Full textThis study is about René Girard's and Milan Kundera's essays on the art of the novel. According to these two authors the novel is pre-eminently a source of knowledge. At the first, we attempted to grasp the way in which Kundera and Girard perceive the novel's gnoseological function, as being distinguished, opposed or supplementing to the knowledge within social sciences and philosophy. Secondly, we tried to clarify the prospects that such an idea offers to literary criticism. The dead ends of structuralism and the emergence of the cultural studies force criticism to redefine its own function as well as the function of literature itself. By studying the relations that Girard and Kundera maintain with the literary criticism of the second half of the 20th century, we tried to show that their work can contribute actively to the current debates

Full textThe work herein is dedicated to the aspects of transtextuality in the work of Milan KUNDERA (born in 1929), which as yet haven't been studied in KUNDERA scholarship. It deals with and focuses on the relationship between KUNDERA'S work and the works of four authors: Denis DIDEROT (1713 – 1784), Franz KAFKA (1883 – 1924), Hermann BROCH (1886 – 1951) and Vladislav VANČURA (1891 – 1924). VANČURA, one of the most important Czech writers, was influential in the founding of the avant-garde movement in Czechoslovakia. We also searched for and studied the presence of avant-gardist intertexts in KUNDERA'S work. KUNDERA'S novels are well known by the French public, but we have also taken into account his written work which exists exclusively in the Czech language: poetry, short stories, and his theoretical work on VANČURA, entitled The Art of the Novel, published in Prague in 1960. In the first part, we have made a comparison between Jacques and His Master by KUNDERA and DIDEROT'S novel Jacques the Fatalist and His Master. According to the terms delineated by G. GENETTE, it is the only example of massive and declared hypertextuality in KUNDERA'S work. In the second part, we have researched the intertexts of KAFKA, BROCH and VANČURA in the work of KUNDERA. In addition, we have studied the context of the culture of the period and the circumstances in which KUNDERA encountered the work of each of these authors. We have searched out, described and analyzed the intertexts which exist in the work of KUNDERA in order to answer the following: What is the character of the intertext and in what measure does it exist in KUNDERA'S work? Does Kundera's work really share a common poetic with these predecessors, or has his association with them been more a conscious personal strategy? And finally, we have attempted to delineate and establish the functions of transtextuality in the work of KUNDERA

Full textAs a foreigner living in France, we were initially encouraged to study writers such as Nancy Huston, Louis Wolfson, Andreï Makine, who wrote in a language different from their own. In exile, these authors have quit their mother tongue, to speak in French. They evolved between two languages. Therefore, what language could be considered as their own? For them, when did French cease to be a foreign language? More generally, what remains of an author who has chosen to express himself in another language? These questions are illustrated by the biography of Milan Kundera, whose life and work have been shaped by the language change. In 1975 he left Czechoslovakia and settled in France. In his writings, in which we can feel the strength of History, the French gradually replaces Czech. To what extent did this change alter the course of his life and thoughts? What role did the exile play in his work and fame? To answer these questions, we studied his articles, plays, novels and the reception that was done to them in France and abroad
Ivanova, Velichka. "Philip Roth et Milan Kundera, ou le roman aux prises avec l’Histoire." Paris 3, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA030057.
Full textThe study analyzes, in a comparative approach, the light that the modern novel casts on contemporary history. For this purpose the dissertation associates the Czech Milan Kundera and the American Philip Roth. It includes four works of each: The Joke (1967), Life is Elsewhere (1973), The Book of Laughter and Forgetting (1979), The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1984) by Kundera, American Pastoral (1997), I Married a Communist (1998), The Human Stain (2000), and The Plot against America (2004), by Roth. For the two writers, History is both a personal experience and a novelistic issue. The study progressively brings out the convergence between two fictional worlds which, at first appearance, seem to be complete opposites. Indeed, Kundera and Roth distance themselves from the dominant ideologies — authoritarian socialism of the ex-communistic regimes, on the one hand, and American democracy, on the other. The first chapter manifests the way the authors view heritage in its double dimension of personal history and literary patrimony. The second chapter considers a common rejection of the pathos of History. It focuses on the central role assigned to the motifs of the Utopian dream, of time, and of memory. The third chapter analyses the manner that the rewriting of real events and the construction of the novel transform history into a literary discourse. The study comes to a close with an analysis of the position of the author in the modern novel prompted by the autofictional element. In both authors, autofiction contributes to discredit and reinvent history

Full textThis study consists of an integrated linguistic analysis of the work of Milan Kundera. By integrated analysis, we mean a linguistic study carried out through qualitative and quanti-tative methods. These methods belong to the field of textometry, a discipline whose objective is to analyse textual corpora through computer processing (Guiraud, 1960; Lebart, Salem, 1994; Pincemin, 2020). More generally, this work could therefore be included in the field of stylometry, since this textometric analysis is functional to the characterization of a style of writing (Magri, 2010). Indeed, the main objective of this research is to detect by contrast the elements that define Kundera's prose. To this end, two corpora were composed : a corpus of study and a reference corpus (Rastier, 2011). The first comprehends almost all the texts of Kundera's Œuvre I, II (Gallimard, Pléiade). The second is representative of the French literary landscape of the period in which Kundera published his texts (1968-2013).The corpora were first digitised and then examined using the textometry software Hyperbase (web and standard version), which employs both classical statistical methods and deep learning techniques (CNN, Convolutional neural network).This software allows various analyses on lexical, morphosyntactic and semantic levels. In particular, the following elements have been investigated : the vocabulary structure, morphological and syntactic aspects, morphosyntactic and multidimensional patterns, and finally the thematic structure.These elements were examined in an endogenous analysis of the corpus of study and in a series of exogenous analyses between the corpus of study and the reference corpus. Indeed, comparative studies between Kundera's work and the contrastive norm represented by the reference corpus aim to isolate the linguistic characteristics of the literary language of the time in novels, essays and short stories, in order to detect the distinguishing elements of Kundera's prose that differ from the linguistic model of his contemporaries' literary language. In addition, endogenous analyses of Kundera's work - made possible by the compilation of subcorpora - can account for linguistic constants that are independent of genre, period and/or language, as well as for linguistic variants determined by literary genre, diachronic and/or linguistic variability. In conclusion, this study employs an integrated methodology (linguistics, literature, statistics, deep learning) with the aim of defining the prototypical features of Kundera's idiolect, that is, the most significant elements that distinguish his writing from that of a representative sample of his contemporary French authors

Full textThe philosophical novel, by its ambiguity and complexity, remains an open field of research which continually arouses interest and reflection. How does philosophy influence novel writing? Is there a philosophy proper to the novel, a thought that only the novel is likely to elaborate? How to resolve the tension between narration and argumentation in the philosophical novel, a hybrid genre ? To answer these questions, we retrace briefly the history of philosophical novels in the Western and Chinese context, analyze its fundamental characteristics and propose a typology of philosophical novels whose boundary is still undefined. In order to characterize more specifically the modern philosophical novel (in twentieth century), we focus on the work of Milan Kundera and Shi Tiesheng (史铁生), especially Notes on Abstract Questions (务 虚 笔 记) of the latter. The novelists combine traditional practices with various innovations in terms of languages, characters and structure. Their practice helps not only to reconcile the internal tension, proper to the philosophical novel, but also to push the narrative and generic boundaries in order to nourish reflection without sacrificing the “pleasure of the text”. Finally, from a reflection associated with the experience in terms of body, exile and creation of two authors, their novels echo philosophical thoughts such as taoism, scepticism and phenomenology without being part of them. Beyond its traditional role as a relay of knowledge, an instrument of pedagogy or an allegory of an idea, the modern philosophical novel becomes a laboratory where a thinking proper to the novel develops. Subversive, paradoxical and « useless », it ventures into fiction to reach its complexity and richness
Suditu, Loredana. "Milan kundera : l'identité à l'épreuve de l'exil : des frontières intérieures et extérieures." Angers, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010ANGE0061.
Full textWhen the theme of internal and external exile is chosen by a writer whose exile is atypical and whose work questions a world where exile itself became an atypical phenomenon, what is the acquired meaning ? Neither as a cosmopolitan writer nor in his novels does Milan Kundera understand exile in its usual meaning of dispossession, dislocation and suffering. Its meaning evolves rather in the sense of an assumed break with various forms of totalitarianism, whether political or anthropological, inferred by the "other", the modern world, the words or the images. In Kundera's novels, one can perceive the random nature of the classic identical parameters : social identity, physical identity, continuity in time, identification with one's mother tongue, roots and past. Besides, the relation with "other" unfolds under the ceaseless dynamics of masks and warping identity mirrors. Kundera so widens the meaning of uprootedness and carries a disenchanted glance on concepts such as nostalgia, return and home. In order to find their "self", Kundera's characters achieve internal and external displacements. They cross existential borders in space, time and spirit and find themselves exiled from all theit identity clichés. They partially find the centrality of their "self" in what they think is peripheral, and which, interiorized, provides identity. Nevertheless, identity and exile remain an open subject in Kundera's novels, as any identity process is at once ambivalent and individual, without acquiring the sense of a paradigm
Bongo, Nadia. "L'altérité : dans les oeuvres d'Agota Kristof et de Milan Kundera." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012AIXM3134.
Full textThe subject of my thesis is the otherness in the work of Agota Kristof and Milan Kundera. Their opposite styles are link by their defiance towards lyricism and mimesis. Moreover, they have a similar biography for they underwent the war, the soviet totalitarianism and exile. In this comparative study I interrogate the notion and its role in the shaping of the authors' writing. My inquiry focuses on four main subjects divided into fourth parts: the writing, the discourse, the body and creation. My method is interdisciplinary for I use the work of critics such as levinas, Lacan or Bakhtine. In the first part, I define and present the implications of the otherness and related notions regarding the construction of the novel. The writing relies on fragmentation by mixing different points of view, levels of narration and narratives (dream sequences, autobiography, anecdotes). Various elements are constructed and deconstructed expressing the split dynamic. The second part deals with the discourse regarding otherness. Seemingly opposite speeches (internal/external, direct/indirect) express that of the self. Paradoxically, the dialogue leads to the loss of otherness. Polyphony intertwines several voices: of the self, of the other, of society and in Kristof's case, of the officials. Does Otherness rely on their equilibrium? Yet, otherness begs the question regarding the link between the body and the discourse. The third part defines a corporal writing. Different discourses invite various understandings and experiences of the body for he can also appear to be the other
Estrada, Vargas Graciela. "Ironie et parodie dans l’écriture romanesque contemporaine : Saramago, Fuentes, Kundera." Paris 3, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA030119.
Full textThe study of irony and parody in the writing of novels of Saramago, Fuentes and Kundera turns out to be an efficient means to comprehend a certain number of stylistic particularities of these writers, as well as to highlight their points of convergence. The relation between the writers includes friendship, similar actions as intermédiaires and same concerns. This study deals with some of their concepts. In their writings, we study a range of traditions, techniques and periods (from Diderot to Broch, from Cervantes to Ionesco). Among them, the scatological dimension, visible in the Cervantes works, which, in the contemporary novel written by the three writers, becomes a technique of ironic creation. The novels which are studied were published between 1958 and 1995. Using irony and parody, the three novelists reappraise the truth (of religion, politics, moral, society, art) that influences the spirit of contemporary societies. The Bible parody is a point of convergence in their writings, but with stylistic particularities. These novelists turn their back on any ideology, truth (certainty) or convention believed to be irrefutable by using irony and humour. The theoretic chapters of this study provide a historical panorama in order to distinguish the classic from the modern and post-modern parody and irony, including a detailed look about the differences between parody and pastiche, satire, meta-fiction and it’s interaction with irony. This study offers a model based on three major axes: the Sacred profanation, the Truth bifurcation and the Norm condemnation, to analyse irony and parody in the novels of the three writers
