Chianca, Karina. "Guillaume Apollinaire et Vinicius de Moraes : "la vie est l'art d'une rencontre"." Besançon, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004BESA1015.
Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to compare two poets, namely Guillaume Apollinaire and Vinicius de Moraes. These two authors share a similarity of forms in their lyricism. This interpretation derives from the melancholic nature of the two authors who sing a feminine presence that is lost and desired at the same time. The suffering for the loss of the object of their love is transcribed by images of a melancholic subject that wanders across the world in the search of an elusive woman that disappears like love. The analysis in this study is partially supported by a psychoanalytical approach , specially as present in the studies of Julia Kristeva on melancholy. Vinicius de Moraes read Alcools by Guillaume Apollinaire during his stay in Paris. The Brazilian poet then wrote a poem, A ponte Mirabeau which is strongly influenced by the French. The literary basis of this comparative study is made up essentially by the anthology Alcools by Apollinaire, and as far as Vinicius de Moraes is concerned by the poems written during or after his stay in Paris. Besides poetry they were also related by their involvement with other artistic forms : whether dealing with music, painting, or dance they both pursued the dream of a synthesis of art forms that would create a new reality of the love object and the world through movement and colors
Sawczuk, Magdalena. "L'orphisme. Naissance, évolution et héritage d’une avant-garde oubliée." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018SORUL093.
Full textThe notion of Orphism was born on the eve of the World War II. Forged by Guillaume Apollinaire, it served him to describe a new and bold art of his friends, especially those concentrated around Robert Delaunay. However, the notion was already troublesome back then: ill-defined and unclear, it was used by the poet in a vague way. Since then, the controversies continue to mount and in a century that elapsed since the invention of the notion, everything concerning Orphism is questioned, even its very existence. Contesting this negationist approach, we propose in this thesis to analyze the artistic production and conceptions of this period under a new light. We are distancing ourselves from the traditional labels of “-isms” and we are using the Orpheus myth – as suggested by Apollinaire – as a tool which allows us to reanalyze the art from the beginning of the 20th century. This new analysis – of artists’ career paths, their fascinations, relationships between different artistic centers and between people involved in this avant-garde – and the comparative analysis of artworks serves to prove that what we call Orphism is not an artificial concept, applied in an arbitrary manner to the somewhat accidental and independent career paths of different artists. On the contrary, Orphism is a logical and consistent evolution, whose true importance and impact was never fully appreciated. By using the Orpheus myth as a guiding thread, we are bringing to light the main lines of the evolution of Orphism: the origins and interpretation of the notion and the conception, the historical and artistic context in which the movement was born and was evolving, the relationships between its actors, artists’ inspirations and, last but not least, the stylistic evolution of Orphism over the time

Full textThe first chapter analyses the link between the artistic ideal and moving water imagery. It seems that this mobility is a live and human characteristic of art. The second chapter deals with three types of celestial metaphors, all representing the ideal, that is, the Sun, the Moon and the Milky way. The third chapter focuses on the theme of alcohol, which is a sort of "supermetaphor" of poetic distillation, encompassing all the other metaphors.
The successive examination of these varied liquid images in Alcools suggests that the poet's ideal involves a happiness based on the tranquillity originating in the "sentiment maternel" and a sense of artistic satiety.
Ito, Yoji. "Apollinaire et la lettre d'amour." Paris 3, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA030017.
Full textGuillaume Apollinaire wrote many love letters, which show not only a documentary interest, but also a literary interest. The letters to Lou and to Madeleine are particularly remarkable for their quantity as well as for their quality. Our question consists in trying to define the poetics of Apollinaire's love letters, its relation with the characters of the epistolary text and its bonds with the poetics of the literary works of this poet. First, we study the communicating function of these letters, which establish an epistolary relation between "I", sender, and "you", addressee. Then, we study the amorous discourse, which aims to communicate with the beloved, and which comprises many poetic expressions. Finally, we study the poetics, which exists not only in the epistolary poems and in the lyrical passages, but also in the prosaic passages
Delbreil, Daniel. "L'oeuvre de fiction de Guillaume Apollinaire : contes et romans : la poétique d'un hérésiaque." Paris 3, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1996PA030043.
Full textApollinaire's fiction is so large, diverse and original that it deserves a synthetic study which we have named refering to the "heresy" which is exhibited in the title of his first collection of stories. Indeed, the confrontation of truth and error, of norm and invention, of order and disorder dynamizes his fictional writing beyond the domain of religion proper. We are mainly interested in the "narrative heresy". It consists above all, for a writter who claims to be a poet, in not renoucing the narrative genre, in offering fiction works which are host to poetry and theater, and in blurring traditional landlmarks of reality and fantasy. Heresy, as a broadly constructed and metaphoric notion, also enables us to give an account of the aloofiness of the prose writer vis-a-vis the codes which the xixthh century bequeathed. Apollinaire breathes a "new spirit" into narrative techniques, into the representation of time and space. He plays ostensibly with his characters, names and portraits. Through their actions, their pursuit of power and knowledge he illustrates his own quest for identity and his anguish as a creator. Through the analysis of the main constituent elements of the fictional narrative, we propose to define the poetic of apollinaire as a prose writer and the great principle of his narrative aesthetics

Full textPoets are, by nature, the first to detect the threat which hangs over France before the beginnings of war. Consequently they cannot evade the times, and their works have to be a sincere rendering and permanent account of the collective spirit, faced with the horrors which the nation is experiencing. Without ever separating words from acts, Guillaume Apollinaire appears to be the model of the committed poet par excellence. The first chapter relates the «second birth » of a more mature, reasonable and responsible poet, who intends to link his destiny to that of his adopted country. In the second chapter the evident impact of the war on his poetry is analyzed, which draws out the nobility and the glory of the soldiers. In the last chapter, the eminent poet shows his talent by ingeniously interweaving the two opposite universes of war and femininity
Kamoun, Sélima. "Apollinaire et Paris : de la ville vécue à la ville phantasmée." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018USPCA008.
Full textGuillaume Apollinaire's encounter with Paris was a decisive event in the poet's life, both intellectually and existentially. In his artwork where Paris occupies a place of choice, the French capital does not only represent a place of life but a source of inspiration and extremely fertile writing. Although inherited from an entire literary tradition of the city that developed in the nineteenth century, Parisian apollinarian poetry is conceived on the mode of the "new spirit" that accompanies the birth of an era under the sign discovery and progress, and integrates with the aesthetic research of artistic and literary avant-gardes characterized by daring and the taste of adventure. Between tradition and invention, the Paris of Apollinaire is not only that of the "Mirabeau Bridge" and "Letter-Ocean" which, from Alcools to Calligrammes, demonstrates a desire to get rid of certain "models" and to create a poetry free of all constraints that says the "real" by borrowing the ways of the imaginary. Paris is moreover the fascinating capital of the tireless "stroller of both banks", or of the unusual, surreptitious and passionate guide; It is also the biased and cerebral city of the "melancholy watchman" confronted with his painful past, or grappling with the modern world. Paris is, finally, the dreamed and phantasmatized city of the "charmer" of the bridges and of the names of Paris
Morita, Ikuko. "Le "fonds populaire" dans la prose d'imagination de Guillaume Apollinaire." Thesis, Paris 3, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA030054.
Full textThis work is the study of the inherent elements of folk culture in Apollinaire's theatrical works and fictional prose, placing their context in time and geographical location. I examine the way he uses these elements and I try to clarify the ways in which their multiple meanings can be developped. Whether concerning words or way of life, each element from folk culture is loaded with an unexpected double or even triple meaning based on a system of collective and personal signs. Each of the poet's works creates a new universe with its own laws and particular emphasis on elements fron folk culture. My study shows the extent to which Apollinaire draws on this popular culture not only in subject matter but also in structure
Dickow, Alexander. "Le poète en personnes : Mises en scène de soi et transformations de l'écriture chez Blaise Cendrars, Guillaume Apollinaire et Max Jacob." Paris 8, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PA083353.
Full textThis dissertation examines the diversification of styles and representations of the poet in the work of three writers, Blaise Cendrars, Max Jacob and Guillaume Apollinaire. The works studied extend from 1912 to 1919, from before to immediately after World War I, when these poets would establish their careers as initiators of the post-Symbolist avant-garde. Their work exhibits proliferating and often contradictory presentations of the poet, often assigned to fictional speakers, hyperbolically self-deprecating and/or self-glorifying, and displaying disorienting shifts in style and technique. These self-presentations run counter to a crucial trend in modern and contemporary poetry, in which the figure of the poet tends to disappear. Yet self-effacement and excessive self-display both bear witness to the same questioning of the poet’s place in society and the world beyond the boundaries of art. To ask « who is speaking » in the poem entails the question of the poet’s value and legitimacy: on what grounds, from which position, with what right the poet speaks. If the poet no longer has a clear social or symbolic role, he may choose to remove himself from the poem under the pretext that his particular existence has no relevance, – but he may also exploit the indeterminacy of his status to play all the roles he desires; mage, oracle, soldier, pariah, etc. Jacob, Apollinaire et Cendrars opt for this masquerade that manifests at once an anxiety – does the poet have no more role to play? – and an aspiration: to become universal, to speak at last for all human beings – by becoming each individual in turn
Bota, Olivia-Iona. "Apollinaire ou la flânerie esthétique." Thesis, Paris 4, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA040011.
Full textAs urban phenomenon, “flânerie” appears together with socio-economic changes of the nineteenth century. Although associated with a factice wandering, it introduces a new and fragmented approach of the city. The change of perspective on the street also leads to a change of perspective on art and literature. Thus, a Balzac or a Baudelaire is particularly interested in the paradoxical and floating figure of the “flâneur”. In a possible genealogy of the concept, a special place is taken by the diverse and unclassifiable creation of Guillaume Apollinaire. The writer’s passion for “brocanteurs” and trivia as for unusual stories and exceptional characters determines literary criticism to apply him the pejorative label of “flâneur”. Based on this cliché of the critical reception, our thesis is to demonstrate that “flânerie”, for Apollinaire, defines not only a relation to space, but also a way of being and thinking. Through formal, thematic and poetic analysis of the writer’s literary and theoretical work, we plan to prove that “flânerie” is a theme, a method and a valid aesthetic principle. Without being negative, “flânerie” is rather the metaphor of a work in perpetual metamorphosis where collage, discontinuity and heterogeneity are not derogatory concepts, but true aesthetic pillars
Jacquot, Clemence. "Plasticité de l'écriture poétique d'Apollinaire : une articulation du continu et du discontinu." Thesis, Paris 4, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA040060.
Full textThis thesis aims to examine and define the stylistic evolution of Apollinaire's writing in light of the syntactic continuity and discontinuity in poetic discourse. It studies the place of discontinuity in his work, both as a haunting motif of the fragmentation and the dissolution of the poet's body through space, as well as a principle of discursive construction, by instances of juxtaposition and shortened syntax. It attempts to study the specificities and the diachronic evolution of Apollinaire by using textometry as a methodological tool (specifically the software for textual statistics: TXM). This thesis analyses several textual structures that represent Apollinaire's articulation of continuity and discontinuity: the relative subordinate clause, the effects of listing and syntactical splitting (enumerations, accumulations, juxtapositions), as well as the particular example of caligramms (a space of poetical synthesis, for instance the extension of regimes of visibility). This type of structure and organization of poetic discourse allows us to analyze the question of the plasticity of Apollinaire's writing
Gayraud, Irène. "Chants orphiques européens : Valéry, Rilke, Trakl, Apollinaire, Campana et Goll, entre mythe et poétique." Thesis, Paris 4, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA040213.
Full textThis thesis examines the meaning of the myth of Orpheus in the poetical works of six early twentieth century European poets, and the meaning of Orphic poetry within a context of modernity. Having taken into account a twofold crisis, both of the Weltanschauung – revealing that any sense, or transcendent reference, is missing – and of language (Mallarmé’s legacy), this thesis defines Orphic poetry as an attempt to re-enchant the world, in order to give new roots to the being, a new meaning to death, and a new ground to settle poetry’s ontological depth. The thesis tries to determine if such a lyricism is unique or manifold. It makes a historical mise au point from the sources of Orphism up to the twentieth century; then, it tries to describe the transformation of mythological elements into poetical principles – from which may even have issued contradictory achievements (setting back harmonious links between the world and the self; endless katabasis; dismemberment of the I; Orphic embodiment of a perfect poetry). Our thesis also tries to describe how Orphism is conveyed through music and painting: it questions the link between Orphism and the union of the arts, and studies the poet’s music-like and picture-like language, as well as some vocal or painted works (Honegger, Poulenc, Webern, Weill, Delaunay, Dufy, Klee, De Chirico). At last, as it considers myth as the settling of a new way of being-in-the-world, this thesis pictures early 20th century Orphic poetry both as the symptom and the way of a desire to get back some kind of mythical relationship to the world, in which the being, the sacred and the sayable, through the poetical song, would prove coextensive

Full textOur study of the painting in the poetry aims at analyzing the poetics of the ambivalence of two arts belonging to different artistic traditions. Especially since the poetry by its formal variety and its questioning on the being becomes a field of vast study and privileged. Our analysis limited itself to corpuses chosen, to know the works of Guillaume Apollinaire, Paul Eluard, Francis Ponge and Jean Tardieu which went alongside to painters. It is elaborated from the search for new graphic and plastic forms. Actually, the expression of the painting "in" the poetry indicates this intermediate pictorial space in the arrangement of the words of the poem and especially this intervention of the painting and the drawing in the poetry privileging the visual image in the twentieth century. This intervention allows us to encircle the problem of the poetic image made pictorial. Generally speaking, our method does not answer comparative objectives but it tries to highlight the specificity and the eclectic character of the poetry through a stylistic study of the processes of writing. This stylistic method, while insuring the insertion of the painting in the poetry of the twentieth century, examines a pictorial activity which displays in the poetic frame. It is effectively in the exchange between several arts which lives the poetic language
Lee, Yi-Pei. "La poétique du "bizarre" et de "la surprise" dans la prose d'imagination de Guillaume Apollinaire." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016USPCA040/document.
Full textGuillaume Apollinaire is undoubtedly one of the most famous French poets of the twentieth century. However, apart from being a key figure in the early avant-garde movements and the author of The Mirabeau Bridge (“Le Pont Mirabeau“) and The Song of the Ill-Beloved (“La Chanson du Mal-Aimé“), the poet played another literary role less known to the public today. In fact, the “imaginative prose” (“la prose d’imagination“)—short stories and novels—of Apollinaire was written in the spirit of “l’esprit nouveau“ and in accordance with a poetics of “surprise“ which also shaped his poetry. Being an avid reader of curiosa and other unusual texts, the prosateur Apollinaire had a predilection for heretics, rogues, maniacs, ungraceful poets and eccentric artists. He was not afraid to write about shocking or unconventional subjects while aiming for aesthetic renewal. This very distinctive fiction writing belongs probably to a certain tradition in literature, where Apollinaire and some of his works remain among the genres and the authors who devoted themselves to fantastic tales, mysteries, anticlerical stories or other subversive texts. Since worldly experience and literary enterprise are inseparable in Apollinaire’s world, it is natural to notice many signs of the writer’s curiosity and his taste for the bizarre in his private library, his journals and his magazine columns. In fact, a large number of the so-called “true falsities“ (“authentiques faussetés“)—a term invented by Apollinaire himself who, as a brilliant raconteur, excelled in mixing reality with fantasy—can actually be found in the writer’s journalistic writing. As for his work of fiction, a similar tendency for mixing also reveals itself in the fusion of different artistic and literary genres. The “imaginative prose“ shows the author’s will to invent out of some existing “frameworks“, to create a new aesthetic free of genre constraints, while remaining faithful to the principles defended by the poet Guillaume Apollinaire
Liger, Marié Fabienne. "Le moi et le monde : quête identitaire et esthétique du monde moderne dans l'oeuvre poétique de Guillaume Apollinaire, Blaise Cendrars et Vladimir Maïakovski." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014BOR30069/document.
Full textApollinaire, Cendrars et Maïakovski lived in an era of changes which initiated a new order of things, bringing about a transformation best illustrated by technical progress in the minds of these poets who glorified the new means of communication such as the train whose steady movement is the main thread of the whole poem by Cendrars Prose du transsibérien et de la petite Jehanne de France, or the plane glorified by Apollinaire in « Zone » or staged by Maïakovski in Le prolétaire Volant. Travelling became the privileged theme of this poetry consecrated to movement. Foreseeing an irreversible transformation, they were confronted with a new world that they grasped through its wretchedness, its violence and its rawness. The modern city is one of their most emblematic motives and it seems like a theatre set deserving of becoming the subject of a new poetry meant to be innovative. As the heralds of this budding modernity, they became the witnesses and even the spokepersons of wretched mankind who haunts this setting. Apollinaire and Cendrars evoke the migrants, the uprooted and stateless populations in quest for an unrealistic Eldorado whereas Maïakovski in his tragedy Vladimir Maïakovski presented a series of disabled people. If the modern world turned into a subject of observation, it is also a frame for poetic wandering. To Cendrars's thirst for travelling corresponds the problematic questioning of existence whereas Apollinaire, between tradition and modernity, opposes the malaise of the unloved one to the surrounding world. For Maiakovski's part, through heightened lyricism, he desperately seeks to struggle against a « bourgeois spirit » which ignores the misery and great changes of the world and to convince of the necessity to bring about an utter revolution. Impregnated by an acute awareness of novelty, they are caught between an old world, rejected but still present, and an uncertain worrisome future. It's within this context that the problem of the quest for the self is outlined. The poet comes up against a different and insensitive world which doesn't understand him, a world he tries to tame and shape while forging a quite fragile identity. An aesthetic of triviality poeticized in the depiction of a gritty, naked reality in an upfront way and with no hint of exaggeration is born of the poet's observation of the modern world. The beautiful is seen beside the ugly, as for Baudelaire who introduced the modern world to poetry. Thus reality experienced in a sharp way is the focus of the poet's attention and turns out to be poetry. Portraying the reality in its immediacy implies an intense and painful lyricism in which the quest turns out to be moaning, a plea and a rebellion as it questions poetry itself, its new forms and its status and role in the modern world

Full textIn the poetry and in the poetic and esthetic theories of Apollinaire, Cendrars and Reverdy, between « Pâques à New York » and « Zone » in 1912, and Le Manifeste du surréalisme by Breton in 1924, fracture determines poetic forms. Evidently connected to the abandonment of mimesis as imitation of reality, this new poetic tendency wants clean break with realism, but also rejoins the vitalist conceptions of Nietzsche and Whitman, through a new conception of poetic image and language, with a seemingly paradoxical ambition to reinvent « realism » in poetry by “bringing together distant realities” (Reverdy). Particularly the devices of “visual poetry” produce certain effects in the act of reading as an experience and experimentation both. What are the challenges of these "poetics of reality" or of this “lyricism of the real” and their place within modern poetry in general ? These experiences and experiments of the poetry, characterized by fracture of forms, and usage of “raw” fragments, elements of reality, are studied here with a phenomenological approach, but from an essentially aesthetic point of view. The merit of the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty is that it highlights the corporal aspects of perception, and it’s exactly in that sense that all these experiments represent poetic strategies of immersing the reader in the aesthetic experience and devices of corporeal reception which tends to be more « instinctive », even « pre-linguistic », and according to the expression of Merleau-Ponty, « pre-objective », thus concerning also the invention of language, and poetry as “parole parlante”

Full textWhether they write against, with or despite tradition, a certain part of the poetic modernity sees the dialogue with tradition as a fundamental aesthetic principle, which this thesis aims at demonstrating through an intertextual approach of works by Lautréamont, Rimbaud, Apollinaire, Ponge, Deguy and Jude Stefan. The first book views two rhetorical approaches on subversion. "Les Chants de Maldoror" methodically deconstruct the epic- deconstruction of the rules of the proem, rupture of the epic web with the intrusion of parasitical sub-genres, hybridization of the genre degenerating into serial story-. In Rimbaud's work, the aesthetics inaugural to the cento builds up to a crisis on imitation practices, then underlined by the violently parodic treatment of the Parnassian and Verlaine intertexts. Through the practice of the "autocento" and the autopastiche, "Illuminations" puts this permanent process of eradication to an end. Conversely, the second book focuses on two poetics of reinscribing. The subtle engraving of the generic memory, the complete fabrication of an utterly intertextual lyrical subject, the interplay between the modern and the ancient in his interdiscourse poems express. Apollinaire' concern to invent a "new lyrism" tied to heritage. As for Ponge, his work on the great foundation stones of tradition (Lucrèce, Malherbe, Littré) is seen as the necessary condition of the accession to an objective way of writing, both "desaffublée" and "autogenous". The third book analyses two recycling ventures. With the cultural collapse as a background, Deguy goes as far as risking a poetics on the debasing conservation by putting simonist trafficking of discourse and metadiscourse into general use. By Stéfan's standards, the poem becomes a potlatch of books ironically recycling the "rotten skin" of poetry into a poetics of crossbreeding and embezzlement

Full textThe poem collection Le Bestiaire or Cortège d’Orphée (1911) by Apollinaire still attracts vocal composers of our time. Drawing on ancestral traditions, the setting to music of short poems about animals guided by Orpheus constitutes an inestimable “zoo” for musicians. Did Apollinaire imagine an exploration of this type? Are these musical creations, from Le Bestiaire onward, posthumously, homages to Apollinaire? From the most famous of animal cycles by Poulenc and Durey (1919), to that of Régis Campo (2008), as well as the collections of Claude Ballif and Robert Caby (1945) , each version gives rise to a specific reingagement with the poems. In this diachronic study from 1919 to 2008, the compositions in question are analyzed in their context and examined through the plurality of musical languages that they employ. In addition to Poulenc and Durey, here, in chronological order, are the other composers discussed: Yves Nat (Dans vos viviers, dans vos étangs, 1943); Claude Ballif (Le Cortège d’Orphée, op. 1b, 1945-1948); Robert Caby (Cycle of seven songs, 1945-1948); Robert Cornman (Le Bestiaire Alpha, 1961-1963, Le Bestiaire Bêta, 1972); Jean Absil (Bestiaire, op. 58, 1964); Lionel Daunais (Le Bestiaire, 1978); more recent, May Breguet (Bestiaire, 1982); Alain Corbellari (Bestiaire bis, 1991); Rachel Laurin (Bestiaire, op. 22, 1992); and, finally, John Carbon (Bestiaire, 2002) and Régis Campo (Le Bestiaire, 2008)

Full textWhy present a thesis on Rabelais in 2012? Clearly, at first sight, we no longer need to showcase a writer who has undoubtedly earned his place in our Pantheon as one of the "fathers" of French literature. Yet, our whole thesis is based on the premise that there is a pressing need to revitalise Rabelais in our literary consciousness. Readers neglect his work – often led to believe that it is unintelligible or outdated – and the trend in the most stimulating of critical studies is to reject Rabelais and his era into the non-literary sphere. This is what the rare studies of how the writer was received show : they suggest that, aside from a series of one-off replications or substandard imitations, the author is not really a source of inspiration to modern writers – his legacy has come up against "misunderstanding" and has even bafflingly been "distorted". In short, in our modern age, Rabelais' work is insidiously identified as part of our heritage, rather than literary matter or a subject for literary study capable of inspiring critics and writers. If, in 2012, against our better judgment, we are tempted to concur with Céline's bitter conclusions: that Rabelais "failed in his design ". What should we do about it? The aim of our thesis on the "sons of Rabelais" is to challenge this damming conclusion, by considering successively Nerval’ and Apollinaire’ cases. Through a rehabilitation of the notion of a literary descendant or “son”, we will show that there is a clear thread between Rabelais and modern literature, and that in the 21st century, his work can still, and always still, succeed in attracting debate and discussion – inspiring fresh critical thought. Keywords : Rabelais – Nerval – Apollinaire – filiation – reception – posterity – analogy – manner

Full textThis study focuses on the concept fo theatre, as developed by Alberto Savinio since his first theatrical play written in French ("Les Chants de la mi-mort"). The study will, first, highlight the influence of Apollinaire on the work of Savinio and, then, will stress the importance of Pirandello, who can be considered his master on the theatrical subject. "Capitanon Ulisse" and "Alcesti di Samuele" représent the higthest form of his theatrical expression to suche and extent that these two pièces can be considéred as interlinked in an ideal metaphysical diptych. In both plays, Savinio tackles the concept of regeneration of the tragedy : similarly to the story of "Capitano Ulisse", were the adventures of the Homeric hero are reinterpreted, the figure of Alcesti appears anew in the story of Mrs Goerz, an Jewish woman who lives during the period of national socialism. Savinio's work, which is the result of a collection of short stories ("Il suo nome", "La famiglia Mastinu") will be characterised by a revisitation of meta-theatrical factors, which were already present in previous pièces. In "Emma B, vedova Giocasta", Savinio chooses a lighter option : the one act play. This choix leads to a condensation of dramaturgy, since it is composed of one pièce and of one single feverish waiting movement of the main character

Full textSummary : Successive breaking-ups of the oxymoron-subject in Apollinaire from 1907-1908 onwards lead to a stable semiotic definition of the I-as-Poet. The crisis of poetry is taken charge of by this definition that may undergo allotopic returns (scissions) or be projected towards its spatial and calligrammatic opening up. In Huidobro's work, the tmesis-subject responds with a progressively euphemised strategy of disjunction in 1917-1918. In the structure of tmesis, we spot a passage announced by several symptoms (refraction, ostranenie, the theme of clocks) which reread the Apollinarian crisis by acknowledging the absence of a poetic present. Hence the need to deploy an implicit narration of the myth of the poet, dynamised by massive use of quotations from Apollinaire. Altazor redefines this narrative nourished by a post-biblical or “Altazorian” culture, a dialogue with the avant-gardes and oxymoric resurgences from Apollinaire. A parallel between Huidobro and Reverdy from 1915 to 1918 allows us to detect both the specificity of this Huidobrian myth and its continuity with the literary past, while a comparison with Dada and Surrealism (in the 20s) situates it on the background of questions of legitimacy diversely oriented on conflictive pragmatic axes. The representation of the subject as a dual sign reveals its several areas of oscillation (historical, aesthetic and cultural) and confirms in the poetic scripture of the war the wholistic and mediating goal of the oxymoric system, as opposed to the tmesis-subject obliged to re-balance the crisis from a figural and cultural point of view

Full textOvid's work was and always will be an inexhaustible source of inspiration for French writers and artists and Europeans generally. Since the Middle ages and the years of the late romanticism, poets, painters and musicians constantly refer to ideas from Ovid's "Metamorphoses" and the "Ars Amatoria". .

Full textThe study of the sayings of soldiers, of La Jeune Parque by Paul Valéry, and Calligrammes by Guillaume Apollinaire demonstrates a variety of psychic functions during the First World War. The readings use the tools of the intelligibility of collective psychology put forward by Freud. Collected by Gaston Esnault, Le poilu tel qu'il se parle reveals the creative ways in which ordinary soldiers contrived to bear and denounce the war. The regime of terror imposed did not stop the troops functioning, wherever possible, in democratic collectives. The realism, the decency of certain sayings testifies to this, despite the horror and distress the troops experienced. Certain sayings remain coarse and constitute a compromise between violence and its denunciation by humour. Paul Valéry participated in the patriotic ideology : La Jeune Parque presented a mirror to the dominant social classes. Collective censorship has refused to see the presence of the war in this poem. Certain words, implicit images, sometimes clues reveal Valéry's subjection to the collective dominant regime. The reading of verses in light of events clarifies obscure phrases. The classical frame of reference masks the contemporary war. In Calligrammes, Apollinaire tells his readers of his melancholy, already present even before his engagement in the war, and which has been amplified proportionately by his participation in the war, coming back wounded, then disengaging himself from collective identifications. A close reading of the poem Il y a reveals its function in the collection : a 'calligramme' born of the war and addressed to the beloved, featuring the horror and anguish of the war. Apollinaire denounces collective censorship. Everyday language offers its speakers, even in wartime, the possibility of functioning in a democratic process
