Full textThe primary object of this dissertation is to explore the concept and the manifestations of Metamorphosis, with special reference to the Lais of Marie de France. In Chapter 1 the all-pervasive nature of Metamorphosis is examined. Attention is focused on the fact that Metamorphosis occurs in all spheres: it may be seen in Nature, in physical development and in many less visible forms such as emotional, attitudinal and moral transformations and transgressions in which it plays a fundamental role. Chapter 2 focuses on the Twelfth Century Renaissance. This chapter serves to emphasize a further aspect of Metamorphosis, that of social change and intellectual development. It thus situates Marie de France in a historical context and clarifies the Zeitgeist to which she was exposed, which influenced her writing and which she in turn influenced. In Chapter 3 I analyze the individual Lais. Marie de France's approach to her material is that her interest lies in the exploration of the emotional, spiritual, moral and attitudinal Metamorphosis which her characters undergo. The analysis reveals the beginnings of a change in genre. A further Metamorphosis of these tales becomes evident when an addition is made to the purely anecdotal material: the authoress adds a Christian dimension and inserts a subtle moral message. In Chapter 4 the findings of the analyses of the individual lais are grouped in order to gain a more precise understanding of the kind of Metamorphosis the various topoi have undergone in the course of the tale. Chapter 5 is devoted to the elucidation of the narratological Metamorphosis the traditional tales undergo in the process.

Full textAuthors who lived at the Plantagenet court created a historical and cultural myth that was meant to contribute to the political and social consolidation of the kingdom. Marie de France’s Lais are situated in this context. The first part of my thesis focuses on how and why Marie addresses the historiographical work of Wace. Not only is his influence visible in the lais but his voluminous poetical chronicle might have inspired in Marie the very idea of composing a collection of twelve lais. The second part brings to light a significant number of intertextual connections between Marie de France and Chrétien de Troyes. It is argued that Marie saw some similarities between the tales of Celtic origin about the transformation of humans into animals and Ovid’s Metamorphoses, translated by young Chrétien de Troyes. In his turn, Chrétien did not hesitate to allude to Marie’s Lais, more or less openly. The third part centers on the key notions and certain genres of troubadour poetry as a potential source of Marie’s Lais. The fourth part examines the parodic aspect in the reception of the Matter of Britain and of Marie’s Lais by anonymous authors. The results of my research have lead me to the conclusion that Marie radically transformed the cultural and literary status of Breton tales, filling them with reminiscences of her contemporaries’ writings, ennobling the characters of her tales in accordance with the new moral code of the court, and endowing them with the gloss of a fairy-tale ideality. Her immediate successors made this gloss even more pronounced. Thus the genre of the lai acquired a precise shape, and the Breton chronotope became an essential element of the lai

Full textIn the twelfth century, Marie de France was the first female author when she wrote The Lays. The Genji Monogatari of Murasaki Shikibu (a woman as well), written in the tenth century in Heian-Kyô Japan (a time when the imperial Court was located in the "Peace Capital", Kyoto) is exceptional too due to a male-dominated literary landscape and for such a voluminous. This study suggests a contrastive and mythocritical approach comparing the two works in the observation through a feminine imaginary of love and the Other. The main objective of this study is to determine if the common motives indicate the universality defined by the context, or reveal a common eurasiatic origin. The notion of "courtly love", a western creation, is applicable to the loving ethic developped in the Genji Monogatari. However, it necessitates an enlarged conception centered on codification and refinement of loving behaviour, as described in literature. In addition, we looked into the connexions of both texts with archetypal eurasiatic narratives, as the swan-maiden bathing, or a male version about men-animals (falcon or snake). The latter behave as "dead-alives", going and coming according to lunar and agrarian (therefore seasonal) cycle, between the Other World and the human world. Finally, this feminine imaginary is based on the representation of the exiles, and the writing in exile, demonstrating its intrinsic marginality

Full textHere are five analyses of space and settings in epic (the chanson de Roland, the chanson de Guillaume, the chanson d'Aspremont) and novel (the roman de Thebes, the Lais of Marie de France) in 12th century; they concern the study of depicted space - settings - and the way it is really depicted - "poetic" (which at once covers rhetorical pro- cesses or epic description, based on obvious phrases, and the structure itself of epic canto and novelistic text). So, outer settings are studied : nature, town, battlefields, and inner settings : the court, architectural surroundings, and also the plausibility stage the authors use to make their characters live in landscapes (expression of their points of view, of their spatial perception) and above all aesthetic, ideological, intertextual implications of these settings : the treatment of light; the expression of horror and sacred in epic; the different representations of kingship and power; the deep significance of emmently symbolical productions

Full textThis thesis is in two parts. The first is a study of free indirect speech in general. I have examined the main theories on the subject which have been published up to the present time, insisting, on the one hand, on all aspects and points of view which seem justifiable and, on the other, criticising those which pertain in my opinion to misdirected analysis or preconceived ideas. I have made a specific study of free indirect speech in medieval literature. Traditionnally free indirect speech is supposed not to have been known in the middle ages. The second part of my thesis aims to prove otherwise. Taking as a basis the works of marie de france, i have illustrated the fact that not only did this type of reported discourse really exist in the middle ages, but it is in fact to be found as frequently and in as many guises as in the literatures of other centuries. It is only the fact that it is largely constructed on a model that the naturalistic novels of the last century (the usual period for this type of discourse) rarely used which could partly explain the classic misunderstanding of medieval free indirect discourse

Galletti, Sara. "Marie de Médicis et le Palais du Luxembourg." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA040273.
Full textThe history of the Luxembourg Palace, the first Royal Palace ever built in Paris following a unitary design, had not been the object of a complete monograph since 1904-1910-11. Unpublished or not completely exploited archival sources bring a better understanding of its project and of its economical planning between 1611 and 1615, as well as further knowledge on the building construction - left incomplete in 1631 after the Queen's definitive exile - under its different directors, Salomon de Brosse, Jacques Lemercier and , for the garden, Tommaso Francini. For the first time the interior distribution of the Queen's apartment is also clarified, thus revealing the similarities, despite the differences of the architectural setting, with the Queen's apartment in the Louvre. Suburban Parisian residence built by a Florentine princess, the architecture of the Luxembourg is completely original one, the result of the creative mixture of French and Italian traditions. Dedicated to the couple once formed by Maria de' Medici and Henri IV -as shown by the iconography of the sculpted and painted decorations - the Palace cannot be simplistically interpreted : other that "house" referred to in 1611, the Queen has built a memorial Palace, so that nobody, within the contemporary political context, can forget the source of her authority and power

Full textIn Medieval society the truth was held in the highest esteem. The belief in an omniscient God whose Word is truth guarantees this conviction: thoughts and speeches must be coherent and free of falsehood. The deceptive situations, abundant in courtly narratives are a direct contradiction of this moral call. They challenge the ideal and gladly Manichean world of courtly literature, blurring the clear oppositions between dissimulation and revelation, hypocrisy and sincerity. The usually discursive aspect of lie questions the author’s work in a period where the Romanic literature becomes aware of its stakes. The matter of language and its adequacy with truth is a fundamental concern. Furthermore, the status of fiction, even more troublesome, gives way to a constant tension between the authenticity of the narrative and the fictionalisation of the author figure, appearing less a poet and more a storyteller

Full textThe @folklorist François-Marie Luzel (1821-1895) is known for having put together the largest existing collection of West Breton folktales, popular dramas and folksongs. Nonetheless, for ever a century, his work remained largely unpublished and ignored by researchers, and a biography, bibliography and catalogue of his archives had yet to be done. This thesis aims first and foremost to provide an overview of the publication project, now in progress, of a 24-volume methodical edition of Luzel's works, and -now that 12 volumes have been completed - to give a detailed account of what has been so far achieved : this includes explaining the purpose of this publication, describing its approach, pointing out omissions and planning the contents and order of publication of the remaining volumes. This edition being necessarily based on preliminary and complementary research, the second aim of this thesis is to provide a synthesis of all existing knowledge on the subject, thanks to a biography, a bibliography, a catalogue of archives and a computerized classification of Luzel's works. The third aim of this thesis is to place this edition within a historical context. Indeee, it had to be explained on one hand why, during the past century, it had been consistently impossible to prepare a methodical edition of Luzel's works, and on the other, why the Breton nationalists were opposed to this edition. In conclusion, the principal interest of this publication seems to be the opportunity it provides to study nationalist rhetoric
Thomas, Chantal. "Le personnage de Marie-Antoinette dans les pamphlets : éléments d'une mythologie." Lyon 2, 1991. http://www.theses.fr/1991LYO20050.
Full textThis work concerns a rather rarely studied corpus : pamphlets against the queen Marie-Antoinette. Our thesis is divided into three parts : the pamphlet as a genre, metamorphosis of the images of a queen, ,similarities between Sade and the universe of pamphlets. - in the first part we try to define the pamphlet through its material and stylistics characteristics. In order to illustrate these considerations we present an analysis of a specific pamphlet : Essai historique sur la vie de Marie-Antoinette d'Autriche, reine de France et de Navarre. . . 1789, chosen for its popular success its referential value in the context of that marginal press. - The second part, central, includes the elements of the myth of the "wicked queen” , the "monster queen", we expose the accusations against Marie-Antoinette in the ascendant order of their gravity. The queen is accused by the pamphleteers of being flighty, libertine, cruel, - in the third part, we propose an approach of the work of Sade as testimony of the great unpopularity of aristocratic libertinage and as a literary amplification of the violence of the pamphlets
Jensen, Laura Bea. "Writing Race and Universalism in Contemporary France| Marie NDiaye and Bessora." Thesis, Yale University, 2017. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10633251.
Full textMy dissertation shows how two women writers, Marie NDiaye and Bessora articulate the experience of being black in France, while, at the same time affirming the French Republican tenet that racial identification does violence to individuals, communities, and the nation itself. Despite their similar backgrounds, despite the fact that they reside in the same country, and that they write about a similar cast of characters in a similar milieu, Bessora and NDiaye are not typically seen as belonging to a shared literary category or tradition. NDiaye is categorized as a "French" author and Bessora as "Francophone." Although their novels might not be found in the same section of a French bookstore, when considered together, their works create a dialogue on race in today's France that cannot be overlooked.
In chapter one I focus on NDiaye's 1999 novella La Naufragée . This work combines art and fiction, featuring paintings by English artist Joseph Mallord William Turner, most notably The Slave Ship (1840). In this chapter, I show how the narrator, a meilnaid, functions as an allegory for racial mixing. Drawing on Walter Benjamin's ideas on allegory, I demonstrate how the novella links the author's own non-white body to the historical bodies of human chattel drowned in the Middle Passage. This novella challenges the notion that France can ever be blind to race, given its history of chattel slavery.
Paradoxically, it is through allegory that NDiaye demonstrates the real violence and pain inflicted on the black body by the ideology of race-blindness. I build on these ideas in chapter two, examining the effects that the particular allegorical significance of the black body has on black subjects. Here I uncover a powerful intertextual thread running through NDiaye's 2012 novel Ladivine. Though NDiaye's understanding of race is undeniably French, she looks to the United States, to the Harlem Rennaissance and the passing novel to articulate the experience of being both black and entirely culturally French. I explore the dissociative effect produced when an individual, who sees herself as "universal," i.e. French like "everyone else," inhabits a nonwhite body. I extended my analysis beyond Ladivine to touch on Rosie Carpe (2001) and Trois Femmes Puissantes (2009). My analysis of these works reveals the ways in which French universalism is, paradoxically, geographically conscripted. The historical realities of slavery and of colonialism continue to impact the ways in which black bodies are seen in the metropole and in Overseas Departments, and profoundly influence the ways in which black subjects conceive of themselves.
In Chapter three I turned to Bessora, analyzing her first two novels, 53 cm (1999) and Les taches d'encre (2000). Bessora wrote both of these while pursuing a doctorate in anthropology. However, current scholarship tends to interpret her literary output as standing in direct conflict with her academic pursuits;that her novels, so rich in satire and pastiche, serve to reject or simply "write back" against the fields she was studying at the time. These analyses assume a necessarily conflictual relationship between black writers and the social sciences. I argue that in the tradition of many French anthropologists and authors before her, Bessora should be seen as both a literary author and a social scientist. By handing the tools of anthropological analysis to characters of color in these novels, Bessora does not invalidate a social scientific way of viewing the world; rather, she universalizes the anthropological gaze. She combines postmodern and anthropological narrative techniques to critique the way that race is constructed in France; she exposes the ways in which Republican values work to reinforce nationalism and white supremacy, and fall short of their universalist ambitions.
Chapter four builds on the ideas established in chapter three by comparing Bessora's dissertation, "Mémories Pétrolières au Gabon," (2002) with her novel Petroleum (2004), on the same subject. As an author of Gabonese descent who was raised and educated primarily in Europe, Bessora offers a complex insider/outsider perspective on her father's country (a country that was also her home for ten years), its history, and its memories of colonization. Reading these two texts side by side reveals both the interdependency between literature and the social sciences in both Bessora's fiction and in the French literary scene more generally. She writes from a vexed position of privilege, for which she has not yet fully accounted. Bessora's own stance towards universalism, her post-national identity which ironically gathers up identitarian labels and categories, obfuscates a more fraught relationship to the national history of Gabon, and to French neo-colonialism there.

Full textIn this biographical study I analysed the mobilisation of diverse resources required for defining, defending and promoting a hypothetical Flemish identity in Northrn France by focusing on the main leader of a nationalitarian entreprise. I demonstrated what commitment for French Flanders implied to Priest Jean-Marie Gantois. In the first part I examined his intellectual apprenticeship, his reactions towards contemporary ideologies and the making of his own doctrine on archetypal Flanders. In the second part I determined his position in several social fields, his involvement in creating interactional modes and his responsability for some invented traditions. In the third part I studied his conception of collective action, his actual initiatives and his endeavour to institutionalise a nationalitarian dynamic

Full textMichel-Marie Derrion was born in Lyon in the penultimate year of the Consular Republic. During his youth, Michel Derrion fils lived in the midst of proletarian struggles in the Croix-Rousse district. When he was not working in his father's silk workshop, he used to attend conferences on Saint-Simon and the ideas of Charles Fourier. In 1834, he published his first brochure about the creation of a social fund for the organization of fair trade. In the following years, he founded the first industrial cooperative in Lyon called Le Commerce Véridique et Social. This establishment collapsed in 1837 and Michel Derrion left Lyon to go to Paris. There, he made new acquaintances and founded the Industrial Union with other members in 1841. The latter was a community structured based on the ideas of Fourier, and of which the objective was to settle in southern Brazil. The colonial project began in December 1841 but proved to be a failure for polítical reasons. Michel Derrion died on March 12, 1850, in Rio de Janeiro. The story of Michel-Marie Derrion offers a relevant case study to develop the knowledge of French migration in the mid-19th century: the migration that pushed young provincial men to Paris looking for work and freedom, but also the migration that led people across the Atlantic to the New World. This biographical project aims to investigate Michel Derrion's life experiences (from Lyon to Paris and Brazil), his relationships, his professional networks, his political convictions and his peregrinations, in a context of Atlantic exchanges between France and Brazil

Full textThis thesis aims to reconsider the traditional historiography of radioactivity, which has usually been assimilated to atomic and nuclear physics. Focusing on the case of the curie laboratory, it shows that before the first world war, the area of radioactivity was defined in the bounderies of physics and chemistry and represented an heterogeneous set : each laboratory had its own instrumentation, material and theoretical practices, activities which characterized and structured it. This study describes the regime of functionning of the curie laboratory by considering all its activities and trying to recover the own research logic and action of its director marie curie. Based on important archive materials, this work presents marie curie as a real scientific entrepreneur who succeeded in establishing one of the most important scientific research laboratories in france and in setting it of the center of a powerful scientific, industrialist, medical, instrumental and metrological network. A strategy of accumulation of radioactive substances (radium, polonium, actinium. . . ), initiated very early, allowed the curie laboratory to position itself in the radioactivists community as an important specialist of the preparation of radioactive sources. This laboratory played a key rolle for all people interested in the studies and applications of radioelements, the scientists of course, but also the mining prospectors, the industrialists or the physiologists

Full textMarie de France wrote in England, around 1170, the first book of fables in the French language, original both by its extent (104 fables) and by its diversity.The first half is an adapation of classical fables taken from the Romulus tradition and in particular from one of Romulus’ many offsprings, the Romulus de Nilant, written before the 10th century. Marie translated from latin a lost intermediary, the *Anglo-latin Romulus, from which also derives the Hexametrical Romulus (10th century). Though Marie asserts in her epilogue that she worked from an English book, historical context and contemporary sources suggest a fictitious claim. The main characteristic of her adaptation of the fables from Antiquity is the recasting of the classical power struggles into the feodal context.The second half is far more diverse and contains other fables from Antiquity probably gathered by Marie herself as well as many fables of unknown sources but whose origins can be linked to different emerging genres of the XIIth century : the comic story in all its varied forms from which the fabliau will soon be born (songs, tales, aphorisms), known to Marie by way of the clerical world ; the beast epic taking shape during the XIth and the XIIth centuries, accessible to Marie in manuscripts collecting latin animal poems ; at least two exemples of Arabic fables and “philosophical” fables taken from predicators or entirely invented by the author.The repartition of theses fables in her anthology-like book shows that Marie could have built it by “finding” (trover, meaning both finding and inventing) diverse materials from many origins over a lenghty period of time

Full textThis dissertation focuses on the construction and framing of femininity in Marie-Claire magazine since its first publication in 1937. The title reflects the choice to break down this history of gender narratives with three chronological landmarks. The use and development of femininity as a concept begins in 1937 with narratives focusing on the notion of beauty, and visually embodied in pictures of smiling women. In 1954, these narratives shift their focus to the household, and femininity starts being typically represented by a woman wearing an apron. Finally, in 1968, narratives of women emancipation appear. The former two framings correspon to the emergence of an innovative industrial production specifically tailored to women, including cosmetics and household appliances. They also proceed from changes in relationships between genders in society at large, and from the effect of scientific and technical progress on daily life. The use and reliance on the analysis of pictures and other visual representations throughout this study serves to highlight several characteristics of the development of media narratives: they are co-constructed between editorial and advertising contents, between images and speech, anc between industrials and readers stories. In this dissertation, I argue that the generalized use of this visual imagery specific to each of the three aforementioned narratives is both a sign of thai these models are being constructed into norms by the magazine and a sign that these proposed norms are in turn favorably received by their readership. This argument, in turn, calls into question the commonly held notion that the content of women's press is alienating to its readership

Full textThe settlement of Montparnace by artists and poets in the beginning of the 20 th centrury coincided by time with the new “wave” of Russian talents : Mark Shagal, Sergey Sharshun, Haim Sutin, Maria Vasilyeva – Marie Vassilieff. The author regards the gifted Russian artist Marie Vassilieff, who lived and worked at Monparnace hundred years ago (her works were presented at the exhibition Ecole de Paris that took place in winter 2000/2001 at the Paris Museum of Modern Art). The former became the matriarch of Monparnace clan when she was 25. The history of her life occupies 620 pages of the “thèse”, containing the events of that time artistic bohemia, meetings that became legendary, and also the establishment of Academia Marie Vassilieff that attracted such students as Picasso, Brak, Leger, Modiliani, Sutin, Tsadkin… While preparing the “thèse”, it became obvious the Vassilieff was inequitably “forsaken” : it was difficult to find her works ; fortunately, there is collector Claude Bernés in Paris who has the biggest part of the heritage. (Claude Bernés appeared very farseeing and although there is no museum of Marie Vassilieff, there exists the collection of her works in the small apartement on rue Pierre Senar where the cult of person of artist is thriving. ) Vasilieva’s life was as dramatic as was the life of any woman who chose art and freedom

Full textThis thesis addresses the role of dress in the blurring of social class lines in pre-revolutionary France. The Ancien Régime had a set code for costume, in accordance with rank and birth. I outline this particular order, and the resulting disorder from this social structure through factual evidence and literary examples. The second part will discuss the creation and practice of fashion in the 18th century, leading up to the Estates General of 1789. This building significance of appearance in France made dress both a political and social tool that became incredibly useful during the French Revolution

Full textThis study is an iconographic’s synthesis of the appartment’s décoration of the queens of France, under the regencies of Marie de’ Medici and Anna of Austria. As the queen, mother and only wife of a king, appartments’themes - in union with the rooms where they take place - are often and naturally link with feminine vocable. Lots of subjects insist on the women’s vertu, her intrinsic qualities (capacities), exalting the queen picture and personality. Another themes, sometimes the same, underline her functions, at the heat of the state : asserting her power and her abilities for governing. As the appartment of king of France’s iconography, this apologitic discourse, offering a lovely and flattering picture of the queen, serve the monarchic propaganda. The queen is compare with the goddess of Peace and wisdom (like Minerve), she is regard as restorer of peace, of cohesion in her city felicity and prosperity. She doesn’t forget her next advisers, on the contrary, a complet room of Anna of Austria summer’s appartment in the Louvre, illustrate the worths of her minister, Mazarin. A large part of the iconography is allowed to religious subjects, whixh show the character (nature) godly and devout of Marie de’ Medici and Anne of Austria. At last, some ornaments, landscapes and grotesques, embellish and complete this decoration

Full textThe dissertation entitled ‘Manifestations of Marie Leszczyńska’s cultural activity at the court of Versailles. The Queen’s musical life’ consists of six chapters and an epilogue. The first part concerns the genealogy of the Leszczyński house and the cultural traditions of the family passed down from generation to generation from the 16th to the 18th century. The second chapter is devoted to the youth and education of Marie Leszczyńska and the marriage of young Polish noblewoman to the king of France and of Navarre – Louis XV. The third chapter presents the organization and functioning of queen Marie’s court – Maison de la Reine. It also includes an attempt to compare its personnel to that of Marie Leszczyńska’s predecessor, Maria-Theresa of Spain, the wife of king Louis XIV. Another part of the dissertation deals with the cultural aspects of court entertainments in which Leszczyńska took part as the queen of France. It enumerates and describes the court balls, theatre, extraordinary feasts connected with, e. G. Weddings of the royal children or parties organized by the queen in her apartments. The fifth part presents Marie Leszczyńska’s passion for music, the role and position of music at the court of Versailles, the rhythm and repertoire of the concerts organized by the queen. The last chapter of the dissertation is devoted to the musical education of Marie Leszczyńska’s and Louis XV’s children, for whom music was a real life passion. The thesis ends with an epilogue, describing the circumstances of the death of Marie Leszczyńska, queen of France and of Navarre, in 1768. The dissertation also contains an abundant appendix based on 18th century source materials

Full textP-m theas, first bishop of montauban, then of tarbes and lourdes, has left popular stock-pictures of himself as a peasant, a worker of the french resistance and a red. The historian is confronted with these pictures hiding the true nature of his character but also with the problem of sources (as they aren't all available) and that of biography. P-m theas protested against the persecution of the jews in 1942. Though he has first supported the vichy government, he also rebelled against the labour deportation and against the intimidations of the german occupation troops. After acting as a diplomat between france and the holly see, he became involved in social issues, fighting frontically against communism. Unable to find a solution to the dramatic shortage of religious callings in his diocese, incapable of keeping up a good relationship with the clergy, he nevertheless proved to be a very good bishop for lourdes as he understood the role the sanctuary could have in the world and decided that its theological message should be studied, thus giving lourdes the place it deserved within the church

Full textThis thesis examines the scientific and intellectual universe of Marie Bonaparte (1882-1962) who was both a pioneer and patron of the French psychoanalytic movement. The purpose of this work is to establish the cultural c1imate in which the Princess of Greece and the first French psychoanalysts evolved. This research utilized analyses of unpublished archived documents belonging to Marie Bonaparte as well as a thorough study of the institutional life and articles of the Revue Française de Psychanalyse (RFP) between 1927 and 1962. Today, biographical anecdotes concerning the Princess of Greece are more famous than her scientific work. A student and friend of Sigmund Freud, she was a model of orthodox to her contemporaries. However, she developed a conception of the field -anchored in the natural sciences rather than the human sciences -that went against the ideological current of post-war french psychoanalysis. This study does not represent a new biographical account of Marie Bonaparte, but rather an intellectual and cultural history of psychoanalysis through the prism of a major player who was also an emblematic personality or the French movement. I use the Marie Bonaparte archives of the French National Library. An analysis of her letters highlights the significance of her social networks, particularly within the Parisian Psychoanalytic Society, the Pasteur Institute, and the literary circles. I also completed a study of the RFP that aims at recontextualizing the "biologizing" claims of the Princess of Greece by confronting her texts with those of the first French psychoanalysts

Full textThe parisian literary establishment, strengthened by its prestige and hegemony, implicitly undervalues french literature produced in the provinces and outside France. The organisation of peripheral literary networks can therefore be seen as an institutional process of compensation aimed at promoting literature and writers from outside the capital. The Breton writer Marie Le Franc (1879-1964), who arrived in Quebec in 1906, activated such networks between writers in France and Quebec. This thesis aims to understand the genesis, working methods and achievements of these networks. It proposes a new, regional, perspective on the literary relationships between France and Quebec during the first half of the twentieth century in order to better understand the evolution of this particular area of cultural internationalisation

Full textIn 1631, Mary de’ Médici (1573-1642), queen mother of the French king, opposed to Richelieu’s government, precipitately leaves the kingdom to find shelter at the court of Brussels. Until her death in 1642, she never succeeds, in spite of many attempts, to be allowed to come back to France. She lives in the Spanish Netherlands from 1631 to 1639. Then, after a short passage through the United Provinces, she stays in London until 1641, to move out again to Cologne, where she finally dies. Whereas the Thirty Years War tears Europe to pieces, Mary de’ Médici weaves bonds not only with foreign princes, but also with other French banned emigrants, such as Gaston of Orleans or the duchess of Chevreuse. The study of this outstanding situation reveals official or secret networks, which are built up and undone around those emigrants. The making and good working of those networks are ensured by a pool of ambassadors, courtiers, servants, who have various profiles and follow different purposes. By rebuilding the individual stories of these men, we can disclose the organic logic of this complex and moving party, in which the news arise and flow. We try to provide an analysis from the point of view of the material support and routing of information, but also according to its content, which may vary following the peculiar circumstances and political issues. The circulation and changes of the news affect the diplomatic deeds in a way that must be investigated and explained. Moreover, information, as a mirror of political thoughts, is reflecting codes, symbols, representations and behaviors. Therefore, the setting and showing of information can be seen as a significant matter for political studies

Full textThe implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) and the achievement of good ecological status for artificial water bodies in 2015 forced managers to define or adopt a certain sampling strategy in order to ensure ecological monitoring of reservoirs and provide some indices about water quality. Among the biological indices, phytoplankton has been proposed by the WFD as a quality index for lakes and is now identified as a potential bio-indicator as responding to changes in the trophic status of water bodies. Given the existence and / or the emergence of many tools for detection and monitoring of phytoplankton, we have tested and used a submersible spectrofluorometer in situ (bbe FluoroProbe) and flow cytometry (FACSCalibur) to propose the possibility of their use in the monitoring of the phytoplankton community in the Marne reservoir. Meanwhile, a determination of chlorophyll a and taxonomic analysis of phytoplankton were made. The Marne reservoir lake, also called Lac du Der-Chantecoq was commissioned in 1974 and is one of the largest reservoirs of Western Europe. Our work focused on two years, 2006 and 2007, where several stations and depths were sampled. It appears from our study that chlorophyll à measurements from the FluoroProbe and concentrations of chlorophyll a measured in the laboratory showed a highly significant correlation, and that the majority of the pigment groups detected by the probe were significantly correlated with Biovolume species characteristics of these groups. Because of the ease of use and reliability of this tool, we have concluded that it was appropriate for monitoring the water quality of the Marne reservoir. More complicated to use and not giving a partial message, flow cytometry, although very powerful, has shown these limits to this type of application. Through a method called multitable Partial Triadic Analysis, we could identify that there was a minimum number of stations to sample to account for the dynamics and diversity of phytoplankton in the whole reservoir. Three stations H, I and N have strong similarities in terms of dynamics and diversity of the phytoplankton community and the station H has been proposed as a reference station for the reservoir Marne. Three other stations, G(Champaubert Lake), J (northwest basin) and K (south-west basin) exhibited specific characteristics, making their sample also relevant. The preliminary study of environmental variables at the reference station showed that the dynamics of the reservoir and its phytoplankton community was not controlled by the same variable throughout the sampling period. In early spring, high concentrations of nitrates and strong inflows were associated with early growth of phytoplankton. In spring and early summer, rising phytoplankton biovolume was associated with the decrease in dissolved silica. In midsummer, we found the maximum phytoplankton biovolume, associated with high temperatures. Finally, the late summer and early autumn were characterized by a large outflow channel in the Marne and high concentrations of orthophosphate. Finally, two metric (out of 3 used) directly associated with the element phytoplankton (chlorophyll a , plankton index) allowed the classification of the ecological status of the Marne reservoir. These metrics were applied to the reference station and three other stations G, J and K to show the fragmented nature of this ecosystem, ie the differences between the main water mass and the other basins. It appears that the stations H and J had a good ecological status and mesotrophic although with a different phytoplankton composition and stations G and K had a rather eutrophic trophic status and poor environmental status
