Einman, Maria. "Lector in drama. Les enjeux fictionnels et imaginaires du suicide dans le théâtre français du XIXe siècle." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018USPCA048/document.
Full textThis study examines the reading of drama texts as the reading of fictional texts, aiming to broaden the current approach according to which the reading of drama texts is mainly limited to text analysis. This question is examined in the light of the issue of suicide in 19th-century French drama. The principal aim of this study is therefore to understand the impact of the character’s suicide on the reader via the detailed analysis of the ins and outs of the suicidal act. The study applies Vincent Jouve’s concept of the virtual reader, who is defined as an implicit and atemporal recipient of the text effects. This reader emerges in a fictional world that is supported by an operative device (dispositif) based on the Lacanian triptych of the Real, the Symbolic and the Imaginary.The dissertation consists of five chapters. The theoretical discussion is followed by four chapters that deal, respectively, with melodrama, romantic drama, naturalist drama, and symbolist drama. In addition to the effect of the fictional suicide on the reader (which is systematically connected to the catharsis), the evolution of theatrical genres and forms is explored from the perspective of “virtual” reading. Thereby, the reading of 19th-century French drama could be viewed as a journey from the optimistic certainty of melodrama to the tragic indeterminacy of symbolist drama, from actual to probable suicides, from “sorrowful” catharsis to anticatharsis

Full textHow do François Mauriac and Hervé Bazin (two French novelists), Loys Masson and Marie-Thérèse Humbert (two Mauritian novelists) depict domestic tragedy ? The thematic, comparative, psychoanalytical, sociological, narratological, as well as enunciative interpretation, of a corpus of five French novels and five Mauritian novels, first gives rise to the following : certain similar characteristics can be found between the French and the Mauritian literary texts, in terms of recurrence of the same expressions of domestic tragedy, from the point of view of both the child and the couple, and backed by comparable narrative techniques. However, one main difference between the two groups of authors lies in their opposite geographical, historical and social background. And yet, the possibility of widening our corpus of novelists and novels, together with the dissimilarities between authors of the same origin, contributes to a new concept of less “national” and more “individual” domestic tragedy

Full textContemporary theatre answers the requirement of a theater writing of the time by renewing in particular its form, its language and its addressee. Drama is no longer an “action” taking place in the present. It becomes the expression of a return, that of the past. Playing with the past corresponds to endless comings and goings from the past to drama and from drama to the past. This study focuses on nine plays written between 1980 and 2000 by three French dramatists, Patrick Kermann, Jean-Luc Lagarce and Philippe Minyana. In these writings, the past claims its place [and takes it] in the performance actuality. By investing the whole drama structure, it disrupts the organization of speech, the representation of space and the possibility of action. This claiming also proceeds from the return of the dead and to death. Whereas catastrophe already took place, disaster keeps on damaging and deconstructing the fable. Played by the past, drama and its protagonists testify an inheritance left “by no testament”. Deprived of identity, the character accepts or suffers the way he is played, without necessarily and systematically managing to offer an interpretation

Sfeir, Maya. "A Comparative Analysis of Language and Gender in Selected French and American Modern Drama." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018USPCA021.
Full textThe purpose of this study was to investigate how gender, and power and affinity relationships areconstructed via discourse in two French and two American plays composed during the modern period (1890-1914): James A. Herne’s Margaret Fleming (1890), Rachel Crothers’s He and She (1911), Eugène Brieux’sLes Avariés (1902), and Marie Lenéru’s La Triomphatrice (1914). The study sought to fill the gap between,on the one hand, research in the field of language and gender that unsystematically analyzed literary anddramatic texts, and, on the other hand, studies in the field of the linguistic analysis of drama that analyzedlanguage and gender in plays without recourse to the theoretical underpinnings in language and genderstudies. To address this gap, a three-partite model analyzing the dramatic text, the situation of enunciation,and gendered discourses was developed, building on Critical Discourse Analysis and French DiscourseAnalysis, as well as research from the fields of language and gender, and the linguistic analysis of drama. Aclose examination of gendered representations and gendered usage using the model revealed that in Frenchand American drama, similar linguistic features are mostly deployed to construct gender and relationships.Results also showed that in dramatic texts, gender is situational, depending on context, and intersectional,often intersecting with other categories like class, age, and ethnicity, and in the case of dramatic texts,dramatic genres and roles. These findings present new ways of researching and reading gender in dramaticdiscourse. They also highlight the importance of combining multi-cultural approaches to analyze gender indramatic texts
Melai, Maurizio. "Les derniers feux de la tragédie classique : étude du genre tragique en France sous la Restauration et la Monarchie de Juillet." Thesis, Paris 4, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PA040038.
Full textThis study concerns the practice of the genre of classical tragedy in the nineteenth century, particularly during the Restoration and the July Monarchy. It focuses on the last developments of tragedy in France and documents the evolution and the progressive decline of this genre during the first half of the nineteenth century; that is until its disappearance from French theatres, which took place around 1850. By considering a corpus of eighty plays, this work aims to give a clear picture of the tragic genre and tragic authors of the Restoration and the July Monarchy, or more exactly of the forty years from 1814 to 1854. This work is conceived as the study of a literary code and is divided into two parts: in the first part, we try to define the tragic code of the post-Napoleonic era on the basis of the formal constants which characterise it, showing the evolution of the stylistic, structural and dramaturgic features of tragedy. In the second part, we look at the thematic constants of this code, studying the strategies that tragedy uses to transpose – through the historical and highly allusive subjects that it treats – the principal social and political problems of its time. Finally, by showing the continuity which exists between the declining tragic genre and the romantic drama, we try to valorise the texts in our corpus and to underline their modern features. This leads us to look for the reasons behind the persistence of a traditional genre like the classical tragedy and for the factors which revitalise it in the nineteenth century
Bile, Sembo-Backonly Anicette Irène. "De la réforme esthétique à la réflexion sociopolitique : une lecture des drames de Louis-Sébastien Mercier." Paris 3, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA030069.
Full textLouis-Sébastien Mercier (1740-1814) is a craftsman of the drama. Its participation in the aesthetic reflexion was crowned by a vast theatrical production. While resting on the large theoretical texts of the author, this work privileges the dramas, to read the orientations of the dramatic reform which it carried out. It is a question of following the thought of Mercier who speaks about the writer “flagellator of vice”, “cantor of the virtue”, in order to analyze the dramatic and dramaturgic means by which the esthetic reform leads, in its dramas, with a thought on the transformation of the society. Middle-class dramas, heroic dramas or national plays, and historical dramas are analyzed together, to see how all these categories account for the capacity given to the theater, and make it possible to understand the Mercier’s literary, political and social ideal. The first part makes for the installation. It not only sticks to traverse the great ideas of reform supported by Mercier, but also to present the selected repertory. It releases a particular conception of the representation of the conditions, which constitutes finally the matrix of the sociopolitic reflexion that the second and the third parts reveal through paintings, figures of characters, speeches

Full textThis dissertation highlights lyric and elegiac works in the corpus of seventeen melodies of Henri Duparc, through an analysis of the poetic and musical speeches. From the abstract point of view, the transfer of the notion of lyricism, from poetics to music, helps to build a representation of Duparc’s personal lyricism, that lays between the poetic lyricism and the possibilities of the musical structure. The first part of this study presents the various ways of lyricism through stylistic means of poetic lyricism (elevation of thought and repetition) and of musical lyricism (the idea of "violin-voice", the level of the voice, the rewriting of the works, the brevity, the bombast). The second part - the interpretative reading of the poetic texts – sheds lights on four elegiac situations, which are the more representative of the composer’s style. This prism reveals the Henri Duparc’s approach of composition: he works by themes, which he handles several times under different angles, to show the various emotional sides. Revealing Henri Duparc's dramatic ideas from his correspondence, the third part demonstrates that his melodies establish for this composer a laboratory of experiment of what he called himself the "drama of the soul", which he developed within the project of "La Roussalka", his unique operatic drama, unfinished then destroyed. These melodies highlight the limits of this musician writing skills regarding operatic drama, developed separate from action, without sequence of dramatic situations and without characters. At the end of this study, the melodies appear as the most accomplished shape in which Henri Duparc was proficient
Pleschka, Alexander. "Théatralité et public. Les drames tardifs de Schiller et la tragédie classique française." Thesis, Paris 4, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA040204.
Full textThe present study shows how Schiller, as a consequence of his reading of Kant and Diderot, includes the audience in his dramaturgy and thereby gives the scenic situation a public character, which allows him to represent political issues typical of the French Revolution. This serves to explain why Schiller’s later plays, especially Wallenstein, Maria Stuart and Demetrius, adapt some features of French classical tragedy.The first part of the study explains how, during the Querelle du Cid, contemporaries developed an awareness of how the presence of an audience lends a public quality to the situation of dramatic performance. This public quality is reflected in contemporary prescriptive poetics and employed to affect the audience in Corneille’s and Racine’s dramaturgy.The second part describes how since the 18th century viewing drama has been regarded as a genuinely subjective action, instead of being seen, as before, as a public activity taking place in front of other spectators. This mode of viewing allows creating a public sphere which is abstract in a modern sense.The third and final part states how Schiller’s aesthetics lead to a partial integration of the theatre audience into the scene, which in turn gives the scene a public character, similar to the one of the French classical period. This concept of the public character of drama is then distinguished from concepts developed in Schiller’s theoretical writings and illustrated with analyses of his later plays
Hamano, Toki. "Drame et poésie dans la tragédie racinienne : recherches sur les points de vue critiques." Paris 4, 1986. http://www.theses.fr/1986PA040218.
Full textOur study is essentially based on the relationship between drama and poetry in Racine’s tragedy. It stems from criticism from earlier centuries, which mainly set up Racine the poet against the playwright, casting even a doubt regarding his dramatic work. In the XVIIth c. , baffled critics, who might have been perplexed by the novelty of his work, relegate the author to a minor position, giving him a second part after Corneille. In the XVIIIth c. , too much support and praise eventually endangers the dramatist's status. The romantic revolution views Racine’s dramatic work as rather out of fashion. Curiously enough, the XXth c. Reestablishes Racine in his own part. The author, after having been made more than tedious by centuries for scholastic critics, becomes according to the abbot Bremond and the poet Valéry - the originator of an exquisite and pure poetry, a dramatist poet to be played anew and up-to-date according to Xavier de Courville and the well-known Copeau. A subject which inspired the greatest writers, playwrights and critics the world over, Racine after having lost favor is now reborn and well alive. The renewal of his staging by J. -L. Barrault and R. Planchon, the late revival of Berenice at the Comédie Française which was successfully cast by the german Klaus Gruber and the creation abroad - mainly in japan - of some of his plays, everything testifies of the strength and vitality and of the success worldwide of Racine’s tragedy

Full textThis thesis deals with the characteristics of the theatre of the world metaphor, as they appear in several contemporary french-speaking plays. Seven plays have been selected as images of the world, since they summon various emblematic elements of life on earth: humans, animals and flora, and emphasize their interaction in a universal surroundings. Firstly, the principal academic contributions concerning the historical notion of theatre of the world are gathered and commented. The main part of the research consists of the demonstration of the metaphor's contemporary extensions, through the study of the corpus. The analysis of each play is preceded by a presentation of its author's writing motivations and motives. Then, the play itself is examined carefully with the help of a reading grid which focuses successively on the dramatic categories : characters, space and time, actions, stage directions. Thus, the thesis's body is built as an exploration of seven variations of the theatre of the world, beginning with the most abstract one and leading to the most organic one. A synthesis ends this journey, pointing out that the plays match three composition patterns, which induces many combinations of the dramatic categories. This classification unveils the ambition at the origin of each writing project. In conclusion, it appears that the theatre of the world, generally considered as an old topos which refers to the theatrality of human life, is a framework strong enough to stand up to the poetics of comtemporary drama, and vast enough to house the most singular dramaturgic inventions
Biehler, Johanna. "La Maladie mentale dans les écritures dramatiques contemporaines d’expression française." Thesis, Pau, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PAUU1010/document.
Full textThe thesis is about mental disorders in French contemporary drama as well as their representations on stage. Theatre has always been concerned by mental diseases and for some researchers origins of the dramatic art have to be found in rituals and dreams. After a recall of the most famous “fools” presents in the history of European drama (Greek tragedies, Shakespeare’s plays or classic French drama) – we will see that “madness” is a long-lasting theme. We will focus on contemporary period: in fact, this thesis studies plays which were written since the beginning of the eighties. We could see that, despite the democratization of psychoanalyse, psychiatry and psychology, they all remain mysterious and fascinating. Playwrights like to use ambiguities about mental disorders and original behaviour

Full textReligious drama, which developed into a mass medium in European cities between the 14th and the 16th century, has always been a challenge for comparative research. Despite the many similarities between plays in different linguistic areas, no direct textual relationship between them could be proven. This dissertation aims to open up new perspectives for comparative research by changing the methodological approach. In order to identify the persuasion strategies of religious drama, this work considers the theatrical semiotic repertoire, consisting of language, image, sound (music and noise) and gesture. Although historical representations are essentially inaccessible to analysis, the ‘imagined representation,’ inscribed as potentiality in the signs transmitted by the manuscripts, can be reconstructed. Using methods mainly from textual linguistics, the study describes some persuasion strategies present in a representative selection of German and French Passion plays and eschatological plays. It identifies argumentative places (topoi) that structure the plays. A chapter is devoted to a topos, which recasts a certain subject in a threatening light. The plays use this in order to underline the relevance and urgency of theatrical representation. The diachronic comparison shows how defamation strategies, used in the 14th and 15th centuries to characterize and demonize the Jews as a collective, were applied to Protestants in the 16th century. Another chapter examines how the plays use authority as a topos to legitimize themselves. The analysis of the different evocation techniques makes it possible not only to describe the rhetorical and performative use of authorities, but also to highlight distinct concepts of authority. Finally, the last part shows how theatre builds and perpetuates stereotypes that affect the audience in both rational and emotional ways, leading to processes of inclusion and exclusion
Mentzel, Sophie. "Trônes vacillants : la représentation de la royauté sur la scène romantique (1820-1840)." Thesis, Nantes, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016NANT2011.
Full textBetween 1820 and 1840, as France is being governed by kings, theater – regardless the genre – chooses to deconstruct the old transcendantal stage pattern on which classical theather was built. Kings and Queens are not longer noble and static hieratic figures but can also be portayed as unstable and endangered characters. All symbols which once helped portrayed the power of monarchy are being transformed and rethinked on the romantic theatre stage level as well as props, sets, and theatrical roles to reveal the fragility of the royalty. Theater desacralizes the royal function and takes on a polemical function in the eyes of the community. In a time where theater audience is growing - the way royalty is being portrayed on stage- is going through a deep aestetical mutation with political if not anthropological consequences deeply resonates with the fear and worries of an era
Coudreuse, Anne. "Tentation et refus du pathos dans la littérature française du XVIIIe siècle : esthétique, éthique, réception." Paris 8, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA081318.
Full textThis survey of pathos in 18th century french literature is chiefly concerned with esthetical and ethical matters, as well as with the way they are re-interpreted in the 20th century. Through the reading of a sample of pathetic texts, a definition of pathos itself is envisaged : the word is applicable to whatever technique likely to raise emotion in the reader. The background to this study is thus multiple and ranges from rhetorics to the history of representation. Along with lexicological research, theoretical works of the period, such as those of abbe du bos, marmontel and chamfort, contribute to assert the importance of pathos in the whole 18th century production, especially in the fields of narration and drama. Pathos is somewhat of a melting pot of different esthetical forms and genres. It is a test for language and the body, through which new sexual identities become revealed, since not only women were then allowed to weep. Pathos systematically tends to involve the reader. Although lachrimose writing may be a taste peculiar to the siecle des lumieres, the fact remains that the shedding of tears is, in most cases, politically oriented, as witness its prevalence in legal proceedings or libertine novels. Yet, the seduction of pathos sometimes gives way to rejection. It is then dismissed as mere obscenity, and heavily mocked by parodic and ironic authors. A study of elegy and pathos in chenier's poetry, as well as a number of texts never republished since the 18th century (coqueley de chaussepierre, cubieres, bordes) will be found in the annex

Full textThis study is devoted to the tragic in love staëliennes fictions. The noble heroes engaged in a futile struggle against fate, knowing they will die. Their ambivalence prevents any living individual fulfillment in a society that lives a huge social failure, moral and political. Precarious lived happiness is followed by silence, the absence and the feeling of a deadly guilt in a space and a time initially tragic. The tragic subject undermines his moral and intellectual qualities. Lucid, powerless before the tragic knowledge, disillusioned about love and life, this being accomplished his tragic role: sacrifice and disappear. His renunciation gives a moving and sublime effect. Staël denounces the tragic through the crimes of the Revolution, the tyranny of Napoleon. Human suffering can be improved. The tragic staëlien gives an aesthetic lesson: the truth is in moral freedom and beauty of the soul

Full textBetween 1880 and 1945, theatre creators resort to pantomime to transform dramatic writing, acting and staging. Silent plays (written by Margueritte, Huysmans and Hennique, Champsaur or Gourmont) multiply at the end of the 19th century. As they reveal a « crisis of drama » (Szondi) and a « crisis of gesture » (Agamben), they stimulate the emerging theatre production (at the Cercle funambulesque in particular). As far as miming is concerned, two major trends compete. On the one hand, logocentrist mimes look for codified body movements modeled on language (Séverin, Hacks, Aubert). On the other hand, expressive mimes concentrate on attitude and look (Wague, Colette, Farina). Harmed by the advent of corporeal mime (founded by Decroux assisted by Barrault), pantomime nevertheless represented a major step in the design of stage rhythm and theatrical image (in Claudel, Cocteau, Artaud or Vitrac’s plays)

Full textThe present thesis falls within Gertrude Stein’s legacy and explores the concept of landscape as a driving force of scenic action and audience emotion that is independent of the plot.Although it is now common in the theatrical discourse, the association between theatre and landscape is not a given one. It is a sort of “counter-natural alliance” between two different realms and scales. The stage, which belongs to the realm of theatre, is built both poetically and architecturally to the human scale, whereas a landscape, which belongs to the realm of nature, can only be conceived of on an infinite scale. This “counter-natural alliance” can only be fertile if two emancipations occur: that of the landscape from the pictorial frame from which it was born, and that of drama from the Aristotelian matrix which constructed it.The thesis starts from a study of the evolution of the pictorial genre of the landscape and the concept of the same to examine how it infiltrated theatrical art. Contemporary theatrical writing followed in the footsteps of Gertrude Stein’s concept of the landscape play introduced in 1934 and was free of the necessity to tell a story. It conjures up a mental stage for actions which can only be envisaged in the infinitely small and infinitely large spaces of thought.Robert Wilson’s work crystallized Stein’s dramaturgic intuitions. It acted as a prism through which the stage esthetics of landscape was focused; therein, man and speech are decentralized within a space which opens towards the horizon. Many contemporary scenic works echo this, including those of Claude Régy, Maguy Marin, Joël Pommerat, Heiner Goebbels and François Tanguy, who play with the esthetic criteria of the landscape play which Robert Wilson’s work initially forged.The stage becomes a landscape through the disorientation of drama and its audience

Full textThis doctoral thesis comprises the critical edition, translation and analysis of the entire dramatic oeuvre of François de Cortète (1585-1667). This Agenais lord moved in the circles of Adrien de Monluc, patron and protector of numerous French and Occitan-language writers. Cortète’s plays, in part published posthumously by his sons, include two pastorals distinguished by a certain « concern for reality » in their representation of shepherds living on his seigneurial lands. LaMiramondo explores the three classical unities; in Ramonnet Cortète treats the comic ethnotype of the Gascon braggart (matamore), inverting its ridiculous characteristics by drawing one of the first portraits in Occitan literature of the francimand. A third play, Sancho al palays del Duc, a comedy in the style of Guérin de Bouscal, adapts for the stage a dozen chapters of the second book of Don Quixote. Following the example of the Toulouse poet Pierre Godolin, Cortète exploits the possibilities of the langue d’oc to produce dramatic works in the style of those of Europe’s elite contemporary playwrights. His three plays reflect the richness and diversity of the Theatre in France between 1630 and 1650, as well as the upheavals it lived through. This edition of the texts, based on the original manuscripts, tries to be as faithful as possible to them while preserving their readability. It also constitutes the first French translation of Cortète de Prades’ dramatic oeuvre. In the light of there being no indication of dating by the author of the chronology of composition of his plays and, moreover, thecritical bibliography being extremely small, the analysis undertaken in the introduction approaches the plays transversely and attempts to answer this chronological problem by specifying and exploring the major issues that define the uniqueness of this body of work

Full textThis thesis presents a critical edition of the Mystère des Trois Doms (1509), from a single manuscript now kept in the National Library of France under the reference n.a.f 18995. This drama play in Middle French contains approximately 11,000 verses, and tells the conversion and martyrdom of the three patron saints of the town of Romans, Séverin, Exupère and Félicien; it was composed for a performance, which took place in the city during three days, on 27, 28 and 29 May 1509. Our work includes several distinct and complementary aspects: philological and historical analysis, literary presentation and linguistic study. After presenting the objectives of our work, we analyze the preparation of the 1509 performance, from a writing point of view (analysis of the manuscript and the various stages of its composition) as well as from the material realization of the representation (construction of the theater and scenery). Indeed, we also have the book of accounts of the mystery play, which contains valuable informations on organizational modalities of its representation: it is a unique case, making this text of great importance for the history of the theater in France. We then propose a presentation of the text of the mystery, an analysis of sources, staging, and some elements of versification and stylistics. The language of the mystery being very rich, our linguistic study focuses on several aspects: graphics systems of the different scribes, regionality of the language and representation of orality. Finally, we present the principles that guided our critical edition of the three days of the play, followed by an account of the various variants and corrections contained in the manuscript, some notes on the text, a glossary and a bibliography. The appendices of the volume also contain several boards of the manuscript
Deharbe, Charlène. "La porosité des genres littéraires au XVIIIe siècle : le roman-mémoires et le théâtre." Thesis, Reims, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012REIML002/document.
Full textThis study is meant to highlight the influence of drama on the (French) memoir-novels of the 18th century. The narrator, be it a man or a woman, recollects his or her life from the moment they are coming into the world. This evocation and analysis of their earlier “I” is recalled in a first person narrative. The idea is to recount his or her social ascension, step by step, evoke his or her past mistakes and relate an unrequited love, in a tragic, sensitive or comic tone. Yet, these introspective novels paradoxically reach a theatrical dimension. The then famous playwrights are turned into fictional characters, their works are quoted, the heroes go to places where the art of drama is performed and, most importantly, the novelist resorts to elements which are characteristic features of drama : costumes, variations on specific characters and scenes, a dramatic construction, the use of the aesthetics of the tableau, the extent and distribution of the dialogues ; all of these contribute to place the reader in the position of the audience

Full textSince 1830, drama has taken over the Algerian conquest theme then backed the colonial expansion in North Africa, two major events which marked French political life from the 19th century to the early 20th century. As a real social and cultural overall phenomenon, it has strongly contributed to impose the colonial spirit and the empire idea into people's minds. But to what extent exactly has it played a cultural role in this expansion and domination policy? At what frequency and with which inflexions? Which representations of the "Arab" has drama conveyed, and how has it transformed them into an ideological discourse, through a live performance received by a given audience? Has it also been a place of distancing, even contesting colonization? Otherness is put into words with drama, but it is also and mostly brought onto the scene through the body and the voice of the actor, almost always French and white. The other "native", the one who puts question, worries or fascinates, gains an enhanced visibility, for the time of the performance. Otherness is reduced to stereotypes by some authors while others call them into question. The image of the Arab – but also of the Kabylian, the Tuareg, and the mixed-race – has followed the ideological currents that have underlain the great steps of the colonial expansion, until the beginnings of the decolonization movement. On the aesthetic level, is the representation of the "Arab" the opportunity of a renewal in terms of performance, language, setting, and costumes? Does seeking "exoticism" in spectacular forms give sometimes way to concern about meeting and knowing, or acknowledging, the other? The literary, cultural, social and historical significance of the subject requires to mobilize and cross aesthetic, dramaturgic, sociocritical and post colonial approaches

Full textOnce a stronghold of the pcf (french communist party) at the liberation, the drome became a weak link in 1981. During four decades the communist members' and voters' geographical location changed while keeping some basic features. Relying on rural groups at the liberation the pcf gradually became more urban, but the communist density in underpriviledged rural areas was always higher. The pcf remained a party of working class male adults. The workers were always in greater numbers. However the impact of workers and farmers lessened in favour of employees, as the middle classes gained more influence, especially the teaching profession who took the lion's share. More women were entering the party too. The control from the centre as regards the appointment of the federal secretary and the key role played by the candidature commission in the choice of the members of the federal committee remained the rule. The machinery was consistently under the control of a group of seasoned leaders. Nevertheless the necessity to replace former leaders by other reliable elements resulted in handing over the controls to the militants' own children. The way members looked at themselves, at the party at society and the world at large hardly changed - except for the years 1978-1981 - but communism in the drome was never monolithic. The geographical location, the sex, the occupation, the year one joined the party or the family background shaped several types of militants. Is this local form of communism lacking in originality ? of course the answer is twofold. The answer is yes if one considers but the pcf main political lines or the principal aspects of militancy. The answer is no if one is interested in the members' behaviour and sociology

Full textOur thesis, based on the Didactics of Languages and Cultures, explores the potential of theater text as a pedagogical tool in classes of French as a Foreign Language (FFL). In an interdisciplinary cross, we started our thesis project : « From the text to the stage - Didactics of French as a Foreign Language through Theatrical Approaches in the Republic of Moldova », based on excerpts from L’Avare by Molière and in a particularly new perspective of the appropriation of foreign culture, as well as the artistic flourishing of the pupil and the future citizen. It is in this dynamic that we set up as a teaching insertion tool a theater workshop, with a group of learners from two 12th forms that study FFL in one of the high schools from the North of Moldova.The purpose of this work was to present, firstly, a review of the current situation of language teaching in the Republic of Moldova in secondary education, more specifically the status of the French language which has the distinction of being in second position (since its significant decline that began in 2010) behind English, the first foreign language taught in major cities. We also wondered about the roles and place of textbooks in the Moldovan class of FFL. Then, we tried to identify the reasons for the difficulties of the oral production of Moldovan learners in two classes of 12th form studying FFL (their communicative competences being located between levels B1 and B2, according to the CEFRL scale of evaluation), research carried out by means of a survey.The second goal of our research is to reflect on the contributions that theatrical practice can bring to the development of oral expression in French as a foreign language, especially in the management of the difficulties related to the linguistic, psychological and relational insecurity of Moldovan learners that find it difficul to act out while speaking French.We studied the possibility of elaborating from a new didactic perspective, the assessment of the performance of learners in the framework of teaching by skills, based on texts chosen from the French comedy of the seventeenth century : though measuring the profitability of this teaching method, the type and quality of the interaction produced, the satisfaction of the learner and the effectiveness of the teaching.Two initial hypotheses guided our research :1. The verbal passivity of Moldovan learners in the FFL classroom is closely related to their feeling of insecurity in the practice of the language ;2. Theater in the FFL classroom encourages students to produce language in a meaningful situation that allows them to appropriate the language. Theatrical practices develop and promote improvisation and the spontaneous expression of learners. It is also a privileged vehicle for the transmission of socio - cultural elements of language.Our hypotheses were tested through a theatrical experience, thanks to it we managed to analyze the peculiarities of the influence of artistic activities on various elements like body, voice and gestures, but also from a relational point of view. This last element allowed us to observe more closely the role of the teacher, the specific pedagogical preparation that implies, the difficulties (choice of the text, preparation of the theater workshop, time management, the limits inherent to this dynamic and the obstacles that it may encounter), the possible evaluation method for such teaching, the taking into account of the learners' involvement capacities

Full textThis study analyszes the representation of cultural identity in sixteen drama texts written by Kenyans in English and in French for the Kenya National Drama Festival (KNDF). Considering the colonial history and the postcolonial context of Kenya, the task involved identifying the postcolonial markers within the texts, identifying major themes and traits constituting a Kenyan cultural identity and determining specific cultural identity. Using a comparative approach, the study draws from both postcolonial and theatre theories. The postcolonial concepts touching on identity through language, culture and representation are identified and analyzed in respect to the Kenyan context. For this reason, the study narrows down to the theoretical works of Edward Saïd, Homi K. Bhabha, Chinua Achebe and Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o. The study reveals that the Kenyan population is faced with a multiplicity of cultural choices brought about by the colonization experience, the new practices associated with globalization, as well as the complexities and challenges of daily life. The KNDF proves to be an avenue for sensitizing the public on new phenomena, for denouncing societal ills and for promoting African traditional norms. It is apparent that the use of European languages does not hinder the representation of cultural reality of the local society. Kenya therefore attests to cultural mobility seen in the progression from the traditional system towards a more globalized disposition

Full textThe emergence of a capitalist ‘spirit’ (Weber) in England and France at the turn of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries played a leading role in reconfiguring the relation between avaritia and cupiditas which determine the whole semantic field of usury and interest. This thesis postulates that this evolution is perceptible in French and British comedy at that time, in particular for some of the playwrights who staged miserly characters imprinted in our collective imagination. Starting from a comic type as common in Greek and Roman drama as it was in the well-established religious canon in the Christian West, a new understanding of money as object and as sign leads to the construction of a truly modern figure of avarice.Shylock, Volpone (Mosca) and Harpagon, hang on to a almost divine idea of gold and the more or less known world of money, medium they think they control through their treasure, and which is about to become the universal equivalent of any good. Those characters fit perfectly into this modern dynamic of economic, cultural and social exchanges, but they also contribute, with their strictly usurious speech, to its depreciation. Their entourage tries to tame this « lability » of values (Simmel) generated by the economy of the usurer-miser to a new order – a cosmic, ethical or political order. Conflicts are resolved by a court of law, external discriminatory authority and pretext for the mise-en-abyme of social judgment. The analysis of these denouements allows one to understand the work of each author in the comic form and function, through the text, the genres, or an aesthetic of space. It shows how much each author strived to value the contribution of his art to the public, in a time of socio-economic crisis

Full textIn this doctoral dissertation, we are studying a selection of both Mexican and French literary works related to the historic events of the Second French Intervention in Mexico (1862-1867) and of the Second Mexican Empire (1864-1867). This body of works has been published between the XIXth and the XXIth century and has been selected, both because their poetic and political thoughts are emblematic of this period and because they have contributed to the construction of a Mexican cultural and identity iconography. We have decided to select the fiction and theatrical genres, to carry out a comparative and diachronic analysis. The decision of which literary works and authors to include has been made based on how both the French Intervention and the way it has been depicted in literature, have been dealt with in particular in each literary work and each author we considered to studied. The studied novels belong to the sub-genre of serialized fiction in the XIXth century with, on the French side, Benito Vázquez (1869) by Lucien Biart and Doña Flor (1877) by Gustave Aimard and, on the Mexican side, Clemencia (1869) by Manuel Altamirano and El Cerro de las Campanas (1868) by Juan Mateos. As far as theatre plays are concerned, we have carried out a comparative study of both Corona de Sombra (1943) by Rodolfo Usigli and Charlotte et Maximilien (1945) by Maurice Rostand. We have completed our analysis with a complementary study of El Tuerto es Rey (1970) by Carlos Fuentes. Regarding more contemporaneous historic and literary creations, we chose to include Noticias del Imperio (1987) by Fernando del Paso and Yo, el francés by Jean Meyer (2002). This corpus allows to carry out a comparative, linguistic, semiotic and literary analysis of afore-mentioned works. Such analysis calls for a thorough reflection on the interpretation of conflict, an armed and political conflict which influenced both History and Mexican and French literary productions

Full textL’arrivée de Krejča, dans les années 1960, sur la scène du Théâtre National de Belgique s’inscrit dans la dynamique des échanges théâtraux européens et dans une volonté diplomatique de rapprochement entre la Tchécoslovaquie et la Belgique. La thèse insiste sur ces rencontres entre les artistes belges francophones et les artistes internationaux car elles jouent un rôle fondamental, auquel prend part Krejča, dans l’histoire du théâtre belge de langue française. Fort de sa réappropriation de la tradition théâtrale tchèque et des concepts de Stanislavskij, Krejča est l’un des premiers à apporter en Belgique francophone un regard dépassant la dimension représentationnelle de la première lecture du texte et à proposer une alternative au manque laissé par le retard de l’avant-garde théâtrale belge francophone. Sa poétique, principalement influencée par le théâtre atelier d’E.F. Burian, le théâtre poétique de Frejka, le civilisme d’Hilar, les théories préfigurant la sémiologie théâtrale initiée par l’école de Prague et par les développements du « Mchat », rencontre un accueil mitigé parmi les journalistes polygraphes mais ne manque pas d’impressionner certains animateurs de la scène théâtrale belge à l’instar de Janine Patrick ou de Marc Liebens. Aussi trouve-t-elle notamment un prolongement dans le Théâtre du Parvis.
La thèse situe l’apport le plus évident de la poétique krejčaïenne en Belgique francophone dans le traitement dramaturgique, polyphonique et préfigurant le théâtre postdramatique, que le metteur en scène propose. A Louvain-la-Neuve, c’est à nouveau la puissance de la tradition tchèque et la conviction philosophique de Krejča qui impressionnent ses collaborateurs et se déclinent à travers les excroissances théâtrales francophones belges dont la plus manifeste est une expérience théâtrale, toujours en cours aujourd’hui :le théâtre de l’Éveil.
La dissertation délimite d’abord les spécificités de la poétique théâtrale de Krejča, puis, après une analyse des mises en scène de Krejča, elle retrace et détaille les diverses formes sous lesquelles son esthétique se manifeste :transmission d’un héritage théâtral (avant-garde historique tchèque, sémiologie théâtrale développée par l’Ecole de Prague) et littéraire (mise à l’honneur de Schnitzler et de Nestroy), prolongement de la recherche théâtrale jusqu’à l’approche postdramatique (révélation de la dramaticité des pièces de Tchékhov, importation du théâtre musical), regards dramaturgique et philosophique, écriture dramatique (influence sur l’écriture d'auteurs dramatiques, Krejča-personnage dans des pièces d’acteur)…
/ The thesis focuses on Czech theatre from first avant-garde to second avant-garde; mainly it is focusing on Otomar Krejča’s theatre and its relationship with Belgian theatre within the second Czech avant-garde theatre to the end of the Normalization.
Krejča worked an intensive part of his artistic life in Belgium. His Belgian theatrical activity can be divided into two distinct periods. The first one was coinciding with the foundation of his “Theatre Beyond the Gate” (Divadlo za branou) in Prague in 1965 and took place in the Belgian National Theatre in Brussels. Those years were squaring with Czechoslovakian destalinization and were particularly productive in the artistic field. In Brussels Krejča directed four plays: in 1965, Hamlet, in 1966, The Seagull, in 1970, Three Sisters, in 1978, Romeo and Juliet. The first three plays occurred before the Normalization and his departure in specific exile. The last one marked the beginning of his second period in Belgium, closely bound to Louvain-la-Neuve city. The two following Krejča’s productions were first created for the Festival d’Avignon: in 1978, Waiting for Godot and Lorenzaccio in 1979, before being performed at Atelier théâtral Jean Vilar in Louvain-La-Neuve. The three following plays were the last of Krejča’s Belgian works: Three Sisters in 1980, A. Schnitzler’s The Green Cockatoo in 1981 and Dostoevsky’s The Possessed adapted by Krejča himself in 1982.
In Belgium, the reception of his plays was mitigated. Duality between critics can be explained by Krejča’s new regard on plays, by Krejča’s use of dramaturgy. Krejča’s productions in Belgium were innovating because through dramaturgy they paved the way for something new :it was the end of a romantic Hamlet in the Shakespearian tradition and the end of Pitoëff’s aesthetic in Chechov’s productions.
Krejča’s work of art, impregnated by Czech tradition theatre of avant-garde, influenced his Belgian collaborators. Krejča was influenced by leaders in Czech first avant-garde theatre such as Burian, Frejka, theatrical theory of Honzl and Hilar’s theatre conception. When Krejča started to work in Belgium, the country was undergoing a theatrical revolution. At the end of the 1960s, French-speaking Belgium lived at the rhythm of its first avant-garde in staging. According to me, this fact is the main explanation to Krejča’s significance in French-speaking Belgium. Thanks to Krejča’s Belgian productions, a part of the first Czech theatrical avant-garde and the second Czech theatrical avant-garde penetrated in Belgium.
All of Krejča’s concepts (human beings, ethic of responsibility, importance of dramaturgy, personal appropriation of Stanislavski’s approach) slowly instilled French-speaking Belgian theatrical life. Sure an evident mark of continuity of his aesthetic cannot be seen in the long time, nevertheless Krejča’s influence was considerable and briefly materialized in many fields. It is obviously still vivid in the way some actors play, feel and teach theatre.

Full textA Mad World, my Masters is one of Thomas Middleton’s early plays. It was first performed in 1605 by the Children of Saint Paul’s in London. This comedy had never been translated into French. It was revived in its original version in 1998, for the first time since the printing of the Second Quarto (1640) at Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre in London. The bare stage and open playing space of this replica made it possible to draw the best out of this exuberante comedy and to make its dramatic efficiency clear to modern audiences. Translating the play also made it possible to analyse in detail the complexities of the language of an author who had been little studied until his Complete Works were published in 2007 by Gary Taylor and John Lavagnino

Full textHow can a work of art be politically efficient without being militant? Vinaver’s answer to this question, formulated at the end of the 1940s, is unusual: the work will be political through its own materiality; its ideas will be immanent to the writing itself. But the playwright does not leave it at that and suggests that the true question can to be rephrased in even simpler terms: "how can a work of art be politically efficient?" ("militant" works of art can’t be said to be really efficient, and if they are for a while, their action does not last for very long). My work has therefore been to examine the materiality of Vinaver’s work. Its main principle is that of collage (juxtapositions and non-intentionality). A whole body of archives had to be closely looked at. And yet, why did Vinaver choose theater, and why did he stand by that choice? Specifically because, as a genre, theater allows the voice and the ideas of the author to be subdued. For 11 September 2001, Vinaver’s last play, he no longer invented anything anymore but limited his work to cutting and pasting ; the author disappears behind the composer. This play is essential to the whole understanding of Vinaver’s poetics – this is where we find more collages and more poetry, more of the real and more of the ritual (the efficiency of his theater is notably expressed through the creation of a community, or a "society against the State"). The fact that the four comprehensive studies of his work (Ubersfeld, Elstob, Bradby et Göbler- Lingens) were published before 2001 was decisive in deciding to start and complete this PhD thesis
Capique, Luc. "Etude et édition critique annotée de Carlos V en Francia de Lope de Vega." Thesis, Pau, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PAUU1009.
Full textThe theatrical production of the Spanish Golden Age pro-poses numerous plays dealing with contemporary historical subjects. The interest for this historical material can be particu-larly observed in a symbolic playwright of this period: Lope de Vega. Although the purpose of this material can vary, it often possesses an extradramatic interest. The choice of events staged by Lope de Vega is often connected to corresponding events at the time of writing. The play Carlos V en Francia, written in 1604, is a part of these historical plays where we notice an alteration of events in connection with the political current events of Lope de Vega’s time. The work of the thesis presented here proposes a critical edition with notes of Carlos V en Francia by Lope de Vega, preceded by an introductory study which focuses foremost on its historic aspect and its extradramatic interest; and on the dramatic mechanisms de-veloped by the playwright in the system of the characters, the versification and the structure

S’inscrivant dans le sillage des travaux de François Moureau, Christian Biet et Guy Spielmann sur la dramaturgie fin de règne, cette thèse s’intéresse à la manière dont s’est effectué le passage de la comédie classique à la comédie fin de règne. En prenant l’exemple d’Edme Boursault (1638-1701), écrivain mineur du XVIIe siècle, elle entend mettre en lumière une double trajectoire, celle d’un genre et celle d’un auteur. L’étude repose sur l’hypothèse selon laquelle le corpus comique de Boursault, produit entre 1661 et 1701, conserve les marques des mutations esthétiques qui a mené au théâtre fin de règne. Il s’agit donc de comprendre les enjeux qui ont conduit à un renouvellement de l’écriture dramaturgique, mais aussi d’observer la manière dont pouvait se construire une carrière littéraire chez un écrivain mineur de la seconde moitié du XVIIe siècle. Depuis ses premières comédies et farces (Le médecin volant, Le Mort vivant, Le jaloux endormy) jusqu’à ses comédies moralisantes (Les Fables d’Esope, Esope à la Cour), Boursault a su s’adapter aux changements que connaissent la société française et le théâtre, et a mis en œuvre diverses stratégies, tant sociales que littéraires. Par le moyen de l’histoire littéraire, entre sociologie de la littérature, poétique des genres et théorie de la réception, la thèse se penche sur les réseaux de sociabilité de Boursault (salons précieux, cercles littéraires, mécénat) et analyse son théâtre comique, tout en tenant compte des conditions de représentation et de la réception du public. L’étude tend à démontrer que cette évolution dramaturgique s’est faite graduellement, souvent au prix d’une coexistence de deux esthétiques au sein d’une même œuvre. Cherchant à mesurer l’apport de Boursault à la comédie et au comique du XVIIe siècle, la thèse révèle que le passage du classicisme au fin de règne implique chez le dramaturge un changement de stratégie. Entre 1660 et 1700, l’auteur passe en effet d’une stratégie du cursus où ses tendances polygraphiques le placent, à une stratégie du succès misant sur l’innovation et l’originalité. Ce faisant, l’écrivain explore les limites d’un genre qu’il participe à redéfinir, tant sur le plan de la structure et des thématiques que sur celui des personnages et du comique. L’examen du passage de la farce classique à la comédie moralisante, celui du comique burlesque au rire jaune du XVIIIe siècle positionne donc indéniablement Boursault comme un écrivain de transition.

Full textThe second half of the eighteenth-century is characterized by a thorough transformation of the political world, a change which reflected the simultaneous development of public criticism and patriotism. Theatre plays a key role in this process. Following Voltaire, a variety of playwrights use French history for their plots, and in so doing they update genres and audience expectations. Alongside epic or sentimental plays of the troubadour genre, bio-dramas of “Great Men” soon appeared, followed by dramatic apotheoses and the Revolution’s “faits historiques”. This varied corpus of plays – performed ¬ or not, on official or private stages – constitutes what we may call the national drama of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution.By studying these texts and their reception, I analyse how the theatrical representation of French history and its ability to act as a mirror between the past and the present contribute to the contemporary changes in thought. National drama not only showcases the esthetical and dramaturgic debates of this turning point between classicism and romanticism, but it additionally implicates issues of politics and memory: it is more than simple moral entertainment, it has civic value. These productions create a collective historical heritage with its own myths and legends, but the playwrights’ contradictory ideological intentions and the audiences’ active participation also make this theatre a site of dissent. National drama also expresses contemporary social strains and seeks to evoke specific emotions such as admiration, empathy, outrage and horror in the face of the past’s wounds

Full textThe purpose of this doctoral thesis in drama studies is to investigate the models and practices in character writing in Quebecois drama in the years 2000, and from this investigation, which will have both a theatrical approach – through the study of plays and the elaboration of a typology of characters – and genetic – by entering into the authors’ factory to understand how they create their characters –, to identify the figure(s) of the playwright in this creative context. In Quebecois playwriting, characters still survive, while they are constantly questioned in other writing contexts. However, far from perpetuating realism as it prevails in American character writing, Quebecois authors in the years 2000 create deeply deterritorialized characters whose psychological depth disappears to make room for intertextual and metatheatrical profoundness. These creature-characters invite us into the authors’ factory to examine the sharing of voices they perform so as to circumvent North American drama’s still dominant realism. The four poles of character writing – language, body, intertext and stage – will then allow us to analyze the writing practices of several authors who belong to different generations and followed different trainings: Normand Chaurette, Daniel Danis, François Godin, Etienne Lepage and Larry Tremblay. These authors, who constantly have to deal with an otherness whether it is real – the production contexts in Quebec lead authors to interact with the other actors of drama’s creative process – or fictional – authors are deeply inhabited by others who speak through them –, find themselves demultiplied inside the writing process. It then seems that, when facing this demultiplication and the growing difficulty to make their voice heard, authors in Quebec are chosing the path of autopoiesis and using their “I” as authors in their latest creations as a material and as a supercharacter which dominates fiction. The act of writing then acquires a unified voice, constantly on the fringe of autofiction and autobiography, which inhabits plays that would may no longer be able to bring forth the other, a character which would be entirely separated from its creator’s voice

Full textThe present study questions the use and operation of criminality in Pierre Corneille’s plays, in a double aspect : through the elaboration of the ethos of great criminal characters and through the effects of their spectacularization upon the stage – the latter depending on the former – based on an analysis of the aesthetics of admiration [wonder] that the playwright produces. It tends to show how operates and is operated the « wonderization » of such characters, which allows an exceptionally reflexive dialectical tension between essences and appearances and a reflection of the power of spectacularity, especially through feminine characters, which are here considered as mirroring images of the power of theatrical art itself. It interrogates more generally the question of agency, and its functioning interactions between activity and passivity, between action and passion. Eventually, the amazing criminals, not unlike any cornelian subject, appears to be freely defined by their greatest passion of all : self-passion, which can serve as an alternative name for their « gloire ». Their spectacularization thus revolves around a dramatization of the self, unveiling and offering it to the eyes of the rest of the world, in an attempt to make the projective ethos coincide with the effective ethos. Such dynamics are often characterized by fatal leanings, death being the ultimate expression of their gloire upon the stage

Full textThis research project aims to analyse the links between drama critique and political commitment, manifest in a number of reviews from the mid-1960s to the early 1980s. This investigation focuses on a corpus of articles published in Les Temps Modernes, Esprit and La Quinzaine Littéraire, most often signed by, respectively, Renée Saurel, AlfredSimon, and Gilles Sandier. This critique’s politicisation is most evident in four main areas, namely: its conception of the social function of theatre; in the selected criteria used to analyse performances; in its active involvment in the artistic and intellectual debates of the time; as well as in the very act of critical writing. The particular form of theatre critique emerging from these reviews tends to differ both from the journalistic column and from the scholarly commentary. These reviews’ publishing frequency allows this form of critique toremain topical in regards to contemporary french (and particularly public parisian) theatre; however, these texts also seek to break away from the traditional model of the theatre review and its impressionist mode. This critical movement attempts to explicate its criteria of appraisal by basing itself on the theoretical issues raised by Marxism, brechtism and/or structuralism. In so doing, it opens up its focus to include new controversial areas, such as debates on cultural policies. Despite aknowledging some form of autonomy to aesthetic issues, this critique analyses writing and mise-En-Scène through the lens of political efficiency, as a means to develop a genuine popular theatre. These reviews, considered here both as materialised spaces for intellectual debate and as objects of symbolic authority, become fertile loci in which to foster a new form of critique aiming to combine the development of theoretical frameworks with political commitment
Rauer, Selim. "Les frontières de l'exil, ou les figures et territoires de l'étranger." Thesis, Paris 3, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019PA030057.
Full textThis doctoral dissertation, entitled The Borders of Exile: Figures and Territories of Foreignness, reinterprets the notion of the border as an expanding territory of estrangement and seclusion in the aftermath of colonialism and the Shoah, in an era characterized by global market economies. While allegedly situated beyond racial and sexual hegemonic claims, Selim Rauer shows how this globalized economy, in fact, recreates or intensifies a concept of “zone(s)” --as defined by Frantz Fanon in Les damnés de la terre, 1961--that draws centers and margins, and establishes sites of domination structured by a historical and political unconscious. At the core of this unconscious lies the figure of the enemy or the adversary. The latter is an essential biopolitical and theological representation of otherness and foreignness through which a specific border definition can be established as limit rather than hyphen. Thus, in this project, Rauer scrutinizes a multidimensional literary corpus comprised of works by figures such as Jean Genet (1910-1986), Patrick Modiano (1945), Bernard-Marie Koltès (1948-1989), Koffi Kwahulé (1956), Marie NDiaye (1967), Wajdi Mouawad (1968), and Léonora Miano (1973), each of whose works investigate a certain definition and practice of power and sovereignty as part of an ethical and moral reflection on “evil,” or as Rüdiger Safranski defined it, as the moral and ethical burden that accompanies the practice of freedom (Evil, or the Drama of Freedom, 1997)
Leyicka, Bissanga Gisèle. "Michel Butor : du roman à l'effet romanesque." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014BOR30010/document.
Full textMichel Butor’s work is different from the others by its crossing genres which it shows the limits of. Referring to the generic classification inherited from the nineteenth century, literary criticism often divides the work in poems, novels, and unclassifiable texts, while maintaining the idea that he had neglected the novelistic form after 1960. Still, the choice of the work that includes several forms of a hybrid text will now determine the genre.The first part deals with the mutation of the literary forms in the work of Michel Butor. We will examine the question of the choice of novelistic form by the author. Generic hybridization will be Butor’s favorite means of artistic expression, because the search of new aspects of Butor’s poetics reveals that it is corrupted by dramatic metaphor. So, we will see the interaction between the novel and radio drama through the reading of Mobile: study for a representation of the United States, Airline Network and Niagara.The second part is about the drama and shows radiophonic aspects of the postnovelistic work through different levels of reading set up by Patrice Pavis (Discursive, Narrative, Actantial, Ideological and Unconscious), and the production system in relation with the recording studio. The notion of “novelistic effect” will therefore be the result of an obsession of novelistic form produced by reading.The third part analyses poetic prose of radio drama and the unconscious and ideological structures of the work, based on the importance of oral discourse which reveals the ambiguity between the form (radio drama) and the individual attitude and the group, marked by the inability to pass on a coherent perception of the world because of their prejudices

Full textThis M.A. thesis analyzes four plays by the French author Bernard-Marie Koltès. Resolutely focused on the study of written text, it begins by analyzing several disarrangements and a culture of ambiguity in the treatment of place, time and identity. The first goal of this interrogation is the deepening of some avenues already detected by the critique (marginality of places and characters, the constant presence of violence and death, etc.) in the search for a global meaning to a set of textual practices related to the notion of limit or boundary. Operating a change of perspective, the second part of the thesis focuses on violence and on the terms and consequences of its textualisation, in a simultaneous study of the creative act and of the practice of reading. Based on the theory of the sacrifice as developed by René Girard in La violence et le sacré, and nourished by the crossing of some important texts by various thinkers (Aristotle, Nietzsche, Artaud, Foucault, Derrida, Adorno, etc.), the analysis seeks the inscription of Koltesian text’s literariness in a broader enterprise having to do with violence, its regulation and its dissemination. At the intersection of theater studies, literature and philosophy, this study is an attempt to understand Koltès’ drama (especially Roberto Zucco) as a ritual sacrifice in order to obtain a better comprehension of its relationship to reality and some of its characteristics as for the cathartic mechanism.

Full textThe emergence of a capitalist ‘spirit’ (Weber) in England and France at the turn of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries played a leading role in reconfiguring the relation between avaritia and cupiditas which determine the whole semantic field of usury and interest. This thesis postulates that this evolution is perceptible in French and British comedy at that time, in particular for some of the playwrights who staged miserly characters imprinted in our collective imagination. Starting from a comic type as common in Greek and Roman drama as it was in the well-established religious canon in the Christian West, a new understanding of money as object and as sign leads to the construction of a truly modern figure of avarice. Shylock, Volpone (Mosca) and Harpagon, hang on to a almost divine idea of gold and the more or less known world of money, medium they think they control through their treasure, and which is about to become the universal equivalent of any good. Those characters fit perfectly into this modern dynamic of economic, cultural and social exchanges, but they also contribute, with their strictly usurious speech, to its depreciation. Their entourage tries to tame this « lability » of values (Simmel) generated by the economy of the usurer-miser to a new order – a cosmic, ethical or political order. Conflicts are resolved by a court of law, external discriminatory authority and pretext for the mise-en-abyme of social judgment. The analysis of these denouements allows one to understand the work of each author in the comic form and function, through the text, the genres, or an aesthetic of space. It shows how much each author strived to value the contribution of his art to the public, in a time of socio-economic crisis.

Full textThis study explores the effects of the writing of multilingual identity texts, supported by multilingual drama expression workshops, on the relationship with writing of French as a second language (FSL) learners. Additionally, we compare these effects with traditional teaching practices for writing. The participants were recent immigrants with limited prior schooling educated at the secondary school level. This multiple case study was performed with both an experimental group and a control group. Participant observations and semi-directed interviews were conducted with each of the eight participants in order to describe their relationship with writing. The main contribution of this research project is that the researcher links a key concept in second language teaching, students’ literacy engagement, to their relationship with writing. Thus a new notion is proposed: the FSL students’ relationship with writing enhanced by literacy engagement (designated with the abbreviation “RÉ+” in French). Results confirm the relevance of this innovative approach which has an influence on the four dimensions of RÉ+: affective, praxeological, conceptual and axiological. The benefits of this approach are that students associate writing with positive feelings. Moreover, they adopt an analytical point of view on language learning, which leads to the development of metacognitive abilities. In essence, the effects on RÉ+ are different from those of traditional writing teaching practices, which, in comparison, seem unable to fully engage students emotionally and cognitively in writing tasks.
