Full textThis thesis aims to analyze the figure of androgyny from the movements of Symbolism to the abstract avant-garde. This reinterpretation of modernity at the turn of the 20th century in France allows an understanding of how Symbolism explored the trouble of sexuality within a social and political context entrenched by the crisis of masculinity. The visual and anthropological study of sexual norms reveals a fear of the androgynous in-between associated with psychopathological theories of homosexuality. This thesis demonstrates how androgyny is tied to what I call the artistic “third gender,” defined by the refusal of gender assignation and new models of representation and intersubjectivity, following the feminine immersion within the masculine. In the first part, the study of the Neoclassical and spiritual sources of androgyny demonstrates the search for the political and artistic ideal, allowing for the regeneration of the unity of sex. The second part reveals the resurgence of this ideal in the fin-de-siècle Symbolist's practices through different androgynous models such as the figure of the angel, the ones of Orpheus and the primitive third sex. Toward the trouble of sexual identities, the reception of idealism is analyzed through the rhetoric of degeneration associating androgyny, masculine effeminacy and homosexuality. The last part examines the pursuit of the androgynous ideal in the sources of abstraction. The abstract third sex nourishes the avant-gardist utopia of an art that is self-perpetuating, devoid of sexual characteristic and led by a modern artist, single and androgynous

Este trabalho examina a correspondência entre Guimarães Rosa e seus tradutores alemão, italiano e norte-americana, com vistas à depreensão e análise de perspectivas rosianas sobre o simbolismo sonoro. Examinam-se as reflexões sobre o tema que se podem depreender (a) das considerações gerais que Rosa faz no corpo das cartas enviadas a seus tradutores; e (b) das detalhadas instruções que ele acrescenta em anexos, para dirimir dúvidas específicas colocadas pelos tradutores. Mostra-se, pela análise das epístolas, que a criação linguística rosiana tende a abarcar de forma deliberada e até certo ponto calculada a sonoridade sugestiva, por meio de singulares onomatopeias, aliterações, assonâncias e padrões rítmicos, resultando em um simbolismo sonoro. Conferindo carga expressiva, força e plasticidade ao texto, o simbolismo sonoro é um importante aliado nas estratégias rosianas de privar o leitor da bengala dos lugares comuns (carta a Harriet de Onis) e de convidá-lo a ter com a língua uma relação que não seja unicamente lógico-reflexiva (Carta a Edoardo Bizzarri). Mostra-se ainda que, no que tange às formas como dialogam com as teorias linguísticas, as reflexões e atitudes tradutórias de Rosa, tendendo à recusa do princípio da arbitrariedade do signo, apresentam convergências parciais com discursos teóricos que sustentam o simbolismo sonoro, em especial os de Jespersen e Jakobson.
This work examines the letters exchanged between Guimarães Rosa and his German, Italian and American translators,aiming to apprehend and analyse Rosa s perspectives on sound symbolism. It examines the reflections on the theme that can be inferred from (a) the general considerations that Rosa elaborates in the body of the letters sent to his translators, and (b) the detailed instructions he adds in attachments to resolve specific questions posed by them. It is shown, by analysis of the epistles, that Rosa’s linguistic creation tends to encompass suggestive sonority in a deliberate and somewhat calculated manner, by means of singular onomatopoeias, alliterations, assonances and rhythmic patterns, resulting in a sound symbolism. Charging the texts with expressiveness, strength and plasticity, sound symbolism is an important ingredient in Rosa s strategy to deprive the reader of the walking stick of common place (letter to Harriet de Onis) and to invite him to engage in a relationship with language that might go over the strictly logical-reflexive plane (letter to Edoardo Bizzarri). The study shows, moreover, that Rosa’s reflections and attitudes as a translator can be related to linguistic theories that tend to refuse the principle of the arbitrariness of the sign, also showing partial convergences with theoretical discourses that defend sound symbolism, especially those of Jespersen and Jakobson.

Full textThis thesis focuses on the relationship between literature and esoteric currents, through the study of the symbol of the rose in European literature, more specifically in French and English literature of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This research is based on a transversal and interdisciplinary approach, bringing together different fields of literary and historical study, as well as a variety of literatures and authors from different periods. The initiatory dimension of the rose, coupled with the topos of love, is the basis of my research, whose starting point is a forgotten work from the nineteenth century: Il Mistero dell'Amor Platonico nel Medioevo by Gabriele Rossetti, father of the Pre-Raphaelite painter and poet Dante Gabriele Rossetti. In this work, for the first time Gabriele Rossetti revealed the esoteric dimension of the work of Dante and the Fedeli d’Amore (Faithful of Love) – the Italian love poets of the Middle Ages who, through their poetic compositions, conveyed mystical and initiatory ideas, as well as religious and political ones. According to Rossetti and the critical movement he initiated, this doctrine of esoteric love was also present in the love poets in a number of European contexts, such as the French troubadours and trouvères, the English minstrels, the German Minnesänger and the Scandinavian scaldes, handed down through the centuries until the nineteenth century. This aspect is the focus of my research: transmission of this alleged esoteric knowledge, in the form of love, to later centuries. In his Mistero dell’Amor Platonico, Gabriele Rossetti pointed out that the most important symbol for understanding the esoteric doctrine of love is the rose, and this thesis is devoted to the symbolism of this flower. The study of the initiatory dimension of the rose in literature involves two themes linked to the concept of initiation: one concerns mysticism and the other, initiatory Orders. In the first case, initiation is linked to a mystical dimension involving an ontological transformation of the being, while in the second, the symbolism of the rose refers to esoteric and initiatory Orders which have more or less directly played an important part in the history of ideas. These two themes are often connected and can be found in European writers such as Gérard de Nerval and William Butler Yeats. The first part of this thesis is devoted to Dante and the poets of the Middle Ages, as well as to authors of the Renaissance. I then move on to nineteenth and twentieth century authors, such as Honoré de Balzac, Gérard de Nerval, Joséphin Péladan, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ezra Pound, William Butler Yeats and Umberto Eco. Most of the writers and poets featured in this thesis are directly or indirectly linked to Dante and the love poetry of the Middle Ages, to the Fedeli d’Amore, and even to Gabriele Rossetti. Thus, this research proposes a rethinking of literature – one in which esoteric culture and thought are of particular importance, as many literary works throughout history are imbued with elements and motifs referring to the esoteric tradition. The study of the esoteric and initiatory dimension of the rose symbol provides the opportunity to explore a field of research where literature is closely linked to esoteric currents, particularly in French and English literature (and more generally, in European literature) of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: from the rose of the Fedeli d’Amore in the Middle Ages to the Secret Rose by William Butler Yeats, who affirmed that “no man or woman from the beginning of the world has ever known what love is”

Full textGender studies in various disciplines, particularly anthropology, have shown that the opposition of masculine : feminine is commonly used to structure other cultural contrasts, and that the representation of this opposition in cultural products is in turn implicated in the cultural construction of gender content. This bidirectional problematic, supplementing the more limited critique of gender 'bias' and masculinist models, is the focus of this research into archaeological materials. Rock art is the principal archaeological 'trace' analysed. Because the impetus to gender studies comes principally from the critical standpoint of feminism, analyses of gender and gendering in archaeological materials are evaluated in the context of gender issues in the present day, in terms of archaeological 'reconstructions' as legitimising the existing gender order. Theoretical influences include feminism, hermeneutics, marxism, (post)- structuralism, semiotics, and discourse theory. Aspects of language, and, particularly, the oral narratives of various San groups - the /Xam, G /wi, !Kung, Nharo, and others - are examined in order to establish the way in which masculinity and femininity are/have been conceptualised and differentiated by San peoples. This is followed by an assessment of the manner of and extent to which the masculine: feminine opposition informs narrative content and structure. The analysis of language texts permits an approach to the representation of this opposition in non-language cultural texts (such as visual art, space). Particular constructions of masculinity and femininity, and a number of gendered contrasts (pertaining to form, orientation, time, number, quality) are identified. Gender symbolism is linked to the themes of rain and fertility/ continuity, and analysed in political terms, according to the feminist materialist contention that, in non-class societies, gender opposition is potentially the impetus to social change. Gender(ing) is more fundamental to San cultural texts than has been, recognised, being present in a range of beliefs which are linked by their gender symbolism. I utilise a 'fertility hypothesis', derived from a reading of the ethnographies, in order to explain various elements of Southern African rock art, Well-preserved (thus relatively recent) paintings, principally from sites in the Drakensberg and south-western Cape, were selected. Features interpreted via this hypothesis include: images of humans, the motif of the thin red line fringed with white dots, 'elephants in boxes', therianthropic figures, and 'androgynous' figures, including the eland. The spatial organisation of the art, the significance of non-realistic perspectives, and the problem of the numerical male dominance of the art are also interpreted from this standpoint. The analysis permits critique, of the theorisation of gender and ideology in rock art studies, and of the biophysical determinism implicit in current rock art studies, in which attempts are made to explain many features of the art by reference to trance states, altered consciousness and neurophysiological constitution. Rain, rather than trance, is proposed as the central element of San ritual/religious practices. Finally, the treatment of (or failure to consider) gender(ing) in the archaeological record is situated in relatio.n to contemporary gender ideologies, in the contexts of archaeological theory and practice.

Full textThis study examines the 23 works of fiction published by rose macaulay in the first half of the twentieth century. As her writing had many close connections with her life, a biographical sketch can remind the reader of the most significant episodes of her life (1881-1958), especially her childhood in italy, her studies at oxford, her meeting with gerald o'donovan, her innumerable journeys and the serenity brought to her last years by her return to the church. The end of the first section deals with the evolution of her literary career and reputation, her views on the novel as a genre and the genesis of her works. The second section analyses the different aspects of her novels. They are the works of an intellectual who has a cult for knowledge and whose staggering erudition appears at every page; of a journalist who offers us a rich chronicle of the political, social and religious life of her time; of a historian deeply in love with the past; of a moralist, keenly aware of the tragic meaning of life, but who remains nevertheless a tolerant nonconformist. The third section discusses the three key motifs - travelling, woman and religion - of a writer who dreams of "abroad", especially mediterranean and exotic countries, who, although a rather moderate feminist, succeeds in creating a number of unforgettable female characters, and who, despite a long period of agnosticism, shows a constant interest in the church of england the last part is devoted to the art of the novelist. If her technique remains traditional, her characters are remarkably real and alive

Full textIn 1869, when a student at the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris, Luc-Olivier Merson received the Rome Prize in history painting. The award allowed him to complete his training with four years of study in Italy. A well-known artist in his own time, Merson showed regularly at the Paris Salon before broadening the scope of his creative activity to include decorative painting and illustration. Beyond his taste for monumental painting, he evinced a keen interest in religious art, whose conventions he overturned, making use of recondite iconographic sources and unusual subjects. Suspended between Academism and Symbolism, Merson displayed a penchant for drawing, always privileging line, even as he maintained a subtle and refined sense of color. Having emerged from the shadow of his father, the art critic Olivier Merson, and endowed his work with a self-conscious archaism and idealism, Luc-Olivier Merson might justly be classed among the precursors of Symbolism. By studying the life and work of Merson, we may come to understand the aesthetic choices and the audacity of an artist too often—and too hastily—termed “Pompier” in twentieth-century art historiography
