Full textThis dissertation examines the relationship between the representation of bodies in Alice Munro’s work and the imprint process as characterized by Georges Didi-Huberman. The description of the characters’ bodies gives evidence of the same dialectical essence as imprints: it attempts to fix the body matter while making movement visible, it is the product of a contact but becomes apparent only from a distance and its unicity foreshadows its multiplicity. The body and its link to the world around also displays a relationship of resemblance and contact based on reciprocity. It is conveyed through words and an expression that tends to lyricism. Finally, bodies represented in Munro’s fiction are not mere copies of the real but are creative and interpersonal as they become the very material of artistic creation. This study of the representation of bodies in Alice Munro’s work attempts to show what being attentive to bodies entails, in particular in the context of care studies, and how this attention to bodies influences fictional writing

Full textMy research aims at studying the Nord-American short story in relation to a form to which it is inextricably linked, the short story cycle, which, halfway between history and novel, is set as a series of interconnected stories presenting some recurring elements (characters, place, themes). The reflection on the short story cycle will give priority to the analysis of Alice Munro's work placed in a comparative perspective, in relation and continuity, not only with the work of 'Canadian writers' masters' of the genre, but also with the tradition of the American short story cycle
Il presente lavoro si propone di analizzare la forma narrativa del ciclo di racconti, mettendone in luce le caratteristiche in relazione all’opera di Alice Munro. Il corpus narrativo di Munro, formato da quattordici raccolte in un arco temporale che copre più di quarant’anni (la prima raccolta, Dance of the Happy Shades esce ne 1968 e l’ultima, Dear Life nel 2012), ben si presta a questo tipo di studio. Nell’ arco della sua prolifica opera Munro ha esplorato le potenzialità della forma breve, rimodulando progressivamente i confini fra i generi, scomponendone le prospettive e gli esiti possibili ora nella direzione della novella modernista (cara a scrittrici come Katherine Mansfield ed Eudora Welty), ora nella creazione di cicli di storie o di serie di racconti interconnessi, destrutturando o risemantizzando la nozione di brevità e di genere letterario. Il lavoro, che si presenta come un case study, si propone un duplice obiettivo: quello di estendere la nozione di ciclo di racconti e di includerla in quella di “politesto” , (ossia quella categoria critica che concepisce l’opera letteraria, la raccolta di racconti ad esempio, come processo aggregativo mettendo in luce tutti quei legami intertestuali e intratestuali che i singoli testi intrattengono fra di loro) e quello di applicare questa categoria all’opera di Alice Munro, ovvero studiare, con gli strumenti della teoria della letteratura e della comparatistica, i rapporti tra i racconti, nella loro natura intra ed intertestuale, e tra le raccolte stesse analizzate sulla base della loro natura politestuale

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo principal analisar, sob o ponto de vista da narratologia, três contos: “The Peace of Utrecht”, “Meneseteung” e “Fiction”, presentes, respectivamente, nas coletâneas Dance of the Happy Shades (1968), Friend of my Youth (1991) e Too Much Happiness (2009), da escritora canadense contemporânea Alice Munro, vencedora do Prêmio Nobel de Literatura em 2013, cujos contos, elaborados de forma renovada, são caracterizados pelos finais em aberto, contém descrições realistas do sudoeste de Ontário, retratam cenas familiares que facilitam a introdução do estranho, do misterioso, do desconhecido e até fantástico. Esta união, do familiar e do estranho, cria um senso de ironia e duplicidade de observação em relação a lugares e às pessoas, permitindo que se explore a luta canadense com a identidade evidenciada na escritora. A ambivalência que Munro sente como escritora é uma de suas preocupações pessoais que contribuem para essa profundidade emocional e vivacidade em sua ficção. Algumas de suas melhores histórias expressam sentimentos que provocam questionamentos em qualquer leitor mais sensível e que são, ao mesmo tempo, explorações e descobertas da própria emoção da autora. Para o desenvolvimento deste estudo, apoiamo-nos nas reflexões de Osman Lins, Bachelard, Ozíris Borges Silva no que diz respeito à espacialização da narrativa, como também em estudos de Bakhtin que explora a ideia de cronotopo. Também constitui objetivo identificar os momentos de epifania e os elementos góticos que atuam na configuração das personagens de Munro.
The main goal of this paper is to analyse, from the point of view of narratology, three short stories: “The Peace of Utrecht”, “Meneseteung” and “Fiction”, present, respectively, in the collections Dance of the Happy Shades (1968), Friend of my Youth (1991) and Too Much Happiness (2009), from the contemporary Canadian writer Alice Munro, winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature, whose short stories, elaborated in a renewed way, are characterized by open ends, have realistic descriptions of southwest Ontario, depict familiar scenes that facilitate the introduction of the strange, the mysterious, the unknown and even the fantastic. This connection of the familiar and the strange, creates a sense of irony and duplicity in observation concerning places and people, allowing that the Canadian fight for identity is evidenced. The ambivalence Munro feels as a writer is one of her personal concerns that contribute to emotional and vivacious depth in her fiction. Some of her best stories show feelings that raise a lot of questions in any sensitive reader and that are, at the same time, the writer´s explorations and discoveries. To the development of this study, we will base our reflections in Osman Lins, Bachelard and Ozíris Borges Silva concerning narrative space as well as Bakhtin that explores the idea of cronotopos. It is also the aim of the paper to identify the epiphanic moments and the gothic elements that act in the description of Munro´s characters.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo demonstrar que o ponto central unificador dos contos Chaddeleys and Flemings e The Moons of Jupiter, do volume The Moons of Jupiter, de Alice Munro, é o uso das associações que ligam o retorno ao passado através da narrativa de uma protagonista adulta, que reconta alguns fatos ocorridos em sua infância e em sua vida familiar. Nesta trajetória, o que é revelado é o conflito feminino na busca por outros papeis além de esposa e mãe. As estratégias narrativas usadas pela autora canadense para obter este resultado estão fundamentadas no uso da memória por suas personagens. Para demonstrar como isso funciona no texto de Munro, os estudos freudianos são utilizados na análise, enfatizando o trabalho e a força do inconsciente manifesta no exercício de anamnese da protagonista-narradora.
This thesis aims to demonstrate that the unifying central point of the short stories Chaddeleys and Flemings and The Moons of Jupiter, from the volume The Moons of Jupiter, by Alice Munro, is the use of associations that link the return to the past through the narrative of the adult protagonist, who retells some facts occurred in childhood and those related to family life. In this trajectory, what is revealed is the women's conflict by seeking other roles than that of wife and mother. The narrative strategies used by the Canadian author to achieve this result are founded in the use of memory by her characters. To show how that works in Munro's text, Freudian studies are used in the analysis, emphasizing the work of the unconscious force manifested in the exercise of anamnesis of the protagonist-narrator.
