Full textConversations with René Girard proposes understanding of the work of Girard in all its complexity. The thesis focuses on analyzing the theory of mimetic desire, the relationship between violence and the sacred, and the need for a scapegoat. Three interwoven, united themes surround all the work of Girard, explained for the first time in the Violence and the Sacred essay considered as one of the pillars of Girardian thought. According to Girard, violence intrinsic to humanity, is the desire to control the violence that establishes the passage of the state of nature to the state of culture. The channeling of violence is vital to the existence of societies - archaic and modern. Girard shows us that the way to control violence is possible only by the institution of the sacred, that is through the atoning sacrifice of the victim. For the author, the desire is always mimetic desire : what is desired by the other subject, which raises the rivalry and consequently the violence that needs to be contained
Conversações com René Girard propõe o entendimento da obra de Girard em toda sua complexidade. A tese concentra a análise sobre a teoria do desejo mimético, a relação da violência com o sagrado e a necessidade do bode expiatório. Três temas entrelaçados, uníssonos que circundam toda a obra de Girard, explicitados pela primeira vez em A violência e o Sagrado, ensaio considerado como um dos pilares do pensamento girardiano. Para Girard, a violência é intrínseca à humanidade, é o controle do desejo de violência que estabelece a passagem do estado de natureza para o estado de cultura. A canalização da violência é vital para a existência das sociedades arcaicas e modernas. Girard nos mostra que a forma de controle da violência só é possível pela instituição do sagrado, que o faz por meio dos sacrifícios da vítima expiatória. Para o autor, o desejo é sempre mimético, desejamos aquilo que é desejado por outro sujeito, o que suscita a rivalidade e, consequentemente, a violência que precisa ser contida

Full textWhile Julian Green's novels had been the object of psychoanalytical interpretation, his writing contains an undecided dimension which resists to these approaches called extra-textual. Although its apparent contour is Freudian, the greenian desire can be compared with the girardian configuration of mimetic desire. Girard's anthropological and literary conception can interpret effectively Green's novels meanwhile this approach intra-textual serves a way to penetrate the core of Green's fictional world. We have tried to investigate the illusion of desire through the Green's characters in light of the Girard's theory and to illustrate the ambiguous relationship between the desiring subject and his mediators. Finally, by implying Girard's theory to study the question of homosexuality, we can realize the sex is rather an illusory and fragile construction, imposed by the society. The girardian lecture, therefore, allows us to reveal the mechanism of the actantial development in Green's fictional world by crossing the ideological mythologies which serve as the composing principle. The relevance of the girardian lecture also resides in our two authors' similar ideal of the function of the fictional writing, demystificator for the theorist, transcendental for the novelist. Ne's terrible loneliness, generates the belief, translates this need to believe in thé other, this other desired, always unknown and in principle unknowable

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 textPeople are subjected to their mimetic desire and as long as they don't experience this dependance, they keep being chained to others who they borrow their desire from. René Girard's anthropology helps us to understand how mimetic desire, rivalry and violence are merged and points out the illusions concerning individual's autonomy. Religion and Politics are directly concerned by the increase of violence and its resorption through a scapegoat held as responsible. But as long as peace is brought back by a unanimous violence directed against a scapegoat, people can't be free. And yet, according to René Girard, the mimetic mechanism has been revealed by Christianity. Christian revelation not only allows us to understand the origin of violence but also gives keys to get rid of it thanks to the conversion and the imitation of Christ. The issue of the rising of the individual gets all the more essential as René Girard notices a growing violence in the world we live in

O tema desta pesquisa é a noção de cristianismo no diálogo entre René Girard e Gianni Vattimo. Para tanto, argumenta-se que a ideia central que vincula os dois autores é a compreensão de cristianismo como kénosis (enfraquecimento). Aborda-se essa noção levando em conta a teoria girardiana do sagrado natural. A ideia de sagrado é estruturante, pois, a partir dele, sabe-se que o religioso funda-se na violência humana. O homem é governado por um desejo de apropriação mimética, o que conduz a rivalidades. A violência quando se exasperava nas sociedades primitivas gerava conflitos de tal ordem que se fazia necessário o sacrifício para conter a crise que ameaçava extirpar todo grupo. Do sacrifício expiatório nascia o sagrado que se sustentava nas formas de ritos, interditos e rememoração do sacrifício. O cristianismo, interpretado por Girard e Vattimo, revela e denuncia esse mecanismo fazedor de vítimas, indicando que a vítima é inocente. Portanto, para falar de kénosis e secularização, Vattimo recorre a essa ideia de perda dos elementos do sagrado. Com a dissolução do sagrado, o cristianismo aparece em sua forma enfraquecida (kénosis), sendo a caritas um modo de rejeitar a violência humana.
The theme of this dissertation is the notion of Christianity in the intersection of ideas between René Girard and Gianni Vattimo, focusing on the central idea connecting both authors, which is Christianity as kénosis (weakening). This notion is approached considering Girard's theory about the natural sacred. The idea of sacred is keypoint, because it is the way by which the religious experience is founded on the human violence. Men are guided by a desire for mimetic appropriation, which leads to rivalries. When violence became intense among the primitive societies, it triggered so much disturbance that sacrifice was required to keep the crisis under control in order to avoid the extinction of the whole group. The sacred was born from the expiatory sacrifice, expressing the rites, the interdicts and the remembrance of the sacrifice. Christianity, according to Girard's and Vattimo's perspective, reveals and condemns this process that breeds victims, pointing out that the victim is innocent. Therefore, in order to discuss kénosis and secularization, Vattimo uses this idea of a dicrease in the elements of sacred. With the sacred in dissolution, Christianity assumes its weakened form (kénosis), and caritas becomes a way of rejecting the human violence.

Full textEl núcleo de estudio de esta tesis es el pensamiento de René Girard, situado a lo largo de la segunda mitad del siglo XX: desde Mensonge romantique et vérité romanesque (1961) a Achever Clausewitz (2007). Este pensamiento se va definiendo, a lo largo de la tesis, en dos direcciones: el pensamiento sobre Girard y el pensamiento a partir de Girard. La primera dirección ordena el pensamiento de este autor en tres círculos, ordenados según un criterio cronológico y ––a la vez–– un criterio temático. El primer círculo es el del deseo mimético, que define una historia del deseo que va desde la mediación externa, de la sociedad jerárquica, a la mediación interna, de la sociedad igualitaria. El segundo círculo es el del sacrificio, que explica el origen y la pervivencia del grupo social. El sacrificio permite liberar el grupo de la violencia destructora, a cambio de la muerte de una víctima declarada culpable. El sacrificio pasa del mundo arcaico, mítico, al mundo cristiano, que proclama la inocencia de la víctima y, por lo tanto, la inanidad del sacrificio. El tercer círculo es el de la guerra, de la violencia llevada al conflicto de pueblos, hasta llegar a la conflagración más absoluta y radical, la que significa el final de la historia de los hombres. La segunda dirección propone una lectura de estos tres círculos desde la reciprocidad como categoría, de manera que la reciprocidad es la estructura del deseo mimético (primer círculo), el cristianismo define una nueva forma de reciprocidad, la reciprocidad positiva (segundo círculo) y esta nueva forma de reciprocidad es conclusiva, ya que significa la victoria final sobre la violencia (tercer círculo). Así pues, se cruzan por un lado la historia de los hombres, que tiende a la destrucción, y por otro lado el cristianismo, que tiende a la construcción. Esto es a lo que se llama cruce apocalíptico, que es el momento de la historia donde estamos.
This thesis is focused on René Girard’s thought, located along the second half of the 20th century: from Mensonge romantique et vérité romanesque (1961) to Achever Clausewitz (2007). This thought has been defined, throughout the thesis, in two directions: the thought about Girard and the thought from Girard. The first direction arranges this author’s thought in three circles, ordered according to chronologicals judgements, and – simultaneously – thematical judgements. The first circle is the one about mimetic desire, which defines a story about desire that goes from external mediation, of hierarchic society, to internal mediation, of equal society. The second circle is the one about sacrifice, which explains the origin and social group’s survival. Sacrifice allows the group to be released from destructive violence, in exchange of a victim found guilty. The sacrifice goes from the archaic mythical world to the Christian world, which announces the innocence of the victim and thus, the inanity of sacrifice. The third circle is the one about war, about violence among peoples, getting to the most radical and drastic confrontation, the one which means the end of mankind’s history. The second direction proposes to read the three circles from reciprocity as a category, so that the reciprocity is the stucture of mimetic desire (first circle); Christianity defines a new form of reciprocity, the positive reciprocity (second circle); this new form of reciprocity is conclusive, because it means the final victory over violence (third circle). Therefore, two lines intersect: mankind’s history, which tends to destruction, and Christianity, which tends to construction. This is what is called apocalyptic crossing, history moment we are living in.
Paulmier, Thierry. "Les fondements émotionnels du politique : Essai de théorie politique post-girardienne." Thesis, Paris Est, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PESC0071.
Full textThis thesis suggests a double « overtaking » of the mimetic theory developed by René Girard. The first one consists of confronting mimetic theory with the help of the psychology of admiration and envy in order to show how mimetic behaviours proceed mainly from these two emotions. Consequently, mimetism cannot be considered as a primary cause of human behaviour but as a secondary cause, subject to admiration or envy. The second one is more radical. It consists of suggesting a theory of human behaviour more comprehensive than the mimetic theory based not only on admiration and envy but also on fear and filial piety. Based on this anthropology, it is possible to develop an emotional theory of politics, distinguishing four types of hierarchical relationships : the tyrannic power based on fear, governing by threat and punishment and aiming to ensure security to all ; the fascinating power based on envy, governing by seduction and rewards and aiming to ensure priviledges to all ; the virtuous authority based on admiration, governing by example and virtue and aiming to ensure excellence to all ; the pious authority, governing by responsability and self-giving and aiming to ensure communion to all
