Full textWhile the body of the common people has inspired many sociological and anthropological approaches, our research has focused on the study of the body image of aristocratic characters in french seventeenth century comic and tragic dramaturgies.Although the often heroic presence of this social category is part of the so-called "noble" genre of tragedy, it is, and according to a long Aristotelian tradition, banned from the comic genre considered more susceptible to the mediocre, even the ugly, physical and moral, and to consider things of the body. Based on a corpus of sixty comedies and tragicomedies dating from 1629 to 1690, our study of the physical images of the nobles then leads to a particular aesthetic that makes us question the compatibility between the often idealizing representation of the "honest men" and laughter. However, to highlight the pleasant presence of the noble body on stage, we referred to a more subtle notion than the comic, that of the drollery which lies between the approval of the celebration of the beauties of the aristocrats concerned by the action and the pleasant awareness of the excesses of this perfection, between the disconcerting inventiveness, even the grandeur, of the nobles who disguise themselves and the bursts of laughter inspired by some of their bodily or natural defects or failures, between the amused spectacle of their sensuality little annoyed or casual, the exultation aroused by their militant libertinism, which makes you think, and a kind of unease in front of the cynicism of the few, between the admiration of the talents of actors allowing good tricks, thanks to a beautiful gestural dexterity, and the jubilation inspired by the success of well-born protagonists. The stakes become even higher when it comes to the desire for freedom that the bodies express on stage, especially those of women when violent excesses or hypocritical behavior are represented. So many rich impressions that amplifies the setting in space and in voice by actors who also let hear a kind of mystery of the words. All the shades of drollery, of a comic that we perceive as a little strange, seem to have been experienced by our dramatic poets to bring the nobles to the comic scene and, at one time, to the mixed genre of tragi-comedy

Full textSeventeenth century libertinism does not constitute a single harmonious philosophy, nor does it reduce to mere anti-christianism. Libertine thought is obviously in conflict with christian doctrine, but should not be reduced to this conflict alone : libertinism possesses its own logic and coherence, which it is important to grasp in order to understand authorial strategies. The analysis of the libertine protocol of reading and writing — their complex style, their rhetorical use of quotations, their irony — seems to us the best approach. Gabriel Naudé, François de la Mothe le Vayer, Cyrano de Bergerac and Charles Sorel read a very select library of books which they appropriate before beginning to write their own. To understand what is at stake in this protocol, it is important to determine the philosophical, rhetorical and stylistic coherence of libertine discourse. In the fields of religion, history and natural philosophy, the libertines tackle the question of knowledge from a very critical standpoint. Two domains — historiography and the reading of travelers’ accounts of their journeys — seem especially significant. Our authors elaborate an image of man and the world which competes with christian representations. Man loves myths : he has an inherent tendency to abandon critical distance. The libertines believe that it is most important to analyse the psychological mechanism that gives birth to conviction and belief. Writing strategies are the philosopher’s rhetorical answer to the anthropological analysis of human beliefs

Full textIn the times immediately following the Religious Wars, at the dawn of the Galilean revolution, the seventeenth century opens on a world without bearings, where theology seems unable to answer all the questions any longer. The only thing man has left is to turn toward himself : subject and object of this new epistemology, he takes the place of God, and of every principle of unity, as a point of reference ; that’s the reason why we see here the birth of some anthropological thought strictly speaking. In the relations that this very thought – still faltering – is having with literature – in many respects its breeding ground – but also with philosophy, the part of the “libertins érudits” is not often put forward ; the critical attitude which defines them however makes them the spearhead of a new way of thinking. So the “anthropological” discourse which emerges in their writings – descendants of Montaigne and Charron – first and foremost characterizes man as a creature fed by believes and representations, and this from the ethical, as well as from the political or aesthetic point of view. We would like to explore these different fields of research through an analysis of representations, especially in La Mothe Le Vayer’s and Cyrano de Bergerac’s works. The choice of such a corpus lies in the multiplicity of the genres it allows to explore, and the diverse influences (scepticism and epicureanism, among others) which feed it, and which make it an enriching gateway to the thought of the “libertins érudits”
Gengoux, Nicole. "Le "Theophrastus redivivus" ou l'athéisme comme position philosophique à l'Age classique." Lyon, Ecole normale supérieure, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008ENSF0048.
Full textThe Theophrastus Redivivus, an illicit voluminous anonymous treatise written in 1659, shows that atheism could be a philosophical position in itself. Building up a reading method to decipher this libertine text, we were able to show that it was not a simple “collage” of quotations from Antiquity and Italian Renaissance sources, but that it provided a coherent argumentation, a complete materialist system including canonics, physics, and ethics. Even a policy based on the individual natural law is sketched up. The Theophrastus allows us to correct the machiavelian « libertine’s » traditional image. The classical theory of the imposture of religions does not prevent a reassessment of them: religions essential core, a kind of minimal credo, is the expression of a natural law, that of self- love. The people is able to understand priests’ cunning tricks, and the “Sage” doesn’t part completely from him: the treatise itself has an educational value. The anonymous author’s ontology displays dynamic naturalism which inherits from the padovan aristotelism, but breaks off from the pantheistic or animated naturalism of the Renaissance, and anticipates Spinoza’s naturalism. Modernity is seen as digging its roots into the Padovan Aristotelian tradition, independently from modern physics and Descartes. The Theophrastus is a missing link between “erudite libertinage” and “radical Enlightenment”. Finally it shows that the natural law tradition is not specifically Christian: for the atheist, politics replaces metaphysics. While explaining beliefs, atheism is the expression of the perpetual struggle of reason against imagination, two productions of nature

Full textThe libertine novelists of the 17th century wrote frequently in first person. Nevertheless, their use of the first person narrator did not lead to a personal configuration of a heterodox vision of the world. Characterized by irony and concealment, the libertine practice of self-diegetic writing is the product of a process of declarative dissociation: the auctorial point of view is well separated by the narrative one that, in its tom, lost its own ideological discourse and became a series of heterogeneous points of view. This study aims at analyzing this process through sorne works such as the Histoire comique de Francion (1623) by Charles Sorel, the Première journée (1623) by Théophile de Viau, Les Aventures satyriques de Florinde (1625, anonymous), Le Gascon extravagant (1637) by Onésime de Claireville, Le Page disgracié (1643) by Tristan L'Hermite, L'Autre Monde (1657-1662) by Cyrano de Bergerac, L'Orphelin infortuné (1660) by César François Oudin de Préfontaine, Les Aventures (1677) by Charles Coypeau Dassoucy, La Terre Australe connue (1676) by Gabriel de Foigny and the Histoire des Sévarambes (1677-1679) by Denis Veiras. At the end of the path characterized by the analysis of these texts, the subjectivity marking out libertine first person narrator novels seems to be a dissociated subject, hanging on the neuter declarative space where its contradictory impulses takes place

Full textLibertine novels are not only pornography. During the 18th century, they are at the root of a philosophical and literary device, where fiction reflects and inspires reflection. Although the body of Libertine novels from Crébillon's Sylphe ( 1730) to Sade's Juliette ( 1797) is very diverse, the scam that runs through it is a distinctive oscillation between erotic scenes and philosophical debates. Rather than rewriting philosophical theories, the Libertine novels offer a literary way to philophize. Those novels offer experiences to the reader. Shilling philosophy towards the “boudoir”, the Libertine novel reconcile body and mind, theory and practice

Full textMusset's writing owes more than usually recognized to eighteenth-century libertine writers. This becomes clear when we remove old critical stereotypes and take a fresh look at his works. The very locations in which the stories take place hearken to the libertine tradition, drawing the picture of a sophisticated, worldly universe, confined to a few urban centres (Paris, Venice) and to some privileged, interior settings imbued with sensuality (boudoirs, petites-maisons). The key is evocation rather than description, literary reminiscences rather than the observation of reality. Musset's characters, too, display traits that set them in the tradition of the heroes of the libertine novel, in a relationship equally comprising admiration and desired imitation, as well as polemical opposition and reinterpretation. They are, notably, good talkers and seducers. Whether employed in dangerous and corrupting designs, or in more playful and lighthearted tones, their speech is marked by a language, a phrasing, a style, a seductive intent typical of libertine writing. This is precisely where we can recognize the most fruitful and most deeply rooted libertine heritage in Musset's works: an elegant and allusive language, which suggests eroticism and desire without vulgarity; a style composed of decent yet evocative metaphors, insinuating reticence, artful ellipses. It is finally a way of writing that elicits the reader's complicitous cooperation and irresistibly seduces him. Between reviving and transcending the libertine model, reusing and ironically distorting the clichés derived from this tradition, Musset's work develops its originality and its charm
Szabries, Carmen. "Libertinage et libertins dans les romans d’Andréa de Nerciat." Paris 4, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA040007.
Full textThe following thesis proposes three main questions : how realistic is Nerciat’s portrayal of his libertines? What ethical imperatives drive his literary creations ? What kind of literary devices does Nerciat employ to express a libertinage that is at once joyous and playful ? Nerciat’s writing exemplifies a voluptuousness and excessive pleasure that combine to create a unique universe full of exquisite charm. Shaped by a self-sufficient hedonism, his libertines live with the single-minded aim of fulfilling their ideal of pleasure, but do so without experiencing any great suffering. It soon becomes apparent that Nerciat is a master of writing : his style is characterised by a fluency of pace; the weaving together of textual elements is coherent and the content is inventive. Overall, the author reveals an imagination that is overpowering, but which reins itself in at the service of a comic humour that engages completely both the reader’s attention and his approbation

Full textThis thesis concerns the first work by Jean-Louis Guez de Balzac, published in 1624, and the controversy that ensued. A publishing event of the 1620s, the collection of Lettres was the result of an attempt by Balzac, who was past master in the art of putting both his own person and his works on display, to be accepted as the pre-eminent orator of his time. With this displacement from the oral to the written medium, and from speech to mere letters, eloquence here became an art designed to give pleasure: it abandoned its favourite domain, political action, for the entertainment of an audience of people that frequent Court and high society. This much is demonstrated in Balzac's very style, which shows that from the constructions of classical rhetoric he mainly keeps an art of ornate discourse that enhances the refinements of an artistic form of writing that is held up as a model of prose along with that of Malherbe. Applause was, however, quickly followed by a major literary quarrel. Driven by Catholic apologists, this controversy shows the level of resistance created by Balzac's modernity, which is condemned out of respect for the Graeco-Roman inheritance, and in line with a type of religious discourse for which the culture of 'eloquence' was a sign of pride, and for which the search for new forms was a proof of freethinking. But the quarrel intensified, and went beyond the original debate about the Lettres, giving rise to a whole series of publications and encouraging a wide range of points of view. This event thus harnesses the energies of about twenty different authors, and put on show a great variety of literary careers and philosophies, a study of which allows us to seize the complex issues latent in publishing and writing practices at a period when the domain of literature and fine arts was becoming institutionalised
