Abstract:

Cette étude comparative des œuvres d’Edouard Glissant et de Derek Walcott examine le devenir de la littérature antillaise ainsi que l’évolution des littératures dites postcoloniales.A partir des notions critiques d’esthétique, de politique, de culture et de stratégie discursive, nous avons examiné les œuvres de Glissant et celles de Walcott selon une perspective historique. En effet, la question de la place de l’Histoire étroitement liée à l’expérience personnelle des auteurs est au cœur des textes. Ils mettent en avant l’odyssée d’une Histoire antillaise marginale et fantasmée qui cherche à s

Abstract:

This thesis explores the function of the theatre in Derek Walcott's literary achievements. Focusing on the semiotic theories that characterize the study of drama as a literary text and as a staged text, the initial approach aims at creating a relationship between semiotics and postcolonial theories. In particular Pavis's concept of intercultural semiotics and Peter Brook's innovative visions about the regenerative function of the space of the theatre represent a useful theoretical basis to consider the specificity of postcolonial theatre as an innovative space, where new cultural meanings emer

Abstract:

This thesis analyses three of Derek Walcott's plays in the light of Wilson Harris's ideas of 'infinite rehearsal' and 'unfinished genesis.' The purpose of this thesis is to explore Walcott's definition of the artist and his relation to society in the context of decolonisation. Throughout the thesis the struggle against nihilism appears as a constant underlying goal that both writers relate to the essence of the Caribbean, as a symbol of survival and regenesis. The first part of the thesis offers a deep analysis of Harrisian concepts of literature and its connection to reality, and an explorati

Abstract:

Derek Walcott est né en 1930 à Sainte Lucie, petite île perdue dans l’archipel des Caraïbes. Son œuvre poétique et théâtrale est à la conjonction de deux influences majeures : l’une est héritée du colonialisme britannique, la seconde lui vient de son ascendance africaine.J’ai essayé, dans mon travail, de toujours garder en mémoire cette ambivalence, voire cet écartèlement, que Walcott revendique puisqu’il se définit comme le divided child. L’œuvre de Walcott est multiple. Néanmoins, c’est son rapport au Temps, à l’Histoire et à la création picturale qui m’ont paru essentiels. Dans le premier c

Abstract:

This thesis examines place in the poetry of Derek Walcott. Through the close reading of a number of key topoi in Walcott's poetry, this thesis investigates the meanings that Walcott associates with different places. Threaded through these investigations, and forming the main argument, this thesis asserts that Walcott privileges place over space. Walcott rejects 'space' as an invention and abstract 'design' associated with colonial dominion and with neocolonial practices. For Walcott, space, as an abstraction, disavows local experience. Because of this, privileging space knowingly or unknowingl

Abstract:

Héritiers de l'esclave contraint à parler par sous-entendus afin de déjouer son maître, les personnages déploient, dans le théâtre de Derek Walcott, une rhétorique qui n'est claire que lorsqu'on devine leur système d'encodage. Tous les niveaux sémantiques de la pratique théâtrale sont touchés par une volte-face du sens. Une même référence désigne deux référents, une même mimesis renvoie à deux objets dans cette dramaturgie diabolique. Elle est orchestrée par la figure immuable mais métamorphique du trickster, clochard céleste et habile qui plonge ses racines à la fois dans les contes africains

Abstract:

This thesis provides a 'green' reading of selected writings from Wilson Harris and Derek Walcott, demonstrating each writer's profound and sustained engagement with the philosophy, politics and poetics of environmentalism. The environmental ethic evident in the work of Harris and of Walcott has been fashioned in relation not only to personal experiences of lived reality in the Caribbean, but also as a result of prevalent ecological thinking world-wide. In addition, an integral part of the construction of such literary ecology is the formation of dialogues with an earlier eco-literary heritage,

Abstract:

This thesis considers crucial questions relating to the theatrical works of Aimé Césaire and Derek Walcott and argues that the authors' quest for identity is framed by a dialectic which Édouard Glissant has termed "philosophy of Relation". I show that it is this "philosophy of Relation" which helps the authors formulate a theatrical vision that transcends the chaotic aspects of Antillean history. By examining the dialectical thrust of Walcott's and Césaire's theatre, the study seeks to develop an overarching theory of modern West Indian drama that accounts for its s

In order to answer questions about the nature, viability and shape of what would constitute a modernist epic, this thesis explores three very different twentieth century writers, Hart Crane, David Jones and Derek Walcott. Rather than being a narrowly genre based study, however, I argue that in the twentieth century the ‘epic’ mode has become a malleable form with which to explore troubling legacies of history, empire and, to exhibit a dimension of the sacred in modernity.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the complex intersections between Derek Walcott’s Omeros and modernist versions of the epic. Critics generally acknowledge the pervasive presence of modernist allusions in Walcott’s early work, but see the relevance of modernism diminishing as Walcott develops his “mature” poetic strategies of mimicry and hybridity. I challenge this reading of Walcott, arguing that the modernist practices of Ezra Pound in The Cantos, T.S. Eliot in The Waste Land, and Hart Crane in The Bridge are crucial to illuminating the central theme of cultural healing in Walcott’s most ambitious work,

碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>外國語文學系研究所<br>98<br>A stunning poem that draws the attention of the reading public, Omeros is often regarded as the most famous and most successful of Derek Walcott’s works. In one sense, Omeros is the Greek name for Homer, and Walcott chose it for the title of the poem to show his ambition to be a Caribbean Homer, a poet developing an epic from a West Indian perspective. With the epic form and resonant mythic Greek namesakes, Omeros is built upon Walcott’s innate love for St. Lucia. Structurally, the epic form provides the vast framework he needs to describe the multicultura

碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>外國語文學系研究所<br>96<br>This thesis aims to interpret the construction of cultural identity of the Caribbean islands in Derek Walcott’s The Haitian Trilogy: Henri Christophe, Drums and Colours, and The Haitian Earth. To rely on the postcolonial and cultural critics’ study on mimicry, multiple voices and identity construction, I take the construction of cultural identity as a transitional process to fabricate a way to identify with the land that people live on. The colonial background and the postcolonial exploration in the Caribbean islands combined with its diverse racial compone

Abstract:

博士<br>國立中山大學<br>外國語文學系研究所<br>103<br>What does it mean, “writing survival”? In what way does the fact of living after (or living over, or surviving) the significant others relate to writing? In posing these questions, this dissertation is interested in the dynamic convocation in which a writer approaches his legacy while he becomes a writer. In the works of three postcolonial writers, namely V. S. Naipaul, Derek Walcott, and J. M. Coetzee, this project looks into three different manners in which legacy is claimed and employed in the act of writing about oneself. It asks the basic question of wh
