Omure, Kazue. "Étude d'une nouvelle de Balzac, "Gobseck"." Paris 4, 1987. http://www.theses.fr/1987PA040147.
Full text"Gobseck" is the Balzac's novel for a thesis; Gobseck is the usurer of the "Comédie humaine" to be studied thoroughly. The purpose of the first chapter of our thesis is to demonstrate not only how the author produced, for the first time in 1830, this central personage and this small masterpiece which influenced the other works, but also how he developed them to reach the perfection of their last state in 1842. The second chapter is designed for the intensive study of the natural shape of the avaricious hero: Gobseck is "l'or personnifié" as well as "l'insatiable boa". Then, we passed to the third chapter to report on our analysis of each colleague of Gobseck. The result of this study is that all of the usurers of the "Comédie humaine" take after, more or less, Gobseck. We discovered that Balzac decomposed the image of Gobseck, after the description of his death, and used the fragments for the construction of the others usurers. The supplementary chapter is reserved for the research of the sources of two fireplaces described in the novel

Full text"What is the talent of the 'Conteur', if not that of all talents combined ?" writes Philarète Chasles in his forward to Romans et contes philosophiques published in 1831. Although Balzac is best known as a novelist, he himself greatly admired the genre known as the "conte". Balzac traced a great deal of his own literary identity to the "grands conteurs" he considered his patrons such as Boccaccio, Rabelais, La Fontaine, Sterne and "the anonymous authors of The Arabian Nights". If in La DerniŠre Fee and Contes drolatiques Balzac confronts the traditions of this genre, his Romans et contes philosphiques, Contes bruns and Nouveux Contes philosohpiques represent instead an attempt to reform the "conte" in his own style. This thesis re-examines the "conte" as it was written in the first decades of the 19th century and traces the course of Balzac's literary development vis a vis this genre from his "youthful period" until the first years of the 1830s. Through a survey of books and literary magazines, I give a bibliographic survey of various "contes" published during this time. I also examine the daily work and life of Balzac during these years : a time not only of immense popularity for the "conte" within literary circles, but also one of changing socio-economic conditions for writers in general. Balzac envisaged the "conte" not as fixed genre, but as one of great flexibility and iridescence capable of accommodating a variety of styles, tones, and themes. Through his close identification with this genre, Balzac styled himself above all as a "conteur", an identity which this thesis traces from its earliest formulations until its precocious dissolution near the end of 1832

Full textTheatricality is frequently mentioned as an effect produced on the reader by the novel. However, the notion remains generally imprecise and consequently hardly operative. A study of theatricality from the perspective of a historical poetics of literary genres is necessary to explain its mode of appearance and its properties in Balzac and Stendhal’s novels. Therefore, this work aims to highlight what the notion meant since Aristotle’s Poetics. We will explain first how the idea of a theatrical effect independent from the dramatic mode appeared in the nineteenth century, and, secondly, why the promotion of the novelistic genre implied a link with drama. This analysis emphasizes a few features operating as theatricality markers, which allows to study how these features, combined together, contribute to produce a theatrical effect in the context of novelistic scenes. It appears that the theatricality effect is based upon the narrative speech which produces the dialogue as on a stage. The variety of the features used by Stendhal or Balzac allows to enlighten the differences that characterize the aesthetics of each novelist. Finally, the adoption of a dramatic pattern by the novel is closely linked to hermeneutic and pragmatic perspectives : by informing the universe represented in the novel, this pattern gives information to the reader about the rules that govern society ; by regulating the connection between the reader and the fiction, it enables to correlate emotional paroxysm with critical distance

Full textThis work offers a compared history of literature and sociology in France between 1820 and 1860. During that period, the notion of type appears in the literary and sociological descriptions of social reality, and becomes more and more central in the apprehension of the differenciations among classes, communities or groups. Based on the analysis of Honoré Balzac's La Comédie humaine and Frédéric Le Play's Les Ouvriers européens, this study shows that these two series of novels and of workers' monographies put typification at the center of their descriptive ambition. More broadly, it proposes a history of the uses of a typological imagination and of the ontologies, above all social, that were underlying them. That is why the texts also taken into account in this study range from natural history, medical sciences, history, chemistry geology and metallurgy, to the sentimental novel, the historical novel and the panoramic literature, as well as social inquiries and statistics

Full textThe present study addresses the multifaceted relationships between Balzac and the French literary 17th century. It consists of three parts: first, an analysis of Balzac’s own memorial selection of 17th-century political and literary events, followed by a detailed exploration of the variety of modes of attendance, practices and functions assumed by the “Grand Siècle” in La Comédie humaine, and finally of an evaluation of the range and consequences of the development of moralist-type thinking within prose narrative fiction. First, this research work allows for a renewed questioning of some foundations of Balzacian poetics. Secondly, the different methods of reception of the 17th century in the novel cycle built by Balzac between 1829 and 1850 highlight new reading circulations of La Comédie humaine by means of specific network-type textual devices. And finally, this study shows the permanence of problems linked with the development of the genre of the novel from the 17th to the 19th century. Hence, it invites to a revision of some deep-rooted prejudice of literary history, as much about Balzac than against the “classical Grand Siècle”

Full textWriting history by depending on the literature may seem surprising. Thus history can be seen as a human science its purpose is the study of the past, while the literature book written within a culture, age and gender. So we can say that the literature can serve as a literary source as well as any other historical document. Consequently, I do not find its difficult to select some literary works that serve my research and help me to describe the bourgeois community at that time as correct as possible. The study is divided into four parts. The first part is examining the bourgeois community, during the Restoration and the July Monarchy, according to Balzac's Father Goriot. In the second part of the thesis, i discussed the bourgeois community during the Second French Empire through the works of of Georges Feydeau and those of Zola. The third part is entitled « bourgeois community at the beginning of First World War as seen by Roger Martin du Gard. » and the last part of the thesis deals with the French bourgeois community between the two major wars according to the autobiography of Simone de Beauvoir « Memoirs of a willful Daughter ».

Full textThe idea of mise-en-abyme in an artistic work - whether formulated by the first German Romantics or, in a different way, by the French Romantics - gained momentum at the end of the eighteenth century and during the nineteenth century. However, paradoxically, its metatextuality did not weaken when Realist aesthetics were imposed later in the nineteenth century. The metadiscourse does not interrupt the fictional immersion, as it does in parodic novels and their avatars, but it remains, albeit in new forms that are incorporated into the fiction. Balzac embodies this trend. In this sense, we support the idea that Balzac was one of the first to transpose into a Realist contract what parodic and eccentric novelists did before him or during his time. Moreover, he assigns a reflexive purpose to the category of the novel, making a specific pact with the reader. The prologue to my thesis notes the inadequacies of the prefatory discourse on the subject of the novel. But an intentional Balzacian reflexivity is palpable through an exhaustive study of the poetic lexicon, in the first part of the thesis. The years 1839 to 1844 appear as the culmination of a meditation on the novel and as a moment when metacritical vocabulary from prefatory discourse moves towards fictional intrigues. The analysis of fictionalizations, which is the subject of the second part, supposes, then, an enrichment of the debate on the novel. The third part observes a crucial shift : Balzac no longer narratizes both the novel's hold over the reader and its reflexive power. The novel thus emancipates the reader, bringing him or her into the metatextual pact
