Cruzin-Polycarpe, Valérie. "L'épopée homérique du surf en France (ra)contée par Surf Session : une histoire des représentations médiatiques du surf de 1986 à nos jours." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024UBFCC011.
Full textAlthough surfing officially made its debut in France in 1956 on the Basque coast, its culture was not put into narrative form and disseminated by the media until 1986, when the first French surfing magazine, Surf Session, was created. Fascinated in their youth by these men from across the Atlantic who played with the waves and brought with them a new, liberated lifestyle, two men decided to create a French surfing magazine in March 1986. Surfing was booming at the time: surfwear brands were establishing themselves along the Aquitaine coast, national and international competitions were multiplying, as were clubs, whose development the magazine supported.As a privileged vector of surfing culture, this medium is both an archive and a means of promoting a new, sometimes counter-cultural sport and its social activities. A semio-historical analysis of the statements and visibilities contained in the issues over a period of thirty-eight years brings to light a Homeric vision of the practice in the form of an epic, first Illiadesque, then Odyssean, summoning ancient symbols and myths to create new ones. It contributes to inscribing the sport in the collective psyche through representations which this work proposes to deconstrcut by questioning its

Full textThis thesis is a comparative study of the Arthurian romances on the one side and the Shâh-Nâmeh of Ferdowsi on the other side, referring to the subject of the Grail. The challenge is, to study the origin of the Grail myth and try to explain the similarity between the myth of the Grail and Khvarna, the equivalent myth in Persian literature. In the first part, the thesis focuses on a study of the Grail myth in the work of Chrétien de Troyes, Wolfram von Eschenbach and Ferdowsi. Different manifestations of the myth, the spiritual sense around this myth will be the subject of this research in this part. In a second step, the thesis focuses the analysis on the origin of this myth much disputed among researchers of different schools, either Irano-Aryan or Celtic origin. This thesis defends the theory of Iranian origin, taking into account the Celtic myth too. According to this work, the structure of the Grail novel is based on Alano-Celtic folklore. Thereafter, Catharism, using it as the raw material, built a layer initiation specific to dualistic belief, in order to add the character of Perceval/ Parzival to the story of King Arthur. From this point of view, Parzival is closer to the Persian Kay Khosrow model. The divergence between the French author in relation to his German counterpart depends on their different social situation; Chrétien was an artist close to the religious authority of the Catholic Church and Wolfram, the knight who earned his living by singing, was close to Cathare heresy and the Templers. Finally, this work tries to show that the origin of this Aryan myth is that distorted by religions to achieve their ends and that the true meaning of the quest is not salvation but the “Übermensch”
Imperiali, Christophe. "En quête de Perceval : étude sur un mythe littéraire." Thesis, Paris 4, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA040248/document.
Full textAfter having outlined a functional definition of the “literary myth”, and having proposed a new way of approaching this object under the label “myrhoreadings”, the present work is divided into two main parts. The first one is diachronic. Its aim is to analyse the historical construction of the myth of Percival, from Chrétien of Troyes until now. The main purpose of this inquiry is to examine how the myth’s value and meaning were gradually elaborated through its rewritings, and how each period, each author have met the myth as a “mirror” reflecting his personal concerns and allowing him to configure his experience of the world. The main figures along this journey are (among about eighty authors) Richard Wagner and Julien Gracq. The second part proposes two thematic approaches to the myth of Percival: the first one focuses on the family issues and the relational stuctures central to most of the rewritings of the myth (where Oedipus, this “anti-percival”, is rarely far away). The second theme examines the frequent use of this myth as a model for the two poles of the literary activity: reading (quest of meaning) and writing (poetic quest). A few “percivalian poetic arts” thus conclude this study, from Wagner to Proust, Handke or Perec

This work purpose to show how the medical talk change the metamorphic myth. Togain an understanding of certain bizarre psychiatric symptoms it may be helpful to consider the effects of religions and culture. Despite the passage of time, the werewolf remain a powerful and evocative image. The influence of myth and legend has been filtered and observed with the passage of time but it is likely that the symptom of lycanthropy will continue to be seen as long as tales of the wolf-man frighten us. We have tempt a comparing with transsexualism, modem myth or delusion
Thibaudeau, Pascale. "Image, mythe et réalité dans le cinéma de Victor Erice." Poitiers, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1995POITA001.
Full textAn analysis of the relationships between image, myth and reality in the first three feature films of victor erice (el espiritu de la colmena. El sur, et sol del membrillo) with minor references to the short film el desafio. Critical tools are borrowed from structuralism, anthropology, psychaonalysis and semiotics. The first part, "the consciousness of time" deals first with the way time is recreated on the screan and then with the internal rythms which are specific to each film; then it centres on the mythifying of history by means of the image. The second part "an ordering of the world" devotes an important place to the study of space reconstruction according to principles of symmetry and concludes on an analysis of reflexive devices, of the status of enunciation and the question of the representation of reality
Lami, Arnaud. "La tutelle de l'Etat sur les universités françaises, mythe et réalité." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013AIXM1135.
Full textThe administrative supervision of universities deserves a particular attention due to its status and its very particular meanings. It reveals a part of uncertainty that should be analysed in order to understand the stakes. On one hand, administrative supervision is on many points justified and legitimated by ancient traditions and practices; these often contradict the letter of the texts that regulate them. On the other hand, the supervision answers a classic purpose of public law: to ensure a control of decentralisation. The supervision power over universities is surprising because this notion, imprecise and undetermined, is at the centre of a priori divergent interests. Whereas the autonomy and independence of universities seems to militate against the existence and exercise of a supervision power, the preservation of public service interests and unity is, on the contrary, in favour of university supervision.Thus, university supervision has a new meaning, which underlines its ambivalence: it protects both general interest against universities and university's autonomy against the state. A double movement is therefore initiated, which sees university law irrigating public law and the latter irrigating the former too

Full textEvery year, under the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program, Mexicans arrive on Canadian soil to fill the labour shortages with which farmers are faced. As individual social actors in a complex web of interdependence, both the Canadian farmer and the Mexican worker have their reasons for taking advantage of the program in spite of the criticism that surrounds it. The critiques are fueled by an international debate portraying farmers as mistreating, neglecting, and abusing their employees while depicting Mexican workers as victims of the program. However, this depiction is incomplete; it neglects the farmers’ perspective. Amidst a revenue crisis and faced with an uncertain future, producers are confronted by challenges specific to market gardening. Following interviews conducted in the summer of 2006 in three regions of Québec, Montérégie, Lanaudière, and the Québec City area, results demonstrated that interdependence between foreign workers and local producers was present. The nature of farm work is explored and the results attempt to put the existing critiques of the Seasonal Agricultural Worker’s Programme into a new context.
Solntseva, Irina. "Les récits de Platon sur le passé : entre le mythe et l'histoire." Thesis, Paris 4, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA040083.
Full textIn view of the diversity of Plato's texts about the past, the commentators have most commonly suggested to consider them either as a unitary, profoundly pessimistic, conception of history or as a rhetoric form that enables Plato to defend his different ideas. By calling into question the historicising interpretation of the narratives discussing the origin and the decline of the ideal state in the Republic and of the cosmic myth of the Statesman, we offer an synchronic reading of them, taking in consideration the connections between these passages and the Hesiodic and Sophistic tradition of narratives about the past. We suggest to distinguish, on the other hand, a specific category of the Platonic historical accounts that could be called the «myths about the past of Athens» : the Atlantis story and the historical section of the Funeral oration of Socrates in the Menexenus that we could understand the most clearly, in our opinion, if we take in consideration the notion of the “Noble Lie” that Plato introduced in the Republic. Finally, we're focusing our attention on the status of the narrative of the past in the Laws III, often considered as the most historical text in Plato, and we try to show, from this example, how Plato manages to combine the concrete historic facts and his political and psychological theories, following the same approach as in his accounts in the Republic II and VIII – IX
Vidal, Bertrand. "Les représentations collectives de l’événement-catastrophe : étude sociologique sur les peurs contemporaines." Thesis, Montpellier 3, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012MON30065/document.
Full textWhen disasters and catastrophes are prominent features of social and collective life, our aesthetic and cognitive vision or conception of the world is challenged or even overwhelmed. The contemporary world is experiencing a crisis that has shaken our certainties about nature and society’s control. This crisis is paradoxical, because it is rooted in our immense powers of transformation; the very same powers that sustain our hopes of progress. The unexpected consequences of these powers now feed our collective anxieties and fears. This research takes a sociological perspective to assess the influence of the social imaginary on the production of disaster events, and, in turn, the impact of the production of disaster events on the opinions, attitudes and risk-prevention behaviors and social representations of security. Based on a corpus of ten catastrophes (the December 1999 storm in Western Europe to the Fukushima disaster in 2011), and supported by field work (press, literature, cinema, video games and also disaster preparedness groups), this work reveals the effectiveness of the Durandian archetype and reveals reactivation of ancient myths and the emergence of new tales in the social complex, while introducing a new idea in the Occident: our age is fascinated by its power, but also terrified of a future in which it can see only promises of decline
Quando os desastres e as catástrofes surgem como traços marcantes da existência social e coletiva, é a nossa visão/concepção do mundo, tanto estética como cognitiva, que é interrogada, e mesmo posta em xeque. O mundo contemporâneo é atravessado pela crise das nossas certezas de dominação da natureza e da sociedade, uma crise paradoxal, dado que se enraíza nos nossos imensos poderes de transformação. Esses poderes alimentavam as nossas esperanças de progresso. Mas as suas inesperadas consequências estimulam hoje as nossas angústias e os nossos medos coletivos. Através de um olhar sociológico, esta pesquisaquestiona a força dos imaginários sociais na produção do evento-catástrofe e, em sentido contrário, a influência que o evento-catástrofe tem nas opiniões, atitudes e comportamentos de prevenção do perigo e nas representações sociais da segurança. Construído sobre um corpus de uma dezena de catástrofes (da tempestade de Dezembro de 1999 na Europa Ocidental até à catástrofe de Fukushima, em 2011), e apoiado numa pesquisa de campo (imprensa, literatura, filmes, videojogos, como também grupos de preparação para os desastres), este trabalho torna manifesta a eficiência da arque-tipologia durandiana e revela a reativação de mitos antigos, assim como o surgimento de novas narrações no complexo societal. Uma nova ideia irrompe no Ocidente: a nossa época está fascinada pelo seu poder, mas também se encontra aterrorizada por um futuro em que apenas consegue ler promessas de declínio
Cuvelier, Pierre. "Le mythe de Pélops et d'Hippodamie en Grèce ancienne : cultes, images, discours." Thesis, Poitiers, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012POIT5009/document.
Full textThis is a mythological study concerning mainly two heroic figures of ancient Greece: Pelops and Hippodameia, ancestors of the heroic genos of the Pelopids. In the continuity of the works of Marcel Detienne, Claude Calame or Charles Delattre about the notion of myth, no more considered as an « indigenous category » but as a construct built a posteriori by contemporary scholars, I define, on the basis of the minimal criterias that are the proper nouns of the heroes and their iconographical types, a corpus composed of Greek (and also in some measure Latin) texts and of Greek, Etruscan and Roman figurative works, which I then study systematically in order to find out more precise criterias of unity or discontinuity in the representations of these heroic figures, paying special attention to the great variety of contexts (cults, genres, historical eras) in which they are evoked. I thus study the heroic cults devoted to Pelops and Hippodameia in Olympia, the visual representations of these heroes, and the different forms of speech which mention them, from Homer to Nonnos of Panopolis. I lastly try to provide the main elements for a global study of this corpus in a perspective informed by historical anthropology. If the widest corpus, composed of the mentions of Pelops, has only a limited coherence, several subsets appear more pertinent, mainly that which is formed by the representations of the chariot race that allows the union of two spouses, despite the reluctance of Hippodameia's father, Oinomaos
Revol-Marzouk, Lise. "Le sphinx, de l'Antiquité au Romantisme : étude sur la constitution d'un mythe poétique." Paris 4, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA040171.
Full textThis work studies the emergence, from Antiquity to Romanticism, of a literary myth of the sphinx, resulting from the formal and symbolic convergence of two homonymous figures: the Egyptian sphinx, holy monument, on the one hand ; the Greek sphinx, legendary monster, on the other. Originally distinct, these figures have merged progressively into a metapoetic reflection on the literary depiction of the universal enigma. The sphinx, in its syncretic form, thus becomes the emblem of a symbolic idea of the universe and the book, both hieroglyphics to be deciphered by some Oedipal exegete. The ambivalence of the sphinx, the visible representation at Giza or the hidden mythem of the Theban story, leads to two different portrayals : the allegory, which, from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, explicitly illustrates the symbolic meaning of the sphinx ; the myth, which, during the romantic period, hides it in the text's metaphorical framework, as a poetical enigma
Singler, Christoph. "Entre mythe et ironie : études sur le roman historique contemporain en Amérique latine." Toulouse 2, 1990. http://www.theses.fr/1990TOU20020.
Full textBased on the analysis of four novels - vargas llosa's la guerra del fin del mundo; garcia marquez' el otono del patriarca; roa bastos' yo e1 supremo and otero silva's lope de aguirre principe de la libertad - these studies show how irony in latin-american historical novel transforms myth in collective imaginary into historical self-consciousness. Two groups of novels: the first one; using utopic vision against the myth of absolute power; on the other hand, novels illustrating collective mentality. Irony operates on various levels: 1. Ironic position of the actors re- garding the way latin-american history has taken; at the same time; irony is employed by the narrator in order to review the principles on which revolutionary action has been based on. 2. The figure of the writer himself and the effects fiction is sup- posed to obtain in society furnish additionnal matter to ironical reflection. 3. The opening of the narrative structure (the adaptation of dramatic form turns past into present) confronts the reader with the difficulty to sentence upon historical acts

Full textThis essay intends to show how, in edgar quinet's imaginary world, what can be called a literary myth - as a mythocriticism inspired by pierre albouy would call it - is gradually built up round the character of merlin. For the myth of merlin, as edgar quinet recreated it in his testamentary epic work (merlin l'enchanteur, 1860), shows all the fundamental characteristics of the literary myth as defined by pierre albouy. It takes root in a tradition or rather a group of traditions either belonging to folklore (barzaz breiz by la villemarque) or again belonging to historiography and romance (historia regum britanniae, vita merlini by geoffroy de monmouth ; brut by wace ; merlin by robert de boron, and all the anonymous works that followed in its wake). Out of this tradition the myth retains recurrent themes and characters (merlin as a prophet, a poet, an enchanter, now powerful, now buried alive by the woman he loves) which are woven into a complex tale, this narrative, enriched with new meanings, changes in quinet's work, at the outcome of a three-fold palingenesy, into a myth of the self, a myth of the poetic and a myth of universal history. Though branching, the romantic myth of merlin is none the less unified in its structure as well as in its meaning. Thus it shows the dynamic coherence that gilbert durand requires of a myth,and it builds itself around the schemas of difference and metamorphosis which reveal the active spell that edgar quinet demands for imagination and mythological creation

Full textAmong all the stories dealing with coming back home in European literature (the coming back of a sailor, a soldier, a traveller, the coming back of a husband, a son, etc. ), the best-known is, without any doubt whatever, that of Ulysses, narrated in the Odyssey which has been told again and again for almost thirty centuries. This exceptional good fortune is to be explained more by the crystallization of the main features that make up this thematic corpus than by the historical importance of a model. Homer managed more than any other story-tellers to clarify and typify the traditional theme of the coming back of the missing one by giving his epic a dramatic density and a narrative scope that has remained unequalled. That is what the first part of this study shows. Yet, this mythification process can better be understood a posteriori thanks to resurgences that have played a part in enriching the story of the coming back of Ulysses with remarkable plenitude both at semantic and emotional levels. If there is a field in which this idealization of the coming back is to reach its full climax, it is undeniably poetry in exile as the second part of this work shows. From Antiquity to the twentieth century, the poets far away from their motherlands have found in the tale of the coming back to Ithaca very inspiring poetic material to build up elegiac fiction in which homesickness also ignites incentives to come back of another nature : a coming back to paradise lost, particularly that of childhood and that of an inaccessible absolute. If it is abusive to speak about the Myth of Ulysses, it is legitimate to distinguish in this narrative set a myth of the coming back : the Odysseyan myth
Heches, Dominique. "De Magellan à Coloane : les géants des Terres du Sud : recherches sur le mythe patagonien." Perpignan, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PERP0873.
Full textIn this work the point was to show that a Patagonian myth exists which continues , remains perennial, and goes on developing. This myth was born first described by Pigafetta and we considered all the later stories as nothing but narratives written again and again about this fabulous adventure. So the Patagonian myth grew just as concentric waves formed when a stone is thrown in the quiet waters of a lake. That is to say that the myth spread in time. At every epoch , according to every author there is enrichment and proliferation ; every new look at this land teaches as much about the man who is observed as about the one who watches. It seems there might be lands fraught with myths and that the men who populate them, whether they be rich or poor, do nurse the fables , and an intimate correspondence between landscapes and human beings does exist. Many facts about that appeared as we progressed in our reading. Therefore, for the Patagonian myth to have lived , adventurers, sailors, soldiers , utopists, scientists had to go , discover, come back and narrate. From that time on the question was to know whether the Patagonian myth has only been a matter of writing, of rewriting, of reading, of rereading, in conclusion of literature

Full textThis work consists of an analysis of the principal myths present in a series of dualistic religions, trends or sects that affected during a long period western history and history of ideas. For the first time, religious dualism is defined and the myths of gnosticism, marcionism, manichaeism, paulicianism, bogomilism, and catharism are compared with one another. In some cases, direct derivation is observable: manichaeism derives from gnosticism, paulicianism derives from marcionism, moderate catharism derives from bogomilism, and radical catharism derives from origenism. But the main purpose of this study is to show that they form all together a system working according to a set of simple principles and producing endlessly new mythical sequences, combinations, and rearrangements. The closing chapter attemps to summarize the recent debates concerning nihilism and gnosticism. It comes to the conclusion that the two phenomena, though producing analogous myths, are hardly comparable to one another, since they are produced by an inversion of signs at the bottom of the system. Nihilism is the converse of gnosticism

Full textArthur Gobineau is an author who sparked controversy over his racial theories. These theories, however, have contributed to blur the image of the author, often described as the father of racist tendencies. This thesis is not concerned with the essayist, but with the writer, as a knowledgeable of the East, humanist, curious of the other, and especially unknown.Beyond these racial theories, Gobineau is the author of a literary work which, under the appearance of a hieratic classicism, sometimes gives us a vision of a highly complex man. It is one of the last representatives of the analysis literature, which is peculiar to French. But he is also positioned on the margins of the orientalist vision of his time.His journey to the East was operated first on an approach that was based upon subjective sensation and emotion before that the passion would eventually outweigh prejudices. The New Asians operates a transfiguration of the personal myth into a literary myth: the personal quest for origins is reflected in the return to the cradle of humanity. Literary fiction made its matrices wherein it all began.Transposing to the East reminiscences of his native culture, the author puts to the test of this elsewhere western patterns and figures. Is it the thought that grows with the fiction or the same obsessions that come back into the folds of the story as contraband? It is this question that we tried to answer by probing the eastern mystery of an unknown author

Full textThe author of this research assumed that Carlo Cattaneo's thought and action were the subject of a partly unjustified myth, tried to distinguish the true from the false. For this, he analyzed the cultural background of this 19th century Italian journalist, by emphasizing the influences of his family origins and of religion (a topic never before examined in this journalist's works), as well as his relationship with money. He was then able to process the results of his investigation to determine the underlying motivations of Cattaneo's action and thought. Indeed, this method allows to make the distinction between the fruit of an original proceeding and the consequences of his family's culture. This research throws light on Cattaneo's innermost thoughts, in particular up to 1848, a turning point because of the insurrection in Milan that he personally lead and which completely changed his life. The results of this part of the search, based on the analysis of particularly significant writings and letters, are validated by a statistical analysis that covers the abundant bibliography that exists on Cattaneo. By this innovative method, it is possible to compare the work with the criticism: it unveils interesting particularities, confirmed by the comparison with similar bibliographic statistics performed on eight other personalities that lead a role in the "Risorgimento" movement

Full textThis study is a reflection on the social imaginaries which characterize modern societies. Beginning with the principal ideals which generated European and North American societies, we will then analyze the Latin American case, particularly in respect to Chile. We will explore the concept of De Tocqueville’s “equality of condition” proposed as the main and structuring social imaginary of Northern Hemisphere societies. Reflecting on this concept, we show that Latin America’s structuring principle is, on the contrary, an imaginary of “inequality of conditions.” This imaginary is derived from a fundamental inequality of consideration among men and women, generating and reproducing unequal social practices and institutions, all of which originated mainly due to racial factors. By analyzing these social imaginaries empirically, we can reconstitute these two imaginaries in contemporary Chilean society. This study shows that the imaginary of inequality has produced two fundamental elements: classism and the “myth of the elite”, an idea shared by all social classes concerning the elite’s superiority. Currently however, this central imaginary is contested by the emergence of another peripheral imaginary, the egalitarian-individualist, which questions the hierarchical and vertical structures in microsocial interactions, social relations and central institutions

Full textA comparative study on the lifes of servius tullius, caeculus, romulus and cacus seems to reveal a common type of initiation for the "first king", the founder of a new city; and for at least a part of the tradition, all of them are said to be the sons of vulcan. In crete, we found a prehellenic god named velchanos, who has been substituted by zeus as the archetype of the initiated young boys. In others countries of the aegean world, the substitute is different : apollo at delos and cyprus, hephaistos at lemnos and, partially, athens. Etruria, where the smithgod is called sethlans, gives only one occurrence of a god velchans, but seems to have conserve same old customs, as revelated by figurative representations and legends. The relation between vulcan and the initiation can explain same pecu

Full textIn the middle of the sixteenth century, florence, through the florentine academy, gives birth to one of the most riches periods of its exegesis of dante. A global and diachronic study of a certain number of not very well-known readers of the divine comedy, enabled us to perceive the reasons of this assiduity in reading dante, and of its strong doctrinary orientation. Living a crucial moment of loss of its traditional political and cultural importance, florence is obliged to refute the accusations coming from the circle of padua against the divine comedy, henceforward the symbol of florence's linguistic and literary primate. Showing up the doctrinary subjects of the divine comedy, the florentine culture stands against the theory of formal art, dominating everywhere else in italy at that period. At the same time, florence refers to the neo-platonic interpretation praised during the age of lorenzo the magnificent, and, in that way, reaffirms implicitly its ancient prestige. To the end of the sixties, the political stabilization of the town, the relative reduction of its linguistics ambitions, and the new climate of the counter-reformation, opposed to the neo-platonism, reduce the importance of the public exegesis of the divine comedy, and cause its disappearing

Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018SORUL027.
Full textThis PhD thesis proposes a mythopoetic analysis of the discursive and gendered (re-)configurations of the myth of Hercules at the crossroads, as it has taken shape in the realm of European cultures, from Antiquity until the beginning of the 19th century, in German, English, French, and Italian. Adopting an approach at the intersection of cultural studies, comparative studies, gender and queer studies, the thesis begins with a critical rereading of the humanist interpretations of the myth, where the hesitating hero, torn between vice (or pleasure) and virtue, is the universal paradigm of a moral subject. Based on masculinity studies, the second part of the thesis recontextualises and historicizes Hercules choices from a gendered perspective. The core of this thesis revisits historical reconfigurations of the myth by looking at humanist pedagogy and its resurgence of epic forms in the long European tradition—including 18th century didactic plays and poems and coming-of-age novels that emerge at the turn of the 18th to 19th century. These become the primary discursive forms for narrating a hegemonic idea of masculinity. The thesis demonstrates that the Hercules myth constitutes a powerful “gender technology” (Teresa de Lauretis), that has operated as a vector for engendering, in varying contextual modalities, the figure of the liberal, masculine, white and straight subject, erected as the founding myth of European modernity (and its discriminatory implications). Departing from this argument, the last part proposes a queer reading of the myth, by exploring several rewritings that trouble the binary choice of the crossroads in order to better disorient its hero

Full textThe thesis is based on the constat that gestures in images are semantically polyvalent. Gestures have to assume also the verbal expression of supplication. It's a interaction of signs that does not refer to a structurate ritual, supplication is expressed by numerous rituals and figurative solutions. These is constructed by 7 chapter, centred about one ore more mythical characters. (Priamos, Alkmena, Telephos, Orestes, Kassandra, Dejanira). Suppliant in the center of composition is like a picture into a picture, with a process that is parallel of the textual one in attic tragedy. This statue/suppliant, fixed on the altar, take life by the gestures that implicate him. Supplication play on numerous levels, but in images it's thought almost essentially in the way of oikos

Full textAfter a brief historical survey concerning the representation of the angel from the middle-ages to the nineteenth century this workaims through fourteen literary studies at defining what characterizes the image of the angel in the twentieth century. Each of these studies introduces us into an imaginary world paculiar to its author, but each is subtly connected to the thirteen other studies as far as the image of the angel is concerned. Gradually is woven a mesh of fine-drawn meanings, which the conclusion tries to pin-point and to organize into a system. First, from a psychological point of view, the angel appears in a world haunted by the downfall and the nostalgia of the paradise lost. From an aesthetical point of view, the "angelic" writers are all involved in an unending quest of a symbolic key which would reveal the secret of the universe to them. From a sociological point of view, the angel would be the representation that the twentieth century man would have of himself : a deified man, from now on omnipotent in a universe without god

Full text"Ce mémoire porte sur les réécritures du mythe d’OEdipe dans Kafka sur le rivage d’Haruki Murakami et Les Gommes d’Alain Robbe-Grillet. Plus spécifiquement, il vise à cerner les stratégies par lesquelles ces auteurs se réapproprient le mythe d’OEdipe, d’abord en explorant les liens hypertextuels qui associent ces romans avec OEdipe roi, leur texte fondateur, ainsi qu’avec la psychanalyse freudienne. Ensuite, il sera question d’examiner les modalités entourant la transposition de ce mythe en un contexte moderne, en mettant en lien les thématiques et motifs qui sous-tendent chaque réécriture. Le mémoire procède, en dernier lieu, à l’analyse d’une philosophie de la métaphore dans ces romans, philosophie qui semble dans les deux cas (malgré les divergences fondamentales de point de vue des auteurs sur la question) liée de près à la question du mythe dans leurs oeuvres respectives."
