Sawada, Chikako. "Muriel Spark's postmodernism". Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2004. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/1561/.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This study explores the shifting notions of postmodernism developed through Muriel Spark’s fiction, and thereby clarifies this artist’s own postmodernism. I use Jean-François Lyotard’s definition of the notion in his The Postmodern Condition (1979), that there is no grand narrative, as my starting point, and deploy various postmodernist theories, which can illuminate Spark’s art and can in turn be illuminated by her art, in my arguments. Throughout the thesis, I focus on two of Spark’s most important themes as crucial keys to understanding her postmodernism: the theme of individual subjectivity and the theme of the interplay of life and art. The thesis begins with the claims Spark makes for her individuality and her individual art through the voice of “I”. Chapter I considers issues about being a woman and an artist, which Spark raises around the narrator-heroine of a fictional memoir, A Far Cry from Kensington (1988). Here I present this heroine as a definition of the strength of Sparkian women who liberate themselves by practicing art. Chapter II discusses Loitering with Intent (1981), a fictional autobiography of a fictional woman novelist, alongside Spark’s own autobiography and her various biographical works. This section illustrates Spark’s notion of the “author” in relation to the “work” - and an author in control in her sense - by investigating the dynamic interplay of life and art in the form of this novel. Chapter III analyses The Driver’s Seat (1970), the novel which most shockingly elucidates the postmodern condition according to Spark and demonstrates her postmodernist narrative strategies. Her concern with the crisis of the “subject” in the world in its postmodern phase is observed in the figure of the heroine, a woman who has tried and failed to be an author in control. I argue that Spark here theorises the notion of subject, by providing her own version of the psychoanalytical “death drive” and also represents the Lacanian real as the unfigurable with this figure. Chapter IV and Chapter V follow the developments of Spark’s discussion of the crisis of the “subject” in two of her later novels. Chapter IV concentrates on the theme of Otherness in Symposium (1990). Chapter V discusses Reality and Dreams (1996), in which Spark pursues the theme of excess and opens up the contradictions inherent in this notion to bring about a new philosophy of life by art as excess.

My PhD thesis analyses Catholic themes in the novel,s of Scottish born writer Muriel Spark. Spark's career spanned five decades, and much of her work was influenced by her conversion to Catholicism. She is a sophisticated and enigmatic writer whose work defies categorisation. Part of this difficulty stems from her position as "other" within Catholicism· -a result of her conversion and her refusal to adhere to traditional Catholic gender roles. What does become clear upon examining Spark's fiction is that she uses subversive and paradoxical rhetoric to highlight the problems inherent in being unable to fully comprehend God's mystery. Spark appears to be obsessed with several religious concepts that appear constantly in her fiction. In the case of the Catholic convert and the Book of Job, these threads appear repeatedly and build to a climax-once Spark comprehensively addresses them in her fiction, the threads disappears from her work entirely. In exploring these Catholic themes, it becomes clear that, despite Spark's work being abundant with references to religion, there is very little narrative space devoted to the character's internal thoughts regarding God and religious thought. I argue that in Spark's fiction, creativity is a proxy for religious faith. Spark draws parallels to the personal and individual nature of both, but devotes more narrative space to explaining a sense of faith in the creative process. She also appears to grant narrative endorsement to characters who believe in and ate guided by their creativity, even when they clearly traverse the boundaries of acceptable "moral" behaviour.

McIlroy, Colin William. "Muriel Spark and the Romantic ideal". Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2015. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/6439/.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
By narrowing the disparate and often contradictory trajectories of Romantic thought into a compressed framework, this thesis seeks to scrutinise the treatment of the Romantic ideal in the fiction of Muriel Spark. A number of recurring themes can be understood to collectively constitute this Romantic ideal. These include Coleridge’s theory of the power of the imagination to coalesce disparities into unity and harmony. The relationship between creativity and psychosis in The Comforters (1957) is considered within a wider discussion on the nature of creativity and the conception of the visionary Romantic artist. This leads to an investigation of the Romantic Movement’s emphasis on interiority and the self, and the influence of John Henry Newman in The Mandelbaum Gate (1965). The resulting discussion treats the concepts of transfiguration and the sublime as they relate to individual subjectivity in The Driver’s Seat (1970). The Romantic fascination with the reinvigoration of myth, legend and oral narrative cultures is examined in relation to The Ballad of Peckham Rye (1960), and the discussion returns to unity, harmony, vision, and the artist in The Finishing School (2004). The investigation of these elements of the Romantic ideal highlights a number of corollary questions. The emphasis on the self prompts the examination of Spark’s engagement with the themes of solipsism, ego, and performance, while Keats’ ‘Negative Capability’ is considered in the attempt to comprehend the other. The methodology will be comparative textual analysis with reference to relevant extant criticism, alongside consideration of literature from anthropology and folklore studies. By illuminating previously overlooked connections with Romanticism and Romantic literary methodologies, this interdisciplinary approach will assist in ascertaining whether Spark’s sustained engagement with these themes is evidence of a complex, multivalent relationship with the Romantic ideal, or whether recent criticism positing her rejection of Romanticism can be upheld.

Nasaif, F. K. I. "Muriel Rukeyser : poetry and the body". Thesis, University of Reading, 2015. http://centaur.reading.ac.uk/55811/.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
The human body occupies a central place in Rukeyser’s poetry. Her characters’ physical experiences inspire their search for an artistic form and a holistic vision that reconciles the corporeal and conceptual aspects of their life. My thesis deals with Rukeyser’s reconciliation of disparate aspects of existence through the image of the human body and the practical experiences she underwent in her personal life and incorporated in her poetry. I discuss her poetry of the 1940s, where a tension is observed between the artist’s personal life and her art, which she attempts to resolve by adopting an artistic form that accommodates her quotidian experiences. I study, mainly through her poetry of the 1950s, Rukeyser’s poetic technique in the light of her organicist poetics and the combination of tendencies to coercion and suggestiveness distinguishing her style. I examine her portrayal of the suffering body in her poetry of the 1960s and 1970s. By means of their physical experiences, the ill, her despised and the imprisoned protagonists undergo a process of development whereby they perceive the different aspects of their identity and attempt to broaden perspectives on their situation by reconciling them. I argue that Rukeyser’s engagement with physical encounters and with the poem as an inclusive, organic body enables her to reconcile disparate elements in her poetry, such as her personal life and her art, her individual existence and the public world, as well as the distinct aspects of her characters’ identity. Her vatic outlook, which integrates distinct aspects of experience, is consistent with Merleau-Ponty’s idea of human perception as characterised by the two interdependent positions of immanence and transcendence. Rukeyser’s poetry depicts her physical engagement with quotidian events of her life as a factor of artistic inspiration. These situations constitute shared human experiences that enable her to imagine the links binding her to other people and the world at large. The poet’s personal experiences inspire her search for an artistic form that accommodates them. Her perception of the concrete aspect of her individual existence gains significance when it is linked to social and political issues. Both the private and public are thus seen as interconnected, and they affect the existence of each other while retaining their distinctness.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This thesis explores the sources of documentary in the work of Muriel Rukeyser. It argues for a distinct correlation between her writing and the modes, techniques, and ideologies of the documentary movement as it flourished during the 1930s, the decade in which Rukeyser came of age. Although recent scholarship has noted Rukeyser's debt to the photographic and reportorial trends of the 1930s, such scholarship focuses primarily on her early, modernist poetry, and does not investigate the enduring influence of documentary on her work. My thesis addresses this lack, charting the dialogue that emerged between Rukeyser's relational poetics and documentary's similarly intertextual and interdisciplinary approach to the realities of the world. It posits that Rukeyser's interest and involvement in the various aspects of documentary lasted for the duration of her life. It further argues that this profound connection goes some way to explaining her guiding poetic principles. Chapter one discusses Rukeyser's experimentation with the documentary form of the photo-text. It examines a process by which Rukeyser's belief in the necessity of the confluence of image and word took shape. Chapter two investigates Rukeyser's engagement in the documentary discourse of biography. It examines the extent to which the 1930s' impulse towards the aesthetic and iconographical depiction of human lives informed Rukeyser's own methods of biographical representation. Chapter three locates the sources of Rukeyser's engagement with documentary within the discipline of American Studies, and examines her contribution to the American project of national and literary re-discovery. Chapter four explores Rukeyser's involvement in travel reportage and touring the American landscape. It illustrates how Rukeyser pioneered a poetic cartography that provided witness to both the past and the present. In so doing, she constructed a mapping device by which to read her own poetics of connection.

Muriel Spark's novels engage with a wide variety of other texts, embracing both "popular" and "high" cultural forms. They display a democratic enjoyment of the popular and of story-telling while at the same time adapting established formulas to serious purposes. Theories of intertextuality therefore provide a rewarding approach to her novels. The functioning of their humour is compatible with Mikhail Bakhtin's concepts of the dialogic and the carnivalistic, but Julia Kristeva's formulation of the operation of intertextuality indicates that readings derived from it would go against the grain of a Catholic novelist's enterprise. However, Muriel Spark's novels can be seen to participate in rather than resist deconstructive explorations of meaning. A frank admission that texts are based on other texts and an acceptance of conventions as points of departure is comparable with Christian belief in something external to the self. The challenge to orthodoxy favoured by Kristeva may, in a bourgeois culture, take the form of resistance to a humanist emphasis on individualism and Romantic notions of originality. The idea that God is accessible only through texts endorses the importance of textuality and supports the capacity of fiction to engage with debates about the limits of indeterminacy. In this study discussion of theory is linked to close readings of individual novels. Different kinds of intertexts are considered - those which may be termed cultural attitudes, such as concepts of the self and ideas of place, as well as written ones. Attention is also given to the impact of the rhetorical strategies adopted, and to the connection between subverting narrative conventions and challenging received opinions. This necessitates recognition of the contribution of the novels to debates about political power, their use of satire as a weapon, and their demand on readers to play

Through the Dust is a novel that takes place in the city of my birth: Istanbul. Using an earthquake as a driving force, the novel explores several themes: the ability to ‘know’ fictional characters and by extension real people, the role memory plays in how we view the world and each other, fate vs. free will, and isolation. Book One entitled ‘The Failure of Ali’ takes place before the earthquake and tells the story of Ali Toz who has hyperthymesia, a condition which prevents him from forgetting and often pulls him into the past. Each chapter alternates between the past and present, allowing us to follow Ali’s youth, his strained relationship with his mother, his time at the ‘school for the gifted’ and his marriage to Mina, while watching his present self wander through Istanbul. It is only when the past catches up with the present that we understand why Ali has come back to Istanbul after 20 years even after vowing never to do so, and why he is so desperate to find five old schoolmates. Book Two entitled ‘The 24th of July’ follows Ali’s five schoolmates through the twenty-four hours before the earthquake happens. Kerim is a surgeon who is having a particularly bad day. Elif is a telemarketer who has been played by her boss and is hated by everyone in her office. Ayse is cheating on her husband in an effort to find the love he promised her she would feel. Omer is going to propose to the love of his life and Didem is stuck in a bar-tending job so she can be with an emotionally destructive man. As the characters go through their day, completely immersed in their own problems, the earthquake strikes the city. Book Three entitled ‘Mary Was Here’ takes place the day after the earthquake and tells the story of Mary, a young woman who has a fatal brain tumor that is making her forget everything. In a parallel voyage to Ali’s, Mary arrives in Istanbul by hitching a ride on an aid bus coming in from Bulgaria. We don’t know why she has come to the city or who she is looking for, but she seems to believe that whoever it is may be able to help her. Early into her arrival, Mary loses her belongings and finds herself alone in the city. One by one, she encounters the five characters from Part Two. It is with Kerim that she creates a real bond and in the midst of all the chaos Mary gets swept along and ends up working as a nurse in a make-shift burn unit by the Golden Horn. The critical element of the thesis, entitled “In The Driver’s Seat: Decoding the Narrative Style of Muriel Spark” focuses on the narrative style of Muriel Spark in the eeriest of her novels. Through an investigation of The Driver’s Seat, I will endeavor to show the narrative and thematic complexity that lies within this seemingly simple and much overlooked novel, and how her techniques influenced my own work.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Les romans de Muriel Spark confrontent le lecteur avec un paradoxe : ses récits se concentrent sur les absurdités de la vie, alors qu'un grand nombre de ses personnages proclament leur foi catholique. Ses intrigues reposent sur l'irrationalité du comportement humain. Hommes et femmes, apparemment peu soucieux de leur sort ultime inéluctable, se laissent conduire par leurs passions et leur sexualité, menant des vies vides de sens, dans un monde qui porte le sceau de l'imperfection. Ils se heurtent a l'incompréhension, quand ce n'est pas l'hostilité, de leurs semblables et s'absorbent dans la recherche d'une vérité toujours fuyante. Pendant ce temps, le monde est soumis a la souffrance, aux maux sociaux, a la guerre et a la mort. Le mal est l'oeuvre du diable, qui emprunte les traits humains, ou de plus en plus fréquemment le fait des hommes seuls. Tout d'abord imprégnée d'un sentiment religieux et de l'étrange, l'oeuvre de Mrs Spark, qui passe de la comédie a la tragédie et inclut même le gothique, se fait progressivement moins chrétienne et plus absurde. Les romans reflètent un monde profondément casse et offrent, en un style original et dépouille, une fresque frappante de la condition humaine. L'art, toujours au coeur des thèmes sparkiens, a remplace la religion comme valeur transcendantale et antidote de l'absurdeMrs Spark's novels present the reader with a paradox: her stories focus on the absurdities of life, and yet many of her characters proclaim their christian - i. E. Roman catholic - beliefs. Her plots centre around the irrationality of human behaviour as men and women, apparently oblivious to their ineluctable ultimate fate, let themselves be driven by their passions. They live routine, empty lives dominated by sex in an imperfect world amidst uncomprehending, and as often as not hostile, fellow human beings. They spend much time and energy trying to avoid their fate or grappling with the problem of truth: meanwhile, the world is prey to suffering, social evils, war and death. Evil is the work of the devil acting under the guise of men, and increasingly of men alone. Indeed, at first imbued with religiosity and the uncanny, her fiction, which ranges from comedy to tragedy and even accommodates the gothic, has gradually become less christian and more absurd. Her novels reflect a deeply fractured world and stand in their unmistakable terse style as stark statements of the human condition. Art, a central theme in the novelist's work, has replaced religion as a transcendental value and as an antidote to the absurd

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
In this thesis I read a selection of novels by the Scottish writer Muriel Spark as participating in a broader ‘spatialization' of fictional and aesthetic production consolidated during the 1970s, through which they refract the decade's socio-cultural change. My intention is to establish a richer historical and theoretical context than that in which Spark's fiction has traditionally been understood, such that its distinctiveness will both emerge from and in turn shed light upon this wider background. In particular, the stylized, economical spatiality of Spark's work in this period seems at odds with the most influential accounts of spatialization as either an attenuation of historicity or an expression of an unconscious and broadly realist ‘mapping' impulse (these being the poles of Fredric Jameson's diagnoses of the spatial turn). What I consider Spark's more reflexive ‘miniaturism' reaches towards a condensation of the historical referent, while bringing into focus the discrepancy between container and contained; the playful collision of spatial scales in these postmodern allegories grants them a fabulist and gendered dimension distinct from Jameson's more expansive and totalizing ‘cognitive mapping'. Beyond situating Spark within a pre-existing context, then, approaching these novels theoretically and historically opens up a different perspective on the ‘spatial form' of much postmodern fiction. More broadly, I argue that it is through this parallel formal evolution within the longer history of the novel, with its particular limits and potentials for fiction's ‘utopian imagination', that these texts critically mediate (and not merely reflect) a perceived ‘cultural closure' in the years after 1968 – a teleological spatial metaphor which recent histories of the seventies have begun to contest.

Muriel Spark's detached, and often dark, sense of humour has brought her prolific body of work both popular and critical acclaim. However, some critics lament that she treats the events and characters of her novels too lightly; that her deliberately cultivated sense of distance prevents her works from dealing with truly important issues. This thesis argues that Spark's sense of purpose lies within her comic and satirical tone, as opposed to existing in spite of it.
In her interviews and speeches, Spark reveals a preoccupation with the idea of ridicule as a method of confronting evil. Her 1971 speech, "The Desegregation of Art," states that "Ridicule is the only honourable weapon we have left" (35), and urges her audience to abandon more sentimental styles of art in favour of satire. To Spark, self-knowledge is tied to a sense of the absurd, and it is the writer who must both recognize the ridiculous and share that recognition with her audience, all the while delivering pleasure and entertainment.
Spark's detached writing style provides a necessary distance for seeing absurdity and avoiding sentimentality. Spark's attitude of detached ridicule mirrors Henri Bergson's social theory, where ridicule is seen as a disciplinary element and becomes a crucial tool for social control. She employs ridicule on two separate and distinct levels: an authorial level, in which she chooses the content she will expose to mockery, and a level within the narrative, where characters use ridicule and laughter to influence events. In The Ballad of Peckham Rye [1960], The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie [1960] and The Abbess of Crewe [1974], Spark's powerful characters are those who wield and control satirical insight, an insight which usually accompanies the role of "writer," as they act against oppressive, and often fascist, authority.

The main aim of this work is to observe the female presence in Muriel Spark.s novels The Driver.s Seat and Symposium as a factor that can translate the reality of women who look for autonomy and that also offers, as a result, a relation between this attitude and the social reactions they cause. Based on studies that deal with identity matters (within gender studies, specifically, the feminist criticism) the recurring use of certain themes will be verified. Among them we can point out death, madness and an apparent control on the situation which in some way reveal problems, conflicts and afflictions of the observed characters. In the first chapter, the author is placed within the women.s movement as a way to have a better comprehension of her work by putting her in a specific context. Then, her work.s most evident characteristics are observed in relation to women.s practices as a whole. Among those questions that mark women.s writing studies, in the second chapter will be mentioned some critical trends interested in those writings and which differentiate them from men.s writing. The proposal of the criticism centered in the woman (gynocritics) deals with the difference emphasizing the women.s body, language, psyche and culture. Based on these critics it will be made a preliminary analysis of Spark.s novels. In the third chapter, gender matters begin to be discussed as an analytic factor which foresees internal differences in women.s group as well as similarities to men.s works. This gender aspect causes a reading no longer binary and based on hierarchies, but one that allows the differences to become a factor of freedom and autonomy. Finally, the author.s contribution to Literature and her relation to the women.s movement will be subject to brief comments.

No terceiro capítulo, as questões de gênero passam a ser discutidas como fator de análise que prevêem diferenças internas ao grupo das mulheres, bem como semelhanças com trabalhos masculinos. Este aspecto do gênero ocasiona uma leitura não mais binária e hierarquizada de textos, mas que permita às diferenças tornarem-se fator de liberdade e autonomia. Finalmente, a contribuição da autora para a literatura e sua relação com o movimento das mulheres constitui objeto de breves comentários.
Abstract: The main aim of this work is to observe the female presence in Muriel Spark.s novels The Driver.s Seat and Symposium as a factor that can translate the reality of women who look for autonomy and that also offers, as a result, a relation between this attitude and the social reactions they cause. Based on studies that deal with identity matters (within gender studies, specifically, the feminist criticism) the recurring use of certain themes will be verified. Among them we can point out death, madness and an apparent control on the situation which in some way reveal problems, conflicts and afflictions of the observed characters. In the first chapter, the author is placed within the women.s movement as a way to have a better comprehension of her work by putting her in a specific context. Then, her work.s most evident characteristics are observed in relation to women.s practices as a whole. Among those questions that mark women.s writing studies, in the second chapter will be mentioned some critical trends interested in those writings and which differentiate them from men.s writing. The proposal of the criticism centered in the woman (gynocritics) deals with the difference emphasizing the women.s body, language, psyche and culture. Based on these critics it will be made a preliminary analysis of Spark.s novels. In the third chapter, gender matters begin to be discussed as an analytic factor which foresees internal differences in women.s group as well as similarities to men.s works. This gender aspect causes a reading no longer binary and based on hierarchies, but one that allows the differences to become a factor of freedom and autonomy. Finally, the author.s contribution to Literature and her relation to the women.s movement will be subject to brief comments.

Este trabalho tem por objetivo realizar uma leitura dos contos da autora escocesa Muriel Spark, nos quais a importância das práticas narrarativas se manifesta como a característica mais evidente: a estrutura narrativa e as construções significativas agem em favor da expressão de um modo de estar no mundo e, mais regularmente, representam também o grande desafio que a leitura poderá abrigar ao tratar das personagens, em especial as femininas. No entanto, é necessária a identificação das referências que constituem os mundos ficcionais, geralmente atreladas à realidade e à proposição de novas formas de inteligibilidade. Em geral, estas formas estão implícitas no texto e cabe às leitoras e aos leitores acessá-las; para que isto ocorra, devemos reconhecer que estrutura narrativa e caracterização de personagens encontram-se intrinsecamente relacionadas. Por meio dos contos sparkianos, é possível ter uma ampla visão da obra da autora e, ao mesmo tempo, das práticas e experiências das mulheres historicamente situadas. Assim, a tese que defendemos é a de que os contos de Muriel Spark, com base nas construções significativas presentes no texto, permitem um diálogo entre o texto e a realidade sob o enfoque da personagem feminina. Servindo-se das referências adequadas, a leitura dos contos sparkianos pode contribuir para a compreensão das formas de interação das mulheres em seu próprio grupo e com o grupo dos homens

This paper presents the lives and early feminist works of two modernist era poets, Laura Riding Jackson and Muriel Rukeyser. Despite differences of style, the two poets shared a common theme of essentialist feminism before its popularization by 1950s and 60s second wave feminists. The two poets also endured periods of poetic silence or self censorship which can be attributed to modernism, McCarthyism, and rising conservatism. Analysis of their poems helps to remedy their exclusion from the common canon.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This study is about British postwar fiction and its canonical reception according to a special categorisation of the novelists who were publishing in Britain during the two decades after the end of the Second World War. The study emphasises that mainstream literary criticism of 1950s and &rsquo60s Britain tended to catalogue the novelists of this period according to a well-established dichotomy between tradition and innovation in which the traditional realist novels, the neorealist works of C. P. Snow, Angus Wilson and Kingsley Amis, were privileged over any other fictional work having modernist innovative characteristics. Therefore, the first published novels of Iris Murdoch, Muriel Spark and John Fowles, novelists belonging to today&rsquo
s postmodern canon, were first critically recognised as social realist works in Britain. One of the objects of this study is to demonstrate the shortcomings of this classification. Moreover, the main argument of the study is that none of these three novelists should have been classified as a traditional realist novelist. All of these three British postwar novelists were reconceptualising traditional realism by self-reflexively including the problem of representation as part of their conventional subject matters in their formal realist novels.

No âmbito desta dissertação de Mestrado na área de Estudos da Tradução, interessamo-nos pelas relações entre literatura e cinema a partir de um corpus composto por duas obras contemporâneas em língua francesa, a saber, o romance L'élégance du hérisson (2006) de Muriel Barbery e o longa-metragem Le hérisson (2010) de Mona Achache. Valendo-nos nas ideias propostas por Linda Huctheon em Uma teoria da adaptação (2011), analisamos estratégias e escolhas adotadas pela cineasta na criação de uma obra cinematográfica que dialoga com o texto literário. Para tanto, privilegiamos o estudo de elementos como tempo, música e elipses. A fim de constatar em que medida o estudo de uma obra permite melhor compreender a outra, examinamos a função do paratexto (Genette, 2009) e do intertexto (Kristeva, 1974) no romance e no filme, além de nos interrogarmos sobre questões identitárias dos três protagonistas, bem como sobre suas relações de alteridade.

This essay is a psychoanalytical reading of the Scottish author Muriel Spark’s novel The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. The protagonist is a charismatic teacher, who is popular among her pupils, but who appears to use her power and position merely in order to manipulate her pupils. It appears that Miss Brodie’s main interest is not her pupils’ academic achievements, but she has a different agenda on her mind. This essay examines the unconscious motives behind the protagonist’s peculiar treatment of her pupils by learning more about what takes place in the human mind, when the individual starts to listen to the sound of defensive mechanisms instead of to the sound of logic.

This thesis discusses the emerging of new types of transvestites subjectivities and new ways of existence called transvestility. With views to that, we have analyzed a series of statements composed of the strip cartoons from the narrative ‘Muriel Total’ by the renowned transgender cartoonist Laerte Coutinho, in which it is possible to observe the transformation of the character Hugo into Muriel. These discourse analysis seek to demonstrate how heteronormativity makes it possible the transvestilities by not allowing their existence, taking into consideration that the same law segregates and produces them. Therefore, according to Butler (2012; 2013) we propose that the abject bodies – the ones which are not allowed by heteronormativity – are discursively produced following desires that can be formed discursively by the norm, deviating from it while they rearrange themselves, resisting to it by not repressing themselves, thus, making transgender ontologies possible. For that purpose, it was also sought to design a panorama, an archaeology of contemporary transvestites, seeking to distinguish them from their predecessors, the hermaphrodite and the transvested individuals – whether considering what was clinically defined as fetishistic transvestitism or by the association with the image of an effeminate man from final 19th century and part of the 20th century. It was also observed on Foucault’s studies of sexuality (2007a; 2007b; 2007c), that the confession – being a tactic used by the Church and by science, especially the psi ones – having being the means to construct sexuality, figures as a trace of a statement of themselves made by transvestites when they start considering themselves as an object of ethical importance. However, due to the main scope of the study, it is criticized the heteronormatizing model of Freudian psychoanalysis that is Oedipus Complex, as long as it is obeserved the productive characteristic of the transgender schizo. Therefore, the research is developed through the analysis of the cartoon stripes, based on the concepts introduced by the French Discourse Analysis, such as, discourse, enouncement, discursive formation, cultural formation and discursive memory, as well as dialoguing with Gender Studies and Anthropology via authors such as Geertz (2008) and Wagner (2012), when discussing about culture, and to philosophy following Foucault’s (2003; 2007a; 2010a), Deleuze and Guattari’s (2010) criticism to psychoanalysis’s modus operandi concerning to the question of power in the relation of desire with the subject and among subjects, implying on a criticism to the (hetero)normative model which, through Oedipus Complex, leads the individual to conceive itself as a heterosexual. Thus, the transvestites’s existence is possible exactly because they do not submit their desire to the obligation of mattering their bodies according to a binary perspective, in which, each gender would be dialectically conceived (masculine/feminine) and performed by the attribution of its respective birth sex, also having their desire oriented to the opposite sex, making the subjects compulsorily heterosexuals. Meanwhile, it is by non-subjecting to the norm, from a force (Thûmos) discursively converted into desire, that transvestites matter their bodies in their abjection, inventing themselves and their culture, new desires, inventing ways of life on the ethical relation with themselves and with others. Thus, leading us to believe that their very existences are etopoietic, for being thumopoietic – thence thumopolitic – whose complexity is bigger than the on powerful relation of desire with the regular individual, once it is by abjection that the transvestites claim their ontological status, their existence becoming different transgender beings.
Esta pesquisa discute a emergência de novas formas de subjetividade da travesti e de modos de existência denominados de travestilidades. Para tanto, analisamos uma série enunciativa composta pelas tirinhas da narrativa Muriel Total, da renomada cartunista transgênera Laerte Coutinho, na qual se observa a transformação da personagem Hugo em Muriel. Tais análises discursivas buscam demonstrar como a não permisão da existência de travestilidades, pela heteronormatividade, as torna possíveis, visto que a lei que as segrega é a mesma que as produz. Ou seja, com isso, propomos, segundo (BUTLER, 2012; 2013) como os corpos abjetos – aqueles que não são permitidos pela heteronormatividade –, são produzidos discursivamente segundo desejos os quais, ainda que possam ser dados discursivamente pela norma, em seu rearranjo se desviam da mesma, resistindo-lhe por meio do não recalcamento, tornando possíveis, assim, ontologias transgêneras. Para tanto, buscou-se ainda, traçar uma cartografia, uma arqueogenealogia da travesti contemporânea, buscando distinguí-la de seus predecessores, a saber, o indivíduo hermafrodita e o indivíduo travestido – quer pelo que se denominou clinicamente por travestismo fetichista, quer pela associação com a imagem do afeminado de fins do século XIX e boa parte do XX. Observou-se ainda, conforme a História da sexualidade de Foucault (2007a; 2007b; 2007c), como a confissão – sendo tática usada pela igreja, depois pela ciência, especialmente as ciências psi –, tendo sido aquilo pelo qual a sexualidade foi erigida, é um traço na enunciação de si que fazem as travestis quando tomam a si como objeto de importância ética. Contudo, e diante do principal objetivo da pesquisa, critica-se o modelo normativo heterossexualizador da Psicanálise freudiana que é o Complexo de Édipo à medida em que se observa o caráter produtivo da esquize transgênera. Nesse sentido, todo o trabalho se realiza pelas análises das tirinhas, pautando-se segundo categorias do campo teórico da Análise do Discurso francesa, tais como discurso, enunciado, formação discursiva, formação cultural e memória discursiva, bem como seu diálogo com os Estudos de Gênero, a Antropologia, via autores como Geertz (2008) e Wagner (2012), no referência à cultura, e à Filosofia, pelas críticas feitas por Foucault (2003; 2007a; 2010a), Deleuze e Guattari (2010) ao modus operandi da Psicanálise quanto à questão do poder na relação do desejo com o sujeito e entre sujeitos, implicando uma crítica ao modelo (hetero)normativo o qual, por meio do Complexo de Édipo, interpela o indivíduo a ser sujeito heterossexual. Assim, a existência da travesti se possibilita exatamente pela não submissão do desejo à obrigação de materializar seus corpos segundo uma ótica binária pela qual cada gênero seria concebido dialeticamente (masculino/feminino) e performatizado na atribuição do mesmo ao respectivo sexo de nascimento, tendo, igualmente o seu desejo orientado para o sexo oposto, fazendo dos indivíduos, sujeitos compulsoriamente heterossexuais. Nesse ínterim, é pelo não assujeitamento à norma, que as travestis, a partir de uma força (Thumós) discursivizada em desejo, materializam o seu corpo em sua abjeção, inventam a si, a sua cultura, novos desejos, inventando modos de vida na relação ética consigo – e com os outros –, o que nos faz considerar, portanto, que as existências das travestis são etopoiéticas, porque thumopoiéticas – e, por isso, thumopolíticas – cuja complexidade é maior do que na relação poderosa do desejo com o sujeito normal, visto que é na abjeção que as travestis reivindicam o seu status ontológico, devindo em sujeitos transgêneros.

The aim of this study is to analyze the complexity of a narration and how a narrator can show himself in a story. In the novel L’Élégance du hérisson, (The Elegance of the Hedgehog) (Barbery 2006) there are several voices to be heard in the narration and we will analyze the differences. In all literary genres there is always a voice that tells the story. This is what Gérard Genette claims as the starting point for his narratological theory, which is the theoretical basis for this study. The study of different techniques allows sometimes to better understand the action and the meaning of a story. In this essay, we deal with the narrative instance, which is the fundamental form of the narrator, the questions of who speaks and how someone speaks in a story. Genette describes the narrative instance as the connection between the narrative voice, the time and the narrative perspective. The result shows that the thoughts and the metaphors in the time of the narration are the most important aspect, in particularly the interpolated narration. That because it’s not only the action in the story that counts but even what’s happening in between the events.

This thesis explores the figure of the trickster in the works of Elizabeth Bowen, Elizabeth Taylor, Iris Murdoch and Muriel Spark. By looking at these writers’ treatment of elusive, illusive and allusive characters, the thesis argues that they each incorporated what can be read as “trickster” figures in their fiction as a means of addressing anxieties about art, society and the self. The trickster is a character-type found in narratives from a multitude of cultures and eras, and is typically characterised by his subversive presence, his boundary-crossing and his role as a healer of predicament. While the trickster is often perceived as a universal phenomenon arising from a collective unconscious, this thesis instead focusses on writers’ intentional inclusion of trickster characters in literature as a way of thinking through specific problems. Bowen, it will be shown, interpolated tricksy characters drawn from myth and fairy-tale into her fiction in order to expose a perceived rift between art and academia; Taylor used the trickster to think about the construction of identity in post-war Britain; Murdoch took models from Shakespeare to create tricksters that helped her explore the ethics of writing fiction; and Spark’s tricksters allowed her to conceptualise truth and lies, and good and evil. Concentrating on four mid-century writers whose works have been seen to vary in genre and style, this thesis demonstrates that a trickster paradigm emerged in mid-twentieth-century British fiction – a period not previously associated with the trickster. Influenced by converging strands of trickery and allusion in art through the early decades of the twentieth century, notable mid-century British writers used outsider characters to probe social and artistic shifts in a landscape fractured by war and to reach for a sense of healing. By identifying such characters as trickster figures, this thesis sheds new light on patterns of subversion, healing and character in mid-century fiction. It explores the particular affinity the trickster had with women’s writing, and illustrates how the trickster was important to twentieth-century concerns surrounding metafiction and the role of the reader.

Cette these porte sur l'etude detaillee du personnage qui a donne son nom au roman -jean brodie- etude qui nous permet de mieux comprendre l'auteur -muriel spark- dans les aspects les plus importants de son art du romancier qui lui tiennent le plus a coeur et qui sont : son affirmation de sa foi catholique, l'im- portance capitale a ses yeux d'un monde plus reel que le notre qui est celui de la vie eternelle. C'est parce que jean brodie ne mettra en avant, dans sa vie et dans son enseignement, que le monde des sens qu'elle sera condamnee par l'auteur. Ainsi la menopause qu'elle voulait transformer en legende, en mythe ne sera qu'une banale vieillesseThis ph. D dissertation is a detailed study of jean brodie, the character that gave its name to the novel. This study enables us to understand better the writer, muriel spark, in these two aspects which are most important in the art of the novelist: her assertion of her catholic belief and the capital importance to her, of another world more real than ours : the world of the eternal life. It is because jean brodie will only put forward the world of the senses in her life and in her teaching, that she will be condemned by the author. So this menopause that jean brodie wanted to transform into a legend, a myth, will only be a trivial oldage

Le sujet de l’ironie est en vogue depuis la fin du 20ème siècle où plusieurs travaux fondamentaux sont apparus. L’objectif de cette étude n’est pas de chercher une définition de l’ironie mais de déterminer s’il existe une différence entre l’ironie des écrivains-femmes et des écrivains-hommes. Pour cela, on a sélectionné quatre auteurs contemporains : Julian Barnes et David Lodge d’une part, et Muriel Spark et A. S. Byatt d’autre part. Les six oeuvres de notre corpus ont été regroupées par paires en fonction de leur proximité thématique et stylistique : Flaubert’s Parrot et Possession sont deux romans postmodernes qui traitent du thème de la quête littéraire. The Finishing School et Nice Work reprennent tous deux la trame classique du roman universitaire en la modifiant. England, England et Aiding and Abetting explorent les thèmes de l’anglicité, l’authenticité et l’artificeIn the late 20th century several fundamental works on the subject of irony were published. Today, irony remains a fashionable topic of literary research. The aim of the present study is not to propose a new definition of irony but to determine if there is a difference between the irony of women-writers and that of men-writers. Four contemporary novelists provide the corpus for this work: Julian Barnes and David Lodge on the one hand, and Muriel Spark and A. S. Byatt on the other hand. The six novels under consideration have been grouped in pairs on the ground of their stylistic and thematic similarities. Flaubert’s Parrot and Possession are both postmodern novels dealing with the topic of literary quest. The Finishing School and Nice Work are variations of the campus novel. England, England and Aiding and Abetting explore the themes of Englishness, authenticity and artifice
