Heberlé, Jean-Philippe. "L'écriture de la dualité dans les oeuvres vocales majeures de Michael Tippett." Paris 4, 1998. http://www.theses.fr/1998PA040263.
Full textThis study deals with Michael Tippets’ operas, oratorios and symphony no. 3. As an English composer, librettist and essayist, Tippett is with Benjamin Britten one of the most famous musicians of what is known as the second English renaissance in music. If one theme is enhanced in his operas, oratorios and music in general, it is duality, that is the relation governing the link and the dialogue between two different elements which coexist with each other. Yet, duality cannot be circumscribed to the themes because the writing of Michael Tippetts’ main vocal works also tackles this question through a series of mirror effects and discrepant elements. After giving a short biography of michael Tippett and focusing upon the manifestations of duality in the vocal works which are analyzed here, one will deal with the writing of duality by probing the text as much as the relation between the words and the music. As far as duality appears in the writing of the text, Jungian symbolism, intertextuality, theatricality have to be considered. When the relation between the words and the music is concerned, duality is encapsulated in the parallelisms and contradictions which at times may be conveyed by the music itself as much as by the symbolism of voices and instruments when seen in connection with the text

Full textWhen the African countries were granted their independence in the sixties, the people of Africa had such dreams that they were indeed at the dawn of something new, since they had lived through such oppression, under the rule of those who had colonized them. The opposite, however, took place, because these new leaders who were put into place, saw themselves as monarchs with divine rights and distinguished themselves by all kinds of abuses, which sank these countries and their inhabitants into extreme suffering and tremendous decline never before experienced in history. Today, forty years after this compromised sovereignty, the people wonder about their future and continue their bitter fight against these ominous military regimes with the hopes of regaining their stolen freedom. In the realm of art, the romantic view of Sony Labou Tansi, beyond the globally somber report of actual conditions, is as well a testimony of a surge toward a new temporality, where hope is depicted on the horizon. This writing, then, describes a violence which obeys the argument between tyranny and emancipation; that is, a crossing of paths from which a happy society is born, with its sudden change of mentality. This new society, which is a foundational model, is a model on which one must build

Full textOn September 30th, 1839, in a letter dated from Bastia, Merimee wrote to his friend from Avignon, Requien, that he is glad to find in Corsica, where he is doing an inspection tour of historical monuments, “man's pure nature”. Starting from this statement, we have tried to define a quest for unity in Merimee’s who, in the 1820's, is trying to write on the subject of duel. Duality or deceit, terms which are shown as equivalent in the one but last writing of the author, Lokis (1868), will then come out in his work. Such is, in fact, the finding to which Merimee comes up, a dual world that diffracts under the light of analysis and which, finally, reveals a mosaic. As such should we understand the result of Merimee’s thought who, in 1833, thinking his last hour approaching, puts his novels together under the generic title of mosaique. In fact 1833 didn't point to the death of Merimee but to the end of a cycle. Indeed, in 1834, he is appointed to the post of general inspector of historical monuments; for his series of tours he takes as a start the south of France and most noticeably the Roussillon where he will set up the intrigue of his novel published in 1837, la Vénus d'Ille. The first work of this second part of the author's life ushers in a new concept on duality this time brought out from the erudition of the historian and archeologist and applied to a religious theme. It is, more precisely, and as Merimee points out concerning the architectural revolution which took place between the 12th and 13th century in his essay Sur l'architecture religieuse du moyen âge also written in 1837, “to show two styles apparently so different when one considers each from his own point of development, will merge we may say to their point of transition”. It brings us to believe that this kind of thought could well be applied to the crossing from pantheism to christianism which La Vénus d'Ille is a picture of
Husson, Didier. "Logique des possibles narratifs." Paris 7, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA070105.
Full textThis thesis studies the logical relations and the major or minor compatibilities which link together the different variables of fiction. The first part aims to select these variables, supported by the concepts implemented by the studies on fiction. It then tries to appraise the coherence of the possible narrative choices through the relations existing between the status of the narrator, the point of view, the moment of the narration and the existence of fiction recipients. Thus are underlined, and illustrated by examples, the natural aspect of some associations, the possibilities of infringements of logic and the consequences which can be expected from these
Gauffre, Marie-Jeanne. "Tissages et métissages : dualité et totalité dans l'œuvre poétique et romanesque de Kojo Laing." Toulouse 2, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003TOU20068.
Full textDuality and wholeness are major driving forces in the writings of Kojo Laing, which convey the vision of a dual world characterized by the opposition between the inner and the outer. The outer is mainly the Other, i. E. The others versus the self (youth poems), communal tradition versus individual impulses directed towards change (Search Sweet Country), Europe versus Africa (Woman of the Aeroplanes and Major Gentl and the Achimota Wars). Yet, Laing's vision is not at all binary. For him, wholeness, based on the Relation with the Other, is plural, heterogeneous, complex : it is an unstable and ever changing process. Hybridity, "métissage" in French, an outstanding feature of this ideal, finds an apt emblem in kente, a traditional women cloth made of narrow bright-coloured widths sewns together. Indeed, viewed as the expansion of the self, as interchange, as a non-totalitarian utopia, hybridity transcends the opposition between the inner and the outer in a constant in-and-out shuttle-like movement which is reflected in Laing's dense, inventive and playful writing
Michaut, Cécile. "Gémeaux, androgynes, hermaphrodites, Narcisse : unité et dualité du corps politique, 1562-1676." Clermont-Ferrand 2, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008CLF20008.
Full textThe double monsters (creatures with two sexes, two bodies or two heads, such as androgynes, hermaphrodites, joint Gemini) were, in the 16th and 17th centuries, notable figures because there were many them and because they raised distressing issues. The double monster is, on the one hand, a sign announcing schims and civils wars, a sick or deviant figure ; but it is also sometimes announcing reconciliation and is a symbol of concord, peace and love. This study aims at reflecting on the meaning of these double monters. Our hypothesis is that they hold a discourse of a political nature on the Other (among a corpsb or a city). But that discourse, from the first religious conflicts (1562) to the publication of The Southern Land Known by Foigny (1676), evolved. The first part of this study is devoted to the definition of the single family of myths, including Hermaphrodite, the Androgyne, Janus, the Gemini and Narcissus. It shows how, from Antiquity onwards, those figures have been questioning the relation to the other. The second part reveals how those figures have become, in the 16th and 17th centuries, the ambivalent political emblens of war as well as peace, of order as well as disorder. The third part explains how novelists and poets have concentrates on the hermaphrodite. It analyses how and why that equivocal and hunted monster became, in the 17th century, the mouthpiece of a new State that does no longer tolerate otherness, and yet needs it

Full textImportant role in the life and work of the Danish playwright Kaj Munk (1898-1944), they have never been the object of a close study. Branching off from the classical works of g. Bachelard, g. Durand, c. G. Jung and m. Eliade, the thesis Kaj Munk or the logic of the imaginary proposes guidelines for an entirely new reading of the body of Kaj Munk's work. This way of looking at the problem shows that a series of associated obsessions takes up the center stage: i. E. An idealized mother figure which reminds the reader of the archetypal virgin with child. At the same time, the idea of the protection of life is one the recurrent themes in this work. The analysis of the imaginary world of the author and the interpretation of the symbols in his plays reveal the role played by life and victory over death in his subconscious
Kim-Ko, Kye-young. "La figure de l'opposition dans l'œuvre de Diderot." Paris 4, 1998. http://www.theses.fr/1998PA040068.
Full textThe general plan of this study consists in combining the mechanism of the literary “transformism” of the thought and the idea of a distinctive style in order to extricate “the particular grammar” of Diderot. The notion of opposition is introduced in this frame work as a decisive factor which orientates the dynamic process by which the form and the sense generate each other. The first part is devoted to the analysis of the system of character, support, from which the author develops all the exploitation of the system of opposition. The second part consists of the analysis of the techniques of the novel which bring out the equivalence of contraries and make coincide several narrative registers. The third part is intended to reveal certain verbal invariant of the diderotien speech which transcribe the double and antagonistic thought as well as the reversibility of the things, phenomena, values and human relations. The reduplication, the dividing and the mechanism of inversion reveal as the figure recurrent which explains the employment of certain verbal automatism of the characters and the composition of stories. The opposition makes the works of Diderot open and polysemic in its interpretation. Therefore it becomes the generative of the signification of the work

Full textThe topic of this study is Faulkner's imagery, considered as a specific language. Using concepts derived from structuralist and formalist criticism, this essay attempts to describe the vocabulary and syntax that characterize Faulkner's imagery, in order to determine the rules that explain the co-presence of some of these images within a specific textual unit and how they evolve as the narrative develops. The analysis focuses on defining a seminal signifying unit, both descriptive and narrative, out of which Faulkner's imagery unfolds through a complex network of reformulations and variations. Systematic textual study allows us to explore the various images that recur in Faulkner's poetry and fiction from 1919 to 1942: characters (mother and father images, lovers, doubling figures), settings (pastoral landscapes, ruins, rivers, the wilderness, etc. ) but also types of narratives (love quests, flight situations, confrontations, monument building, etc. ). The purpose of this analysis is to shed light on the relations that connect Faulkner's images and how these help create meaning in the text

Thesis, Université Grenoble Alpes (ComUE), 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017GREAL029/document.
Full textIn this piece of work, we have discussed on the ‘autobiographical novel’ as a literary genre exemplified by three Algerian works written in French – namelyTaos Amrouche’s Jacinthe noire de, Mouloud Feraoun’s Le Fils du pauvre and Assia Djebar’s L'amour la fantasia.First and foremost, the autobiographical novel – recently defined by modern poetic – marks itself off from the other genres with its strategy of generic ambiguity. This has been systematically noticed in these works, especially from a structural point of view where text components play the part of generic operators such as paratext, intertext, but also enunciating mechanisms on fictional and referential axes.Starting from the contextual standpoint, other ambiguities nurture the nature of the genre we have wished to tackle through the concept of duality that is unveiled by the social and individual context. This very concept has then been developed into the concept of the double. It affects mostly the figure of the author as well as their characters.Moving beyond the figure of the double amounts to questioning the very unity of the Self and personal identity before rendering a final verdict on various theories that tried to implement reception that may hermeneutically validate the genre in all its diverging acceptations.Keywords: autobiographical novel, fiction, reality, ambiguity, duality, double, self identity, amalgam, reception
Costea, Diana. "Le temps verbal, facteur de cohérence textuelle : logique combinatoire des temps dans la formation du texte." Nice, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008NICE2009.
Full textThe tense is not only a local cohesion factor at the level of the utterances, it takes into account the global meaning of the text. We have proposed ourselves to demonstrate that the tense has a very important function within the context of the relations between sentences which assure the coherence of a textual sequence. We have also noticed that the comprehension of a combinatorial analysis of tenses (even if it seems strange to the first approach) passes through a mental representation of the contents, through the degree of importance given by the narrator or by the reader to such-or-such element of the text. We add to this the particular pragmatic rules and to the aspectual classes, the adverbs and the temporal connectors, the understanding of the world, so everything that composes the cotext and the context. The whole temporal structure of a sequence is subjected to the logic, the sens of a tense does not exist in itself, but only in its cotextual and contextual environments
Rouquette, Nadine. "Minotaure et labyrinthe, l'indicible et l'invisible : expression du mythe dans la littérature québécoise." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016BOR30019/document.
Full textMythology brings human being to face the temporality of existence. Literature allows to grasp this temporality in making it dense through art. The recurrent motif of the Labyrinth and the Minotaur’s figure which is its indefectible tie reveal the inextricable bounds between writing, myth and reading. Quebecer author Jean Barbe’s novel 2004: Comment devenir un Monstre actualised the Minotaur’s figure and this Ariane’s thread was maintained until his last novel : Le Travail de l’huître, expanding its two sides : monstruosity and labyrinth. This literary remembrance of the mythemes Minotaur and Labyrinth becomes evident in other contemporaneous quebecer works especially since the sixties. It both reveals the formal plasticity of the myth, for it appears in novels from various literary styles, and show some literary constants which could specifically be linked to the quebecer corpus. Hubert Aquin and Gilbert La Rocque develop writings characterized by labyrinthine movements and themes shining a light on this topic. Other writers with different ways of writing allow to try and display the weight and adaptability of the myth both in the significans and the signification. R. Ducharme, G. Bessette, R. Lalonde, M. Tremblay, J. Renaud, Y. Thériault, complete the study in this manner. Feminine authors bring another point of vue : Aude, M.C. Blais, A. Hébert, S. Jacob, G. Roy, with the voices of youth : A. Dandurand, J. Hétu, M.H. Poitras. G. Soucy also succeed to them along with J.F Beauchemin, Biz, Louis Hamelin et S. Trudel who stage this myth in a singular and significant way. Can the Minotaur figure, through concrete representation of its own ambivalence, catch the specificities of a contemporary quebecer literature, branded by a historical split? The Labyrinth, indefectibly tied to the Minotaur, in turn vanishes or brings forth the nameless monster, the unutterable thus joining the invisible

Full textThe bringing into play of the opposites is an essential aspect of flaubert's works and his poetics. It is through the interaction of the opposites that his writing express best its double tendency to go towards the whole and the void. The present study tries to show how the literary exploitation of the opposites contributes, on the one hand, to the construction of the work, to the richness and the profundity of the text and, on the other hand, to the creation of a double register on which writing is put down both as affirmation and negation. The first party of the study is given to the examination of the general structure based on the dynamic tension between the opposites. The second party approches the construction of the work on the level of its own components which are generally created by association of the opposites. Finally in the last party, it is a question of the other fundamental process of flaubert's writting, of a destructive work founded on the destructive force of the opposites. The original intimacy of these tendencies comes in evidence through the conclusions of flaucher's works: they express the profound aspiration of his writing for a return to the original indistinction

Full textLewis Carroll’s late works, and his novel Sylvie and Bruno (1889) and Sylvie and Bruno Concluded (1893) in particular have been little studied. Yet Carroll thought of them as his spiritual legacy. The recent publication of many primary sources allows us today to throw a new light on his religious beliefs and on the circumstances of the writing of his works. The genetic study of the modalities of the Carrollian creation and the reconstruction of the genesis of the Sylvie and Bruno books show the primacy of the tabular and the dialogical in his creative process. The study of his library and of his reading testify to his deep intellectual involvement in the theological, scientific and university upheavals of the second half of the nineteenth century, and to the way these preoccupations have informed the writing of the Sylvie and Bruno books, whose organisation and contents are shaped by the discoveries of the Higher Criticism, the necessary reappraisal of the status of man in Nature by the evolution theory and the quarrels between the High Church and the Broad Church movements. Far from being a conservative, Carroll had a deep respect for the ideas of Benjamin Jowett and his work betrays the deep religious doubts that tormented him. It is logic and geometry which eventually allow him, in Sylvie and Bruno, to find the allegorical expression of his hope in a divine transcendence

Full textForms at the time Albert Cohen showed that there is an interaction between chronological time and history novels written between the lines of all works. Different forms and modes of expression of time in Cohen are the foundation of a plural writing in contradiction with the times. Cohen's work transcends all divisions of temporality poetic, romantic, lyrical, dramatic, autobiographical, profane and sacred dimension to achieve a universal construction based on the time difference. The History is precisely to allow the decryption part time by man through an intimate experience with the various manifestations common in novels cohéniens are waiting, loneliness, boredom and melancholy. The intimate moment is not only unlimited but it remains open in several horizons thereby also the coexistence of multiple spatio-temporal sequences. With history, time admits two parallel realities : first, land, from which he begins to evaluate the chronological time and linear second, involving the mythical first giving it a foothold in the time of old regenerates the writer with the advent of a new Adam
Beaume, Diana. "Alfred Jarry et la pensée des contraires." Le Mans, 2010. http://cyberdoc.univ-lemans.fr/theses/2010/2010LEMA3002.pdf.
Full textAlfred Jarry is the creator of a fascinating and disconcerting work. By many aspects, his poetics confirms the aesthetic principles of symbolism, but some other aspects remain enigmatic if the interpretive grid of symbolism is not complemented by distinct perspectives. The danger of a chaotic approach is not insurmountable, because all the ideas of this singular author are leaded by a directing notion that ordons and gives them coherence : that is the identity of opposites. Our essay is devoted to the study of its operation in the poetics of Jarry. The thrust of our exploration is the symbolist avatar of a philosophical notion that has been very popular in the erudite circles during the Renaissance, when it was mainly traveling in his Latin variant, the coincidentia oppositorum. Jarry, who penetrates deep into the complexity of the idea’s Renaissance context, appropriates, assimilates and. . . Diverts it, so that he can use it as a aesthetic engine for its literature. In the beginning, our study examines the context of the original concept, and then marks out how the coincidentia oppositorum informs the poetics of Jarry. This way, some of the most poignant "inconsistencies" of the fantasy world issued from his pen can be read as a result of the unusual, but coherent, mix of two worldviews separated by several centuries of cultural variations
Mamengui, Mouity Prisca. "La Dialectique ombre et lumière dans la poésie de Baudelaire et de Senghor." Thesis, Paris Est, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PEST0025.
Full textOur study answers to the title "The Dialectic shadow and light in Baudelaire and Senghor poetry". It strives to describe semantics of these two metaphors of the human condition in the work of our authors, under the methodological authority from Spitzer stylistics and from Richardřs themathic. Ac-tually, more than a simple ornament, a shadow and a light translate at best as possible their thought and describe the structure of the work. So, they are a generative matrix of aesthetics, a philosophy, and a sometimes dissonant religion. Conveniently, the work tries to highlight Baudelaire contribution in the Senghor poetry. It establishes that, in opposition to what some critics wrote, and in what Senghor let understand, his poetry is not influenced by that of the French poet. This last one acts rather as a revelation, by making him become aware of the beauty of Africa and black woman, their real meeting point

Full textThe Paris Stock Exchange was intriguing to 19th century writers. But as it stood for "the democratization of capital", it soon became a major source of controversy. After a period of heated debate (1854-1858) in which the press, comedies of manners and pamphlets played great role, the major theses then developed found their way into a novel of manners (1857-1890) that was widely opposed to the market place. The Stock Exchange was then viewed as the principal cause of the breaking p of ancient Régime society, this rhetoric being closely related to the rise of antiqemitism. While Zola's l'Argent (1890-1891) enhances a counter-notion of progress that evokes the American gospel of wealth as exemplified by Frank Norris and Theodore Dreiser, it also brings the political approach of economics to completion by showing that both democracy and the market place are ruled by abstractions
Bongo, Nadia. "L'altérité : dans les oeuvres d'Agota Kristof et de Milan Kundera." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012AIXM3134.
Full textThe subject of my thesis is the otherness in the work of Agota Kristof and Milan Kundera. Their opposite styles are link by their defiance towards lyricism and mimesis. Moreover, they have a similar biography for they underwent the war, the soviet totalitarianism and exile. In this comparative study I interrogate the notion and its role in the shaping of the authors' writing. My inquiry focuses on four main subjects divided into fourth parts: the writing, the discourse, the body and creation. My method is interdisciplinary for I use the work of critics such as levinas, Lacan or Bakhtine. In the first part, I define and present the implications of the otherness and related notions regarding the construction of the novel. The writing relies on fragmentation by mixing different points of view, levels of narration and narratives (dream sequences, autobiography, anecdotes). Various elements are constructed and deconstructed expressing the split dynamic. The second part deals with the discourse regarding otherness. Seemingly opposite speeches (internal/external, direct/indirect) express that of the self. Paradoxically, the dialogue leads to the loss of otherness. Polyphony intertwines several voices: of the self, of the other, of society and in Kristof's case, of the officials. Does Otherness rely on their equilibrium? Yet, otherness begs the question regarding the link between the body and the discourse. The third part defines a corporal writing. Different discourses invite various understandings and experiences of the body for he can also appear to be the other
Arranhado, Maria Rosa. "La dimension mythique dans l'œuvre poétique de Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen." Thesis, Paris 4, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA040042.
Full textThe poetic work of Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen, implied in the transformations of the political life and social of Portugal is bounded to the value of her ethical choices, while at the same time it reaches at tops of pure poetry thus apparently inaccessible to the analysis. Our effort thus relates to the connection of these aspects which make the “mythicity” of work and we chose, for direction of mythical: word which is repeated, and is made different in the act of repetition. Therefore, our field was poetic uttering act underlining the singularity of each poem, inserted in the continuity of the discourse. Thus, we could replace in the whole of the work the poems exemplifying of the concepts opposed seemingly. The experiment of the divine immanent with the landscapes, the literary and pragmatic use of mythology is notopposed to a critical reflection on the myths of our time. The plenitude of a language which says“the name of the things” coexists with the great diversity of the poetic forms explored by the poetess. The pattern repetition/difference is also that of the dialogism which makes the poetesses part in the mythicity of its predecessors. The experiment of the oceanic feeling,initiatory immersion of the individual in a Whole, is for us the myth – within the meaning of sacred narration of an origin – vocation of our author. The poetess also presents, in its diversity her assumption to “entirety of being” starting from a painful duality, the fact of dwelling a divided Time. The “substance of time”, lived at the time of the Revolution of April is the acme of its work, a discourse which becomes mythical insofar as it “makes occur the people”
Denizeau, Vincent. "Le paradoxe chez Jenaro Talens : une poétique du désarroi." Thesis, Paris 4, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA040127/document.
Full textThis work consists in the study of paradoxical clauses in the first part of Jenaro Talens’s poetic works (from 1964 to 1991). Starting from the two notions of paradox and poetry, we have organized our research around the syntagmatic and paradigmatic structures of the enunciation of paradoxes and the specificity of this poetic discourse, which we called poetic axis. So, after defining 2 large categories of paradoxes (logical and etymological), we have analysed the structure and the constructions of paradoxical propositions, in order to reach their role and function of the work under study : the feeling of paradox, as a synonym of disarray, which is the fuel of writing, shows the limit of the dual structure of the real, to lead to a non dual organisation of the world
Miot, Thierry. "L'École du sens chez Lewis Carroll." Tours, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005TOUR2014.
Full textWhen Alice herself uses or hears the word “nonsense,” it means something like “meaninglessness” (“sottises” in Henri Parisot's French translation), an expression often uttered in a reproachful tone and thus with negative connotations. However, “nonsense” need not be understood this way, for Lewis Carroll's original rhetorical technique of “nonsense” emerges from “non-sense” – a problematic feature inscribed within language and within the logic of meaning, itself. Lewis Carroll's “nonsense” speaks, then, of “non-sense. ” However, this is not to reduce the notion to mere obstacles to effective verbal communication, to the absence of meaning: a meaning that is paradoxical is in no way deprived of meaning, nor is such a meaning necessarily blemished with negative connotations (as the prefix “non” might lead one to believe), for nonsense can be understood as the creation of several meanings. Indeed, Lewis Carroll excels in showing how non-sense is inherent in the very logic of meaning, in its very “depth,” and perhaps more precisely in its deceptive “surfaces. ” Alice, in a dream-like state, yet still alert, is initiated into the paradoxes of the “logic of meaning”: she is urged to take stock of and cross surfaces (the surface of the card table, the mirror, the chessboard,. . . ) “in all directions,” diving into the core of the system that involves her heart and soul in a game of wit. She is challenged to keep her wits, wherever the logic of meaning might lead her. The “school of meaning,” taught by the master of nonsense, Lewis Carroll (in real life a professor of logic), frames the problem of meaning in terms of surface(s) and opts for the reductio ad absurdum principle in order to prove it: meaning seems to be more accessible through the game of “non-sense” – the play within meaning

Full textThe problem of relation has often been perceived by readers of Eliot as a lack of logical or grammatical relations, which makes it difficult to understand his poems. This perceived deficiency causes the reader to look for relations in the very structure of the poem, in the texts the poem alludes to, or in the mythical structures it relies upon. The reader becomes aware of the singularity of Eliot’s sometimes misleading intertextual practice. The poetry of T.S. Eliot plays with and distorts syntactic, logical and temporal relations. His poetics of indeterminacy precludes any attempt to establish logical relations within the poems. Yet the very ambiguity of Eliot’s syntax and the paradoxical nature of his dialectical poetics make of reading itself an unlimited and unrestrained process. The poet constantly addresses the problem of relation. The problem itself is inseparable from the poetic idiom which gives it voice. It is explored along the lines of a tension between conflicting relational dynamics, creating a new logic which relies on sensibility as well as on thought and rationality. Relations deconstruct the poem; they are pregnant while remaining “hints half guessed”. Through his poetry, T.S. Eliot never stopped questioning writing itself. The act of writing results from a decision; it is an articulation offering the possibility of continuity while marking a rupture at the same time. By giving birth to the poem, the poet links it to its own exteriority. But such linkage also reiterates the division inherent to language itself. The problem of this ambiguous relation to writing is expressed through the relations established, within the poems, between discordant voices, between the subject and its masks, and through a constant oscillation between conflicting discursive and metaphysical stances. The construction of the poem thus relies on the very possibility of its deconstruction. Eliot offers poems in deconstruction in which the subject itself can only emerge through an act of self-dispossession. Eliot does not merely reflect upon writing through his poetry. Writing itself becomes the means of his own definition as a poet. Writing comes first. It is the condition of Eliot’s poetic exploration of relation
Bui, Thi Thu Thuy. "La crise de l’exil chez Linda Lê : l’itinéraire du deuil dans la trilogie consacrée à la mort du père." Thesis, Lyon 2, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012LYO20024.
Full textExile and mourning, in dialectical relation, are of paramount importance in Linda Lê’s books which are populated by misanthropic characters. The trilogy is nourished by the traumatic loss of the father, the country and the language. The writer is deeply affected by the issue of the language. In fact, she deliberately abandoned her native tongue for that of her adopted country thus generating a feeling of betrayal. From her “exile of language”, Linda Lê constructs a “language of exile”: one of obscurity, of confusion, of crisis, aggravated by the death of her abandoned father. Writing is necessary for her in order to go through mourning and is a pharmakon against madness. Heterogeneous in their form, each book of the trilogy corresponds to one stage of grief. Homogeneous in their substance, they represent the different aspects of the father’s quest. Steeped in the personal experience of the author, the trilogy is nevertheless a work of fiction with a part of extravagance and onirism. The construction of the story also reflects the generic indecision, marked by the coherence between memory and imagination, conscious and unconscious. In addition, the trilogy is a testimony to a cultural duality with the Vietnamese past on the one hand and the European present on the other. Finally, the sentimental duality between love and anger is a mark of the “lê-esque” ideology: paradoxical in appearance but logical and philosophical in reality: life is born from death and death is hidden within life
Ronet, Pauline. "La poésie historique sous le regard de l’histoire : Hannibal chez Silius Italicus et Tite-Live." Paris 4, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008PA040020.
Full textOur aim was to show deep relations between antic writers, above generic frontiers. In order to highlight them, we have observed how a same figure had been treated (Hannibal), and this by two different litterary genres (historiography and epic poetry). It allowed us to state transgeneric features, with two main parts : thematic (warrior world or not) and grammatical (narration, speech) stylistically developed. So, Livy becomes a poetry with his Hanniba's figure with his topoi of stranger. Our results point out, not particulars and exclusive ways, but generic interdependance, their complementarity and their mutual enrichment. Writers, such as expert, chase the raw material to induce admiration and support
Rouillé, Louis. "Disagreeing about fiction." Thesis, Paris Sciences et Lettres (ComUE), 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019PSLEE064.
Full textIn this dissertation, I contribute to contemporary debates in analytic philosophy about truth, interpretation and reference in fiction. I defend a version of "functionalism" (originating in Kendall Walton's work) which says that the key concept for analyzing fictions is pretence or make-believe. In the first part, I argue against the modal account of truth in fiction and then introduce "pretence semantics". The modal account says that fictional statements are similar to counterfactual statements, which can be given truth-conditions using possible-world semantics. But the fictional well exceeds the possible, and also the impossible (of hypothetical impossible-world semantics). Moreover, the modal account is incompatible with a causal theories of semantic information which can be argued for independently. As for pretence semantics: it is a formal apparatus delivering fictionality-conditions (instead of truth-conditions) which derive from real features of the props used in games of make-believe and some "principles of generation". In the second part, I fine-tune pretence semantics on a case study. It is a literary debate about what is true in Kafka's story "the Metamorphosis". Nabokov once argued against critics who say that Gregor Samsa has turned into a monstrous cockroach. Cockroaches do not get stuck on their backs; Gregor is stuck on his back in the opening scene of the story. So, Nabokov argues, he cannot be a cockroach; he must be a big beetle. In order to analyze this "great beetle debate", I use the notion of "faultless disagreement" which comes from epistemology. I thus investigate the indeterminacy of fictional events which, I argue, is neither linguistic nor ontological but pragmatic in nature. In the third part, I defend anti-realism about fictional names which says that fictional characters do not exist and that fictional names do not refer. Anti-realism is the same doctrine as functionalism applied to reference. Though intuitive, the view has to meet a powerful counterargument based on "metafictional uses" of names. For instance, one can say truly: "Emma Woodhouse is a fictional character". Given compositionality, it follows that the name "Emma Woodhouse" refers in such contexts. This argument leads to a form of realism: fictional names refer to some kind of "abstract artefact". I show that the best realist theories are inadequate. Then I provide an analysis of the linguistic data introducing a notion of perspective. It enables me to circumscribe the problematic metafictional statements for the anti-realist. Ironically, anti-realists mainly struggle with negative existentials, although these put into words the central tenet of anti-realism, namely that fictional characters do not exist. Pretence semantics (which yields fictionality-conditions) is helpless for giving truth-conditions to them. To account for them, I use a version of positive free logic which combines with pretence semantics. Anti-realism is thus both intuitive and tenable
Longhi, Julien. "Les objets discursifs : doxa et évolution des topoï en corpus." Clermont-Ferrand 2, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007CLF20014.
Full textNous définissons le concept d'objet discursif, analysé dans trois corpus (médiatique, littéraire et politique). Le corpus est défini comme un ensemble de propositions énoncées, à la fois observatoire pour l'analyse et entité dynamique. Selon la linguistique du sens commun (Sarfati), l'inscription de la doxa dans la langue est postulée relativement à l'organisation d'un système du sens commun lui-même régi par un dispositif de topoï. La relation entre le système du sens commun et l'apparition de formes linguistiques permet d'étayer l'hypothèse d'un dispositif antétieur à la prise de parole caractérisable également par le choix opéré lors de la mise en expression. La phénoménologie permet de s'intéresser aux processus de sémiotisation : au niveau linguistique, la "Théorie des sémanitques (Cadiot et Visetti), envisage la saisie d'une forme sémantique en motifs, profils, et thèmes. Nous substituons le concept de topos à celui de thème : les topoï constituent l'aboutissement des dynamiques sémantiques, et sont par conséquent linguistiquement motivés et profilés en discours. La performativité est intégrée à la dynamique (elle est décrite comme catalyseur dans la constitution d'une forme sémantique). Les phases de saisie du sens sont redistribuées selon la tripartition canon-vulgate-doxa : nous relevons les apports de la démarche discursive grâce à l'anticipation lexicale. Les motifs insérés permettent de saisir une généricité du sens propre à un corpus donné, ou à une Formation Discursive. Sur la voie des profilages, ils constituent une zone de stabilisation pré-syntaxique, qui contraint la mise en syntagme. Les profilages doxiques permettant ensuite la construction de topoï par thématisation
We define this research the concept of discursive object, analyzrd in three corpora (media, literature, and politics). Corpus is defined as a collection of "uttered propositions", considered both as an observatory for analysis, and as a dynamic entity. According to the linguistics of common sense (Sarfati), the inscription of doxa in language is postulated in connection with the organization of a system of common sense, wich is governed by a topoï-based device. The analysis of linguistic forms (ellipses, grammatical categories) makes the link between this system and the choices operated during enunciation. Phenomenology underlines the processes of semiotisation : at the linguistic level, the Theory of semantic forms (Cadiot and Visetti) studies the construction of semantic forms along three dimensions of meaning, named motives, profiles, and themes. We substitute themes for the concept of topos : topoï are linguistically motivated, and profiled in discourse. Performativity is integrated into the dynamic movement itself, and contributes to the argumentative work of the units (it is described as a catalyst in the constitution of a semantic form). We show that these phases can be evaluated according to the tripartition "canon-vulgate-doxa" : we raise the contributions of the discursive levels into the constitution of a semantic form, thanks to the phenomenon of lexical anticipation. What we call "intserted motives" reveals the genericity of specific corpora, or of Discursive Formations. In the course of "profiling", they constitute a pre-syntactic zone of stabilization. The "doxic profiles" finally permit the construction of topoï by thematisation

Full textThis memoir stems from the central paradox which defines the writings of Pierre Perrault : the fact that apart from his cinematographic work, he writes literary texts all the while refuting the status of writer as well as the category of literature. Analysis of the poetic discourse in the poems of Gélivures and the essays from De la parole aux actes demonstrates that Perrault is able, by grace of the imaginary of speech, to write while symbolically withdrawing from literature, which he whole heartedly criticises. This memoir calls on the idea that language plays a significant role on the crossroad of history and society. The first chapter deals with the significance of what is voiced by Perrault and what this implies. The subjects treated in particular are the semantic aspects which encompass the omnipresent motive in his work including the metaphoric ties between one’s voice, one’s memory and one’s identity. The second chapter reflects upon more discreet manifestations of one’s voice, namely, the contributions Perrault makes through his work to what is voiced. Addressed are intertextuality, page layout, and quotation. Perrault’s desire to take his leave to speak is studied in the final chapter. His writing is envisioned as a struggle to defend a voice which is linked directly to his quest for identity that inspires a strongly polemic style and the search for an enunciation which leads to action.

Full textThis series of essays analyses the concept of money in the law, seeking to isolate its unique and highly abstract nature. Traditionallaw teaching characterizes money both as a fact and as a right premised as it is on the idea that common nouns like 'money' must have substantive meaning; it is thereby unable to accept that money, by virtue of its unique place amongst the categories of private law, is the mechanism supposing the indeterminate future by embedding the present into it. The difficulty with money is that, as a category, it is not included amongst the usual categories ofprivate law. Its abstract character prevents it from being included amongst objects that have extension. Rather money is defined by negation with respect to the usuallegal categories. It is thereby uniquely recognizable. In the subject-object relationship, paid money is obviously not a subject. In its strict meaning, money refers today to paper-money. It is true that the latter does exist physically because it is tangible. But paradoxicalIy, as an object, money is neither a sum owed, nor an obligation in kind, nor a good, nor representing a debt, nor a measurement, nor consumable, nor fungible in the relevant sense ofthose terms. How does one capture the substance of a notion that defies the usual categories of legal discourse? That is the fundamental difficulty of the thesis. The entirely unique way of defining money bears repeating: Cash money is not identical to a sum owed but extinguishes one as it is being paid; conversely, a sum owed is not identical with money received, since when money is paid without obligation, the sum can be recovered as undue (the undue becomes due). The definition ofmoney proceeds by 'corecurrence': it defines something indeterminate, in that one definition refers to the other and vice versa. Its nature stems from its function in the structure of prestations. But the legal scholarship treats it principally as a sum owed, without further distinguishing this type of debt from other prestations. Now, as the performance of an obligation, a sum ofmoney not only as much pays off any amount, due at one time or another, but, because those are paired to obligations in kind as the price owed in consideration ofparticular performances to be accomplished; the cashing of sums of money still conducts the movement of goods among persons. Whence a paradox: A sum of money is destined to circulate precise1y to extinguish sums (due). Legal scholarship generally teaches the thesis of unity of performance of obligations (payment in its broad civillaw meaning): AlI acts accomplished in the performance of obligations in kind and all payments of sums of money are put in the same bag. Now, they are first owed, then received. These operations are said to form a single set. This bag is time itself. 1t is an interpretation of the universe of prestations, more precise1y an interpretation of the notion of universe where the homogeneous actuality of a set excludes to give place to the possibility of future values by contrast to past values. To close the notion of a universe to that of an actual vi set, the trick is to close the duality 'set/member' by replacing the member by the set: one of the objects included in the set must be at once an existing element of the set and be the collection of aIl its elements, constituting thereby the substantive junction underlying this duality. This foundational object is usually called the zero of the set. In the set of performances of obligations (prestations) with which we are dealing here, there must similarly be an element in the nature of both a promise and a fact. That element is money. So money has a dual nature, both concept and referent of the concept. The sum owed is performed in money and, conversely, money is the sum transferred as payment: substituting one definition in the other, the performance of the sum owed is the sum transferred, a formula leading to infinite regression. Who then is the debtor of this sum transferred for as long as money did and will circulate? The conceptual difficulty with money is to understand this metamorphosis, where the performance of a fact in satisfaction of an obligation reveals itselfto be a promise. Why then bother to distinguish a promise from the performance of it? Money cumulates the categorical nature of a physical thing being delivered - in olden days gold, today paper-money - and the nature of a sum owed; this way of thinking would tend to reify debts, to confer them physical existence. Yet to owe money is fundamentally the duration of the term of a relationship between two persons. And to pay money is to put an end to this term. So paradoxically, to express it in a categorical duality, money has duration and at the same time it has none. Such a union of the polar opposites of a duality is not unprecedented. To help the reader realise this, l document how the theme of migration ofpecuniary value ofthings by means ofmoney being given in payment of amounts owed is reminiscent of metempsychosis (migration of the soul) used to conceptualise the foundation of the medieval Crown, the gift ofGod that consecrated the continuity of successive reigns of an hereditary line of regents. At that time, the historical continuity of the people was conceptualised by the King's two bodies: both that of an individual and that of the set of individuals subject to his reign. Unique amongst aIl, one foundational individual was considered to constitute a set of one. This platonic attitude was believed necessary in public law to resolve the conceptual difficulty of the historical continuity of a community despite the temporal nature of its individuals; it was put to similar use in private law with respect to money. The thesis of unity of performance of obligations - where, like in economics, the capacity to exchange goods is considered an ordinary good itself - appears to rely on the same conception of a necessary dual nature. In the universe of prestations, according to traditionallegal scholarship, an infinite set of successive values taking shape over an indefinite period of time is viewed as founded on a transcendental object which cumulates the opposite faces ofa duality: both sum (of money) and thing, both right and act accomplished in the performance of an obligation, both fact and future value. This traditional paradigm disregard the duality of prestations: pecuniary and non-pecuniary. It does so by giving a substantive value to the non vi-a existence of a sumo The explanation proposed here is one of structure. The universe of prestations is rather a dichotomy of two distinct dualities: 10 a categorieal duality, that of the performance of specifie prestations - where to have done something and not to have done it are characterised action and abstention, and 20 a modal (circular) duality: to owe an amount in currency or (exclusively) not to owe it, to have paid it or not. The obligation to deliver a particular performance to someone is paired to the sum of money owed by him in consideration of it; we altemate from nonpecuniary obligation to promises to pay an amount of money without one being able to have his cake and eat it too at any time. But still, one amount owed follow another thru money, money always being the tuming over of the sum owed. We are not obliged to state that money exists, or that it does not; it suffiees to say that it extinguishes the sum owed. Not only is the sum owed extinguished upon money being tumed (paid) in, but by virtue of nominalism it still can extinguish anew a further sum of same amount; it is sufficient that a creditor accept to be owed a sum ofmoney rather than to revert to the barter ofphysical things. This new reading of the payment of obligations draw apart two types of reasoning. The categorieal proof of a past specifie performance is different from the modality where the legal consequence of the extinction of a sum due is tumed over into the a priori possibility to still reiterate that same consequence against a sum that now may not yet be determined. The possibility of an historieal continuity does not have the finite nature of a fact. Money as an object transcends the concept of an ordinary object because it is circular: 'money' is "the end of a sum (owed) and (is still) money". In the hereditary line of sums, created to be extinguished or extinguished to be created, money is neither the predecessor nor a particular successor; it is the function of continuously opening up the possibility of further successors. Money is an abstraction and its unique character is confirmed in Canada since 1967. Once the convertibility of paper-money is dropped, money is no longer a promissory note: no longer does the central bank undertakes to exchange a bank note for gold or Dominion bonds. Paper-money is now trivially replaced only by paper-money. Finally, the abstract character ofmoney gives the central bank an most unusual status as a legal person. If the Crown is creditor of sorne persons and debtor to others, then by contrast the central bank - who is not a bank - is neither creditor, nor debtor ofpaper-money. The problem of fitting money within the traditional categories of the law does have an unexpected ending. Money presents itself as the complement of the concepts oflegal discourse. The cashing in of a sum triggers the end of its term, but still it calls one anew, eventually. So money is the bath of renewal of sums. In being characterised as neither... nor... it hops between the two terms by altematively negating them.

Full textThis work explores duality as it is portrayed in two books by André Gide, Les Caves du Vatican (translated as Lafcadio’s Adventures and The Vatican Cellars) and Les Faux-Monnayeurs (The Counterfeiters). The concept of the double is a major literary theme which sheds light on the various tensions lashing against each other within individuals. Often depicted in physical form in 19th century literature following the use of the Doppelgänger figure, the double found in Gide’s writings is more complex: subtler, it remains psychological but is not visible. There are two major ways in which duality appears in Gide’s books: through the characters, and through the narrative. Studying the characters’ contradictions and inconsistencies, the representation of duality in various characters, their ability to become another character’s double, and their double discourses enables us to establish the extent to which the characters structure duality. An analysis of the narrators’ identities, of their interventions, and of the rhetorical figures they use also shows that the more they reveal themselves, the more complex they become.

Full textThis memoir focuses on two poetry collections from Quebec: Marie Uguay’s “Autoportraits” and Geneviève Desrosiers’ “Nombreux seront nos ennemis”. These can be characterised as “intimist” as they bring to the forefront the poetical narrator’s close observations of his daily life. My two-part project includes a research on Uguay’s and Desrosiers’ view of “intimism” as well as a poetry collection inspired by their work. My research concentrates on the threshold’s logic and on the narrator’s troubled relationship with the various representations of alterity. In the two studied poetry collections, the “I” indeed occupies a reclusive position from which it does not have to face alterity. The poems that form the second part of this project testify to the resourcefulness in which the narrator spreads out in order to avoid his humdrum existence. The monotony of daily life is seen as a trap or a form of imprisonment. Consequently, only a thin frontier separates dreams from reality in these poems. The contrast between the “I”’s actual positions and his fancied destinations plays a major role in the text’s aesthetic. Several wishes are laid upon the table, amongst them a new departure. The poems therefore express the narrator’s longing but attempt to avoid the dangers of a classic “intimism” which are an exaggerated sensitivity or narcissism.
