Full textThis research is focused on the Irish popular novel written by women between 1798 and 1921, respectively the year of the Irish Rebellion and that of the Anglo-Irish Treaty, recognizing the Irish Free State as a co-equal dominion of the British Empire. The authors analysed are Charlotte Elizabeth Tonna, Sydney Owenson (better known as Lady Morgan), Edith Somerville and Katharine Tynan, whose lives and works cover a fundamental period in Irish history, inaugurating the withdrawal of Britain from Ireland after eight hundred years, and the formation of an Independent Ireland in the south of the country. The main interest has been in analyzing the way these four writers write the nation, and through which religious images and references. The attempt is to reread their novels paying particular attention to religion, one of the main tie between author and readers: at the time when Ireland was acquiring the borders today still possess, there existed a common field, that of nation, on which convened politics, literature and religion. The aim is to show that popular literature is not secondary to any other narrative for the values and messages it conveys: to ignore it would mean to pay no heed to the devices through which society develops and changes.

Full textThe object of our research was precisely to demonstrate that historical and memorial elements played a key role in the construction of mediterranean heroines. Our goal was to emphasize these elements, to study their manifestations in the works and to question them in order to find the reasons why the writers chose these elements among others in the creation of their characters. We have therefore demonstrated that it is the heritage, the mythology and the Eastern and Mediterranean traditions that are claimed by our writers while appealing to Western reference and culture. Our research also allowed us to discover that historical events and cultural and religious traditions are not the only ones to influence the representation of the female character; We had to demonstrate that these writers nourished their works by drawing on their personal experiences and memories, and added the role of individual memory in the construction of the characters, which offered us avenues to explore the unconscious of these writers by revealing the imprints of the latter in the texts. This study also aims to demonstrate that the selected works are undeniable examples of the encounter between cultures and languages, to describe the different challenges faced by heroines and women writers, and to contribute to show that the latter express, through their writings, their humanism and their revolt against violence and murderous misogyny. Not being able to deny, in fine, that these committed writers united by the love of French language and culture insist on the fundamental role of writing

Full textJohn Henry Newman maak in sy outobiografiese geskrifte 'n aantal belangrike verwysings na sy toewyding aan Johannes Chrysostomos. Is dit bloot 'n kwessie van vroomheid, of dui dit op 'n dieper verband met die punt dat Newman in sy eie teologiese begrip, geestelike insig en pastorale praktyk deur Chrysostomos beïnvloed word? Hierdie proefskrif poog om te toon dat die besonderse voorbereiding van Newman vir die lees van die Kerkvaders, en in besonder, sy omvattende begrip van Grieks, hom van jongs af tot 'n verdieping in die patristiese denke georiënteer het, 'n feit wat hoofsaaklik deur sy Briewe en Dagboeke getoon word. Die aanhaling van Chrysostomos as 'n teologiese gesag, in Newman se leerstellige geskrifte en in sy gepubliseerde prediking, word toenemend duidelik en demonstreer wat beskou kan word as teologiese eienskappe wat die twee teoloë gemeen het. In Newman se geestelike begeleiding, veral in sy geestelike bystand en begeleiding van vroue, blyk daar 'n korrelasie te wees met raad wat Chrysostomos in soortgelyke omstandighede gegee het. In hierdie studie word dit ondersoek in 'n vergelyking van die briewe van Chrysostomos aan Olympias, en die korrespondensie van Newman met Maria Giberne. Behalwe enkele teologiese ooreenkomste en invloede, eksplisiet sowel as implisiet, is daar bewyse dat Newman iemand baie soortgelyk aan homself in Chrysostomos gesien het: 'n diep teologiese denker wat as gevolg van sy prediking prominent geword het en aansienlike institusionele weerstand op 'n diep persoonlike manier weerstaan het, en ‘n aansienlike mate van verlies as gevolg van sy oortuiging gely het, en tog onbelemmerd in sy getrouheid aan wat hy as sy missie verstaan het, gebly het, as priester,teoloog, leraar en predikant.
John Henry Newman makes a number of significant references in his autobiographical writings to his devotion to John Chrysostom. Is this simply a matter of piety, or does it reveal a deeper connection to the point that Newman is influenced in his own theological understanding, spiritual insight, and pastoral practice by Chrysostom? This thesis attempts to demonstrate that Newman’s very particular preparation for reading the Fathers, and in particular, his comprehensive grasp of Greek, orientated him, from an early age, towards an immersion in Patristic thought, a fact largely demonstrated by his Letters and Diaries. Citation of Chrysostom as a theological authority, in Newman’s doctrinal writings, and in his published preaching, becomes increasingly evident, and demonstrates what might be considered theological characteristics the two theologians hold in common. In Newman’s spiritual direction, particularly in his spiritual accompaniment and guidance of women, there appears to be a correlation with advice given by Chrysostom in similar circumstances; in the present study this is treated in a comparison of the letters of Chrysostom to Olympias, and Newman’s correspondence with Maria Giberne. Beyond any theological similarities, and influences both explicit and implicit, there is evidence that Newman saw in Chrysostom someone very similar to himself: a profound theological thinker, who rose to prominence as a result of his preaching, and who met with serious institutional opposition expressed in a deeply personal way, suffered a considerable amount of loss as a result of holding to his convictions, and yet remained undeterred in his fidelity to what he understood to be his mission, as a priest, a theologian, a teacher and a pastor.

Full textIn this thesis, we will explore the presence that Claude Cahun’s Jewish heritage has on her literary and pictorial works as well as on the construction of her identity. Firstly, we evoke theories of identity, more precisely of Jewish identity, to then analyze unique and particular Jewish traces in the works of the author-artist. We essentially analyze fragments of Aveux non avenus, all the while completing our reflection with peripheral texts. These excerpts show the influence of the Jewish tradition and the conflictual relationship that the author maintained with her religious and philosophical heritage. Through a precise and detailed analysis of the expression of her Jewishness, we attempt to highlight important evidence of these traditions in the Cahunian identity construction as well as in the developments of her work. Through the study of her texts, we can discern certain lineaments building to an aesthetic: that of “becoming”, of the perpetual metamorphosis. We note that the idea of “becoming” is the founding of Claude Cahun’s Jewishness, and in this thesis, we aim to demonstrate its importance. Secondly, we insist on the critical relationship kept by the author with the society on which she writes, whose customs and ideas are extremely influenced by religious dogmas. We highlight the virulent denunciations established by the analysis of specific scriptural strategies such as parody rewriting and misappropriation of biblical texts.
