Full textJules Barbey d’Aurevilly left a polymorphous work. In that respect, the years 1851-1865 were exemplary. Every week he wrote an article for Le Pays and sent a letter to his friend Trebutien. No other period saw so many Aurevillien tales published : the first short story of Les Diaboliques, Le Dessous de cartes d’une partie de whist, and novels : Une vieille maîtresse, L’Ensorcelée, Le Chevalier des Touches et Un prêtre marié. Though he had to deal with those pieces of writing at the same time, Barbey seemed to dissociate them. Critical writing, submitted to editorial conditions of newspapers resulted from emergency, censorship and “Necessity”. On the other hand, the letters gave him a chance to “roar”: they opened parentheses amongst the pressing “din” of the newspapers and the “furnace” of novel writing. The latter – through the power of Imagination – appeared nonetheless as the privileged place for authentic personal expression. However, can we grant a function to a letter, an article or a novel in such a categorical manner? Of course, letters offered Barbey space for spontaneity into which he entered hurriedly. They also gave food for thought on writing itself, and were used as a pattern for novel and critical writing. In the same way, critical writing improved fiction and refined esthetic choices. This polymorphism did not limit genres to a particular function or aesthetic choice but designed a global coherence in which each piece of writing influenced another to try and reach ‘the eloquence of the heart’. Indeed that was the ideal writing Barbey d’Aurevilly pursued from 1851 to 1865 and which created the aesthetic qualities of his prose
Doig, Katherine. "Correspondances avec l'absence : la fiction épistolaire monologique aux XXe et XXIe siècles." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017USPCA127.
Full textLong fictions composed of one uninterrupted letter – monologic epistolary fictions – are underrepresented in critical discourse, and frequently shunted more or less overtly beyond its margins. Their existence is brought to light here by one play and fourteen novels in French, English, Italian and German, ranging from 1902 (Gide) to 2011 (Norman) via a cast of authors including Yourcenar, Coetzee, Amis and Celestini.This study aims firstly to fill the critical lacuna, establishing the dimensions of this new sub- genre. It measures the breadth of the formal definitions of the single-letter epistolary novel, the length of its inscription in literary history, and the depth conferred upon it by critical discourse about real letters, the letter-novel genre and a certain epistolary quality to be found in all literature, which our novels set themselves up to reflect and refract.Our rather disparate corpus of texts reveals the interest of this technical framework, haunted as it is by recurrent themes which illuminate the characteristics of monological epistolary writing. Firstly, the theme of one's own death (Yourcenar, Coetzee, Bernstein, Robinson, Amis) shines a light on the physical structure of any text, rendered visible in the format of the letter; this conjunction suggests the idea of the text as corpse. A series of apocalyptic universes complicates this rather empirical portrait, which reads like the symbol of the Death of the Author; novels by Coetzee, Amis and Auster use complex portraits of fictional time to suggest the possibility of coincidence, overlap, meetings both epistolary and literary. These two chapters set up the terms of a final debate concerning literary communication, investigated via the symbol of the double (Gide, Coeztee, Bernstein, Celestini). After the narrative of the text itself and the implied drama of the letter's trajectory, a pragmatic dimension comes to light. This final analysis allows us to investigate the ethics of correspondence, and the letter as one key to understanding those of fiction itself

Full textThe first part shows what is known toda y about the Royals of Navarre and France in the sixteenth century. It lists thepublications of their writings as well as different researchers' points of view about them up to now. Finally it specifiesunder which criteria the studied corpus bas been established (choice of letters, unpublished works).The second part describes the cultural and material contexts of the royal correspondence. It demonstrates the genre ofletter writing during the Renaissance period, the education and culture of princes and princesses as weil as the materialconstraints which influenced the ability of writing their letters.The last two parts are devoted to the study of letters. The language used by the kings and queens depended on therelationship between them and their correspondents. This makes a distinction between letters to members of the publicand those intended for personal correspondence. Beyond this distinction, it is noticed thal the differences in styledepend also on the exercising (or not) of royal authority, as well as on the gender of the writer. The different genresused in writing are in no way "natural" but dictated by society in order to address specific requirements.From these works the following hypothesis can be made: the kings' and queens' practices of letter writing influencedthe theories of the period. Furtherrnore, this study confirms thal beyond the practice of a universal way of writing, themajority of kings and queens bad their own unique persona! style

Full textCette thèse s’inscrit dans la mouvance des travaux qui visent à renouveler l’histoire littéraire (Thérenty, Vaillant, Pinson, Cambron) en tenant compte des enjeux de l’histoire culturelle, dont celui des représentations (Corbin, Kalifa). Elle met en valeur un corpus de 300 lettres écrites par des Bas-Canadiennes liées au mouvement patriote entre 1830 et 1840 et a pour objectif de montrer que la pratique épistolaire des femmes de la première moitié du XIXe siècle n’évolue pas en circuit fermé, mais s’avère perméable à l’actualité et au discours médiatique. Tout en révélant les conditions matérielles, les codes et les relations sociales qui régulent la forme épistolaire, cette étude cherche à faire état des mutations que subissent les usages de la lettre féminine au contact des événements insurrectionnels. Privilégier une lecture culturelle de la décennie 1830-1840 à travers le prisme des correspondances féminines permet d’observer la période insurrectionnelle du point de vue des opportunités qu’elle offre aux femmes. Cette perspective incite à examiner les lettres qu’elles ont écrites, mais aussi à se pencher sur les autres pratiques de sociabilité, dont le salon, de même que sur les pratiques de lecture, principalement celle du journal, qui est accessible aussi bien aux femmes de la bourgeoisie qu’à celles issues de milieux plus modestes. L’étude croisée des lettres et de la presse rend compte des interférences et de la complémentarité entre la correspondance et la culture médiatique au cœur du XIXe siècle, et témoigne d’une politisation progressive des usages et des pratiques culturelles. En plein siècle romantique, l’enchevêtrement entre le politique et le personnel bouleverse les frontières entre le privé et le public et entraîne des tensions dans l’écriture épistolaire, notamment dans la représentation du sujet féminin, mais aussi entre une pratique plus ouverte à une sensibilité de nature romantique et un cadre normatif fondé sur l’idéal classique. C’est pourquoi cette thèse allie les méthodes de l’histoire littéraire et la notion d’autoreprésentation empruntée à l’analyse du discours (Maingueneau, Amossy) pour évaluer dans quelle mesure les femmes s’approprient les représentations culturelles en vigueur pour être entendues, tout en étant fidèles à elles-mêmes et aux possibles de l’époque.

Full textFollowing y. Galet's synchronic study of the verbo-adverbial correlations, it has now become necessary to consider, through the diachronic study, the gradual linguistic gap between the passe simple and some adverbial phrases expressing time. The present dissertation considers the period extending from the xvii century through the xix century and it is limited to the epistolary genre from etienne pasquier to victor hugo. It focuses on two major objectives: a) to show how the results of the counting obtained mainly through the frantext data can help date as accurately as possible the use of these adverbial phrases expressing time with the passe compose rather than with the passe simple. B) to attempt to discover and to elucidate factors that provoked this linguistic evolution. The distributional method adopted in this study helps to avoid the subjectivity with which contemporary readers view these ancient texts
Naman, Ghada. "La correspondance de Voltaire avec Étienne–Noël Damilaville." Thesis, Paris Est, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PEST0027.
Full textThis thesis talks about the correspondence of Voltaire with Étienne-Noël Damilaville which lasts eight years (1760 to 1768). The corpus consists of the letters we received, it has five hundred fifty-nine letters. Among them there are five hundred forty letters from Voltaire to Damilaville. This study is divided into three parts, it aims to explain the nature of relationships that link the two men and how the epistolary exchange was developed. The letters are full of requests, requests for books, information, discounts of letters or packages and services of all kinds. They letters reveal the great confidence that Voltaire to his correspondent. One easily sees loyalty Damilaville who does not hesitate to fulfill these requests. Several aspects of life in Ferney Voltaire are presented, as well as its relations with Paris by mediation of Damilaville who works in the office of the Twentieth. Its function using both postal services and to avoid the censorship imposed on the post and on the books that come in France in the eighteenth century. The correspondence is rich variation in subjects and areas covered, it reflects the life of Voltaire as a man and author, particularly as the author engaged in the fight against bigotry, says the "Infâme". It tries to show its role and that the group of "brothers" in this fight, without neglecting the importance of Damilaville as his intermediary with the "brothers" and with other relationships. We present the strategy in the fight business Calas, Sirven and La Barre; Voltaire's role as head of propaganda is clear, he is giving orders and recommendations, to seek contacts, make requests or letters. He spares no efforts to gain the victory he dedicated to the struggle of important works. This research examines some of them to understand the method used to support the notion of tolerance and overcome fanaticism. Finally, the epistolary style used is examined through the presentation of the common structure of the letter, that of his unit and applying the standard adopted in the conventional epistolary genre. We see that the letters belong to a genre that changes with flexible usage between a registered letter, an epistle, a letter and a letter ostensibly. The study addresses the image of Voltaire by himself in his letters, there are some letters that turn into letter portrait that draws the lines of his person and presents his biography, it becomes a place where he effusion book is to reveal the intimacy of the ego of the author. The image of his works and his plays has its place in literature. It examines how present and the image that Voltaire wants to give his correspondent

Full textThe Bible is everywhere in medieval texts, but the ways it was precisely involved in the writing of those texts are still very much to be investigated. This dissertation sheds light on its uses in letter-collections composed within the “Angevin empire” in the second half of the 12th century. A few “causes celebres” led clerics, the “masters of the Word”, to fight one another; the conflict between Thomas Becket and Henry II is the most famous of those. Referring to Scripture was a choice, and not a reflex; those who made that choice used their biblical references, and the exegesis that illuminated their meaning, to foster their social position and relationhips and to fight their political battles, sometimes in rather sophisticated ways. The texts that would soon become the utmost authorities for canon law, Gratian’s Decretum and popes’ decretals, had not yet acquired such status, making possible for Becket and his companion to use the Bible, in an unusual and striking way, as their main legal auctoritas
Descotes, Pierre. "Le De gratia noui Testamenti, synthèse de la doctrine augustinienne de la grâce." Thesis, Paris 4, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA040147.
Full textThe De gratia noui Testamenti (= epistula 140), which is both a treatise and a letter composed by the Bishop of Hippo Regius at the beginning of year 412, presents Augustine’s thoughts on the connections between divine grace and human freedom in a remarkably synthetic way, first because of the circumstances in which it was written, which place it at the junction of very different debates, and secondly because of its originality on a literary point of view, which links it to several genres. This thesis comprises three parts. First, we propose an introduction to the treatise, which presents its main aspects – among which, the historical problems it poses, the literary questions it raises and the insight it offers into Augustine’s way of thinking. Then we have established the edition (which corrects that of the CSEL, which dates from the beginning of the 20th century) and the translation from a study of its manuscript tradition. Finally, our commentary strives to enlighten the debatable passages of the epistle in order to highlight its main historical, literary and philosophical interests

Full textFrom Ausonius to Ennodius of Pavia, including Paulinus of Nola, Symmachus and Sidonius Apollinaris, many men of letters, in late Antiquity, wrote both letters and epigrams. Besides, Ennodius himself has organized his complete work alternating epigrams and letters, and highliting the close connection between those two genres. However, despite theirs numerous common features, the critics did not bother to draw a parrallel between them. Thus, we want to devote ourselves to this original point of view. First of all, we study the stylistic aspect of this generic connection, through two main common criteria. One the one hand, the breuitas and the humilitas, and in the other hand, the predominance of a certain form of mannerism. Then, considering the social and communicational aspects of those genres, we bring them together as medias adopting a common communicationnal system, and using the same places of creation. Finally, we include our reflexion in a broader one, about the phenomenon of genre-switching in Late Antiquity. This final movement consists in a studic of hybrid forms, in an ecdotic, stylistic point of view, but also in the study of latin-grec bilingualism

Full textReflection on the spiritual relationship is made possible through the correspondence of the Jesuit Jean-Joseph Surin (1600-1665) using the concept of "communication" based on the spiritual theology of the author. The status of the text and its functions can be described through the history of the circulation its manuscripts, the constitution of his collected letters and their publication. His spiritual direction and preaching shows the link between literature, society and spirituality based on a reflection on his "motives for writing". Surin claims that the relationship wich is established between the correspondent and the author is of their self-constitution as free subject, a relashionship in wich the third term (God) identifies the process of reception of the letter

Full textIn the XVIIIth century, women’s correspondences were representative of the emergence of a new readership whose judgment had progressively been acknowledged in the course of the previous century ― namely, that of the “amateurs of Letters”. We still know comparatively little about the role played by these people ; they cultivated their taste for Letters without aspiring to earn a living by writing or acting, in an era when the discipline of Letters, that had emerged as such in the XVIIth century, was undergoing significant changes. Writings by women had long been restricted to anonymous or confidential publication; women now elected epistolary intercourse as a locus for their cultural practice as amateurs, thus contributing essential knowledge on the subject.This study focuses on the letters by eight letter writers : Mmes de Graffigny, du Deffand, du Châtelet, d’Épinay, de Charrière, Roland, and Mlles de Malboissière et de Lespinasse. The first section is about the aspects of these ladies’ domestic and social conditions which facilitated their access to the literary culture that was indispensable to the birth of their taste for Letters. The next section concentrates on these women’s apprenticeship and their appropriation of this culture according to their reading and theatre-going experiences. Our research then shifts to the women letter writers’ role in the transmission and the assessment of texts, to the point that they became the prime agents in the mediatization of the literary life of their time.Their daily acquaintance with the texts that they submitted to their critical judgment turned out to nourish their writing practices. These practices are placed under scrutiny in the last section of our study ; they rely on borrowing, which favours banter with one’s interlocutors, as well as on numerous composing initiatives, which push back the boundaries of the letter as a genre. By challenging their writers’ tastes through the practice of writing, the correspondences thus prove to be a cornerstone of the women of Letters’ literary knowledge and sensibility, a place for expression and, in line with the letters of the marquise de Sévigné, the space par excellence for an amateur’s creativity
Carré, Juliette. "L’École des lettres. Correspondances amicales entre jeunes artistes : Alain-Fournier, Jacques Rivière, André Lhote (1904-1914)." Thesis, Paris 4, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA040042.
Full textAlain-Fournier and Jacques Rivière exchanged many letters from 1904 to 1914. Painter André Lhote joined them in 1907. This thesis postulates that their correspondences, because they were written out of friendship, played a part in their education as future artists.The context of the encounter between the three youngsters is determined by what Jean-François Sirinelli calls « sociability structures » : the first one is the Rhétorique Supérieure class in Lakanal, where Rivière and Fournier meet, the second one is Gabriel Frizeau’s salon in Bordeaux, where Rivière meets Lhote. Exploring literature and culture, reading and seeing a part of what their time had to offer, gives solid foundations to their friendship, and leads to the extension of their sociability network. This being laid out, one can define the features of the letter writers’ friendship. It obeys the criteria of perfect friendship as it was described by tradition : friends are equals and their relationship is based on trading and sharing. But the three young men are also friends because they have a common passion for arts. Their friendly pact thus influences their epistolary pact : a friendship letter, being defined by its variety, allows writers to criticize each other’s work, to give theoretical exposés and to practice creative writing. That is why these correspondences can be called a school for artists : there, the three young men can build their own identities which allow them to find their place into the artistic field. They also form vitalist aesthetic principles and their own writing styles. Letters thus appear as a laboratory where they can try to write novels, essays or art critic
Fleury, Pascale. "Un rhéteur latin à l'âge de la seconde sophistique : recherches sur l'utilisation des genres et motifs littéraires dans l'oeuvre de Fronton." Paris, EPHE, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002EPHE4019.
Full textThe Frontonian corpus is heterogeneous. In his works, we have identified three types of literary expressions traditionally associated with the epistolary genre (recommendation, health news, letters of wishes), the other, motives at the same time close to letter-writting and having an independent utilisation (fable, consolation), the last type having no connection with the epistolary form (paradoxical praise, éroticos, practical oratory, historiography). We have chosen to leave aside in our analysis the sub-genres of the letter and to lay down a binary structure : the first part of our work is devoted to ludic genres (paradoxical praise, éroticos, fable), the second to serious genre (practical oratory, historiography, consolation). This division seemed more fit to bring fertile conclusions. As a matter of fact, the elements of each group must go through the same type of analysis : Front, in the ludic genre, plays with tradition, with the limits of the genres to reveal his conception of life and rhetoric ; conversely, in the serious genre, the rules of the genre are in general obeyed. However, in the ludic and in the serious genre, Fronto favours an epidictic expression of reality
