Abstract:

Although the quest for authenticity has been particularly foregrounded in self-narratives from the nineteen-sixties onwards, its long tradition goes back to St Augustine. This thesis endeavours to trace a genealogy of texts that foreground the problematics of locating and narrating a self: from the confessional to the legacies of the literature of the double, through to the modern and postmodern novel. Ever since Augustine’s Confessions, the preoccupation with the transformation and shaping of subjective experience into narrative forms has wrestled with the problem of whether the activity is o

Abstract:

Magister Artium - MA<br>We Dare Not Say is an anthology of seven interlinked short stories with the general theme of intergenerational trauma among coloured families in Cape Town. The stories are arranged in a montage of internally, variably and externally focalised narratives that span over a century, from 1900 through to 2015, and are fictionalised accounts of real events, categorising them as biographical fiction. Some of the specific topics covered in the stories include incest, molestation, substance abuse, mental illness and humour as a coping mechanism. The body of work is conceived in

Cette thèse a pour objectif de lire à travers les médias hôtes que sont la littérature, la bande dessinée et le cinéma, la présence d’éléments picturaux au sein de fictions biographiques. Il s’agit d’une étude comparative qui considère l’art comme lieu de reconstruction mais aussi de conservation de l’histoire en général et de l’histoire artistique en particulier. De manière générale, les interactions entre le pictural et les autres arts prennent deux orientations. La première est la reconstitution du champ pictural et de son fonctionnement.

L’écriture biographique se présente comme l’une des pratiques majeures de la littérature française contemporaine.

L’une des multiples formes que revêt l’écriture contemporaine de vie, est la « fiction biographique » qui relie les auteurs dans leur désir de restituer la vie de l’Autre antérieur au sein des textes signalés par leur réticence à l’égard des codes de la biographie standard.

Thesis (M.

These writers depict crime from the African and European perspectives. Chapter One deals with a brief introduction, and the aim and objectives of the study.

The subject of this thesis is Leonora written by Elena Poniatowska. The aim of the study is to analyze the literary technique and strategy used in constructing this book which depicts the life of a famous painter, Leonora Carrington. The analysis concentrates on two aspects: the extent of its feminist character and whether it can be classified as a fictional biography or a biographic fiction. In order to arrive at a conclusion on these issues a brief summary of literary and feminist theory is presented as well as a short description of relevant aspects of the surrealist movement.

Les figures de poètes ou d’écrivains sont les supports d’une poétologie auctoriale héritière du romantisme et de la modernité, incarnée en particulier par la figure paradoxale de Kaspar Hauser.

Abstract:

Olive Schreiner's fiction is best understood in the context of her colonial situation : she experienced central Victorian spiritual dilemmas and social constrictions, but refracted through a rural colonial culture. A complex position of power and powerlessness, superiority and inferiority, individual assertiveness and self- abnegation, is the crux of her fictional world. Her formative years were spent within a culturally deprived rural environment in a dependent position as servant/governess, yet her reading gave her access to leading Victorian intellectuals who were trying to create a new syn

Henri-Alexandre Junod was a missionary and a prolific student and writer, whose interests also included the natural sciences and anthropology.

This study approaches Junod’s life and work from a biographical perspective, attempting to identify aspects of his work, in particular his fiction, that have not been studied and therefore to shed new light on him.
