Ben, Saïd Mohamed Ali. "La poétique de la morbidité dans les romans de Joris-Karl Huysmans et Michel Houellebecq." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Université Côte d'Azur, 2022. http://www.theses.fr/2022COAZ2009.
Full textThe poetics of morbidity in Joris-Karl Huysmans and Michel Houellebecq novels.Joris-Karl Huysmans is a XIX th Century novelist having belonged to the naturalistic trend whose figurehead is no one other than Emile Zola's. However, his literary universe will distance itself compared to the standards of naturalistic novel to explore other underground routes characterized by peculiarity and originality, it will be then classified among the most representative novelists of the ‘decadentist' movement through, in particular his touchstone novel ‘À rebours' said ‘neurosis novel'. Michel Houellebecq is a French novelist of the XX-XXIth century, known to address, in his novels, sensitive issues related mainly to the decline of western civilization. His novels (from "whatever" to "serotonine") are focused in particular on cold and objective analysis on the contemporary French society state (thus by western extension) via the staging of weakened characters both psychically and physically, projected in a society consumed by wild liberalism and with which they cannot interact. Comparisons between the literary universes of the two authors will be done through the prism of morbidity. Indeed, both in Michel Houellebecq and Joris-Karl Huysmans, morbidity that is the diverse manifestations of the disease (whether psychic or physical) the determining factor in the construction of their intrigues. Furthermore, a recurrent malaise seems pulling constantly the characters of both authors so that it tends to influence directly their relation with their immediate environments. Therefore, their perception of time, space, art, morality seems constantly impregnated with permanent pessimism
Sŏ, Sŭng-sŏk. "L'identification dans l'oeuvre de Paul Éluard." Paris 4, 1993. http://www.theses.fr/1993PA040063.
Full textIdentification, in the work of paul eluard, is an experience fundamental in one existence. It coincides with the act of poetry; to create is to identify with what one names. The poet never ceases to search for his identity by projecting himself in the world that surrounds him. It is in the course of this quest that he develops in harmonious relation with others and with the world. According to eluard, identification consists not only in "leaving oneself" but also in penetrating the essence of things, of the world, and in participating in the totality of the universe in order to better communicate with the universal soul. The eyes of the beloved woman, in which the lover multiplies his reflection, are the privileged site of identification. The exchange of looks between the lovers results in a single look. The act of seeing becames the act of identification itself. Eluard's identification is a means of going beyand the human condition. Through the multiplication of his likenesses, which consitutes a constant affirmation of his presence, the poet overcomes his fear of solitude and death. Through the perfect fusion with his beloved, he becomes, like androgynus, the total man, and through his ceaseless birth he becames immortal like phoenix. In his universe everything unites in a total, eternal harmony. Thanks to his power to found he is a master of time, and he invents a free space for his own use. Through the poetic experience of identification eluard achieves the total overcaming of himself, the supreme state of liberation, and thus he opens to humanism a new horizon of perfection

Full textThe first part of this study examines the four fundamental passions, according to the order Virgil himself stated: fear and desire, pain and joy. The second part is devoted to their amplification: love, horror and misfortune, rage, follow one another. This research is founded on words and their frequency: passion is revealed a privileged place where human being deals with "the sacred", both in revolt and obedience. But, however strong it may be, passion is fated to give way to smiling gentleness

Full textA natural obstacle, mountains bring together those who originate from them as well as those who display a passion for them. However the hard living conditions of the alpine peasant is now known only through a few writers. That life in a state of nature has been too often considered as the confirmation of the eden-related origins of mankind. 19th century writers projected themselves into that world of wonders propitions to supernatural meetings and animated or peopled by them with fantastic beings. The bravest among them conveyed to us the hard battles they were fighting in their quest for a hypothetical grail. Now then, that privileged environment appears to be the center of the world where the axis mundi rises, a traditional route enabling the connection between the immanent and the transcendental across the earthly paradise, that cloister for the elect which conceals the celestial steps intended to allow the dreamer as well as the mystic to accomplish, in Dante's manner, the ultimate ascent towards heaven. If many climbers, until the beginning of this century, were persuaded they would meet god on these summits, they were not often aware that sloping lands were places propitions to a form of initiation which entitled them to experience enlightenment after the descent to hell they had known, the anabasis after the catabasis; the glacier and the steep slopes that lead to the pinnacles played there the part of the labyrinth, that place of trial which opens the way to the initiatory cave, a symbolic inverted image of the mountain. Following the same movement, mystics and poets, dispensing with the physical support of mountains or their monumental representations, perform in their existence an endlessly renewed ascent in accordance with the descensus-ascensus process achieved by the son of man

Full textAn unusual movement of a retlective reciprocity, impels the relationships between The Double and the fields of thought and narration. Even before the development of philosophy and psychoanalysis, ,mages of the Twins and the Double appeared in the major constituent symbols of cultural organization, and were already clearly conveyed in tales. The Double is both at the heart 9f, as well as, the border of thought. It is also at work in our relationships to mirrors, gazes, in the search for our own faces. For some, The Double joins psychological modalities expressed by the languages of being, and the diversity of these figurations are seen in both classic and modern tales, in multiple and prolific ways. These literary theories and their 1 typologies, should therefore be examined in relation to the traditional meanings of the Double, in orde to fully ml-'Jerstari.d the journey and find the axes that bring coherence to a diffracted enseri1ble. Duality, and the faces of the double will also be the object of a typological proposai combining these two aspects to define the trajectories of the double. Starting in a position of recognizing the convergence and the interdependence of thought and narration, and after integrating the diverse contributions of psychoanalytical and literary theories, this thesis will study the creative and curative contributions of the genre to pursue a new psychoanalytical perspective The conclusions of this journey, illustrated through various children clinical studies and their relationship to the Double, imaginary companions and to tales, will allow a more global view of this problem
Yano, Taku. "La littérature engagée en France." Nantes, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009NANT3010.
Full textThis thesis underlines the numerous parallels that exist during the period between the French and Japanese situation. It examines the work of writers such as Jean-Paul Sartre, Michel Leiris, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Claude Simon, Georges Perec, Shohei Ooka, Yukio Mishima, Kobo Abe, Junnosuke Yoshiyuki, Kenzaburô Oe as well as example of literary and political movement such as Les Temps modernes, Nouveau Roman, Tel Quel, Kindai bungaku (Modern Literature), « Daisan no shinjin » (the new writers of the third type), « Be-hei-ren » (Citizen’s League for Peace in Vietnam). The expression of « Engaged literature » (literature of commitment), born immediately just after the Second World War in France deeply influenced French and Japanese writers in the literary history of the second half of the twentieth century. Indeed, their literary manifesto in its relationship to History maintained its effectiveness until the end of the 1960s. Above all, the conception of « Engaged literature » emphasizes the social responsibility of writers to the public. Their novelistic works also reconcile literature and the history of ideas through Marxism. However, on several occasions these writers met with difficulties when faced with international political events. Their adherence to revolutionary ideology collapsed definitively with the fall of socialism and the prosperity of the society of consumption in the 1980s. The failure of the myth of History led the writers toward the question of the « era of Postmodern emptiness ». However, the end of History promised new beginnings. The incomplete attempts of writers from the post-war period thus put forward the possibility to reconstruct a new form of literary engagement
Miguel-Mazoyer, Anne-Valérie de. "Psychologie de l'identité féminine au risque de la création littéraire." Montpellier 3, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005MON30037.
Full textBordered by the maternal one, the female identity is called in question to each crisis of life. The maternity, considered as one of these crises, can result in an impossibility to work out around maternal, as the sign the private clinic of the termination of pregnancy and infantile ill-treatment. With the place of a crossing of maternal, the suffering settles. This work proposes to analyze the incidence of maternal in the literary creation of four women writers (Mac Cullers, Hebert, Morrison, Huston). The exit of the release of maternal at the personal level marks the writing of these women: either their hero remains under the icy influence of maternal possessive, or it faces the specific crisis, while emancipant himself. The destiny of maternal points out that of the exile, connecting the four female authors. The exile can announce the change (language, of culture. . . ) but it can also remain with the state of unsatisfied running away. If the confrontation of with the maternal one is not balanced by an incomprehensible loss, then the writing becomes the sum of the female experiments. On the contrary, if the maternal one remains morbid (absence, death, ill-treatment), then the heroes choose imaginary solutions (recourse to the double, with the dream) or irreversible passages to the act (suicide, murder). The two types of writing, one marking the hero of fundamental instability and the other of sufficient bases to be maintained in spite of the crisis, account for the shelves in the crossing, which must lead to the stamping from the woman by the medium of creation
Franceschi, Élisabeth de. "Pulsion de mort et sublimation : la création littéraire et artistique." Paris 4, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA040085.
Full textThe aim of this research is to study the impact of death instinct on sublimation, particularly its influence on the act of artistic creation ; the fields of exploration are literature, music, plastic arts ; the method of investigation is psychoanalytical. The first part is focalized on the concept of death instinct in psychoanalytical theory, referring to sublimation (symbolized by osiris) and creation (symbolized by orpheus) ; then the "passion" suffered by the subject (the creator) during his proper act is examined : death or absence of the ego, metamorphosis, transfiguration of the creator ; one chapter in devoted to psychosis and the root of sublimation. The vanishing, the desire of nothing, can be considered as the end (termination or aim) of the creation and of the creator. Finally occurs the study of the passion inflicted by the creator to the object (the original object, the modification or the metamorphosis of products the created object - the work of art) and of its consequences : the various kinds of relief (aufhebung) after the "murder" or the normal corrosion of the object - resurrection, fictitious incarnation, transfiguration and vanishing in the nothing or in the abstraction. The example were chosen as well in ancient times (the bible, plato, the myth of helen) as in nowadays (pierre jean jouve, abstract painters)
Zaugg, Brigitte. "Femmes et féminité dans l'oeuvre d'Ellen Glasgow." Dijon, 1998. http://www.theses.fr/1998DIJOL007.
Full textThis thesis is a re-reading of four novels by Ellen Glasgow, Virginia, Life and Gabriella, Barren Ground, and the sheltered life. It means to be faithful to the novelist's intentions and aims but not to analyse her fiction from a biographical perspective. My approach to the subject is a cultural one and is based on the novelist's avowed aim to write a social history of Virginia. The thesis is divided into two parts of unequal length which correspond to Glasgow’s twofold project, i. E. To denounce women's position in Virginian society from 1884 to 1924 (ch. 1 & 2) and to establish a system freeing women of bondage, based on their economic independence (ch. 3). Chapter 1 is devoted to the main principles on which the dominant ideology is based that defines woman both as an ideal and a biological body and maintains her in service and in a web of sentimental illusion. It also deals with Glasgow’s criticism of this ideology and studies its concrete and perverse effects: woman is kept in the domestic sphere and forbidden any access to knowledge; her very clothes are emblematic of her service, so is her inability to speak. Chapter 2 studies love, which in these novels invariably occurs at first sight. This choice of Glasgow’s enables her to denounce the influence of sentimental fiction and the far too great idealization that follows up. The chapter then examines the issue of marriage as necessity and illusion and focuses on the character of Eva Birdsong. Chapter 3 points out Glasgow’s claim for the equality of the sexes and her trust in woman's manifold abilities. It focuses on the heroines of life and Gabriella and Barren Ground who thanks to their will to power become successful business women yet retain a humanity Glasgow deems fundamental. It also shows how her way of thinking on the joint issues of economy and love became more radical as age wore on

Full textMaupassant doesn't believe in the harmonious cohesion of the whole. Therefore, in his tales, he tries to describe the explosion of each composed structure, and, first of all, the shattering of the individual identity into a multitude of autonomous fragments. In the tales, the dividing up of the human being applies to the external aspect (the body) as well as to the inner self (thought). Deprived of control over his organism by an obscure force that dominates him, the human being watches, powerless, as his corporal machine races out of control. He can no longer master his movements. Torn between his consciousness that remains clear and his acts that seem no longer to belong to him, the individual observes the mechanization and the reification of his body. The "human thing" is a simple puppet emptied of all its substance, or vulgar goods intended to be sold or bought on the market of a new economic slave system. As for the inner division of the individual, it expresses itself mainly in dual personalities. But the Horla, is not the only illustration of the double. Maupassant uses the unit of the couple to represent this unbearable dichotomy. Faced with the animal bestiality, confronted with feminine otherness, with his likeness to his child, his father or brother, in front of the foreign image reflected in the mirror, the individual, divided into two incompatible egos, questions his identity. The duality of the person leads to an irreversible deprivation of the ego. The only way out lies in death, whether it be exteriorized in a criminal act, interiorized by retreat into madness, actualized by a suicidal act, or represented by images of disappearance. The pessimist vision of the author concerning this fragmented being destined to be destroyed appears in a number of stories. It illustrates the singularity of a world pervaded by the fragments of an inner fantastic unique to Maupassant

Full text" negative " aspect, singular " negativity" in dernies vers containing 18 texts of which 12 are dated in 1872 is often refered. With the aide of lexical, syntactic, linguistic and psychoanalytic definitions indicating a negation process capable of surprising a potential stratum, a reading is intrrogated about the opening of text and its ending. The first vision is susceptible tobe swung by the subject whose aim is to transfom what is into what is not. The theme of water points out the strategy of subject who faces a fluid material to lose himself his proper unity (negation and vision). To this vision of things with uncertain outlines corresponds the moment when a strange comes to disturb the familiar universe: dialectic of outside and inside (negation and familiar). The frequency of space colored in "blue" aims for eroding a stability which will instal between subject and object (negation and space). If the negation process allows to open to a potential space, arrives a moment when this space change into another space in which the subject lose (second party). In "age d'or", the subject introduces another voice, which resists being integrated and propagates until it covers the voice of subject (negation and language). Hunger and thirst signify a situation in which the subject let to be treated by his desire, and reaches the end of text (negation and desire). The problem of body, present in poesies, but absent in derniers vers, will clear the relation of subject with his exterior world (negation and body). In derniers vers, where the subject occupies a uncertain position mais strategic, the writing is elaborated by the ambivalence, and a stranger, searched in beginning of poems, is found too strong that he forces the end of text
Le, Marc'hadour Rémi. "Identité et individuation dans l'oeuvre de Jorge Luis Borges." Rennes 2, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996REN20005.
Full textThe analysis of Jorge Luis Borges's imaginary framework permits to value some essential structures or the subject's thinking and writing. But these structures go beyond the individual ; they reveal symbolical or archetypical substratum that supports an original conception of man an world. Borges's literary adventure is first an individual identity quest, an attempt at self definition. The split personality appears in a dual writing process and in the specular play of the ego and the other. A deep aspiration to the coincidence of opposites, to the establishment of an authentic individuation springs forth from this tension. This quest also transcribes a general matter of identity through the characters of the narrative prose. Some Borges's protagonists suffer an obvious deficiency of individuation, others maintain conflictual but basic relations with the name, a symbol of identity
Laharpe, Nicole de. "Les stereotypes nationaux dans les tischreden de luther. Image de l'autre et image de soi." Strasbourg 2, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997STR20076.
Full textLuther's tischreden (table talk), an important medium of the reformer's concepts, have often been overlooked by critics. Yet the diversity of the themes he tackled gives us an overall view of his ideas and concerns during the latter part of his life which was characterized by his polemics against the turks, the jews and the pope. Based on the weimar edition, the present study establishes luther's perception of the germans and foreigners (italians, jews, turks) and endeavours to bring to the fore the extent to which this image was dependent on existing stereotypes or created new ones. If due to the cultural antagonism between germany and italy, one notices a symmetry concerning a number of stereotypes (the simplicity, naivety, love of truth of the germans as opposed to the cleverness, cunning and mendacity of the italians), and if the image of italy suffers from its identification with the papacy, one is not aware in luther of any particular glorification of germany; on the contrary the faults of the germans in general and of each german region in particular are denounced without any pity. The christian anti-judaism and the prejudices it conveys are taken up by luther, as by the majority of his contemporaries; however the tischreden, often filled with hostility, do not peddle the calumny contained in his last writings. Despite his visceral suspicion, luther does not remain insentive to the fate of the jewish people. The image of the turks is centred on the fear raised by the political and military events on the one hand and on the muslim religion on the other; the latter lutter refuses to view any differently than as a lie. The comparison between the qualities and defects of each group with those of the world in general reveals that luther's arguments are essentially religious. His intention is not to stigmatize the particular defects of each nation but to denounce everywhere the different forms of sin from which man cannot escape

Full textThis study analyses about a hundred British children’s novels and short stories published between 1945 and 1995 from the point of view of subversion. Thematically subversion makes it possible to take the child reader’s specificity into account, endeavouring to bring little peopleʺ’s viewpoint into the foreground thanks to devices such as miniaturization, animalization and inversion, making underdogs triumph over authority figures. When it concerns time and space subversion implies exploring otherness and leading the child towards independence through the crossing of thresholds and borders. Such themes are expanded in travel narratives and above all in the transgression of time and space provided by the numerous secondary worlds, which help the individual to reach unity beyond the multiplicity of other places. This experience of otherness is further developed in the subversion of sexual identity and categories, though sexual subversion in children’s books remains lukewarm or underground. By encouraging the questioning of such concepts as the masculine and the feminine, some recent books favour a better balance in the representation of both male and female characters. Subversion is particularly striking in textual and intertextual play and creativity: tradition is revised in a playful way thanks to the use of references the young reader can grasp because they resort to intertextuality in the broad sense of the term and by making the most of the potential plasticity and reversibility of language. Even didacticism, apparently a characteristic of children’s books, is subverted: education is renewed rather than suppressed and aims at teaching not the moralizing lessons of the past but the ability to put things into perspective and to apply critical distance to discourse, including the discourse of narration
Robin, Frédérique. "Stratégies cognitives dans la description des configurations spatiales." Paris 5, 1992. http://www.theses.fr/1992PA05H070.
Full textSeveral research have shown that speakers use dominant strategies to describe spatial networks. The first aim of the present study was to examine to what extent the structure of an object places constraints on the order in which its parts are entered into a description. The aim of the second part of the experiment was to evidence similarities between the strategies used to describe objects and those used to describe visual images of objects. Subjects (adults) were first involved ina perceptual condition, where they had to describe visually presented networks, and then in the imaginal condition (two weeks later). The results reveal that the structure of descriptions are similar for perceptual and imagined networks. In both conditions, increasing the complexity of networks resulted in increase latencies. Nevertheless, latencies differ as a function of individual differences in imagery abilities. The use of dominant strategies to describe spatial networks have only been evidenced in adult production. A second study was designed to explore the development of cognitive processes involved in the description of spatial networks by children aged 6 to 10. The findings evidence that the dominant strategies which characterize adult production do not develop in consistent way. The strategies used by children aged 8 to 10 to describe mental images are similar to those used to describe perceptual networks

Full textBetween 1830 and 1945, modernity climaxed with several concomitant phenomena. The death of god, the birth of democracy, the development of bourgeois capitalism, the advent of mass culture, the totalitarian systems. . . So many tensions that the individual was forced to cope with. Subjected to the atomizing double logic of philosophical and economic rationalization, the poet represented the ideal archetype of modern man. In this study, the author analyses from diachronic and synchronic angles how, among the "jeunes-france", the poets' disenchantment followed the world disenchantment, how the process intensified and took form with baudelaire and the very next generation, and last how social positioning organized itself in the light of the assessment of the situation and how heavy it weighed on the very nature of the poetic output. Confronting "surrealism" and "grand jeu", the study shows how 20 th century strategies for creativity are a continuation of 19 th century strategies with their resolutely libertarian attitude, and how the question of action and dreams finally imposes several conceptions of the individual, which was already obvious amond the "jeunes-france"

Full textIn common with all discourse, the literary text bears the traces of its own determinations, both psychical and socio-historical; it is as much the product of a society as it is of an individual psyche and the signifiers that constitute it can refer to both these sets of conditions of production. This study in literary anthropology takes six texts by pinter, the room, the dumb waiter, the birthday party, the caretaker, the homecoming and betrayal and seeks to throw light on their psychical and socio-historical conditions of production. An analytical approach, based primarily on the theoretical and clinical writings of freud and lacan, is used to "listen" to the discourse of the subject (in the lacanian sense) of these texts. Particularly noticeable is a preoccupation with the theme of identity both at the psychical and sociological levels of interpretation. New perspectives on the oedipal components of the unconscious fantasies present in pinter's works are added to interpretations already put forward by critics such as gabbard, gordon and esslin. Principally, however, this study draws attention to the preponderance of representations that hark back to earlier stages of psychical development, especially the symbiotic relationship with the mother. Another discrouse - no less unconscious - is also to be heard in some of these plays. It has to do with pinter's jewish background that has enabled him to instill his dramatic writings with metaphors that express not only his own sense of guilt about the betrayal of assimilation but also the racial tensions that arose in britain with the arrival of coloured british citizens from the former colonies who were confronted, as jewish immigrants had been, with the paradoxes of integration. The desire for perfect integration into society on the one hand, the hallucinatory desire for "fusion" with the mother on the other : this is one of the points of contact made between the psychical and the sociological levels of interpretation. This search for coherence in the subject's unconscious discourse is based on detailed analysis of the dialogues and stage directions of the plays making up the corpus. Other plays by pinter, as well as some poems, unpublished texts and the manuscripts of his plays are also examined. The study also draws on the recent biography by michael billington

Full textAbstractIn this study I propose to give a record on the special feature of Italian literary works concerning the subject of migration.My corpus includes the essential of the writings (eight autobiographical stories and four novels) published in Italy between 1990 (year that marks in Italy the growing of this new literary genre) and 2015.Authors taken into consideration are mostly Italians with an immigrant background, they are first-generation or second-generation immigrants.It’s a question of six men and six women. One of the issues of my comparative study is to try to determine the special features of an immigrant female writing study.For the first part of my work I trace the history of the migratory phenomenon during the last century analyzing the transformation of Italy from an emigration land into an immigration land.I also analyze the evolution of the lexicon gone with this transformation from 80’s.The second part is characterized by an interpretation of the works composing the corpus, concentrating my attention on the immigrant’s representation, on the way every writer reports his life conditions, on the personal experience, on his relationship often ambivalent with natives.I analyze the variety on the ways of representation (and self-representation) of the immigrant, according to the sexual identity, to the geographical, cultural and social origin of the writer, but also the die-hard singularity of his process.The last part is concerned with the analysis of the critical reception of this production in Italy.Key-words: migrant, migration, literature, stereotype, discrimination, racism
Herbert, Catherine Deming. "Féminisme et féminité dans l'œuvre de Jules Laforgue." Montpellier 3, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009MON30009.
Full textIn the final decades of the nineteenth century, as Romanticism waned and was replaced by various movements such as Parnassianism, Decadence, and Symbolism, a poet emerged who was to have an influence on literature in France and abroad that far exceeds his short life. Before his death in 1887 at the age of 27, Jules Laforgue spent most of his writing career in Berlin, where he met his future wife, the Englishwoman Leah Lee, and where he wrote the majority of his poetry and prose. These same years also marked an evolution of the portrayal of women in literature, the misogyny of poets such as Baudelaire gradually being replaced by an optimistic willingness to empower women by giving them a voice and allowing them some control over their destiny. Jules Laforgue played an important role in this literary development, and his work reflects the sexist prejudices of his time, which he left behind in order to embrace a vision of women as the companion and equal of men, whether in a fraternal or romantic sense. Laforgue, sensitive to artistic and literary tendencies, took on popular subjects of his day – Salomé, Ophelia, the femme fatale, the female vampire, the Eternal Feminine – and put his own stamp on them through a mixture of parody, irony, anachronism, and feminist ideas. The silent, powerless women of the earlier poems discover, especially in the Moral Tales and the Last Verse, a voice and a determination which can lead to their death (Salomé) or the fulfillment brought by free will and true love (Andromeda). While Laforgue was never an outspoken feminist, he made a major contribution to the literary evolution of women in the years leading up to the twentieth century
Beaumard-Montout, Marie-Annick. "L'écriture militante dans les nouvelles d'Olive Senior." Angers, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002ANGE0048.
Full textBorn in 1941, Olive Senior, a Jamaican writer, became famous in 1987 when she received the Commonwealth Writers' Prize for her first collection of short stories Summer Lightning and Other Stories published in 1987. Two other collections were to follow : Arrival of the Snake-Woman and Other Stories (1989) and Discerner of Hearts and Other Stories (1995). In each of the three collections she questions the history of Jamaica in relation to the influence of colonialism on the life of the people. She equally questions it as to its responsibility in embracing the white Western values, especially the American ones, only too readily. She uses the playful spirit inherent in the reading activity to design a didactic game in which she invites the Jamaican reader to ponder over his/her difficulties to find a different original voice. She also suggests that changing some of his/her cultural habits might prove helpful. To do so she equips him/her with a variety of ways of liberating his/her subjectivity in which she resorts to the carnaval tradition

Full textThis essay intends to show that the identity in the novels of Edmundo Paz Soldán, whether collective or individual, is a process in constant motion and that never ends to be realized. The aesthetics of his work shows the ambivalence of this concept in a world that is increasingly unstable, fluctuating and hybrid. This aesthetic can be criticized because it provides no certainty, but allows the possibility of the medium, the in-between, or simply the alternative of "doubt". The work of Paz Soldán marks in Bolivian and Latin American literature a new path: he focuses more on human being, its existence and importance of the Other in the definition of identity without abandoning historical realism or the social question. The ontological approach to his work addresses problems of modern man facing the crisis of representation of the late twentieth century and early twenty-first and that challenges the authority represented by the figures of the State and the Father, the former bosses of collective and individual identity. While identity is ofen approached from two, it is not limited to two entities but several. A plural identity is perhaps the only perspective we can adopt towards to idea of a globalized world
Tanquerel, Sylvain. "L'invention du coeur dans les Cahiers de Rodez d'Antonin Artaud." Paris 4, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2005PA040190.
Full textThis approach seeks to describe artaud's cahiers de rodez as a series of " experiences based on love and poetry " and to clarify a certain " labor " of the feminine. Prefigured in the writings of 1937, then progressively replayed with the virginal maternity of mary in the christianity of the first phase of artaud's asylum years, the " filles de cŒur " become, by the summer of 1945, the main motif of the cahiers. Through these successive metamorphoses, we witness the emergence of a " heart " inextricably linked to a visionary practice, itself based on an imagination that embodies. Rather than engaging in clinical categorization, our reading instead attempts to understand these feminine figures as they present themselves in the cahiers, in the same phenomenal rhythm as their appearance, and to explore thereby a peculiar production of reality. The enigmatic love of the " filles de cŒur ", these creatures who create their creator, allows us, finally, to come up against the mystery of the " body " announced in artaud's late writings

Full textThe thesis we present propose a reflection about masculine condition in French literature between the two World Wars. In a France which fights to recover from the First World War while foreseeing more and more surely the approach of the Second one, the man holds a central place, for his manhood intends him to the higher sacrifice. This is the man of these restless times that we have wished to understand better in this work ; we have tried to demonstrate the huge awkwardness implied by the fact of being a man. Along the variations of this major period that goes from 1919 until 1939, the French man feels lost : right after the First World War, forever linked to nightmarish or glorious memories, the soldier become a civilian again, become a man again, is face to a new society in which past hegemony will be from now taken on by the one whose he had always thought she was his inferior : the woman. Through the study of several French novels from 1919 until 1939, we make the analysis of this relentless evolution of masculine condition. Heroes of hackneyed masculinity or antiheroes in a social, psychical or emotional suffering, crude or uncommon instances of masculine identity, the characters of the novels which make up our corpus, whether they show the front trials, the readjustment to civil life ones, or ones generated by the new definition of relationships between both sexes, show, everyone in a different way, the deep intricacy of masculine condition between the two World Wars, between power and overwhelm
Ginfray, Denise. "Identité et création : le masculin et le féminin dans l'oeuvre de Virginia Woolf." Bordeaux 3, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996BOR30002.
Full textThis study aims to show how Virginia Woolf's work, confronted to the modernist crisis, is structured around a dialectics between identity – and more precisely gender identity – and artistic creation. The first part of the analysis focuses on the subversion of cultural codes and sexual paradigma ; on the split in the characters' consciousness, on the failure of verbal and emotional communication. The stress is also laid on sexual difference at work in the creative process. The second part, exclusively devoted to the text as artefact, brings to light Virginia Woolf's disruption of conventional modes of representation – a means to put into question an ideological and normative discourse based on the repression of otherness. The exploration of the narrative and discursive strategies helps to clarify the nature of Virginia Woolf's aesthetics founded on the interrelationship between literary works, linear and causal discontinuity, the rejection of bourgeois conformity, as well as on the introduction of heterogeneity and ambiguity. Finally, this study tries to draw a portrait of the woolfian artist, to bring out the desire-as-lack which creation proceeds from, and to determine the finality of any work of art at large, of writing in particular : a perpetual quest for identity and wholeness, an insatiable yearning for the other

Full textIt is worth nothing that without a number of definitions and a view theoretical analysis, this work would not be complete. French literature, be it ot past centuries orientalists or XX th century writers essentially from the Maghreb, displays a number of general views and images about the arab world as awhole. This paper is concerned firstly and foremostly with such views that usually prevail in literary texts and which draw a particular picture of the arab muslim society from the inside and for the outside. As can be seen through the texts, i have studied, the prevalent vision about the easem part of the arab world is somewhat ambiguous. It has a legendary figure, and converys long-held stereotyped images that can or rather shu'd be viewed as mythical. My approach differs from that of both orientalists and Maghreb writers when the subject affects the arabs in their culture, religion or sense of being. Also, when the image is likely to arouse general discomfort. The analysis of Maghreb writers were note able to create a coherent and real vision of their society. Theres were dominated by ideological and myth very often borrowed from their western culture. More interstingly, this doctorat helps readers conceive of mythical questions in this particulor area which have so far been grotesquely caricatured

Full textA detailed analysis of the German literature, starting with the year 1960, when many African states gained independence, that includes heterogeneous texts in content and form, mixing fiction and reality, reflects a strong accusation of certain German authors against the marginalization of Africa. This subversive discourse extends beyond the limitations of a bilateral dialogue (Africa/ Germany) by taking the form of a "trialogue" (Germany/ Africa/ France). The texts, originating from the postcolonial discourse, evidently represent a clear offence to the verbal violence in colonial literature. With the aim to strengthen an independent African German Studies, this study represents as well a new opening for classical German Studies

As regards writing, morrison constantly associates to that of identity which is central, the following themes: sexuality, desalienation, the naming of characters and places, race mixing and negritude

Full textThis study in the field of literary imagology investigates the representations of the Portuguese both in French and Portuguese narratives, from 1950 to 2000. By the end of the 70s, Portuguese have become the most important foreign community in France. We analyze the speeches and the images conveyed by human and social sciences, but also by the Portuguese propaganda agencies and various guides intended for foreigners. Thus, we try to define the main aspects of the Portuguese imaginary identity and to shed light on the myths that are related to it. It appears that some images issued by Salazar and his ideologues have survived until today. They have been conveyed by writers who were admirers of the dictator and who developed certain topics, often related to the history of Portugal. But, after the “Revolution of the carnations”, the literary figures of the Portuguese become less conventional. Fiction concentrates on families and young people stemming from the immigration, who are often presented as dominated or eccentric figures. A few writers have preferred to write about their wanderings in Lisbon, daydreaming without ever meeting “real” Portuguese. In Portugal, the censorship silenced the authors who resisted the dictatorship. In order to be published, works had to harp on the ideology of the Portuguese adventurer or to evoke the failure of emigration (such an image was supposed to prevent Portuguese from leaving their country). With the advent of democracy, political exile and emigration, two topics that were previously held in contempt, became important Portuguese literary themes. The authors have tended to question their identity as well as the meaning of the return to their native country. Ultimately, it appears that the two literatures intersected very rarely, as the low number of translations would show

Full textThis study about the quest for identity in Peter Handke's narrative works makes use of the new prospects suggested by the psycho-sociologists' discoveries. The first part will be devoted to an archeological research into the social and human factors that have determined the protagonists' situations in the first novels and narratives, which situations are characterized by strangeness, wandering, a fragmented outlook and the loss of speech. Then it will attempt to show that the strategy adopted by the lonely man to overcome the radical lack of communication among individuals and to find the mirror which will reflect a true living image of himself is similar to the player's behavior and his ambiguous position between belonging to and staying apart from the group. From this study there emerges the idea that identity, in the texts written by Peter Handke from Die hornissen (the hornets) to Die wiederholung (repetition), is a deliberate and permanent fight. It can exist only within the limits of a freely made choice to belong and it widens its scope to the dimensions of the poetic conquest of the forms of the world and of ideal communication with men

Full textPierre Jean Jouve devotes his art to a quest of absolute. The poet doesn’t try to elude all the sacrifices that this devotion claims to him. The progression of Pierre Jean Jouve’s arts work, throughout the poet’s existence, takes all the aspects of an initiation which moves up consistently searching for the sanctity of art, beyond any breaking claimed. Finally, the artist’s work lightens itself in an irresistible rise to a state of transcendence that seems to have sublimated the thick substance by which it was engendered. The poet’s mission is part of a search for origins, Pierre Jean Jouve aware of the contribution of different psychoanalytic theories of the early twentieth century, fumbles the unconscious of the arts work through complex and enigmatic fiction characters. They explore the underworld of desire, they confront the most obscure dreams to rise, at a final stage, to a sublimated existence. After the initiation, the work fed with archetypal images turns in a pure poetic matter. The union accomplished with the anima — the essentially feminine entity, the mother of ages — determines the metamorphosis of dark dream into a pure daydreaming which joins the heavenly heights. The poet who writes for the emptiness of heavens is still conscious that this sacred dimension is only accessible by the body which gives rhythm to every breath, to every desire. God is this gold of absence foreboded in the heart of the world, presence-absence which disappears right after being perceived, allegory of the absolute poetic language which the poet alchemist knows imperceptible, and however, for whom he sets to work again ceaselessly
Charbonnier, Gil. "Les écritures de la sublimation dans l’œuvre de Valéry Larbaud." Paris 4, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2006PA040229.
Full textThe objective of my study is to demonstrate that sublimation is the principal aesthetic mechanism in the work of Valery Larbaud. In the first part of my work I seek to define a notion that intersects several fields of knowledge : theology, philosophy, aesthetics and psychoanalysis. This initial research enables me to make sublimation a concept with which to analyze literary texts. I will then seek to identify the sublimation characteristic of Larbaud. It emanates from a modern desire to describe, in the interior of the work, the creative act on the basis of the erotic. It results from a connection to the mother that determines the literary vocation. It can be explained also by the Catholicism of the author. These considerations give rise to new elegiac writings through which the notion of the sublime evolves in the first half of the 20th century in France
Perez, José. "Le symbolisme de José Antonio Ramos Sucre." Paris 8, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996PA081075.
Full textJose antonio ramos sucre's symbolism is more the traditional symbolism that expresses philosophical ideas and those of the sublime. The major symbols one finds in his poems in prose are, to our mind, escape and solitude, themes through wich other figures of his thematique are explored. Each symbolic figure is composed of an element of tension and an element of laxity where the spiritual expectation of the poet resides. This thirst for the infinite gives a teleology to the work, a goal to attain. Convinced of the redemption power of the written work, ramos sucre makes his poetry a long meditation on the ideal being, discoursing in poetic terms particularly on the aspect of the impossible, thus the dreadful or the chimeric confering on the imagination the task of reconstituating its intrinsic quality. If one desires to attain the perfect being, the means employed to this end must also be, in as much as it is possible, perfect. It is for this reason that ramos sucre's poetry yields to the notion of eloquence, a concept the poet preconizes. For ramos sucre a literary work must repond to a logic and a proportion. His thematique imposes both an esthetic and an ethic. The esthetique domain founded on eloquence joints with that of the ethic, wich is centered on the idea of salvation. There is no salvation without eloquence, the poet would have said

The birth of this kind of character in the middle of the xixth century had a considerable impact on the evolution of the aesthetics of the works of fiction
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

Full textIn the analysis of feminine passions, this study has been most specifically concerned with psychological innovation in Balzac’s works. The study has covered a panoply of themes related to the oscillation of woman between ephemeral love and ever endless melancholy. This continuous struggle between the search for the absolute, the acquisition of fleeing joy that can hardly be seized gives an account of the ills of feminine destiny, the commensurable suffering of women who are trapped within the harsh laws of a patriarchal society. The purpose of this study has therefore been to analyze the exquisite sensitivity, the quality of affection, the innocence and purity of feelings and the coldness as well the tender joy, at times extreme of infantile euphoric and melancholic love or dark melancholic, the profound confusion, the pains of jealousy, the devouring passion, the atrocious suffering and pain, the frailty and the silence, the resistance and the rebellion of a multitude of young girls and women of the human condition through the omniscient eye of Balzac who analyzes feminine emotions. The study has revisited some aspects of the feminine conditions in Balzac’s fictional world, as well certain aspects of feminine psychology. The explosive and the blooming or the distress and frustration of all these feminine lives are translated into emotions more or less related to pleasure and displeasure
