Full textThe study of our corpus is about the gallaïco-portuguese songs of love and friend dated from the late twelfth to the mid-fourteenth century. The problem is to determine what dialectic maintain the troubadour and the feminine face through the two lyric genres in the context of love and eroticism. Their loving relationship is based on a dialectic either Platonic or Hegelian, depending on the lyric genre, the theme of love and eroticism, their social class, the reference to real and imaginary loving stories of the period, but also of the material, the shape, the origin and the source of influence of the song. The glance carried towards the woman in the iberian medieval society was under the influence of a double speech maintained by the Thinkers of the Church which consisted, on one hand to minimize the importance of woman in making responsible original sin and on the other hand to associate her a maternal image and Marian quite at the same time. In front of this vision, the troubadour intends to design a new image of woman in his lyrical compositions, according to two models of representation. At first, he describes an abstract and inaccessible feminine face in a space and sacred time through an erotic paint in the love. This face is similar to that of the Lady of the court, the countess of Tripoli or the Virgin Mary. But also, near him, he depicts her in loving narratives corresponding to the profane world and to the historic and social reality, as a young woman married or single, belonging either to the nobility, the middle-class, or the peasantry
Cantalupi, Cecilia. "Une nouvelle édition critique du troubadour Guilhem Figueira." Thesis, Paris Sciences et Lettres (ComUE), 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PSLEP015.
Full textThe thesis proposes a new critical edition of the lyric production by Guilhem Figueira (BdT 217), who was born in Toulouse and active during the first half of the XIIIth century, mainly in Northern Italy. Figueira’s corpus is representative of the historical and cultural climate in Toulouse during the Albigensian crusade; he was himself a protagonist of the diaspora of poets and intellectuals and a member of an ideal circle of Friderician troubadours. He left a love song, two sirventes against the papacy and the false clergy, two sirventes for Frederic II and two crusade songs. He also exchanged two coblas and one tenson with Aimeric de Peguilhan (BdT 10). In comparison with the critical edition by Emil Levy (1880), we have included an anonymous cobla esparsa against Sordel (BdT 437), preserved by the chansonnier P; on the other hand, we have decided not to accept two other poems assigned to him by a2. The thesis opens with a study of the tradition, which today includes five new witnesses, with an update of the bibliography; we have provided a study of themes, metric and language of Figueira, an Italian translation and a punctual commentary of the poems; a complete glossary and two appendices (the edition of sirventes BdT 217.4a, which we considered inauthentic but helpful to the correct interpretation of another poem; and the first results of a research on Emil Levy editor of troubadours, with the edition of nine letters he sent to Ernesto Monaci between 1879 and 1887 that we have found in Rome)
Seláf, Levente. "La Chanson pieuse vernaculaire au Moyen Age : Essai de contextualisation." Paris 4, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA040015.
Full textThis thesis examines the entire corpus of French, Occitan and Galician religious poetry composed by the troubadours and the trouvères from the 12th to 14th century. Critics, past and present, have largely ignored these poems and considered them poetically poor and uninteresting. Although, the poetry of the troubadours has for the last two decades been a popular object of intertextual analyses, both for the writing and for the interpretation of medieval poetry, religious poetry fails to get the attention it deserves. Through careful analysis, inventory, and comparison of the poems, and by combining different critical positions, I demarcate the corpus, and conceptualise the problems that this poetry presents. To contribute to the accessibility and "readability" of Early Medieval poetry, I try to propose a definition of Lyrical Poetry in its integrity
Blanc, Hélène. "La chanson soviétique contemporaine : thématique et société." INALCO, 1989. http://www.theses.fr/1989INAL0002.
Full textThis thesis is a study of the Soviet social life of today as reflected through song for song is a social mirror. It addresses the complex relationship between creators and political powers. It is an anthology of the main songs of the XXth century and of their topics. On a deeper level, it deals with the three great components of modern-day Soviet song : variety song ("mass song" called "the estrade"), poetic songs (the songs of the "bards" : Okoudjava, Vissotski, Galitch and Veronika Dolina, a new comer) and the soviet rock. The analyzes are based mostly on the Soviet and French press. All the songs have been researched and translated. Many of which have never been published nor recorded. Much of their significance lies hidden in the unsaid. This investigation led to a better understanding of the uniqueness of the social life and the soul of the Soviet people

Full textAnalysing the representation of unconventional figures allows a better understanding of the paradox which surrounds the reception of the regarded works. Indeed, songs succeed in creating a federative and efficient message by inviting people to whom the audience shouldn't normally identify with. The three parts of the present work - dedicated to sexual marginality, criminality and insanity- ask the question through a series of stylistic analyses of songs, considered from the reception point of view. These analyses allow an approach of the complex relationships which link a society to the songs she creates. These relationships, in constant evolution, are particularly relevant within the years following 1968, a period whose economic and ideological changes are still acting upon our common imaginative world
Häfele, Sibylle. "La proposition concessive en ancien occitan: la poésie des troubadours." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA040109.
Full textThis analysis aims to show the possibilities of concessive expression in the poetry of the troubadours of the 12th and 13th century. Initially a figure of speech, this expression becomes a grammatical notion from the beginning of the 17th century. During the 19th century the grammarians describe it as a clause hindering an action that will yet occur. When the Latin concessive conjunctions disappeared, the arising Romanic languages have to recreate new grammatical forms in order to fill in the gap. Concessive conjunctions are already represented in the oldest Provençal writings of the 11th century, Le Boecis and La Chanson de Sainte Foy. In the beginning of the 12th century, Guilhem d'Aquitaine, the first troubadour to be known, also used concessive structures in his poetry. The 2,806 poems of the 461 poets offer a great diversity of paratactic and hypotactic structures coexisting in the poetry. Except for the indefinite relatives that also appear in stereotyped expressions and other conjunctions, the two most important terms are “si tot” and “si be” with their syntactical characteristics like first position, integration and post position in relation to the main clause. Furthermore, the study of Provençal manuscripts reveals a syntactical symmetry between concessive terms and their variants and thus confirms the idea of a relationship among manuscripts. Finally, the frequent use of concessive clauses in Provençal poetry can probably be explained by the “fin'amor” that conveys the opposition between two realities as the impossible love between poet and lady

Full textThis work presents a period in Thailand's history through the study of three different literary genres, poetry, song and short story. The 1970's were marked by an unusual instability and socio-political commitment. Students assembled to fight against the military government's authority, against the American presence and the Japanese economic invasion, defending manpower, peasants and factory workers. Their actions, backed up by the population, would lead to the big march of October 1973 and to the departure of the dictators. The three years period, which followed, was more democratic, though in October 1973 it would be severely interrupted by the return of the military to power. The first part of this work presents Thailand's literature from its origins to the XIII century; the second part depicts Thai society during the 1970's, from a social and historical perspective. The third and last part of this study presents extracts of poetry, songs and short stories from the 1970's. The texts are characterised by a great sincerity, revealing the society's hope for a greater justice. These works describe the people's difficult condition, they try to find and suggest solutions, calling for mobilisation and resistance. They aim to awaken the social conscience of oppressed and resigned people, resigned because of religious beliefs and because they are educated in the tradition that shows respect towards the king and the leaders. These writings, poetry, songs and short stories, which have not been enough to initiate a deep change, however, do bare passionate witness to this era
Edel, Pierre. ""Gaufrey" : édition et étude littéraire." Nancy 2, 2003. http://docnum.univ-lorraine.fr/public/BUL_T_2003_0016_EDEL_1.pdf.
Full text"Gaufrey" is a 10746 alexandrines epic poem whose single manuscript, dated from the second half of the fourteenth century, is preserved at the Montpellier Ecole de Médicine Library. It is part of a group of seven poems from the Rebel Barons cycle, " Gaufrey " following " Doon de Maience " and preceeding " Ogier le Danois ". The study of the language reveals a chief characteristic of Picardy. The study of the characters searches the connections between the poem and those who preceeded it. Epic, supernatural and romance are combined in this late epic poem without any " decadence ". Gaurfey is the oldest of the twelve sons of Doon de Maience, and the father of Ogier ; with the oldet son of Garin de Monglane, Hernaut de Biaulande, he has to rescue his father, Doon, and Garin captured by the Saracens. Grifon, the traitor and Gaufrey's brother, is presented as Ganelon's father. He slanders his brother near Charlemagne. But the two genuine heroes are on the one hand Robastre, on the other hand a young saracen woman, Flordespine, whose tricks will animate the action
Le, Rider Mathias. "La chanson française au début du XVe siècle : étude sur la structure et la transmission d'un répertoire homogène et protéiforme." Strasbourg, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009STRA1035.
Full textOur study is based on an homogeneous corpus of French songs composed between circa 1400 and 1425. The repertory taken into account appears in the earliest gatherings (V-VIII) of the famous manuscript Oxford bod. 213. On stylistic criteria, we selected 82 compositions, which share many of the characteristics, especially structural, emphasized through our analyses of songs ascribed to Richard Loqueville and Pierre Fontaine. These two composers show, in their respective work, an impressive stylistic coherence and a remarkable control of certain idioms which could be interpreted as “recurring and stereotyped formulas”. Thus, they can be regarded as perfect representatives of the musical aesthetic commonly called the “new style”. The first part of our study shows many structural characteristics and proposes a functional interpretation of certain rhythmic “formulas” which are systematically employed within the studied songs. It mainly discusses the homogeneity of the repertory. The second part of the study underlines more specifically the “inconsistent” aspect of the studied works and show that many of the rhythmic and melodic “formulas” are interchangeable. We propose many assumptions related to the transmission of the repertory and to the influence of the scribes in this process. The second part is mainly exemplified by songs ascribed to Briquet, Johannes Cesaris and by anonymous songs. All the studied songs are accessible as transcriptions in the appendices of our study
Imbe, Jacob. "Sova : Poésie orale traditionnelle du peuple Tsimihety." INALCO, 1990. http://www.theses.fr/1990INAL0006.
Full textThis study is a literary reflexion about the oral genre "Tsimihety sova". The sova is above all a Tsimihety popular song. A traditional song, reshaped every time to reply to expectation of the public at full evolution. The oral poet Mpisova sings at the time the life, the nature, the society, god and the universe. But this is a song destined to produce the "marvellous" in everything moreover simple, and to demystify everything that appears the most extraordinary. It is also a song of love where the woman is desired, loved and venerated. So the sova is a song, a poetry reached at his supreme expression where talk and dance merge in perfect harmony. If the first sense of the word sova is sun, extraordinary light, it means also dance, marvellous song and poetry
Grandemange, Thierry. "Les chansons d'Arnold et Hugo de Lantins." Thesis, Tours, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008TOUR2019/document.
Full textArnold and Hugo de Lantins, two Franco-Flemish composers florishing between 1420 and 1430, have left us a set of thirsty-two songs, three of which are from doubtful ascription. As neither historical documents nor paleographical data can helps to credit one or the other composer with those three songs, an attempt for an ascription will only rest on stylistic criteria. The analysis firstly rests on the assertion of the organisation of the voices in an independent duet to which a secondary contratenor is added, and secondly, on the distinction between simple and florid counterpoint. On the basis of rules stated by theoreticians, it is possible to reach the level of simple counterpoint by means of successive reductions. It is only in a second phase that the elements of florid counterpoint - which make up style so to speak - are dealt with : rhythmic, harmonic and melodic elements, as well as imitation to which a chapter is devoted. The relation between the poetical and musical structures rests on Graeme Boone's prosodic pattern. This pattern allows us to show how poetical articulations are arranged in relation to musical articulations, particularly in the context of entries in imitation. What emerges is that both songs "Chanter ne scay" and "Mon doulx espoir" are very close on a stylistic level and attributable to Hugo de Lantins, whereas the data for "Ung seul confort" are more difficult to interpret. An extension of the method suggests new ascriptions for the anonymous songs of fascicule III of the Oxford manuscript, and confirms some other ascriptions once questioned by scholars
Level, Brigitte. "À travers deux siècles, 1726-1939 : le Caveau, société bachique et chantante." Paris 4, 1986. http://www.theses.fr/1986PA040414.
Full textThis thesis tells the history of the Caveau, a society of poet-song writers and singers, founded in 1729, Saint-Germain des Prés, Paris; by Piron, Colle, Gallet, Pannard and the two Crébillon. This society existed with a few interruptions until the beginning of the Second World War through different periods and under diverse avatars. The exceptional longevity ty of the Caveau is explained by the fact that these reunions satisfied three French traits: the love of song, food and wine, and companionship. The Caveau also played an important role in the creation of collective literature. On one side, its members often collaborated collectively in the creation of different works (operas, parodies, comedies, vaudevilles, novels, etc. ). On the other side, each member by constructive and sincere criticisms, helped improve the works of the others in collective readings. Amongst the most notorious members Piron, Pannard, Colle, Crébillon, Helvetius Rameau, Boucher, Marmontel, Laujon, Segur, Desaugiers, Beranger, Charles Nodier, Jules Janin, Gustave Nadaud, Pierre Dupont, Xavier Privas. More than twelve thousand songs were sung at the Caveau over its two centuries of existence and their written music are conserved in the "Clé du Caveau"
Spyropoulou, Leclanche Maria. "Le refrain dans la chanson française au XXe siècle : formes et fonctions." Aix-Marseille 1, 1993. http://www.theses.fr/1993AIX10013.
Full textThe refrain of the french popular song, avatar of ancient choral traditions, is detached from or integral to the verse. Typology uses criteria of variability and position (the initial detached refrain, the epiversal, epiphoric or antepiphoric integrated refrain). The detached versal refrain usually contains at least sixtenn syllables, organised into four perceptual units. These constraints do not apply tothe integrated refrain. The popularity of these types and forms has varied throughout the century. Semiologic study reveals contrasting (external) traits, which oppose verse and refrain and pertinent traits, belonging to the refrain itself. Pertinent (or intrinsic) traits are: thematic motivation, which confers either the autonomy (as in the detached "folklore-type" refrain), or the integration of the refrain (as in the literary or "poetic" refrain); limpidity, which satisfies the need for simplicity and intelligibility); lyricism, vector of affective values. Two external contextual traits may be added : break and repetition. The detached refrain is said to have four principal functions: the structural function (to organize the song in a bi-modular whole); the function of clusure; the function of attraction (to attract or seduce the listener); and the function of perdurability (to ensure the continued popularity of the text). Occuring in a uni-modular versal structure, them integrated refrain; whose primary function is poetic, provides versal clausula by emphasizing the theme of the song

Full textThe overall objective of this thesis is to contribute to the development of knowledge on cultural and musical life in the 1920s. Based on the work of Roméo Beaudry, a repertoire of songs typically associated with the culture of the United States can serve as a milestone in the history of the French-Canadian popular song. In this regard, the first two chapters describe the locations of song production and reception with a focus on the role of music distribution. Habit changes at the beginning of the twentieth century would have a significant impact on the development of relations between auditors, works, reception venues and media. Chapter 1 describes how these relations have shaken geographical, language and generic boundaries while increasing musical diversity and offering a wider music circulation. Chapter 2 suggests that dynamic and complex factors such as leisure time and listening habits may have altered the reception of popular songs. The plurality of locations and medias also contributed to the formation of a heterogeneous public. Noting the abundance of popular music in the United States and the numerous songs translated into French, the second part of the thesis shows that this imposing repertoire can mean something other than Americanization, something other than a form of assimilation. In Chapter 3, translation, literature and musicology studies provide analysis models that allow the identification of the transformation process leading to a song’s translation. The adaptation of Gérard Genette’s transtextuality shows that the transposition of a text and the transcription of a melody may maintain or radically change the meaning of a song. In Chapter 4, the model is applied on three specific songs. At the outcome, Beaudry is defined as an important player in the world of French-Canadian popular songs and it is shown how translation and imitation can lead to a creative appropriation of a work reflecting both local and continental cultures.

Full textFrom the 17th to the 20th century, songs and hymns in Breton language were often composed to “timbres”, that is to say they were set to pre-existing music already familiar to the public concerned. The formulas naming these timbres, preceded by the expression war don... (to the tune of...), were referring to the title or the incipit of a song. The perusal of compositions – published in broadsides, books, chapbooks, newspapers or in original manuscripts – scattered in public libraries and private collections helped to establish a large corpus of over 5700 songs bearing such formulas. The identification of those written in Breton has led to the constitution of a catalogue containing 873 entries with one or more musical versions of the tunes together with all the songs referring to them. The analysis of these “timbres”, set in their historical context, has likewise helped to clarify the criteria by which they were chosen by the authors. Through exploring and documenting this lyrical dimension, which has rarely been studied so far, this research aims at giving a better understanding of both secular and religious songs in the Breton language

Full textThe double tells the resemblance of two individuals whom it places in a play of mirrors. It is structure around this idea of mirrors. Indeed the double appears in three ways : he can be perfect, imperfect or divergent. The first form reveals a quasi-identity through the various aspects of the physical, moral or social portrait of the twins. However, it is certain that similarities lies in what God did, whereas the differences lie in what men established. The second form is that of univitellin twins or biological brothers, half-brothers, foster brothers and bastards. The imperfect double appears through a division of the identical and the dissimilar between the heroes. The epic brotherhood cannot be equalitarian, otherwise it is likely to be fatal. Illegitimacy is valued, since it brings new blood to a consanguineous fellowship. Lastly, the divergent or complementary double appears within family relationships, in particular filial and avuncular. The nephew devotes himself to his uncle to the point of scarifying his own life to save his uncle's. Is such a gesture, that of a martyr, or a suicidal act? This study has shown that the epic narrative is primarily based on two characters rather than a single one, and that, in the substratum of the majority of the Chanson de Geste, there is a couple, and, through it, a certain concept of the heroic universe. The duality implies the stability of the universe. It constitutes the calling of the hero and his double who act on three levels : family, country and the Eastern world. The double establishes unity, he is there to restore justice, to bring back order in a chaotic world. The double represents search fo the lost unity
Picazos, Raphaël, and Gautier d'Épinal. "Gautier d'Épinal: édition critique et commentaire." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA040053.
Full textThe goal of our research is a new edition of the poems of Gautier d'Epinal to replace the old edition Ugo Lindelöf and Axel Wallensköld, published in 1901. Following a fresh and direct study of the complete manuscript tradition, we chose U as the reference text. Among the most ancient songbooks in langue d'oïl, the structure of the U manuscript is complex, consisting of no less than three principle sections, of which the first is very old, dating no later than the 1240s. The introduction provides a description and analysis of the corpus of Gautier d'Epinal contained in the three sections, as well as situating it with the other songbooks of the tradition. Each song is preceded by a description of the metrical and musical schemas, as well as an introductory analysis of the textual tradition of each piece. The lyrics are provided with a negative critical apparatus, distributed on two levels. The upper level deals with the faults and main variations, while the lower level is dedicated to the graphical variations. The commentary aims to highlight the most notable links with the “classical" trouvères who were Gautier's contemporaries, along with some remaks of a grammatical and stylistic nature. Each piece is accompanied with a transcription of the melodies and the work is concluded with a short, selective glossary of the included 15 pieces

Full textThe 14th and 16th centuries were particularly rich in musical research and innovation, aspiring to a closer relationship between music and lyrics, and to the development of expression. These conditions - tied to a new interest for nature in the arts - encouraged the onomatopoeic creation in Italian and French profane vocal music. By the privileged relationship it imposes between notes and words and by its expressive character, onomatopoeia contributed to the evolution of musical language. The notion of imitation appears here as being secondary, the selection of the phonemes depending mostly on an arbitrary choice and on a convention respected by all composers. In the 16th century Italian and English madrigal forms and French "chanson", onomatopoeia's function is first of all symbolic, diverting, and corresponds to the expressive sensibilities of the period's musicians

This perspective promotes access to the construction of knowledge from experience in a specific area, steeped in Berber culture. It opens the way for including the discovery of materials that will enrich the invention of a contemporary practice. Thus, the research unfolds in four areas: The first focuses on the uniqueness of the land and borrowed the method to access and overcome resistance.

Full text@Since its apperance in the XIth century to its progressive decline starting in the WVIth century, the popularity of the Amicus and Amelius legend never waned. Nowadays, this legend is not only nearly unknown to the general public, but also, moreparadoxically, both very well-known and not known well to specialists. This is particularly due to the lack of accessibility of the Frenche branch, essantially represented by its most two famous representatives - i. E. The chanson de geste and the Anglo-Norman poem - and the same lack of accessibility of the Latin Branch, since the editions at our disposal also concern only two texts, and are already quite old. This work will attempt to deals with both the editorial and literary sides of this issue. First, we will complete the corpus of editions of the French and Latin traditions, both returning to existing but little known editions and presenting unpublished texts. The second part will be devoted to a literary analysis which, after having summariezd the extensive literary tradition, will focus on several patterns inherent to the entire corpus, and will then set out a new way to read the chanson de geste, in its dual dimension, hagiographic and anagogic

Full textFirst of all this thesis, deals with the History of popular Breton singing and music. Secondly, it deals with a study of the different Breton movements which were more or less active from the French Revolution to the 1970's. These very years witnessed an awakering of the Breton identity, notably through music and songs which had been modernized by several artists. This "Breton wave" almost died down in the late 1970's and was followed by a decade during which much research was achieved and a new generation of musicians was forged. Thirdly, it deals with the new musical revival of the early 1990's. By then this music was widely popularized by the media, so a larger audience discovered this new music, both diverse and also hybrid in many ways. Each one of these eras has been analyzed. This bulk of research, completed by artists statements, allows the reader to grasp the main steps that characterized this popular art, which appear to be the major strengh of contemporary Breton culture

Full textThe formulation of our subject of thesis "mythical reminiscences and rite initiatory quest in segou's verse chronicle (segou's "geste") is inspired by the observation that a trinitarian and consubstantial relationship exists between the underlying myth, the initiatory schema and the epic poem (la chanson de geste). Therefore, we have tried to establish the fact that, if myths and initiation belongto the domain of the sacred, the abstruse and the esoteric, the natural vocation of the verse chronicle is to popularize them, permitting their understanding by the ordinary man. We have defined the scope of our research domain by the study of twelve episodes, that are transcribed and translated from segou's "geste", and told by the griot baba cissoko, the chronicler daye baba diallo and the choreographic orchestra named "national instrumental group of mali". The choice of those narratives was dictated by the historical chronology of segou's bambara kingdom, and notably, the origin of the state foundation, the pinnacle of kouloubali and diara dynasties, the territorial annexation wars and the decline of segou's power, resulting from macina's fulani "irredentism". Our methodology, based on ethnologic, historical and linguistic works, take care to emerge from those works, essentially by the analysis and the highlighting of literality phenomenon, and, as it happens, the expression of the orality in the epic tales. In accordance with this perspective, we have focused our study on the themes of lyrics in their mythical and apologetic meaning of creative word, of the concept of the divine in bambara's cosmogenesis, of the political power and its hieratic and hierarchical aspects, of the spirit of convivial life in the city, of the family institution in correlation with the normative principles of education, of morality and tradition. To reach this aim, we have spaced out the development on the following steps : in backdrop, we have presented an historical glimpse of segou's and kaarta's bambaras, followed by an introduction of bambara's pantheon and sanctuary, with the intention to prove that the mythical and rite initiatory reminiscences of the "geste" take their source from the bambara's spiritual beliefs. We have got the conclusion that, through the allegory of segou's "geste", a deteriorated or, at least, a degenerative form of cosmogonic and etiological myths

Full textThe critical edition of «Renaut de Montauban» according to the version handed down through the BNF, fr. 766 manuscript has systematically outlined, by means of comment notes and synoptic tables, the rewriting degree and technique which an anonymous writer accomplished by the late 13th century. It has also highlighted the narrative aims of this adaptation: an increased mockery in the royalty portrayal, as well as a higher degree of realistic humour compared to the other traditional versions. Such re-writing technique can be set into the complex “re-production” system of «Renaut de Montauban», with alternating oral performances and written transcriptions. That would explain the chaotic “mouvance” of the text and consequently justify a mixed-edition methodology. The detailed analysis of «Renaut de Montauban»’s various offshoots through time (centuries XIV-XX) and space (from France towards Northern and Southern Europe) has confirmed the existence of this kind of textual manipulation alongside other kinds of adaptation and translation. The “status questionis” of critics’ conflicting opinions has pointed out the basic uniformity of the poem. It could be easily placed halfway between the typical chanson de geste (as in the sections of the «Chanson de Roland» that mainly revolve around the theme of war) and the “chanson d’aventure”, which was destined to only flourish well in the 14th century but was anticipated in the narrative cycles related to «Renaut de Montauban». In fact, the accumulation of different themes and tones finds its coherence in the biographical evolution of the characters

Full textThe study has two sides : one which concerns the typology and one about the song's functions. 40 songs (20 "trovas" and 20 "decimas") have been written to make our corpus. It emphasizes the close links between the text, the music, some peculiartion of the singers (voice, gesture, aklothes) and the cultural environnement. The methodology adopted is built on theoretical basis from different areas, musicology, linguistic and anthropology. The pluridisciplinary analysis was built as a whole, based on the structural properties of the songs (music and text), the linguistic analysis concerns both the "signfiant" and the "signifié". To be able analysis so:me other aspects between text and music we used the methode d'alysis rytmique cominatorie. The results of the research have that the "decimas" had a slow evoluton. On the contrary, the "trovas" are in a process of large developpment with several types for the music and versification. We found a very important cohesion between, text, music and gesture. The macro and microfonctions of the different types of discourses have been pointed up

Full textOur thesis examines how some literary works of the twelfth century depict strangers. The chanson de geste set up a series of stereotypes in such a way that the audience is seldom surprised by the protrait given of the strangers, which as a matter of fact must fulfil some expectations. However, throughout the century, the idea of the stranger becomes more complicated because of a two-fold movement of inclusion and exclusion: it outlines strangers in the process of being integrated and natives in the process of being outcast. This happens at the same time as the birth of a new literary genre: the novel in which every character is a stranger. They appear to some extent as strangers of epics but, as forerunners of the medieval chivalry in which the public claims to have its roots, they turn out to be particularly ambivalent individuals, some of whom being really praised

Full textAmong the prevailing currents during the last few decades the 'new song' has a very special flavour in catalonia. It has grown up as a reaction to the continuing political repression in the wake of the civil war, to which it is closely related in a specific cultural and social context. After a historical outline of the song in catalonia the most representative figures of the 'nova canco' are analysed. The 'setze jutges' are the pioneers of this movement. A brief analysis of their texts already leads to the discovery of messages full of demands. A more detailed analysis of the work of the leader raimon, of the anti-conformist francesc pi de la serra, of the lyrical joan manuel serrat, of the melancholy maria del mar bonet, of the rebel lluis llach, of the anti-capitalist ovidi montllor reveals statements of political commitment, of social criticism, of defense of the catalan language and literature, of the awareness of man in time, but also of the discovery of his individuality. The texts of the 'cantautors' are evidence of individual protest widening its scope within the framework of a collective movement. The keythemes of the past, of the soil, of the night, of hope - reflecting a kind of pessimism typical of the catalan character -, the messages of the future and of development (the symbols of an interior crusade and of self-knowledge) are given a special interpretation in the catalan context. These themes, together with the intention of demystification in a blind society and with the techni- ques of contrast and irony, are all elements that contribute to the specifi- cally catalan character of this poetry. They give the cantautors the role of educators waking up sleeping consciences and justify the interpretation of this nova canco as a reaffirmation of a people

Full textThe aim of this thesis is the elaboration of hermeneutic explanations and a methodological model which allow the clarification and the broadening of traditional perspectives which have formed around the concept of “courtly love”. In order to counteract the univocity of existing theories and to cast fresh light on the canon associated with this notion, this work offers a broader scope of analysis: that of Gallo-romance amatory discourse. The object as it is defined here embraces all its expressions and erotic secular representations. The heterogeneous nature of amatory discourse, which it is essential to consider as an ideological, cultural and literary entity, is subjected to an analysis based on an interpretative framework which is both general and particular. In order to re-evaluate the very foundations of this object, our investigation makes use of various critical approaches and chronological aspects: the exegetical phase of this study, founded on the philological analysis of the texts, is completed by a stylistic and rhetorical analysis. The structure of the work is as follows: the identification of the underlying motifs and themes (noyaux de fond) is followed by the construction of an inventory of prototypes of amatory discourse and by the study of their chronological and spatial diffusion. This procedure is legitimized by the identification of three distinct phases which saw the elaboration and consolidation of the expressive code: this occurred first in southern France, then in the north, and, finally, in the northern urban centres and through the neo-courtly reception which characterized the third quarter of the 13th century

Full textCette thèse de musicologie historique utilise la programmation radiophonique du poste CKAC de Montréal dans l’entre-deux-guerres afin de remettre en question une homogénéité présumée de la chanson folklorisée chez les grandes figures que sont Madame Bolduc, Charles Marchand, Ovila Légaré et l’abbé Gadbois. L’analyse proposée se focalise sur les pratiques de la chanson métissées au folklore canadien-français dans les domaines du chant, de la danse et du conte. Cette démarche est combinée à l’identification d’émissions de radio où les artistes ont des pratiques du répertoire en commun. La thèse met ainsi en évidence deux réseaux de collaborations. Le premier réseau d’artistes, les « Lyriques », assez près de L’Heure provinciale à CKAC, favorise des voix de type classique et bénéficie d’un appui de la critique, surtout à la revue La Lyre. On y retrouve notamment Charles Marchand et ses Troubadours de Bytown, le Quatuor Alouette, le Trio lyrique de Lionel Daunais et La Bonne chanson de l’abbé Gadbois. L’esthétique de la chanson des « Lyriques » est tournée vers l’Europe dans une pratique hybride entre opérette et chanson montmartroise, dans l’esprit de Théodore Botrel et de la diseuse Yvette Guilbert. Le deuxième réseau d’artistes est celui des « Veillées », associé de près à la Living Room Furniture à CKAC, en écho aux artistes des Veillées du bon vieux temps de Conrad Gauthier sur la scène du Monument national. En plus de ce dernier, le groupe des « Veillées » rassemble notamment Ovila Légaré, Madame Bolduc, le violoneux Isidore Soucy et une série de comédiens. L’esthétique de la chanson du groupe des « Veillées » est tournée vers les Amériques dans un métissage de théâtre burlesque et d’orchestres de musique de danse instrumentale canadienne-française, jusqu’à un certain point similaires à ceux de jazz swing, de tango et de rumba. Les ensembles identifiés n’étant pas non plus parfaitement homogènes, il ressort enfin des groupes des « Lyriques » et des « Veillées » quelques artistes en marge ou à la croisée des deux esthétiques. Il s’agit d’une part des chanteurs de variétés Ludovic Huot, Georges Beauchemin, Fernand Perron, Albert Marier et Jean Lalonde, qui combinent l’opérette, les chansons américaines et latines. On pense d’autre part au théâtre lyrique de Jeanne Maubourg, Caro Lamoureux, Roméo Mousseau et Gaston Saint-Jacques, qui oscille entre la chanson sur le mode lyrique léger et les sketches dramatiques. Il y a encore un nombre important de petits et grands orchestres qui accompagnent la musique de danse des hôtels, cabarets et théâtres de Montréal. L’insistance sur les pratiques hybrides de la chanson permet au final de nuancer une perception généralement unidimensionnelle des artistes de la chanson à l’époque, Charles Marchand le folkloriste ou Madame Bolduc la turluteuse, par exemple.
This music history thesis studies chanson radio broadcasting at CKAC station in Montreal during the interwar period. The data collected challenges an assumed homogeneity of French Canadian folk-influenced chanson legendary icons such as Madame Bolduc, Charles Marchand, Ovila Légaré and priest Charles-Émile Gadbois’ songbook La Bonne chanson. The analysis focuses on chanson influences that meld French Canadian folk music with the performing arts of singing, dancing, and telling tales. The research seeks to point out radio programs where chanson artists share a common repertory. This thesis thus argues that two artist networks coexist. The first network gathers Art Song performers featured on CKAC program L’Heure provinciale. It favours classically trained voices and benefits from the approval of local music critics, especially from magazine La Lyre. This network includes such featured singers as Charles Marchand and the Bytown Troubadours, Quatuor Alouette, Lionel Daunais and his Trio lyrique as well as priest Gadbois’ songbook La Bonne chanson. Chanson æsthetics among Art Song performers is primarily influenced by Europe. The practices blend opera, operetta and Montmartre chanson, in the spirit of Théodore Botrel and French diseuse Yvette Guilbert. The second network is the one of Veillées (Evenings), featured on CKAC program Living Room Furniture. The name itself echoes the fiddle musicians and actors from Conrad Gauthier’s Veillées du Bon Vieux Temps, presented at Monument National. In addition to Monsieur Gauthier, the Veillées network gathers Ovila Légaré, Madame Bolduc, fiddler Isidore Soucy and several actors. Chanson æsthetics of Veillées performers is largely defined by the Americas in a blend of local burlesque comedy and French Canadian fiddle dance music orchestras, similar to those for jazz swing, tango and rumba. Both networks aren’t homogeneous. One finds among Art Song and Veillées artists a few performers standing on the edge of the two æsthetics. A first category features pop romance singers like Ludovic Huot, Georges Beauchemin, Fernand Perron, Albert Marier and Jean Lalonde, combining operetta, American pop songs and Latin rhythms. A second, with Jeanne Maubourg, Caro Lamoureux, Roméo Mousseau and Gaston Saint-Jacques, performs chansons mixing a sweet lyrical tone and drama sketches. A third category gathers all small and large orchestras that perform dance music in Montreal hotels and theaters. In the past, Charles Marchand has usually been depicted in a simple folk performer style. Madame Bolduc has herself been personified as a mere diddling performer during the Stock Market Crash. The thesis focus on cross-pollinating chanson practices enables one to move beyond a general perception that these artists are mostly one-dimensional.

Full textThe @folklorist François-Marie Luzel (1821-1895) is known for having put together the largest existing collection of West Breton folktales, popular dramas and folksongs. Nonetheless, for ever a century, his work remained largely unpublished and ignored by researchers, and a biography, bibliography and catalogue of his archives had yet to be done. This thesis aims first and foremost to provide an overview of the publication project, now in progress, of a 24-volume methodical edition of Luzel's works, and -now that 12 volumes have been completed - to give a detailed account of what has been so far achieved : this includes explaining the purpose of this publication, describing its approach, pointing out omissions and planning the contents and order of publication of the remaining volumes. This edition being necessarily based on preliminary and complementary research, the second aim of this thesis is to provide a synthesis of all existing knowledge on the subject, thanks to a biography, a bibliography, a catalogue of archives and a computerized classification of Luzel's works. The third aim of this thesis is to place this edition within a historical context. Indeee, it had to be explained on one hand why, during the past century, it had been consistently impossible to prepare a methodical edition of Luzel's works, and on the other, why the Breton nationalists were opposed to this edition. In conclusion, the principal interest of this publication seems to be the opportunity it provides to study nationalist rhetoric

Through its poetical and literary content as well as its musical organization, it narrates the history of Bosnian people, from historical, political and sociocultural perspective. Over time, sevdalinka maintained the essential of its role, the cultural preservation, regardless of the historical developments, political changes and sociocultural modifications. The process of that preservation is reflected through the fundamentals of this music; “dignity” and “balance”. “Dignity” and “balance” are rooted at the poetical and literary levels as well as musical, through nostalgia and phonostylistics respectively. “Dignity” and “balance” are essential in order to achieve an axiological perception, defined by the valorization of the sevdalinka for its poetical and literary as well as musical content, its transmission and reception, to the point of being qualified “authentic”. That is when sevdah is achieved, state of transendance caused by a contemplation of a serene life style and emotional fulfillment, of personal discovery within oneself and within the others

Full textThe region of Betsileo is famous throughout the island of Madagascar for its Zafindraony songs. These christian songs, a creation of the people which arise without clerical control, reflect the cultural and social history of the region during the last century. The thesis dedicates, to begin with, five chapters to the history of the genre zafindraony : to its birth (I), to its performance today (II), to its place in Betsileo literature whence it has emerged (III), to its complex position within a bi-polarised society (IV and V). The second part, a literary analysis examines 180 songs gleaned from their context. The approach is in part ethnological, in part literary, the performance of the songs allowing the effect of their oral nature to be grasped. The corpus is arranged according to the citerea : oral (traditional) and written (imported). Whilst protestantism, attached to the written word, rejects narrativity in favour of prayer and wisdom, the action of a few jesuit missionaries (H. Dubois) has released amongst the catholics a powerful current of creation of song tales (above a biblical) in which the oral character seeks to reemerge, particularly in songs of the death and resurrection of the great hero Rajeso (Jesus). The common inspiration of these tantara (stories) is the strength of the aina, the malagasy life-force current that is expressed in the emulation of rival groups, the alternation of choirs and of voices, the theme of the stories (the reversal of a situation, sacrifices, fights) and the circumstances of their performance (song competitions, evening gatherings, funerals). All these together have as their end the anatra, the advice, in which the traditional objectives of malagasy wisdom : the socio-cosmic integration of the individual and the maintenance of social cohesion (fihavanana), are expressed in christian terms. An authentically malagasy fruit of the meeting of cultures, these songs show that in Betsileo "to sing is to conquer death. "

So, outer settings are studied : nature, town, battlefields, and inner settings : the court, architectural surroundings, and also the plausibility stage the authors use to make their characters live in landscapes (expression of their points of view, of their spatial perception) and above all aesthetic, ideological, intertextual implications of these settings : the treatment of light; the expression of horror and sacred in epic; the different representations of kingship and power; the deep significance of emmently symbolical productions
