. The tools of the sociology of literature, used to describe this path, introduce and throw light on the study of the literary work by articulating it with its production and reception conditions.The literary analysis shows that in Paul Adam’s work, the novelistic form is an integral part of an idea of the world inherited from kabbalistic doctrines which assert that the universe is divided into two distinct poles : masculine and feminine. Gender, meaning social representations of sex, is the basis for the analysis of the author's novels, and, in this purpose, is closely linked with literary genre. Paul Adam’s involvement in political and social issues of his time lead him to wonder about the gender identities of his characters, and the relationships with the power resulting of them.However, the constant and close link between the masculine imaginary of the “fin-de-siècle”,the kabbalistic doctrines and the political changes lead to many contradictions in gender representations in the novels.The considerable changes of mind in Paul Adam’s writings and political commitments show that the literary form is inextricably linked to his particular and changing view of gender representations.Finally, the evolution of this rich and complex thought expressed in an extremely prolific and varied literary work, can be explained by the desire of recognition that Paul Adam nourished throughout his career

Full textThis thesis aims to prove the centrality of the question of means and end in the work of Edward Bond. The first chapter examines how this question is at the root of the political dimension of edward bond's work. In this perspective, after a survey of his militant theatre, the various cycles of plays which constitute his work are successively discussed. The second chapter examines how the question of means and end determines and conditions bondian aesthetics, thanks, in particular, to the principle of "dramatization of the analysis", which conditions the structure of the plays, and which is apparent in the sub-titles, the echoing scenes, and the multi-focused scenes. The third chapter examines how the question of means and end underlies the ethical dimension of edward bond's work, through specific distanciation procedures. Delocalization, historicization, songs, "public soliloquies", choruses, and semiotized props are here discussed in this perspective. The last chapter focuses on the spectator, considered both as the end of the bondian enterprise, and as its relay in the real world. The question of a new mode of reception of dramatic works is posed, through the discussion of bondian characters, "aggro-effects", and the endings of the plays. This study ends by examining the place of edward bond in contemporary trends of throught, with a particular emphasis on his position in relation to post-modernism
Hanus, Gilles. "Jean-Paul Sartre et Benny Levy, l'espoir maintenant : le dialogue comme Praxis philosophique : génèse et interprétation." Paris 7, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA070037.
Full textThe only trace left from Sartre and Benny Levy's dialogue is the publication of their interviews called Hope now (L'Espoir maintenant) not long before Sartre's death. Sartre and Lévy both declared how important this dialogue had been for them, but the scandal that followed the publication of the interviews prevented them from being taken seriously. It is now time to consider these interviews more objectively. In order to do so, we had to place them back in the vaster context of the Sartre-Lévy dialogue and that dialogue first had to be reconstituted. The opening of Benny Levy's personal archives made it possible. This source was completed with numerous recordings of the interviews as well as a series of conferences and articles which showed evidence of the common work Sartre and Lévy had undertaken. Once the reconstitution was made, we decided to reconsider the published interviews with the globality of the dialogue in mind. This approach required going back to previous texts from Sartre or consulting posterior ones from Benny Lévy. It showed this dialogue as the interaction of two thoughts confronting each other and taking shape at the same time. Hope now is a very dense text, based on countless preliminary exchanges, that needs explanations to be fully comprehended and to understand what is at stake. It turns out that the dialogue, rather than being an anecdotic form occasionally taken to express a thought, actually gives birth to a specific form of thought, which Sartre himself used to call "Pensée du nous" ("thought of the we")

Full textThe current work is composed of the complete edition of theatre by Jean Desmarets (1595-1676). This writer, who experimented with nearly all literary genres, occupied for a short period a key position in, seventeenth century theatre. From 1636 until the death of the Cardinal Richelieu (1642), he was Richelieu's official playwright, taking over from the "Five Authors" and thus becoming the principal actor of cultural and theatrical policies taken on by his superior. In addition to the truly editorial work of establishment the texts, nuancing and establishing the variations and annotating the works, we have studied the conditions of the creation of each text, the sources and the way that Desmarets used them. Finally, in the general introduction, as well as in the presentation of each of the dramatic works edited, we felt compelled to reply to the main question asked by critics for three and a half centuries : how far did the unusual situation of Desmarets with regard to Richelieu influence his theatre, or in other words, how much of it is political and how much is aesthetic (understood in the sense of generic codes, rhetoric, and themes which constitute the theatre of this period) in the creation of his seven pieces : Aspasie (1636), Les Visionnaires (1637), Scipion (1638), Roxane (1640), Mirame (1641), Erigone (1642) et Europe (1642)

Full textDuring the Restoration in France, under the influence of numerous changes in the book market, the novel brought about a new relationship between authors and readers. Choosing to write novels is often seen as a sacrifice that Romantic writers made to the exigencies of the publishing world, but in fact, such writers wanted to explore the potentialities of a literary form and of a medium - the book - to create a new kind of reader in an increasingly large and anonymous public. The study of the Romantic publishing world and the analysis of the texts and peritexts of novels by Nodier, Hugo, Balzac, Stendhal, Vigny and Mérimée published between 1818 and 1829 cast light on the enunciative modalities of such a process. The Romantic relationship between authors and readers was not based on nostalgia for a declining oral culture. In spite of its rhetorical dimension the novel constructed its reader in the interstices of the enunciative System disclosed by the text. Alternatively didactic, tender, friendly, playful, literary communication was established by undermining established moral certitudes, sharing an "affective vibration" and playing implicitly with commercial novelistic forms. Irony was part of the process : it revealed the author behind the narrator, while nonetheless endangering the author figure itself. Indeed, the construction of the new literary relationship was partly based on the ambiguous search for a "catch-me-if-you-can" author. Thus, Romantic novelists criticized biographical reading, which is usually considered part of what Paul Benichou has called the "sacre de l'écrivain", but they also led the reader to explore the legends of an emerging authorial myth

Full textPiarres Larzabal, playwright of the twentieth century, was an important partner of the Basque theatre. His plays have always been appreciated by the public. His work represents, nevertheless, an essential turning point for the resurgence of the attachment to the culture. Piarres Larzabal played a decisive role in this period. His objective consisted in making of this theatre of patronage a theatre of which all would be proud. A theatre organized in the villages, leaning on groups existing around the priests, groups which took care of the entertainment and the young people. Because it is indeed the young people who are going to invest at first in this theater. A social phenomenon is going to get organized around the theatre, presenting various facets and touching, over the years, all the generations of Basque-speakers. For the organizers, and as this organization took shape, it seemed evident that it was necessary to look for quality, to satisfy the public by proposing to them better and better elaborated works. Beyond this objective, other important elements are going to appear, such as a space of communication in Basque. We shall describe this space which was an answer to the disappearence of the official, public space of the Basque language. The theatre offered then the possibility of creating a new space where the communication, the word was in Basque. It is a movement which settled down spontaneously and gradually, unpretentious, without real awareness of its importance in the collective consciousness. It was a large-scale cultural action, with a considerable impact in the Basque-speaking world

Gong, Baorong. "Entre "je" et "ils" : l'esthetique et l'histoire du theatre d'arthur adamov." Paris 3, 1987. http://www.theses.fr/1987PA030047.
Full textThe theatre of adamov, which combines the essential characteristics of some principal modern aesthetics, is one of the most important in the contemporary french theatrical history. Considering his continuous evolution, we have divided it into three periods in our study. The first is the period of "subjectivity". As a way of exorcism, this theatre has above all the function to communicate to the public the author's feelings like suffrance, loneliness, separation, etc. Rejecting the sovereignty of "sire le mot", adamov advocate a "living theatre", linked "absolutely, corporally and entirely" with the performance in which the gesture occupies the main place. But the subjectivity is particularly obvious through the increasing importance of the "onirisme", the treatment of the space and the time, and the manipulation of objects. The second, called the "objective", is the result of his contact with the brecht epic theatre. Semi-marxist, adamov has a new conception of the world. Therefore, the theatre he seeks is a "total theatre", capable of giving an account of every aspect of the life. The me, solitary and suffering, is replaced from now on by the historical events and by those who have their social activities within the definite space and time. This objective theatre incite the public to reflection and to criticizing the society, through the process of "desolidarisation". However, neither the first nor the second has given the satisfaction to adamov who tries to combine them. Consequently, the final period is that of "subjectivo-objectivity". In this theatre, the conscious coexists with the unconscious, the real with the unreal and the curable with the incurable. It is a tool of exorcizing as well as of denunciation. Due to this new aethetics, adamov has produced two masterpieces: off limits and si l'ete revenait. In spite of the difference of these periods, we must stress on the fact that the theatre of adamov represent an undeniable unity

Full textMadness reflects a kind of discontinuous writting. It is characterized by the use of certain rethorical devices which express specific states of mind. Eugene ionesco adapts this procedure to his theater because by definition both theater and madness belong to the realm of illusion and unbalance. Eugene ionesco doest not treat madness on his theater as a mental illness, but rather as an esthetic game in which one plays with words, objects and images. The author enjoys destituting words from their throne to replace them by scenic language (objects, lighting, sounds, movements). In order to corroborate our hypothesis, we have analysed some representative settings of "la cantatrice chauve" and "la lecon" to reach a visualization of the different aspects of this madness, anguish, euphoria and crave are frozen into images. Eugene ionesco's theater of madness, but this madness is not affected at all by the defeat of the other self

Full textVoltaire is the brightest and the most prolific playwright of his generation. Heir of the big tragic poets of the XVIIth century, he nevertheless wants to reinvent the classic tragedy among which certain rules and agreements seem to him harmful to the creation (for example in the development of the action(share)), but his personal aspiration collide with his own theatrical culture and with the waits(expectations) of a public conservative(curator). By consequence between reforms, innovations, English influences and fidelity in the classic tradition, he(it) gropes. There is at Voltaire at the same moment an attachment to the taste and to the spirit of the classicism, and a real will to break with many aspects of the classic aesthetics. His tragedy vacillates then between membership (support) and aversion in the values of the Big century and establishes (constitutes) itself a new theatrical aesthetics. It is a tragedy at least revolutionary, the consequences of which on the future of the classic tragedy can arouse questioning

Full textAn attempt to refund the "artes sermocinales" in the italian quattrocento finds in the dialogue a most fertile ground to express itself. Since the production of meaning is overtly linked to the enunciative procedures used in the dialogue, the revival of this literary form is apt to raiseamong contemporary critics - a set of questions which proceed from a current and obvious interest for language, as witnessed in philosophy, linguistics and literary theories (ef. The fields and notions of pragmatics, rhetoric, enunciation. . . ). Clarifying such an hermeneutic relationsip intends to renew the understanding of a whole series of texts typical of the period. Asserting the heuristic and ethic virtues of debates and allowing for the constraints of argumentation tend to play a growing part in the works of leon battista alberti (1404-1472). The "inventor" of the vulgar dialogue. The new type of "speaking subject" who emerges therefrom cannot be dissociated from the linguistic choices made by the author of libri della famiglia (1433-34 and 1437), theogenius (c. 1440) and profugiorum ab aerumna libri (e. 1442). Through a careful analysis of the dialogic facture of these texts, one can observe, in the practical use of language, the advent of a model of harmonious relationships which standas the very opposite of the erring ways and other deviations that the latin alberti fustigates through irony, parody and paradox. The "legitima costruzione" of alberti's vulgar dialogues lays the foundations of a "dialogic play" which continuously features the prerequisites of a reconsidered "communicability"

Full textThe present thesis in 3 volumes tries to make up, at least partially, for the absence up to the present of any critical edition of the Mystery of the Acts of the Apostles, a monumental work of approximately 60 000 lines written during the 15th century, preserved in two manuscripts and three editions of the 16th century. The first part presents the results of our research as to the identity of the author and the date of composition of the text. The study and the comparison of the manuscripts and the editions of the work, as well as the question of the choice of the reference text for our edition are equally included. This section, where we also deal with the representations of the play, is completed by a literary and dramaturgic study. The second part contains the established text for the first two days of the mystery play, that is approximately 12 000 lines. The third part provides notes concerning the text, a selection of alternatives, a list of the characters with lines distribution, an index of proper names, a glossary, a list of expressions and proverbs, as well as a bibliography. This volume also includes 13 additional documents and 23 plates

Full textDespite the differences that oppose both dramatic arts, French imitations of the Spanish Golden Age theatre blossomed between 1630 and 1660. This study first recalls the cultural context in which these adaptations took place and the most striking features of the comedia. Then the analysis focuses on the characters in the tragi-comedies and comedies of three authors whose works are representative of the general trends : Rotrou, Boisrobert and Scarron. The choice of their reference models and the changes they made to them reveal that their interest is linked with the aristocratic value system praised by the Spanish theatre and its game of false appearances built on disguises. The adapters also distorted the structure of the comedia, introducing an imbalance between the characters, which tend to have fixed features. The comparison between French adaptations and their Spanish sources clarifies the evolutions and permanent features of this imitation movement which contributed to the development of the French theatre during the XVIIth century. It stresses that although both dramatic arts rely on the same principles, like propriety and verisimilitude, they led to opposite ideas of dramatic illusion

Full textAlthough Feuchtwanger owes his workdwide fame to a historical novel,Jud Süss (1925), his dramatic works (sixteen original plays and a dozen adaptations) mark his career as a writer, from 1905 to 1948, from munich to Berlin, and from Berlin to his exile in the USA. A playwright before he was a novelist, he tried all styles : drawing-room comedies, historical, philosophical, topical plays, satirical revues. His drama inspired some of his nivels and influenced his narrative style. The originality of the great contemporary dramatists Feuchtwanger met tended to overschadow his plays. He was compared with Georg Kaiser, Ernst Toller, and particularly B. Brecht, whose influence on his style was decisive. Their lifetime friendship and collaboration, which started in 1919, helped Brecht to clarify his idea of epic drama, and Feuchtwanger to give a more prominent role to speech and body, thus braking with a theatre of ideas based on discourse and oppositional structures. His best play, the Oild islands (1927), is brechtian in its writing. The 1990 production of Thomas Wendet (1919), a revolution play, after the fall of the Berlin wall, shows that his drama is still alive

Full textAn exhaustive survey of Gide’s activities related to the theatre shows how, within his literary career, a genuine dramatic career emerged and what attraction drama always exerted on him. Gide had an exacting conception of dramatic production, centered on the notion of 'characters', which to his mind were the only means of propounding new forms of heroism. While he attached great importance to the literary qualities of the dramatic text, he expressed much reluctance to submit to the constraints of the theatrical performance and found it difficult to comply with them in practice. His ideas throw light on his dramatic production, though there is no direct correlation between the two. These works, however diverse in form, are characterized by one original dramatic formula: a central figure embodying some of Gide’s own ideas in a forceful way, secondary characters to by understand only in relation to the central figure, an interiorized action, a disregard for adventures to the benefit of the inner necessity which guides heroes. In his dramatic works, as in his narratives, Gide experiments with potentials, lives experiences by proxy. The same moral, religious and political concerns are to be found in them. But the objectivities inherent in the dramatic form, and the embodiment of these values in heroes from the antiquity or biblicaltimes, tend to sever these concerns from the author, even though Gide cannot refrain from manifesting his presence through irony

Full textThe purpose of this study was to compare three authors writing in different idioms, all three belonging to the XVIIth century: Shakespeare, Calderon and Corneille. We tried to show that their theatrical works offer the features of a baroque aesthetics, refusing consequently the image of a classical Corneille. We choosed one of the aspects which represents the best the baroque in the theater: madness. The theme of madness leaded us to examine, in a linguistical, stylistical and literary point of view, some characteristics common or divergent between this English, Spanish and French theater. First, we began to point out in these three authors that some characters were having an unbounded desire of power and domination, representing on stage what we called "a Prometheus challenge". From this point, we established that the linguistical and stylistical expression of madness was not necessarily appearing with an hyperbolical language but, paradoxically, with a rational language. We studied then the madness of love, and more particularly jealousy, which symbolizes a DionysiaC baroque, producing, in the tragedy or the comedy, the violence of passion. Finally, we saw that madness could present clinical and pathological signs and symbolize therefore a spiritual, somatical and macrocosmical disorder, described with precision by the three authors. In conclusion, this work shows that the topic of madness perfectly reflects a theatrical baroque with different faces in the works of Shakespeare, Calderon and Corneille
Bereksi, Lamia. "Culture populaire et jeux d'écriture chez Abdelkader Alloula." Besançon, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004BESA1013.
Full textAbdelkader Alloula was an Algerian playwright who was assassinated in 1994. All his works converging on the popular culture dominated the Algerian theatre, when looked at globally popular culture being a very important part of the theatre scene both before and after independence, the principal works on which the research was based being, El-Agoual (The Talk)1980. El-Adjouad (The Generous)1984. El-Litham (The Veil) 1989. It is necessary to find the trace of popular culture in these three plays and how it is represented by the various characters, analyse of the original text being in Arabic and edited posthumously, the analyse of the scenes being based on the video tapes recovered from Algerian television who used the influence of Brecht's Petite Organon. The three plays have a dialogue between them. This is explained in the intertextualité chapter. The three plays on which the research was based where translated in 1995, eight months after the death of the author, how can we talk about a true interpretation of the original text when it was not openly available until 1997. It is in this light that we can compare the original text in Arabic with the text in French, giving precise examples of the semantic differences. While it is true that a translation is a treasonable act to the original text, at this level it goes as far as to loose the notion of the popular culture, which is synonymous to the spontaneity, the theatre of Abdelkader Alloula his characters and the way he uses the scenic space. It is in this way that the analyse of his works is made
