Full textThis work aims at showing how, despite a great diversity in the forms and the themes, Ursula K. Le Guin's work organises its coherence around fundamental images and structures. Founded on a basic binary opposition, the writer develops a third term, a synthesis of the two others. This is illustrated by the system of characterisation (of the protagonists) which stages two clans featuring anthropologists who maintain the equilibrium between the two cultures while developing the creation of networks. This principle extends to purely linguistic representations. Le Guin postulates the existence of two languages, the Father tongue, the language of power, and the Mother tongue, the language of dialogue. These two modes of expression, although very different, tend towards harmony in the birth of a third term, the Language of Art, in which oral and written literature, prose and poetry intermingle. Two characters serve to illustrate this: first, the androgyn underlines the problem of sex and highlights the social differences; second, resulting from sexual differentiation, the dragon represents the ideal synthesis of the two sexes, and shows the importance of the maternal and the feminine features. This dream of two into one is also present in a series of recurrent images, namely the masculine stone, and the maternal network, ideally united in representations based on Amerindian dreamcatchers, a model also illustrated by the cobweb and in forms staging dreams. The work is thus a homage to Ursula K. Le Guin's father and mother, well-known anthropologists, and also an illustration of Carol Gilligan's theory of a "different voice"

Full textThe making of names in the fiction of Ursula K. Le Guin is an overdetermined genetic process that invites comparison with three familiar models of literary creation : bricolage, deconstruction and psychogenesis (jokework and dreamwork). Onomastic ceration lies at the heart of the Earthsea cycle, and the topic of genesis is in fact a central preoccupation of contemporary fantasy. At the same time, this literary corpus has taken that same linguistic turn which characterizes the épistèmè of the major part of literature and the humanities in the present age. Putting these two observations together, one arrives at the idea that, from the point of view of its language, the essence of fantasy lies in a linguistic return : a movement back to the origins of the text and the genre as a whole, and also to an ancient or premodernist perception of speech and writing similar to that found in La pensée sauvage (the savage mind) and childhood, both of which emphasize the concrete, corporal elements of language. Keeping these ideas in mind, one finds that this study of the fabrication of names in Le Guin's fantasy is materialistic in its outlook and methodology, and that the emphasis on sound and form, voice and body leads towards fields of investigation rather different from traditional literary onomastics, oftentimes exceeding the ordinary limits of interpretation

Full textFantasy is now one of the major literary genres of imaginative fiction and one of the most prolific. Claiming to be the mythic literature of our time, it is mainly inspired by mythological narratives and fairy-tales, and it often organises its stories around a central quest. Since that quest constantly reappears in Fantasy space-times, often implies mythic supernatural beings, such as Elves, and becomes the object of a tale about a lost past, it functions as a genuine myth inside the genre.The present study intents to analyse the Fantasy quest myth in order to highlight its main aspects, and, through them, the favourite themes of Fantasy fiction. Through the comparative analysis of J.R.R. Tolkien’s «The Lord of the Rings» and «The Silmarillion», Ursula K. Le Guin’s «Earthsea Series» and Léa Silhol’s «La Glace et la Nuit. Opus un – Nigredo», the Fantasy quest myth is replaced in the literary history. Besides the analysis shows that, despite its apparent archaic aspects, Fantasy fiction is a modern genre and a relevant discourse about human condition
