Abstract:
This paper analyzes the intermedial discourse in Morrison’s novel Beloved. It brings to the fore the cinematic tropes with which Morrison’s “politics of affect”, to borrow from Massumi’s syntagm, is interwoven. Drawing on Müller’s concept of intermediality which shows the appropriations of art forms, this paper decodes Morrison’s intermedial poetics. To engage with the trauma of history and the “Archive Fever,” Morrison resorts to a visual medium, cinema, to weave a hybrid literary discourse that lies at the heart of the postcritical turn in cultural, literary and media studies.

Abstract: This article examines how Évelyne Trouillot’s 2003 novel Rosalie l’infâme rewrites the narratives of two historical figures, the prerevolutionary hero Makandal and an Arada midwife who committed infanticide to spare children from a life of enslavement. Close readings contrast Rosalie ’s representation of the legal trials against these figures with the accounts given in colonial source texts and prior postcolonial rewritings. This comparison reveals how Trouillot reimagines these narratives to restore their emotional weight, and uses the celebrated Makandal legend to frame the midwife

Abstract:
Si la fiction traverse le journal au xixe siècle, outrepassant les divisions entre les rubriques — ce que Marie-Ève Thérenty conçoit comme une forme de « littérarisation du journal » (2007) —, une réflexion sur les rapports entre les genres sexués reste encore à faire. S’intéressant aux effets provoqués par l’imaginaire et la fictionnalisation du féminin dans la presse canadienne-française de la deuxième moitié du xixe siècle, cet article examine les impacts de la compartimentation du masculin et du féminin dans des rubriques particulières sur les modalités du discours et la construction de la

C’est à la jonction d’une interrogation anthropologique et d’un questionnement poétique que souhaite se situer cette étude qui entreprend d’analyser comment la représentation des crimes dans les tragédies de l’ultra-violence met en lumière une pensée des genres voire en interroge les fondements et les présupposés, faisant par là des fictions dramatiques des outils euristiques efficaces. Il s’agit notamment de se demander si la violence est susceptible d’être agrégée au genre et de s’intéresser aux cas et aux formes de consentement à partir d’un corpus de tragédies représentant des femmes viole

Abstract:
Abstract In 1701 Puritan minister John Rogers published the criminal narrative of Esther Rodgers, who had been convicted of infanticide and executed. Esther Rodgers appears in Rogers’s Death the Certain Wages of Sin not as a depraved criminal or even a repentant sinner but as a courageous Christian martyr. Much of the productive recent scholarship on Rodgers studies the way her criminal status operated in the public sphere generally or print culture specifically, but the literary construction of her legal criminal status reveals a larger negotiation over marginalized individuals’ ability to co

Abstract:
The question of Tahiti population at contact was first addressed by assessing the reliability of early and later estimates, and then by a retrodiction based on the first reliable censuses and data on trends. Cook's famous estimate of 204,000 Tahitians, affected by a wrong number of districts, has been reworked based on his own and the Forsters' observations, using coast length and the age and sex structure of Tahiti population at contact in relation to infanticide, resulting in a range of 156,000-188,000 persons in 1774, before Boenechea's flu in 1772 and the 1774 flu epidemics.

Abstract:
This chapter analyzes Freeman’s representation of infanticide from a transatlantic perspective. Through a comparative reading of Freeman’s short story “Old Woman Magoun” and the turn-of-the-century Greek novella A Murderess by Alexandros Papadiamantis, the chapter argues that the murder of female infants or (infantilized) female children is an act of resistance against a patriarchal system that commodifies women on the marriage market. Both texts weave a gender critique that conveys women’s restorative power and evokes a transgressive genealogy of monstrous motherhood epitomized by La Llorona,
