Abstract:
Dans la quatrième de couverture de l’ouvrage de Jean-Claude Germain intitulé La double vie littéraire de Louis Fréchette (2014), on lit cette petite phrase : « Louis Fréchette ! Ce nom fait partie de l’inconscient collectif des Québécois : on l’a donné à des rues, des écoles, des bibliothèques ». Fréchette (1839-1908) est sans doute l’un des quelques noms qui sont parvenus jusqu’à nous de la littérature canadienne-française du dix-neuvième siècle. Bien qu’on le connaisse plutôt pour ses poèmes et pour ses contes, Fréchette a été aussi dramaturge. Il a écrit et adapté plusieurs textes pour la scène, qui ont eu connu une large diffusion et une bonne réception au Canada. Ses pièces ont été publiées dans de grandes maisons d’édition de l’époque comme Beauchemin. Elles ont été représentées tant par des amateurs que par des troupes professionnelles dans de grandes salles de théâtre au Québec. On pense, entre autres, à Félix Poutré (1871), au Retour de l’exilé (1880), à Papineau (1880) et à Veronica (1974, publication posthume). Un fait intéressant : Félix Poutré devient la pièce la plus jouée par des amateurs canadiens et franco-américains au dix-neuvième siècle (Germain 63). Cet article porte sur le théâtre de Fréchette, plus précisément sur les modes de production de ses pièces (texte et représentation) et leurs réceptions. Je tenterai de répondre aux questions suivantes : comment Fréchette procède-t-il au théâtre (la fable, l’intrigue, la structure, etc.) ? Où se situe-t-il par rapport à la tradition théâtrale et culturelle au Québec au dix-neuvième siècle ? Comment les productions de ses pièces sont-elles perçues par le public et par la critique ?

Abstract:
In his essay titled “Drawing Blood” for Harper's magazine in June 2006, written as a response to the Muhammad cartoon affair, Art Spiegelman argued convincingly that a cartoon is, first and foremost, a cartoon. It sounds straightforward, but is it really? Following Spiegelman, we can define caricatures as charged or loaded images that compress ideas into memorable icons, namely clichés. A cartoon must have a point, and a good cartoon can change our perspective on the ruling order. Spiegelman opens his discussion with classical caricatures such as Honoré Daumier's 1831 depiction of King Louis-Philippe as Gargantua and George Grosz's 1926 attack on the “Pillars of Society” (“Stützen der Gesellschaft”) as beer-drinking, pamphlet-reading, swastika-wearing men without brains. Spiegelman acknowledges these cartoonists as “masters of insult,” who often had to face trial or imprisonment for their transgressions (45). The question is whether the twelve cartoons of Muhammad, published by the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten on 30 September 2005, are in any way compatible with the great tradition of caricature.

Full text
Abstract:
Dans l'étude de la correspondance inédite de Louise Colet à Honoré Clair nous avons pu mettre en évidence la présence de certains éléments constants déjà soulignés à l'occasion d'autres travaux que nous avons publiés sur Louise Colet. Ils représentent une sorte de trame de thèmes de plus vastes portes tels la nostalgie du terroir, le conflit épouse-mère-femme émancipée, la maternité, l'attrait et le refus de Paris, le charme des voyages, l'attachement au travail. Ces thèmes revêtent une valeur paradigmatique : dans les mots des lettres ou dans le jeu allusif des silences, ils nous montrent le chemin plein de détours de la vie de L. Colet. Connue comme la maîtresse de Flaubert, correspondante élue, inspiratrice et "cible" de sa correspondance, elle incarne aussi un exemple de femme plutôt insolite pour son époque. L. Colet belle, cultivée, intelligente, désireuse d'indépendance, fit de l'écriture un divertissement, mais aussi un gagne-pain, un moyen pour se suffire à elle-même et à sa fille. Cette correspondance apporte en écho, mêlés au vécu quotidien, les difficultés, les joies et les peines les succès et les désespoirs d'une femme qui fut et voulut être un écrivain. Les lettres reproduisent sa solitude, qui est en même temps sa liberté, et nous renvoie les images d'une société en pleine transformation de ses institutions et de sa manière de vivre
Our studies of the unpublished correspondence from Louise Colet to Honoré Clair have verified the presence of constant elements, already highlighted in other our works on L. Colet: the nostalgia for the native land, the bride-mother-emancipated woman conflict, motherhood, the attraction for and rejection of Paris, the fascination of travelling, the devotion to work. These themes hold a paradigmatic value: through the wording of the letters or the allusiveness of the unspoken, they show us the richly contrasting path of Louise Colet's life. Although she was known as Flaubert's official mistress, his appointed correspondent, the inspirer and 'target' of his correspondence, L. Colet was also an unusual woman for her times. Beautiful, cultured, intelligent and longing for independence, for L. Colet her writing was not only an intellectual interest, but also a means of keeping herself and her daughter. This correspondence, mingled with everyday life, echoes the difficulties, the sorrows, the successes and troubles of a woman who was and wanted to be a writer. The letters reproduce her solitude which is at the same time her freedom, and provide us with brief but intense flashes of a changing society

Full text
Abstract:
Le XVIe siècle est souvent perçu comme un temps de massacres motivés par les haines confessionnelles, une litanie de carnages et d’exactions à laquelle succéderait, à partir des années 1650 une culture de la reddition honorable, une guerre réglée et limitée caractérisée par une nette amélioration du sort des vaincus. Une humanisation de la guerre se donnerait à lire au travers d’une codification des procédures de capitulation et de reddition des places. Ce travail, suivant les pistes ouvertes par l’anthropologie historique, questionne cette vision caractéristique d’une déréalisation de la guerre pour montrer que la reddition honorable émerge précocement et ne constitue jamais qu’un idéal toujours soumis aux intérêts des belligérants. Mobile de la clémence, l’intérêt est également celui de la rigueur. Tout au long des XVIe et XVIIe siècles, la reddition reste un risque pour l’honneur et la vie des vaincus. Cette histoire de la reddition entend déconstruire le mythe déréalisant de la «guerre en dentelles» pour rappeler que les guerres du règne de Louis XIV ne sont pas le théâtre d’une limitation de la violence
The XVIth century is often perceived as an era of religious driven massacres, a litany of carnage and exactions directly followed, from 1650 onward, by reversing habits of honourable capitulation, a closely regulated and restricted warfare characterized by a great improvement in the fate of the defeated. A humanization of the war would show through a codification of the surrending procedures and the transfer of forteresses. This essay investigates this derealizing vision of warfare, based on historical anthropology’s theoretical leads. It shows that honourable capitulation come about earlier on as an ideal led by the interest of belligerent parties. These interests appear as a major motive for both leniency and rigorousness. All along the XVIth and XVIIth cent., capitulation stands as a risk for the honor and life of the losers. This history of capitulation intends to deconstruct the derealizing myth of chivalrous and limited warfare, to recall the fact that wars under the reign of Louis XIV often led to repeated acts of unleashed violence

Full text
Abstract:
Ce travail voudrait esquisser une histoire philosophique de la tactique française de la fin du XVIIIe siècle aux guerres de décolonisation, sous l’angle de l’individualité militaire. En effet, l’ émergence de l’individu, déjà entamée avant la Révolution , mais éclatant pleinement alors que le soldat devient un citoyen à part entière, soulève la question de sa prise en compte et de sa problématisation par l’institution militaire. Le soldat, dans son individualité, est-il un facteur d’irrationalité et d’imprévisibilité de la manoeuvre, qu’il s’agit alors de ramener à la régularité par l’élaboration d’une tactique scientifique. Ou bien la singularité du combattant doit elle être au contraire le point de départ d’une pensée militaire soucieuse de fidélité empirique ? C’est cette individualisation progressive que nous étudions sous ses différentes modalités sur le champ de bataille, dans la caserne et dans le rapport à la cité ) à partir d’un corpus peu étudié jusqu’à présent par la philosophie. Celui d’écrivains militaires(souvent des officiers) qui, avec plus ou moins de distance par rapport à la doctrine officielle, cherchent à rendre intelligible la guerre moderne et la place de l’individu en son coeur
This work aims at introducing to a philosophical history of French tactics from the late eighteenth century to the decolonization wars. The focus is on the military individuality. The rise of the individual is indeed a reality even prior to the French Revolution . However, it becomes increasingly significant as the soldier steps into its newfound role as a citizen,thereby raising the issue of its status and conceptualization in military thinking. Is the individual a factor of irrationality and unpredictability in a formation, which should therefore remain incheck through scientific use of tactics? Or perhaps the individual in its singularity should rather constitute the starting point of an empirical investigation? The progressive individualization of the soldier in tactical doctrine ― whether in combat, at the barracks, or generally as a citizen ― is analyzed through a body of texts rarely studied by philosophy. These texts arewritten by French military writers (often officers writing outside the bounds of a strict orthodoxy towards official doctrinal teaching), who are attempting to restore some intelligibility to modern warfare and to the action of the individual in its midst

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation explores the numerous literary representations of the femme de lettres during the first half of the nineteenth century in order to illustrate the complexities of women’s entrance into the male-dominated domain of literature and also to suggest the impact these fictional characters might have had on the reception of actual women writers as well as their omission from the century’s literary canon. The works that will be included in this analysis include: Mme de Staël’s Corinne, ou l’Italie, Stendhal’s Le Rouge et le noir, Honoré de Balzac’s Béatrix, La Muse du département and Illusions perdues, Delphine de Girardin’s La Canne de M. de Balzac, Napoline and La joie fait peur and George Sand’s Histoire de ma vie, Lettres d’un voyageur and Un Hiver à Majorque. In compiling such diverse works of literature, it becomes clear that both male and female authors from the early nineteenth century were unable to envision a publicly embraced female genius. Although almost all of the fictional femmes de lettres in this study faced a destiny of professional silence, the reasons given for their failures are split between the male and female authors. For the male authors, the woman as a successful intellectual, artist or author was ultimately impossible because of her inability to combine her female body and psyche with the “masculine” pursuit of knowledge. Conversely, the female authors wrote characters whose inability to fully embrace a public literary or artistic career stemmed from society’s unwillingness to tolerate her exceptionality rather than from an inherent disconnect between genius and the female sex.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractThe Ordonnance de la marine of 1681 marked—at least in theory—a pivotal step forward in enshrining the unfettered maritime authority of the French state. Spearheaded by Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Louis XIV’s famous minister, the wide-reaching Ordonnance assimilated a rich genealogy of customary maritime law into a single proclamation of positive law. Yet very little has been said by historians about how the Ordonnance was compiled. This essay sheds light on this process through studying the Chambre générale des assurances et grosses aventures (1668–1686), a little-known Parisian insurance institution established under the auspices of Colbert. The crown consulted the Chambre on maritime affairs before the Ordonnance was issued. Yet, as an insurance institution, the Chambre was not an impartial source of counsel. This essay analyses the advice given by the Chambre on which entities should contribute to General Average costs in instances of ship redemptions, which bore clear evidence of self-interest. This forced the crown to reinterpret its advice within a broader logic that catered to the interests of other maritime stakeholders at the expense of insurers. This case study invites us to evaluate our understanding of how the Ordonnance was compiled and to reflect more broadly on the interests of the French state in insurance practices across France.

Abstract:
This chapter talks about another great cultural fashion that hit Paris, one deeply steeped in the biomedical science of the day: a vogue for picturesque and satirical books called “physiologies.” It analyzes physiologies' cultural, social, and, above all, scientific settings — focusing on the journalistic or formal aesthetic qualities of the texts. The early physiological craze shows how conventions of medical writing had begun to influence general approaches to literary form and content. The chapter then examines the emergence of the physiological literary genre in the 1820s and 1830s, focusing upon four of the genre's defining works: Dr. Jean-Louis Alibert's La Physiologie des passions (1825), Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin's La Physiologie du goût (1825–1826), Honoré de Balzac's La Physiologie du mariage (drafted in the 1820s, but published in 1830), and Dr. Morel de Rubempré's La Physiologie de la liberté (1830) — the last which appeared in the aftermath of the July Revolution. It focuses upon how these works emerged from techniques of analysis and narration found in physiological medicine, as authors and editors capitalized upon the successes (and scandals) associated with the new physiological science, as it emerged in the early 1800s, but also how these texts engaged particular political and ideological realities of the post-revolutionary decades.

Full text
Abstract:
The decline of France as a European power is an established eighteenth-century development and one that was laid at the Bourbon monarchy's door by its critics during the ancien régime. Within a worldview shaped by the aristocratic honour code, Louis XV and Louis XVI were seen as having dishonoured themselves and the country they ruled, by their political failures and especially the Austrian alliance concluded in 1756. These arguments were then adopted in the early stages of the French Revolution. Restoring that same honour, now increasingly attached to the nation and not the Bourbon dynasty, was a central objective of the members of both the National and Legislative Assemblies, and was integral to the Brissotin campaign for war against Austria, declared in spring 1792. This chapter reinforces the importance of continuities in political culture after 1789 and demonstrates the ways in which foreign policy was more central to the early Revolution than sometimes appreciated, contributing to the ‘nationalisation of honour’ (Hampson), as the nation and not the monarchy, became its focus.

Full text
Abstract:
Taking French ambassadorial reports from the reign of Louis XIV as an example, this chapter argues that in their letters to their superiors, French ambassadors expressed themselves not primarily as professional diplomats, but as eminent members of French court society and potential aspirants to even higher charges and honours. First and foremost, early modern diplomats abided by the ethos of patronage. Far from home, the ambassador still obeyed the social logic of court factions, clientele networks, and competition for prestige. His letters had to compensate for his physical absence from Versailles, as his only currency in the French court society’s economy of honour. The ambassador therefore used his letters as a specific means of displaying his skills and abilities, and distinguishing and expressing himself. He could fashion himself as honnête homme, noble warrior, or pious man of letters—or whatever aristocratic virtue seemed appropriate. In this sense, his letters were genuine self-narratives, and diplomatic history could therefore benefit greatly from methods and concepts elaborated in the dynamic research field of early modern ego-documents. By understanding diplomatic writing as noble self-fashioning and analysing diplomatic correspondence as self-narratives, this chapter reassesses the proper role and specific functioning of diplomacy in early modern political culture.
