Full textThis thesis aims to address the emergence and the development in French literature of a whole new genre, from the beginning of the 19th until the end of the 20th century: the contemporaneous Roman-themed novel. Dealing not with the stability of the Ancient City, its ruins and its monuments, but with the shifting urban and human landscape of the time, it disrupts the tradition of the Grand Tour, which was implicitly based on the notion that no fiction could be invented in the eternal present of Rome, since the perception one could have there was so deeply rooted in the past. By using the novel, writers were simultaneously confronted to the modernity of the medium and to the urban and political modernisation of the city, while the sign of Rome – the myth of the Eternal City – was always present in their mind. Novels set in contemporaneous Rome provided their authors with the possibility to engage with the most crucial issues inherent to the aesthetics and ethics of fiction: the role of belief in modern cultures – in terms of religion and its counterpart, literary fiction; the role of the past in the construction of modernity; the importance of the present in the experience of the past; the meaning of the Ancients at the time of the Moderns. Analysing the forms of the French contemporaneous Roman-themed novel signifies even more than engaging with the portrait of a city: it is a study in the relevance of Western paradigms
Baratin-Lorenzi, Marianne. "Les romans de george sand 1832/1842 : roman et dynamique narrative." Paris 4, 1998. http://www.theses.fr/1998PA040029.
Full textThis work intends to show the argumentative value of george sand's novels. It is based on the vehemence of the narrative voice which supposes its argumentative vocation. It is also based on the fact that the ideologists of romanticism recognise an ideology of george sand, without relation to the naive and devaluing image generated by our author's novels. Our study concerns the period 1832-1842, when the author was training to write, according to her own testimony. In front of the failure of an analysis based on the narrative dynamics which would define the novel as an apologue, we tried to regard george sand's novels as parables. The parable supposes the transposition of a rule in the fictitious universe of the novel. Our search supposed a preliminary work, covered in the first chapters : identification of george sand's thought, independent of the various influences that were lent to her; analyze - starting from the theoretical works of the author and the classical poetics - of the criteria likely to account for the novel, apart from the only reference to narrative dynamics. We then started the analysis of the novels of 1832 to 1842, namely indiana, valentine, le secretaire intime, andre, leone leoni, simon, mauprat, le compagnon du tour de france, horace. The analysis of george sand's idealism allowed us to specific the place of reality in her works, always absent and existing only in the idealizing mirror which the novel proposes. A simplified reality is thus proposed, whose fantastic dimension makes it possible to indicate at the same time the dissatisfaction of the character and the possibility he has to progress. This progression appears in the descriptions, the iterative narrations, the dialogued scenes and the pictures which mark out george sand's novels. We thus showed a dynamics, distinct from narratives dynamic, which follows the vehement breath of the narrative voice and which is proposed as the initiative quest of the romantic man: permanent search for an obvious and remote truth which it must carry out in the society

Full textAt the end of the nineteenth century, with the development of social sciences, the notion of "signs" came to the fore. Literature took hold of this notion which cast suspicion on the world. The signs started then to play a role of prime importance in fiction in the novel, telling a story took second place to reflection on signs or the musing they aroused. We study here this phenomenon, initiated at the beginning of the twentieth century (with ramuz and proust) and follow its evolution in the thirties. The interesgiven to signs was then integrated into the systems of thought and the understanding of the world (surrealism, psychoanalytical, commited or philosophical novels). When, in the filties, the sign benefited greatly from the interest paid to it, paradoxically, the fantasy based on signs evolved in opposition to the certainties which were establishing themselves. The suspicion that signs cast on the world began to fall back on them. The representation of perception which can be found in gracq's and simon's novels revealed the games of questioning reality, the confusion that is born from doubt and desire which distort any understanding of what is real. The representation of interpreation showed that, far from throwing light on the world, signs made it more enigmatic. The narrative structures. Themes and fiction-lines organised around signs prevented any reliable grasp of meaning. In a form which is not without link with the baroque aesthetics, sometimes verging on the absurd, without being reduced to it, the fanasy of signs expresses the
Hamri, Rachid El. "Étude stylistique des quatre romans de Francis Scott Fitzgerald." Paris 10, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA100162.
Full textThe aim of this research is to present a stylistic study of Francis Scott Fitzgerald’s four novels. The first part attempts to demonstrate - in various ways - how language, point of view and pragmatics illustrate the social and cultural aspects of American life during the nineteen twenties and thirties. The most striking part of this study is the rhetoric function of language, through which the author examines his own consciousness. Thus, the dialectic that oppose s poetics and irony, internal and external point of view, is Fitzgerald’s way of expressing the gap that obtains between reality and fiction. Such themes, based mainly on the confrontation of the nostalgic pas with the dreary present, are beautifully and fully expressed in the Great Gatsby. The second part deals with "structure". Here, the main focus lays on the function and treatment of time, considered as a n instrument to give shape to the narrative. The plot allows the reader to concentrate on the psychology of the characters. The last chapter, coherence, shows the way Fitzgerald creates his world, with his art, expressed both in small and larger units

Full textThe end of the xixth century saw, in france, a spectacular expansion of the novel/the thesis presented here studies the picture that these novels give of the child, previously neglected in fiction, especially when it was written for adult readers, and defines new patterns of characterization involving a certain number of choices and narrative techniques. These novels embody many stereotypes which express particular social situations but also aim at touching the reader's heart. The period puts a new emphasis on the body, with its activity, its pains, its pleasures. The mental life of the child, too, becomes worthy of interest : inspired by the social sciences, novelists hint at the existence of the unconscious, the child gains in depth and mystery. The social background also helps to define the child character by setting around him limits which he may observe or transgress ; his life is presented as material or moral progress towards maturity. As he is subjected to influences that contribute to his education, the child in novels is confronted with a series of initiation scenes which enable him to discover life and to win his own place in society. A great difference appears among the various types of novel : whereas works for the youthful public and popular stories present a child undergoing little change and easily fitting into society, more demanding novels use the child figure to question established values. The decline, during the period 1876-1890, of a type of hero endowed with every virtue, heralds a psychological and aesthetic crisis which can be seen in contemporary literature and makes a transition to the xxth century novel, where the adolescent figure becomes a vehicle for calling the world into question

Full textThe medieval space is intrinsically fragmented and heterogeneous, and it is fictionally represented as such in the Continuations of the Conte du Graal. Those narratives make use of the continuity and the discontinuity of the fictional universe in order to shape the connection of the hero with the Other and the Elsewhere. In a world where the Grail is but a pretext to explore otherness and the unknown, the notions of continuity and discontinuity, which are malleable but endowed with a coherent shape and meaning, testify to the existence of a triple bond – a spatial, physical and fictional one. The chasms, ellipses and gaps in space that run throughout the places show how the hero must confront otherness – that otherness being at times political, fantastic or sacred. The relation of the hero to the world is also organized according to the representation of his sensory perception, his gestures, movements and acts – his body organizes the space around him. The entanglement of those spatial and physical elements map out configurations which we will call fictional loci. Those places are determined by the relation of continuity that the Continuations have established with their hypotexts, of which they prolong both the fictional matter and outline. Displaying a “creative memory”, the Continuations circumvent the literary constraints imposed by their genre. It is from a ceaseless dialectics between intertextual continuity and discontinuity that the narratives and the writing as a continuator emerge. The scrutiny of space, body and novel writing thus enables to grasp the logic of the continuous and discontinuous, and the way it organizes the narratives in the Continuations – novels that are oblivious to the passing of time and whose dynamics are essentially spatial

Full textPresenting his work as an antidote against the legendary and heroic adventures that spoil youth, jean-pierre camus brings into fashion the devout novel, whilst being one of the initiaters of the realist novel. Elise, or the guilty innocence, seems to be a perfect prototype of this new genre, for the structure of the story as for the baroque language or the morality lessons that enamel the text. By welding the human heart, the author offers an excellent study of the morals of his time, using as background french provinces or different countries in europe. Initiatory and didactic, often tragic, these novels denounce vice, hunt out self-pride in order to incitate to conversion and create a religious vocation to the directives of the trente council. The new items he exploits, permit everyone to identify oneself with the characters of these devout stories full of verve and imagination while leading the charmed reader to a salutary "catharsis"

Full textThrough the stylistic analysis of characters' speech in Albert Cohen's novels, this work investigates the way the reader constructs them. The first part places this scheme among Cohen studies, links it to a reflection about Novel reading, makes an analytical survey of reported speeches, and sets out the problematic of Stylistics related to Novel speeches. The following parts draw the four main groups which Cohen's polyphony organizes. The cohesive chorus develops a stereotyped, phatic and ideological speech, from the petits bourgeois to the oral-popular one. The heroines' narcissist speech differs because of its stream of consciousness and erotic aspects. The Valeureux group is beyond this antinomy, by a shared, anachronistic and utopian speech, both collective and lonesome. Lastly, Solal shows an anomalous, poetical, satirical idiolect
Blanchemain, Laure. "L'imagination féminine dans les romans de Frances Burney." Toulouse 2, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003TOU20059.
Full textIn Frances Burney's novels, the limits between the outer world and the characters' imagination tend to be blurred. This confusion lends the text a dreamlike quality and seems to point out the potential danger that an overactive imagination can represent. Nevertheless, the female imagination also enables women to ignore more freely the rules imposed by society. It is linked now with the female body, now with reason, and while the traditional hierarchies are apparently reasserted, they are undermined at the same time. The role granted to imagination in the arts is also ambivalent, hovering between mere imitation and real creation. There are no clear-cut oppositions and the novels are far from univocal. Taking into account the theories of the eighteenth-century philosophers proves necessary, since it provides some essential clues, helping the Burney reader to understand her complex works more thoroughly

Full textThis work is connected with studies in cultural representation as they have been conducted and then theorized by several comparatists, most of them french. The french novels picturing the third world are part of a specific cultural context : the wave of decolonization that started after 1945 did cause a change in the structures through which the western world used to perceive the under-developed countries. In the first part of our study, we describe, in the scientific field as well as at its borders, the different series of logical patterns of statements connected with that historical mutation. Those patterns are at that time supposed to circumscribe the various changes and the future of those countries. In the second and third parts, we try to describe the various links between the identified ideological complexes and the narratives. As a result, we have drawn a global picture of the french perception of the third world and also of the narrative representations connected with them. The image of the third world in the french consciousness, with its stereotypes and also its narrative specifications, is therefore more accurately circumscribed
Jasser, Ghaïss. "Les personnages de femmes dans le roman francais entre les deux guerres." Paris 7, 1991. http://www.theses.fr/1991PA070101.
Full textOur research is organised around three main movements whose progression follows the difficult evolution by the woman characters towards a distinct and autonomous individuality. This evolution is studied in close connection with the various status of the man characters. So, in order to grasp the essentials of a theme, we took the double option to compose our corpus out of a nearly equal number of female and male novelists and to place side by side novelists recognized as great and other authors who enjoy less fame or who havge remained completely unkown. It is the entity of woman lost between morality and myths who makes up the first movement of our analysis. The male discourse occupies here the entire space of expression. In the second movement, women's individuality starts to take shape, but we see her grappling with the demands 0f desire and love, those of man and those of her own. The third movement of this study looks like the dawn of an (prise de conscience) which allows the female character to assume her new condition at the expense of a total loneliness. She uses freely her body and gains rights and places which were up to now reserved for men. Those men loose their prestige in the eyes of women who from now on revolve round other centres of interest

Full textThe subject of this dissertation is the disposition, the physical and material organization of the novel. Our main focus is on seventeenth- and eighteenth-century prose fiction, but we occasionnally overstep these boundaries, by discussing works of the Middle Ages, the Renaissance or the (early) nineteenth century. What we hope to establish is a historical poetics of novelistic division, where the formalist tendencies of traditional structural poetics are counterbalanced by an unremitting stress on " real " texts and novels, considered in all their historical specificity. The domain of the disposition include four different phenomena. There is the dispositif, the way a novel is divided into parts, books and chapters ; but there is also the archidispositif, where the single work (the opus) is federated in a larger ensemble (like the cycle or the sequence) ; the paradispositif, which appears when a novel is published in serial form ; and the quasidispositif, which occupies the same space as the dispositif (the volume), and appears in three main kinds : the collection, the anthological novel, and mimetic fiction. .

Full textThe first chapter of the dissertation presents Ducray-Duminil in his times. He lived and created in a period characterized by constant changes from the political, literary, cultural and social points of views. The development and the extraordinary success of his work can be noticed during the whole of this epoch, from the end of the Ancien Régime, through the Revolution and the times of Napoleon, until the Restoration. This part of the dissertation places special emphasis on Ducray-Duminil’s professional life and his many activities and fields of interest (literature, theatre, music, journalism). The second part of the thesis concerns the plot structure in the analyzed novels. Afterwards, a typology of characters is suggested and duly presented. The next chapter deals with the problem of the narration in the works of Ducray-Duminil. Several topics regarding the narrative reflection, which frequently appear in our corpus of texts, such as the supernatural, the politics, the religion, the novel or various didactical factors, are also described in this section. The last part of the dissertation contains an analysis of Ducray-Duminil’s literary heritage, a phenomenon which goes far beyond the French-speaking sphere of interest. Finally, possible mutual influences between our writer and Ann Radcliffe are closely examined in this chapter

Full textThe analysis is based on 381 french-canadian novels published between 1896 and 1970. After a concise overview of the evolution of the french-canadian novel in the more global context of social and cinematographical evolution in french canada, the author proceeds to a quantitative analysis of the collected data. This analysis demonstrates that male characters are equally interested in cinema as female characters ; that the infatuation for movie stars is mainly described by male, rather than female, writers ; and that this fascination is directed equally towards stars of both genders. This statistical analysis also indicates the double cultural adherence (french and anglo-american) of french canadian writers. The other chapters are devoted to a qualitative analysis of the explicit references to cinema. The author attempts to outline how the female and male writers present cinema in its links to society, individuals, the notion of reality and finally, how cinema is integrated to "l'ecriture romanesque" (the aesthetics of the novel). In conclusion, the author retains the important role played by cinema in the transformation of collective mentality, as expressed in french-canadian novels

Full textThe novelists between 1945 and 1970 revealed that the academic authorities appointed teachers according to specific criteria, subjected them to a status, imposed on them obligations, threatened them with disciplinary measures and rewarded them with advancement and honour. In that demanding occupation wages were often low and led to a poor standard of living. However the most underprivileged were the private school teachers who received lower wages and were more submitted to the authorities. Fiction, based on real facts, on the teacher in his professional role, either inclined to fail or to succeed, depicts his love inclinations inside and outside marriage, pictures him as a father or a son, shows his behaviour towards the laws and the great humanitrian values. It is through literature, didactic research or fiction that he reveals himself, as well as in politics, and the most gifted become masters of things and of the minds of admiring disciples. The writer gives a rather faithful image of the teacher and makes him a romantic character

Full textThe study of the output of romantic literature in france between 1827 and 1840 highlights the dominant position occupied during these years by a genre which contemporary critics and the authors themselves defined as universal. The period is remakable in that novels (second-rate novels or recognised masterpieces) appear capable of going beyond and indeed absorbing all other genres. In 1827, the "Préface of Cromwell" affirmed the desire of the "romantiques" to break free of genre-imposed limits. However, the Hugolien thesis triumphed less easily in drama than in fiction, which alone was able to merge all genres, traditional or otherwise. However, in 1840, the novel ceased to be such a "laboratory of genres" where anything goes: firstly, it once again resorted to clichés with the emergence of the serialised novel and mass-produced literature and, secondly, it abandoned genre-related excentricities in order to move towards realism in the novel. However, the hybrid novel of 1830, is multi-faceted in the way in which it merges the various genres, which fluctuate between between anarchy and order. Thence, by incorporating history and drama, the novel gains in terms of credibility and overall unity. However, at the same time, a wave of quietly ironic works mocked the aspirations of this generation to create a "total" novel : absorbing and deforming everything in their path, these fragmented works circumvented and renewed obsolete genres and even sought to go beyond their limits. By tacking all the various genres, they appear to be challenging literature itself, but as part of a movement from which the romantic novel, apparently badly shaken, emerges reinvigorated. This regenerative capacity can be found in novels which are apparently unclassifiable, which, for example, veer first towards dialogue-based genres, the towards poetry, seeking another type of harmony between the genres within a novel, towards whose development they contribute just as much as the ironic novels

Full textAssociated with preconceived images and full of prejudices, romance is a consumption product which embedies a social and cultural mirroring. In France for several decades, romance has gained an heterogeneous but loyal readership/audience. What are the motives of those novels which are said to be all similar? What do they represent for the readership? How are they perceived by those who read them? How are they read, apprehended and interpreted? These are some of the questions we try to give an answer to in this multidisciplinary work. The aims of this thesis are several : - On a 61-novel corpus: studying diachronically and morphologically the covers, the characters, the narrative patterns; analysing the lexical evolution on a digitized corpus of two million words thanks to different Natural Language Processing softwares ; - Studying reception, first by interviewing the readers, then by exploring a corpus constituted by messages posted on a discussion forum devoted to romance, applying Natural Language Processing methodologies. This research enabled to unveil the mecanisms involved in the evolution of romance since World War II, and to observe the different modes of reading and reception of these novels

Full textThe “Belle Époque”, the expression wich appoints the period extending of the end of the XIXth century to 1914, is a syntagm wich questions and whose origin remains uncertain : generally situated by 1918, its appearance does not amount to the strict comparison between the horror of the Great War and the peacetime which preceded it. The emergence of the syntagm “Belle Époque” is more complex and its uses tend to multiply, shyly, during 1930s and to stabilize after the Second World War. The representations of the Belle Époque are too source of confusion: between praise and disapproval, between indifference or sublimation, this inter-centuries does not unmoved and arouses numerous speeches, essentially literary, which constitute paradigm of the representations of the Belle Époque. The literary landscape of the 1930s presents a massive production of memories of period 1900 as well as numerous sagas to context Belle Époque. The literary genre, the context of writing, the narrative weft, tackled issues, the figures and the events, all these elements constitute the main factors of reconfiguration. It is thus essentially through the literature that invents the Belle Époque, at the mirror of the 1930s

Full textIn this work, we examined the literary period called Tanzimat(1850-1910), which was developed under the influence of European Literature. This period is a fundemantal change not only in history, politics, and society but also in art and literature. Thanks to these changes (Reforms in 1839) Ottoman Empire was introduced to the European ideas in literay and social areas. As a consequence of cultural or social relations with the western world, novel form entered the Turkish literature in second half of the 19 th century. During this period, many Turkish writers knowing western civilisation produced literary works especially novels to prepare the society for social and political reforms as well as to introduce western ideas. Among these writers, Ahmet Mithat Efendi was the most prolific pioneer in creating a new novel-reading society which was formerly a reader of national literature such as epic, folk tale, Mesnevi, and others, mostly in verse originating from Divan Litearture and Folk literature. Ahmet Mithat Efendi wrote Denizci Hasan in 1872, the first Turkish novel, borrowing its elements from Alexandre Duma's Monte-Cristo. Under the light of this influence, we did a comparative study between the two novels: Denizci Hasan and Monte-Cristo. Especially we focused on how seccessfuly Ahmet Mithat Efendi did this when he combined the western narrative elements making use of Dumas Père's Monte-Cristo as his original simple with those of Turkish folk tales into new novel form. This dissertation having 5 parts gives detail about the rise of Turkish novel under the influence of western literature especialy 19th century French novel in the main parts, and the beginning of the first historial and poltical relations with the western world, especialy France in the introductory parts
Callet-Bianco, Anne-Marie. "Le roman cyclique chez Alexandre Dumas." Paris 4, 1993. http://www.theses.fr/1993PA040024.
Full textThis analysis is based on three romantic series by dumas: the Valois cycle, the trilogy and the memoirs of a physician. These works are characterized by a cyclic architecture, animated by a double movement, prospective and retrospective, which determines the reading of the whole. The handling of the characters is clearly felt through this singular structure, as is that of time: one finds in dumas two different approaches to time, one linear and another cyclic, which coexist constantly. Elsewhere, the cyclic structure reflects dumas' historical thinking (and its contradictions). On fact he gets his inspiration from Vico and from his conception of a cyclic progression of humanity, based on the ideas of "corsi" and "ricorsi". But above all he adheres, as does Michelet, to the idea of a linear history based on an irreversible progress. Beyond the reversal of similar situations, the dumas' novels illustrate the evolution different represented groups: the royal family and the nobility are heading for disaster, whereas the people are growing in importance. In a parallel way, fiction retraces the mutation of value systems and of philosophies of action. From one cycle to another, the sense of history seems to be more difficult to grasp

Full textThis dissertation analyzes the evolution of French detective novels through the scope of its composition, especially the uses and functions of legal errors. It begins at the time of its creation in 1866 and goes all the way to 1939, the beginning of World War II, synonymous with the coming of a new subcategory of the genre known as the « roman noir » on the market of French literature. By examining legal error, I clarify the process by which detective novels reflect the transformations of society through the involvement of scientific discoveries, new judicial structures, and currents of thoughts. Data has been collected from an extensive corpus of detective novels and works of critics known for their studies on literature and society. To complete this study, I use three strategies.
First, I approached the question on a sociological aspect to demonstrate how detective novel is a genre of its time, its evolution in parallel with society. Second, on a more structural manner, I observed the structuration of the detective novel and the different tools or mechanisms used by authors to create the secret and delay the unveiling of the truth. Last, I compiled a corpus of literature to show the evolution of the detective novel, and I compared and contrast author's work to determine patterns of continuity or key moments of rupture in the structuring of detective literature. I completed my work with the analysis of an exception in the corpus: the collection of Fantômas, an outsider of the genre that comes as a counter-example, and illustrates the rise of a new demand. The findings show how legal error testifies of the drastic changes in the conception of literature and exemplifies that literature became accessible to a wider crowd of readers who have developed through History that particular taste and expectations defined as popular culture.

Full text"born" in 1842 with les mysteres de paris, french popular novels experience quickly great success which reaches its very peack point during the third republic. French popular novelists highlight a racist and nationalist ideology. Characters behaviours, such as drinking and eating, or love, family, work, money and religion themes, are revealing to that respect. They always draw opposite features : "good" people (usually they are french) versus "bad" people - most of them are foreigners. The way they stand together highlight discrepancies between two worlds. Obsessed with plot, the novelists prove to belong to a narrow and anxious nationalism. Mourning the lost in 1870 of alsace and lorraine, french popular novels show warlike pulsions which generate a particular novel type, called "roman revanchard" (novels of revenge). The celebration of colonialism has twofold sides, as though it were emphasized to make up for the french inferior colonial stand. Jealousy to england appears quickly even though novelists often depicts typical french republican ideas. A people (one says then: "races") typology soon originates, which is closely tied to the diplomatic period unions. Russians are friends but italians and germans become allies - against french people. Races, exotism or the "savage" character highlight the way french popular novelists took bias in order to use them as the period stereotypes. So that they created a catchy propaganda serving racist and nationalist ideas

Full textAfter having distinguished three explicative aspects of the novel (the psychological, social and plot-driven aspects) and defined three corresponding types of novels (novels of characters, manners and plot), this work focuses on the novel of manners during the Bourbon Restoration and the July Monarchy. Heir to quite an old tradition, this genre is at its peak with the Scottian historical novel and the novel of contemporary manners of the 1820’s. Balzac, first influenced by the novel of manners, develops in The Human Comedy a hybrid form (combining social and psychological aspects, novel of characters and novel of manners), which we may call the realistic novel (characterized by an overloading of verisimilitude). This definition of realism does not erase the differences between the authors; it allows, on the contrary, to appreciate the specific poetics developed by Stendhal, George Sand or Champfleury

Full textSince the end of 1970, in France and Spain, the writers express an interest growing for the detective novel. The comparative study of French and Spanish authors such as Vázquez Montalbán, Modiano, Pennac, Munoz Molina or Daeninckx makes it possible to highlight the role of a sub-genre in the field of literature. In response to the "avant-gardes" which issued the end of the story, of the characters and of the commitment, transgressing the limits between literature of masses and the art of the elite, these novelists in search of a narrative voice or way adapt the tools and the structure of a genre considered as very normative to give again a framework and sense to the contemporary novel. Reaffirming the bond between ethic and aesthetics as well as the statute of the fiction in its capacity to apprehend reality, they write a novel, concerned about the world. The investigation makes it possible to release the writing while raising the veil on a driven back past and to reconstitute the individual and collective memory

Full textIn this study we exert ourselves to show the specificities of Negro-African French speaking post-independence novel and to stress the fact that these one take part in the drawing up of a aesthetic indeed plural aesthetics which belong to it. In this point of view, it is necessary to mention progressive and perpetual emancipation process of African novel towards European novel and the sketch of narrative identity enough original. The emancipation of Negro-African novel with regard to European novel means the Latino-American character that it take. Moreover, we can add incontestably a systematic anchoring in African oral tradition. As for the advance of our reflection, this thesis is organized in three greater and essential parts which indicate each one the important moments of our searches. The different volets of our labours refer to linguistic aspects of Negro-African novel, to the narration with for corollary particulary use of space and of the time done for African people, to imaginary in the Negro-African novel and lastly to thematic springtide of African literature

Full textThe dissertation, which can be situated in the comparative studies section, aims at demonstrating to what degree Polish epistolary novel, drawing from French inspirations, represents the distinctive features of Polish speech and culture. The study refers to the question of writing and language analysed on two narrative levels, the author's discourse and the protagonist's discourse. First part of this study specifies the key terms regarding letter theory and demonstrates development and classification of epistolary novel. The second part deals with such para-textual elements as titles and forewords which exemplify similarities and differences between French and Polish cultures. The third part's main focus is the letter with particular emphasis on the situation in which the writer presents the moment of writing (writing abort writing) which results in the emergence of meta-language (métalangage). Subsequently, drawing from M. Głowiński's theory (formal mimetism) the study explores the relationship between fictitious letter writers and the rules of epistolary art. As well as it analyses two basic letter types: love letter and a letter to a friend

Full textThe present study accounts for the emergence, within the contemporary French 'roman noir', of a particular social group, and reports on how it evolves according to the various stakes, pressures and values involved. This explains why we do not question the literary genre in the formal features of its classification, but rather by interviewing the very members of the group. We hereby point out that the group emerges from a backdrop which includes a few interrelated factors : by identifying with the American thriller and its image of a 'social' novel, ie realistic and socially committed, the group attempts at disproving Mainstream Literature's allegation that they be a minor form of literature. And yet, what emerges from the interviews of the group is that not everyone agrees over the issues of political involvement and dissension with so-called 'white' literature. When investigating , gathering clues sleuth-wise, those are precisely the ambiguities and contradictions that we sought to clear up, from the very words of the writers interviewed, so as to reveal the ways and purposes of the group
Belhadjin, Anissa. "La narration et ses enjeux dans le roman noir contemporain." Paris 3, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2006PA030096.
Full textToday, “romans noirs” have in common a particular thematics, linked to a criminal transgression of the social rules. Within this thematic frame, structures and conventional narrative processes have been reconsidered allowing for a renewal of the genre. What outcome have the writers in mind when they work on the narration ? What are the stakes ? The use of these outstanding narrative processes, relates not only to the standpoint - multiplication of the focusing characters, playing with the point of view - but also to the timeline of the story, with flashbacks maintaining fundamental links with the plot rearrangement. The “romans noirs” are thus heterogeneous and the central role of the narrator weakens. On the one hand this heterogeneity is textual and allows for polyphonic and dialogic fictions. On the other hand, it is also generic : numerous novels show a mixture of the genres. Heterogeneity also questions us on the reception and the “noir” reading : a specific dialogic relationship between the writer and the reader, the importance of the play, are elements allowing us to consider the noir fiction according to the postmodernist aesthetics

Full textMauriac, who was both a novelist and a journalist, has led the two activities throughout his life of writer. He never denied one of them, although it happened many times that he interrupt for a while one of his two careers. In our study, we establish that between Mauriac's position as a writer of fictions and as a journalist, there is no contradiction. By introducing with an exceptional ability his personal style in both areas and by fighting for his freedom of expression, he shows that “a writer can make political journalism while remaining a writer". For the journalist-writer, it is impossible to establish a hierarchy between these two activities. Writing, whether they are political or literary, have for Mauriac the same importance. We reach the conclusion that in Mauriac’s writings, his ability as a journalist is demonstrated as much as his ability as a novelist, the success of the recent reedition of his bloc-notes may support this conclusion

Full textIn the first part we have analysed the difference between slang and popular language, the latter including "register" events revealing communication situations and used by any speaker, and "level" events excluded from the language of an educated speaker. Popular language, which defines itself in the novel by reference to litterary language of which it is only a variant refused by norm, constitutes a code which is described in the second part. Language is made popular thanks to some devices of a morphosyntaxic and phonetic nature which denote not only "level" but also "register" and which constitute a system in which each "denoter" draws its value from its "representativity" and "significativity". These are generally to be found in dialogues in some contexts fashioned by habit. In the third part we have shown how writing characteristics, style, may come not only from how the writer uses the code or how he expands it but also from the lexicon that escapes all codification, which we have proved in three comparative word studies of several writers. The fourth part is devoted to celine whose originality comes not so much from the popular code as from a search for "orality" based on syntax and mainly a permanent search for ambiguity in all fields: lexical, syntaxic, narrative and enunciative. At last, we have studied the pragmatic value of this popular language
