Abstract:
Le personnage romanesque ne peut etre considere comme un a priori, il est le produit d'une construction textuelle. Dans les six premieres oeuvres de hohn barth, la construction du personnage s'effectue selon divers parametres: le nom propre, une classe d'objets a la fois propres et exterieurs au personnage: le masque, le role, l'autre qu'il s'agisse d'un autre personnage, contraire et complementaire, ou du personnage lui-meme considere comme un autre a atteindre au bout d'un voyage entrepris sur l'eau. Le nom propre, souvent objet d'une quete, est double ou multiple, dans tous les cas, fuyant.

Le paradoxe des écrivains américains est qu'en établissant une identité pour le personnage, ils lui dessinent un contour qui est une limite à ses possibilités de comportement.

Cela se révèle particulièrement vrai chez John Barth et Kurt Vonnegut, dont l'oeuvre est analysée ici à travers deux de leurs romans.

CHAPTER 1: This chapter sketches the major outlines of Karl Barth's theology of the powers. My account is structured by the three texts in which the powers are most explicitly discussed. Of particular importance here is the correspondence between God's justifying work and the powers' 'angelic' vocation of serving human history, and the ontologically impossible yet devastatingly real 'demonization' of the powers' own being-in-Christ. Finally, the key claim is developed that all earthly or human-historical power actively corresponds, for Barth, to either the 'heavenly-angelic' attestation of God

Abstract:
This thesis is a comparative investigation into the nature of justification according to John Calvin and Karl Barth. It traces the conceptual roots of both systems respectively, and follows their ramifications as well. Calvin's system seems to stem primarily from: 1) an administration of justice and atonement derived from his understanding of the Hebrew cult with its various rituals and customs, and 2) the motif of spiritual union with the risen Christ. Justification addresses human guilt as it has its universally objective basis in the atonement itself, while its actuality is fulfilled in one

Developments in biblical studies, neurosciences, and Christian philosophy of mind force theologians reconsider the traditional concept of the immortal soul.

A more holistic approach to the ontology of the human beings is required.

Abstract:
A search for self through historical reconstruction constitutes a crucial concern of the American postmodern historical novels of Pynchon, Barth, Mailer, Coover, and Doctorow. This concern consists of a self-conscious dramatization, paralleled by contemporary theorists' arguments, of the constructedness of history and individual subject. A historian-character's process of historical inquiry and narrative-making foregrounded in these novels represents the efforts by the postmodern self to (re)construct identity (or identities) in a constructing context of discourse and ideology.
