Pełny tekst źródłaCette thèse examine comment les ouvrages In Search of April Raintree, de Beatrice Culleton, Obasan, de Joy Kogawa, et Running in the Family, de Michael Ondaatje, perturbent, par leur respect et leur transgression des règles de l'autobiographie littéraire, les formulations du "sujet" historique liées aux conventions propres à ce genre. Le site principal d'interprétation réside donc dans la délimitation des contours des narrateurs de ces textes en tant que "sujets" qui, tout à fois, écrivent l'histoire et sont écrits par elle. Cette thèse démontre que ces "fictions autobiographiques" inscrivent des récits qui remettent en question les comptes rendus "officiels" et examinent les articulations au sexe et à la "race", tant à l'intérieur de ces inscriptions officielles que dans leurs propres collectivités historiquement constituées. Ces dé(placements) textuels sont interprétés à la lumière des discours critiques du post-modernisme et du post-colonialisme. fr

Pełny tekst źródłaThis thesis focuses primarily on W. H. Auden’s last book-length poem, The Age of Anxiety, as well as several of Auden’s shorter poems extending throughout the modern, anxiety-ridden age. My second chapter argues that Auden blurs the distinctions between mythology and history and asserts that history is truly more subjective than seemingly objective, while my third chapter discusses Auden’s liminality between psychoanalysis and theology. After Auden’s conversion to the Anglican faith in 1939, Auden transitions from a Freudian to a more Jungian discourse, since Jung’s psychoanalyses incorporate theology, while Freud’s theories use psychoanalysis to determine religion’s implausibility. This thesis maintains that Auden presents readers with various antitheses throughout his canon as a way to challenge us to decipher beyond a binate understanding of larger, existential ideas and suggest, instead, that these ideas’ significance reside in liminality rather than in opposition.

Pełny tekst źródłaEmerson, Thoreau, et Whitman ont tous été attirés par des évocations de transition de la nature comme un moyen de définir le passage entre le monde et le moi, mais l'intérêt qu'ils ont porté au potentiel sans limites de l'esthétique idéale derrière le concept de « l'espace entre » a donné naissance à une poétique de liminalité qui les distinguent. Les conceptions fondatrices des notions de passage et de transition chez Emerson émergent en force dans les écrits de Thoreau et Whitman dans trois contextes ou modes inter reliés de liminalité, qui coïncident – en étapes ascendantes- aux Rites de passage d'Arnold van Gennep, processus triparti de l'initiation, de la transformation et de la réintégration, si importante à la théorie ultérieure de liminalité de Victor Turner. Pour ces trois auteurs américains romantiques, la liminalité agit dans des moments de clairvoyance qui soulignent les limites définies de frontières ou d'horizon ; dans des instants de transformation dus à des échanges inter pénétrants qui fusionnent ou confondent les opposés de chaque coté du seuil; ou en transfigurant des moments sublimes. Ici, la liminalité met l'accent sur le lieu physique qui sert comme ligne de démarcation ou seuil et sur le processus de passage de ce même seuil – le « limen » qui donne naissance aux transformations. La thèse s'intéresse d'abord aux façons dont les concepts phares d'Emerson et sa compréhension des processus spirituels et esthétiques ont amorcé une vision influente des poétiques de liminalité du dix-neuvième siècle. Les réponses très différentes de Thoreau au modèle émersonien de transformation, tel qu'il se dévoile dans les topos définitifs du paysage naturel, sont ensuite étudiés – d'abord dans les espaces liminaux de A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers et Walden, puis dans les contextes allégoriques plus sombres de The Maine Woods et Cape Cod. Le chapitre final examine la réponse ultérieure de Whitman aux poétiques liminales d'Emerson, notamment avec le personnage de Leaves of Grass, qui devient un héro transitoire de la conscience et un interprète médiateur de l'expérience humaine – guidant une communauté de lecteurs hors de l'immobilisme, à travers des moments critiques de transformation. L'étude se conclut avec un bref épilogue décrivant une trajectoire subséquente d'écriture qui émerge des poétiques liminales d'Emerson — une perspective esthétique générée par le pouvoir (mais aussi par l'indétermination) de la régénération continuelle et d'un renouveau.

s theories will also help highlight how Kureishi&rsquo
s characters create their liminal spaces and how they perform their identity within these spaces. Looking at both novels, it is concluded that the nature of identity is fluid since it is configured according to many variables such as religious practice, political activism, arts and sexual discourse which are not stable, either. Kureishi&rsquo
s novels fictionalize that identity can never be reified by the essentialist pre-givens of the traditional ideologies. In a multicultural world, rather than assimilation, it is important to grasp the unstable nature of identity in order to respect cultural differences. Thus, in a world where the dominant voices do not/cannot suppress the marginal ones, identity, national or individual, will keep on transforming itself.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe similarity between the writings of Novalis and Mallarmé has become a topos in research, however, it has never been the object of a detailed study. On the one hand, we cannot say that Mallarmé was directly influenced by Novalis, on the other, the declaration that they share a modern vision is just as insufficient. The connection between the two aesthetic projects has to be found on another level. In their respective contexts of crisis, that characterise the periods around 1800 and the second half of the 19th century, both poets outline a conception of art with the objective of a new organisation of modern spaces of knowledge. Boundaries are a central dispositive of this ‘third way’ because they make it possible to overcome the vanity of a representative conception of aesthetic experience. Novalis’ and Mallarmé’s aesthetics of boundaries do not confine themselves to simply assessing the negativity that results from the numerous fundamental limitations of modern human condition. Both of them do not primarily consider the phenomenon of boundary to be a mere function of delimitation. For Novalis and Mallarmé, a boundary is an autonomous space that possesses a high epistemological productivity and functionality. Boundaries are central configurations of aesthetic experience because they endow this experience with a specific mediality and performativity that allow to overcome the binary relationship between positive discursive knowledge and the unattainability of absolute knowledge. The aesthetics of boundaries are an important concept nowadays as the debate surrounding the epistemological relevance of art and literature is far from being finished

Pełny tekst źródłaAFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek die wyse waarop die ruimtebeelding in Joe Speedboot deur Tommy Wieringa in wisselwerking tree met die identiteitsontwikkeling in die roman. Aan die hand van teoretisering deur onder andere Henri Lefebvre word die uitbeelding van die sosiale ruimte in die roman aan die orde gestel. Die klassifikasie van Joe Speedboot as ‟n ontwikkelingsroman is hierby ‟n noemenswaardige uitgangspunt, omdat Wieringa die sentrale karakters se adolessensie, oftewel vormingsjare, in die roman uitbeeld. Die identiteitskonstruksie wat in die roman voorgestel word, strook met teoretiese beskouings van identiteit as ‟n dinamiese en gekonstrueerde konsep wat deur sosiale en kulturele oorwegings beïnvloed word. ‟n Ondersoek na die gesimuleerde werklikheid waarin Wieringa sy hooffigure situeer, dui aan dat die parogiale ruimte in die roman as stagnerend en voorspelbaar uitgebeeld word. In teenstelling tot die stilstand wat die ruimte kenmerk, word ‟n preokkupasie met beweging en vooruitgang aan die sentrale karakters toegeskryf. Beide die fisiese én eksistensïele dimensies van beweging en beweeglikheid figureer prominent in die roman. Dit word nóú verweef met die liminale posisie wat die karakters as adolessente in die gemeenskap beklee. Daar word geponeer dat die opposisie tussen stilstand en beweging nie net ingespan word by die ruimtebeelding en strukturele samestelling van die roman nie, maar ook ten grondslag lê aan die uitbeelding van die hoofkarakters se ontwikkelende identiteite. Die outeur kies in Joe Speedboot ‟n hoofkarakter met beperkte opsies en demonstreer hoe sy fisieke belemmeringe onafwendbaar op ‟n slot afstuur wat negatief óf positief geïnterpreteer kan word. In die lig van die hoë lof wat hierdie roman toegeswaai is, val dit vreemd op dat so min navorsing tot dusver oor Joe Speedboot onderneem is.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study explores the way in which the construction of space interacts with the development of identity in Joe Speedboot by Tommy Wieringa. On the basis of theoretical perspectives of, inter alia, Henri Lefebvre attention is given to the construction of the social space in the novel. The classification of Joe Speedboot as a Bildungsroman is an important point of departure in this regard, due to the fact that Wieringa depicts the central characters‟ adolescence in the novel. The portrayal of the construction of identity in the text corresponds with theoretical thoughts on identity as a dynamic and constructed concept that is affected by social and cultural considerations. An exploration of the simulated reality in which Wieringa situates his characters, indicates that the parochial space in Joe Speedboot is sketched as being stagnant and predictable. In contrast to the standstill which characterizes the social space, a preoccupation with movement and progress is ascribed to the central characters. Both the physical and existential dimensions of movement and mobility figure prominently in the novel. It is also interwoven with the liminal position the characters occupy in the community due to their adolescence. It is postulated that the opposition between stagnation and movement is not only exerted in the construction of space and the structural composition of the text, but is also presented as playing a determinative role in the development of the characters‟ identities. The author chooses for a main character with limited prospects and demonstrates how his physical handicap necessarily leads to a conclusion that allows for both positive and negative interpretations. Given the critical acclaim that the novel has received, it seems strange indeed that Joe Speedboot has thusfar not been the subject of analytical research.

Pełny tekst źródłaThis thesis is a comparative literature study of a Dutch and an Afrikaans novel that can be read by the youth and adults alike and display similarities with regard to genre, content, structure and theme. The novels are Winterijs (2001) by Peter van Gestel and Roepman (2004) by Jan van Tonder. Chapter 1 serves as an introduction. In chapter 2 concepts such as “crossover literature”, “cross publication”, “dual audience authors” and “dual audience literature” are discussed. Chapter 3 presents an overview of the theory that provides a conceptual framework for this study. The method of investigation that is followed by Helma Van Lierop-Debrauwer and Neel Bastiaansen-Harks (2005) in their study of the similarities and differences between an adolescent novel for the youth and an adolescent novel for adults is used, as well as the theory of Victor Turner (1969) on the concept of liminality. As it provides a useful method for approaching and analyzing the two texts, the above mentioned theories are applied to Winterijs and Roepman in Chapters 4 and 5, with specific reference to the representation of a male child narrator with liminal characteristics. In chapter 6 the similarities and differences between the two novels are pointed out and summarized. Conclusions are drawn and possibilities for further research are presented in chapter 7.

Pełny tekst źródłaA pioneer in the lyrical story in Tamil, Mauṉi (1907-1985) published 27 short stories, 21 of them exploring, in an elegiac tone, the characters moods as they search for ultimate meaning. These writings, closely associated with the little magazines that promoted them, generated an important production of critical texts alternately depicting the author as an ascetic of serious writing, a dilettante and a reactionary Brahmin.This monography aims both at explaining these discourses' implications in the construction of Tamil literary modernity and presenting an in-depth study of Mauṉi's writings. We argue that Mauṉi's originality lies in a poetics of the in-between, and each part of the thesis analyses a facet of his craft. The first one, which highlights Mauṉi's cultural hybridity, tries to assess his contribution to Tamil literature. It introduces the writer's cultural milieu, gives an overview of his writings and delineates their critical reception. The second part focusses on stylistics to show how Mauṉi develops a poetic prose based on the use of blurring effects, spirituality-oriented metaphors and symbolic landscapes. The third part describes the main aspects of his mysticism as an experience of liminarity : the depiction of altered states of consciousness, the creation of a character oscillating between the psychological I and the universal Self, the sacralization of the aesthetic experience as a glimpse of the Absolute. The fourth part describes the paradoxes constituting the mauṉian subject with reference to his way of being in the world, his conception of love, his viewpoint on culture and History

Pełny tekst źródłaEl meu estudi també analitza el paper pioner de Chatwin en la literatura de viatges moderna. L'autor qüestiona i subverteix la forma i el contingut del gènere i forneix els relats de viatges amb una nova taxonomia. El viatger es veu immers en una nova geografia de l'aventura en la qual la cerca ja no és de reportatge, triomf o autodescobriment sinó que és una recerca estètica.
La meva tesi també conclou que la seva manera tan personal de percebre la realitat a casa i a fora de casa va fer que Chatwin percebés la seva pròpia realitat d'una manera diferent: es va definir a sí mateix mitjançant una forma de subjectivitat no-convencional i així va crear una representació d'identitat i veritat diferent de la que s'espera trobar en relats autobiogràfics.
This study examines two innovative elements of Bruce Chatwin's narrative style. The first corresponds to his anthropological approach to writing, the second is his new mode of visual perception. As to the first, I argue that the concepts of liminality and communitas are the central axes of his poetics, thus conferring ideological wholeness and thematic coherence on his work. My underlying premise is that through his liminal chronotopes and personae he adds a whole new dimension of truth to storytelling. Besides liminality enables him to construct a new representation of subjectivity based on the metamorphosing nature of man on the one hand and on the inclusion and fictionalisation of personal obsessions in the process of literary creation on the other. Finally, liminality enables him to acknowledge human duality (with the pain that such recognition means) and in turn transfer this recognition in a both humorous and compassionate mood. Through the concept of communitas Chatwin partly faces his non¬committal political agenda while finding an identifiable way to justify his stance towards Englishness, nationality and universalism. Communitas also gives meaning to his belief in the fusion of form and content within storytelling. As to the second, Chatwin's way of seeing based on a search for both the uncanny and the miraculous determines his style of the uneventfulness on the one hand, and leads him to avoid simulacra, pose and panoramic visions on the other. My findings reveal that he foregrounds asymmetry in order to replace constraint in form and justify his belief in reality/man being constantly in the making. His is a democratic visualisation, born out of both a polycentric perception of reality and the respect for the multiple identities within the individual: Chatwin urges the need to "see" and acknowledge them all.
This study also assesses Chatwin's pioneering role in modern travel literature. The writer questions and subverts the form and the content of the genre and provides travel writing with a new taxonomy. The figure of the traveller becomes involved in a new geography of adventure in which the quest is no longer a search of reportage, victory or self-discovery but an aesthetic search in which the landscapes are created first in the imagination.
Finally, my study also concludes that Chatwin's particular way of perceiving reality both abroad and at home made him perceive his own reality in a different way: he defined himself through an unconventional kind of subjectivity, thus creating a representation of identity and truth other than the one expected in autobiographical accounts.

Pełny tekst źródłaThis dissertation stems from the search for a subject without reference to the webs of relations that hold it. Through rhizomatic movements, it breaks territorialities of narrative and moves beyond the subject’s thresholds by following literary and cultural lines of escape away from imprisoning forces of subjugation. The investigation flows along marginalized sites of transformation and displacement and through sites of resistance and decolonization. In my readings of migrant and Indigenous literatures, deterritorialization and decolonization intertwine at three major sites: liminality, in-betweenness, and becoming. These sites are not only innovative aesthetic forms that cross the threshold of identity in our contemporary culture; they also participate in the project of reinventing and rearranging the relation of self and other toward new beginnings. The new perspectives that are offered engage ethically, avoid judgment, and foresee the possibilities for revolutionary political, social, and economic transformation. The movements of deterritorialization that emerge within the writings and artistic production of Richard Mosse, Chris Abani, Leslie Marmon Silko, Thomas King and Rawi Hage provide possibilities for reflection at the thresholds of different male subjects in crisis. This project first addresses the underlying Thing that moves in between territories and confounds the desire to capture its essence; instead, following Deleuze and Guattari, it moves along with the male subjects’ nomadic movements as they become desubjectified simulacra in various sites of unlearning. In Richard Mosse’s Incoming and The Castle, for example, such a site of unlearning separates the materiality of the displaced from its image and informs discourse about the ways in which representation endangers, limits and violates existence. Through Abani’s GraceLand, this project further investigates modes of liminality and initiation ceremonies and acknowledges the lived experiences of male subjects in different cultural structures. In Rawi Hage’s novels, I explore the ways masculinity arranges or rearranges itself creatively in acts of performance. The dissertation also again turns to liminality by way of Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony, and Thomas King’s post-apocalyptic narrative of identity. In this way, the harmonious conjunction of Indigenous voices and Indigenous and migrant literatures attempts to locate where these lines of escape might come together, refuse to cross, or crumble back upon themselves in flows of violence.
