Dubreuil, Philippe. "Les injures dans la littérature latine." Perpignan, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PERP1069.
Full textThe subject of this thesis is the research of the contribution of the antique latin abusive literary practise to the social complexity and to the imaginative world. The thesis develops, in three distinct parts, a statistical, linguistic, literary and sociological study of the abusive terms in all the literary genres (125 texts and 50 authors) from IIIrd century BC to the fell of Rome in 475. It includes : - Abuses and Latin language (Volume I). Through a corpus of 1370 words and 2344 quotations, the author studies the different types of abusive words, their origins, constructions, senses and how they are employed in the latin sentences. - Abuses and latin literature (Volumes II and III). The author lists the uses (frequency and density) of abusive terms in theatre, in speeches, in poetry and in prose (philosophical or political studies, novels, correspondence. . . ). He studies the role and the functions of abuses in the texts and the connection they have with poetry, rhetoric and eloquence. - Abuses and antique roman Society (Volume IV) where is analyzed the social field of abuses according to the social groups, the Men/Women relations and the different forms of the practice of abusing naming. A special chapter is devoted to the antique roman imaginative world of abuses. The conclusion is about the civilizing role of abuses as welle in the antique Rome as in our collective unconscious. The corpus of words and quotations is detailed in a lexicon Latin-French and an index French-Latin (tome V). The lexicon is also available in. Pdf format as a CD-Rom

Full textIn their factual narratives, Roman travelers represent their itineraries as means of foundation, through which they can assert their Greco-Roman identity and that of the landscape they cross. In contrast, the fiction of Apuleius elaborates a very different image of traveling, conceived as an exploration through which the traveler encounters the foreign, at the risk of losing his/her identity. .
Allorge-Courtin, Marie. "Les rues de Rome dans la littérature latine." Paris 4, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA040139.
Full textLatin writers give an often negative and stereotypical image of the streets of Rome, out of step with the reality as evidenced by other legal, archaeological or epigraphical sources. Far from being anecdotal, those literary descriptions provide a profund reflection on the city and the brought forth material, societal, political, economical, philosophical, and moral issues. Place of ciculation and encounters, the street is depicted as and ugly, untidy, and violent world despite the control of the authorities. The partial view of the everyday life given by the image of the streets in Urbs mainly contributes to the criticism of the urban civilisation as the journeys within the city symbolise the societal divides that structure the Roman siciety. Among the satirists of the imperial era, this criticism coexists with a personal attachment to the streets, a world of propitious to poetic inspiration
Salat, Pierre. ""Heureux" et "malheureux" en latin : étude sémantique, stylistique et statistique." Paris 4, 1987. http://www.theses.fr/1987PA040311.
Full textThis work concerns the adjectives and the adverbs meaning "happy", "happily" or "unhappy", "unhappily" in Latin within a corpus of 4 600 000 occurrences including the most part of the literary texts (prose and poetry) from the origins to the 1st quarter of the 2d century p. C. The first part is mainly quantitative, with chapters about word-count, statistical characters of the qualifiers (frequency and dispersion), correlation between the employment of the most frequent adjectives, definition and practice of a method of quantitatively and qualitatively appreciating the so qualified substantives. In the second part one can find monographs devoted to the words meaning "unhappy" : miser, the most frequent, misere and derivated words like misellus, miserabilis, miserandus. Then follow the adjectives with a negative prefix: infelix, infaustus, improsper (us), infortunatus and two words ending in -osus

Full textThe study is divided in two, parts : first part : Abraham was considered as a christian model, contested by Tertullian, but admired for his virtus by Ambrose. His life supplied arguments about circumcision and the theophany of Mambré which caused a great controversy during the first centures. Abraham was named whenever Augustine attacked the heretics and the shismatics. Second part : Augustine drew up the chronology of Abraham'life and compared it to general history. The church fathers study it to in the history of salvatic mainkind, that is to say they explained his faith which showed itself on several occasion throughout his life ; particularly when he was about to sacrifice his son, Isaac, and when he accepted god's promises. The fathers spoke of his faith in Christ of whom he was the prophet. Isaac himself foreshdwed Christ and Sara foreshadowed the Church

Full textFor a long time, Romans and Carthaginians lived side by side, and especially, in mutual conflict. The conflicting relationships that had been knitted, in the Mediterranean, between these two outstandingly powerful nations, this dense network with shady alliances, oppositions and hostilities, shaped the image of the Punics. We will endeavour to make out the way the Romans perceived the Carthaginians as it is not possible to know how the Carthaginians regarded themselves: The latter attempt is doomed to failure regarding the lack of Punic literary sources. It is mainly the Carthaginian religion that had marked the Romains: these people were considered as thoroughly irreligious. They were, on the whole, negatively pointed at. In fact, the Punic wars were, for long time, presented as the victory of civilization over barbarity since the only sources on the matter were Roman. Regarding the Carthaginians’ religion, the Romans, and the Greeks ever before them, had conceived it in a rather negative way

Full textThis study is made up of two parts, aiming to combine two approaches often dissociated within modern historiography : a narrative and a historical one. The version of history handed down by tradition about the Early Republic is structured around the struggle of the orders and more specifically around three bones of contention : the issue of debts , the agrarian laws and the sharing of the consular power. These three temes have been selected as the approach paths in both parts of this study. The research carried out in this way has led to a better understanding of how tradition was elaborated from a narrative point of view : it first confirms taht the concordia-discordia concepts are the basis of the whole construction of the narrative, then demonstrates the existence of a set of four master patterns for staging one of the four possible types of social struggle (traditional or inverted patricio-plebeian struggle, patricio-patrician or plebeio-plebeian struggle) : such variation can be explained by the fact that many historical elements available to the narrator did not fit the traditional theme of the struggle of the orders. Secondly, our research shows that these narrative tools were used to reinterpret a history that was not that of Rome alone, but of the Latin League as a whole : with the key to interpretation previously identified, but also thanks to many contradictions pervading the narrative, it is possible to trace the stages of formation of the federal army and institutions, but also the various means used by Rome to gradually get hold of the Latin League
Soussan, Anne-Claire. "La figure d'Athamas dans la mythologie gréco-latine." Paris 10, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2006PA100069.
Full textAthamas, a king who murdered his children, was well-known inancient times (20 tragedies deal with his story), but his myth has never been thoroughlyresearched. This may be due to the poor state of preservation of sources or to its two-foldlegend, split as it is between the sacrifice of Phrixus and Helle, ie the first act in the quest ofthe Golden Fleece, and the murder of Learchus and Melicertes, as part of the taie ofDionysus' childhood. These two taies of infanticide have parallel narratives yet differ in theirhistories, themes and structures. The first contrasta several sacrificial rituals, which help torestore the natural and religious orders unsettled by Athamas' sacrilege ; it throws light on theargonautic legend. The second is an entanglement of different kinds of stories includingstepmother taies, ritual expulsion of female murderers, the misfortunes of the house ofCadmos, drowned heroines, and syro-phoenician influences. In both cases, Athamas is sentout to wander beyond the borders of the city. He gave his narre to the Athamanes, a tribe ofnomadic shepherds : his myths reaffirm this identity. Such tropes as infanticide or destructiewomen, common to both myths, play in each a different part but give to both renewedcoherence
Blandenet, Maëlys. "Rusticus Romanus : recherches sur les représentations du paysan dans la littérature latine républicaine." Thesis, Paris 4, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA040063.
Full textBased on the study of literature, this work deals with the representations of the countrymen and peasants in the mentalities of Romans in the Republican era. In all the Latin books from Plautus to Virgil, the countrymen are depicted trough multiple and contradictory images, in which they are made out to be either ridiculous uncouth people or model, ideal citizens. We show that, in spite of such a diversity, these representations reveal a coherent global vision of the peasantry which is linked to different conceptions of Roman identity. A preliminary study of the lexicography encompassing the various denominations of the countryside inhabitants and a historiographical focus underline the essential place that the rural still had in the social, economic and political life of the Vrbs in the last two centuries of the Republic. It then comes out that the stereotype of the uncouth man, which could be analysed in terms of “markers”, is in the Nea a real theatrical type. These type influences other texts, in which it is used for the invective, sometimes mixed to a metatextual speech. Indeed, even if the ridiculous rusticus is a counter-model of behaviour, he is paradoxically associated to a debatable Roman identity, which also comes into play in the agronomists’ speeches praising rurality. The bonus agricola stereotype embodying a rural mos maiorum, points out to collective representations and to an axiological valorisation of the agricultural activity – unlike physical work or breeding – as much as to personal ideological stances favouring rusticitas

Full textEven, the world of women seems to be very complex and subtle. In the roman antiquity, that complexity and those subtleties were in existence and were given different names to refer to what we consider to be the woman today. She was defined according to her family or social status, her age or even according to other criteria. Femina, puella, vxor refer to the "woman" relegated to the weaker sex, but each of these words has something to do with the specific peculiarity of the person it's dealing with. It's not easy to understand the various aspects of the image of the woman through literary texts in which the authors themselves an different as for their birth, social status, relationship, and their respective literary genres. In spite of all these differences there is same homogeneity in all speeches delivered by men of letters b. C. From this, a non-uniform stereotype is prevailing, whichsome striking aspects, this doctoral dissertation strives to describe owing to literary texts
Lenoir, Rebecca. "Figures féminines dans l'œuvre latine de Pétrarque." Toulouse 2, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008TOU20048.
Full textPetrarch is at the same moment the hostile tendency to the idealized feminism, the exaltation of the woman of the courteous love, the profane passion or the feminine sacrifice, the most carnal or the most sacred beauty, in summary, the totality of one “cantar che nell'anima si sente", of one song which perceives itself in souls. The feminine figures of the Latin work reveal us fundamental aspects of Petrarch, in these "diverse existential, artistic and civil militiae" which form his writer's life. We shall first examine the place of the women in the 14th century and the echoes which left us Petrarch of it: how live the women? What are their privileges, their duties, their happiness and their misfortunes? How do they reach the knowledge and a kind of recognition? But the weaker sex can’t be expressed with whatever terms. It requires precise words and categories; it makes us discover a kind of innovation when writes about women. And we find a similar originality when he takes feminine "examples" to his predecessors or contemporaries. Griselda, Melanie or Marie-Madeleine, the Sibyls or the pagan goddesses also say the links of the women with the supernatural, who take sometimes surprising aspects in the Latin work. The everyday life of the men and the women, the big examples of past, the sacred: the project of the writer is vast and approaches all the subjects. All these facets constitute the human history, opening perspectives at the same moment on the connections of the author with the scholasticism of his time and on the innovations which he defended in poetry. They say as well what the human epic is for Petrarch, from the previous history of the world created by God to the limits of this 14th century to which the author denies any kind of continuity with more glorious times, as those of the Ancient Rome

Full textAfter studying several hundred literary excerpts, one comes to the conclusion that the latin authors have little use for objectivity when describing settlements. Numerous subjective criteria are used in the choice of words to describe a site. Thus it is possible to find throughout the literature a confirmation of the specifically roman nature of the vici and the pagi, this becomes even more evident upon careful examination of the inscriptions

Full textThe renewal of sub-Saharan French-speaking writings in the 1980s results in a remarkable overtaking of the geographical, linguistic, cultural and identical traditional borders. So opening to the universal letters, many African writers turn to the Latin American universe which fascinates them for its space, topics, aesthetics, imaginary. It is this Latin American orientation of the African novel, the implementation of a relationship in the modes of expression and the representation of reality, that we call imaginary phratry. A phenomenon with multiple issues, the analysis of the imaginary phratry can reveal how, inspired by a common history and culture, the African and Latin American universe are literally brought closer in a fraternal posture reflecting some transatlantic solidarity

Full textBy its difference and its similarity, the man with the dark skin appeals to the elders who, from the Greek scientists, wanted to find geographical and climatic reasons, that is to say “scientific reasons”, to his otherness. It is the ancient Roman world that was chosen as the framework of this research. A corpus of literary, historical and philosophical Latin texts is used in a wide chronological range (from the 2nd century BC to the 5th century AD), however, in comparison with the Greek referents. The work is based on a lexicological approach, with the study of the Latin words of color and their different connotations, to investigate the interactions between evocation of skin color 'other' and social, philosophical, religious of the ancient Roman world. What are the dark-skinned men with whom the Romans came in contact, who came to the city, and what place they held, restricted between what limits and what functions, with what impact on their new environment - and on themselves. If necessary, the iconographic documentation is also requested. The field of patristic literature is explored, in which the dark-skinned man occupies a certain place, and we try to characterize the symbolic dimension that he acquires in the early Christian writers. The contributions of the foregoing experts (Fr. M Snowden Jr., L. S Senghor) are critically taken into account, taking into account the difficulty experienced by moderns in abstracting from their own cultural, conceptual and intellectual study these realities of contact between people with different skin color in the Roman world of antiquity

Full textMy research focuses on the use of the notion of res publica by Christian Latin authors during late antiquity. It is indeed a question of studying how these authors grasp (or not) this central notion of Roman political discourse in a period marked by the political and religious changes that the Roman Empire underwent during this period (late 2nd - 5th century AD). This work starts from the hypothesis of a progressive appropriation of the notion by these authors, from the limited use made of it by Tertullian to Augustine's City of God, which can be considered to a certain extent as a rewriting of the Ciceronian De re publica. This will allow us to analyse the structuring of a Christian discourse on a specifically political object such as the notion under study

Are defined the formulas in the public worship (sacrifice, votum, supplicationes, hymns) and in the private or domestic worship (interjections, daily prayers, genius, prayers form birth to death). Then are considered the problem of the Saturnian verse and its religion with the Latin carmen (accent, prosody), the tradition of the oracles (sibylline oracles) etrusco-italic tradition (carmina marciana, tarquitius priscus, vegoia, haruspices). Philological studies are devoted to the great corpus of prayers preserved in latin literature: bronze tables of iguvium, ritual of devotio and of evocatio, prayers from Cato's De Agricultura, special studies are dedicated to the colleges of fetials, augurs, salians and arvals brothers

Full textThe novels and testimonies studied in this thesis were all produced or created as a response to a shared experience of terror and to a common experience, from the onesuffered in the postocolonial era to the specific experience of thegenocides of the XXth century. Our reading put them into dialogue because they collectively indicate the coming of an extreme violence and of its representation. We have identified the emergence of a literary field and evaluated its formal coherence. Collective Traumas and The Writing of the Unspeakable : Novels of Becoming Human Again (Francophone Africa, Latin America, Caribbean) is a comparatist analysis of the literatures of the South related to the triangular slave trade. We have then confronted this corpus to the writings of genocides reenvisioned through the Holocaust. Adopting postcolonial, sociological, psychoanalytical, and literary theoretical frameworks, we have envisioned the conditions of possibility and invariability of a literature of the After representing crimes against humanity from torture to genocide

Full textWith a set of texts belonging to Latin literature from Varron to Augustine's generation, this work aims to show how the word chaos and the concept of chaos are understood by the writers through the ages. This work is based on a lexical and semantic survey with a care of genres and periods in which chaos appears. Both factors are able to underline the way the word is used and its specificity compared to the Greek legacy, while the definition of the themes and their interaction around chaos prove the semantic coherence of the word. Belonging to mythical and poetical thoughts, chaos influences the question of the origins as for creation and matter and that of the becoming of the universe ; it determines a specific representation of pagan and Christian hell, in its relation with the world of alive by the means of the magic and the sacred. Chaos thus defines an eschatologic vision linked with moral standards, which are embodied by the notions of pietas, humilitas, uirtus and fides

The conclusions of a field journey carried out in argentina complete this study. The second part is dedicated to historicity of life stories and outstands the different ways people phocus history: the speech of dominated people not only can question the official history, but it can also be a valuable contribution to the knowledge of some historical process (nicaragua 1974-1979). In the third part, the analysis of indian's life stories points out some pecularities of their culture, mainly the ethno-resistance process (guatemala). In a sociological point of view, the word of women reveals their evolution and the growing importance of their social and politic roles. The life story is an instrument to acquire knowledge about the "people of silence" and the societies they belong to

In the second part, we tackle the place of the dolphin in mythology and religion, how it is linked to Neptune, Apollo, Bacchus and Venus and also to the poet Arion, whose legend was very well-known in the Roman world. Finally, the third part deals with the symbolic, moral, aesthetic and poetic role of the dolphin, which represents speed, agility and supremacy and further carries moral values such as courage, providing a literary motif favoured by some poets

Using late-antiquity commentaries (Servius, Fulgentius), scholia about classical authors, and medieval works (Remigius of Auxerre), the treatise offers, in a constructed form illustrated by numerous citations, a succession of studies about various gods and heroes of classical mythology. It proposes historical, physical and moral explanations that can justify, in the Christians' eyes, the reading of Latin works, especially poetry

Full textThis work seeks to define the posthumous image of the great men of the Roman Republic in the Latin literature of the Julio-Claudian time, and tries to determine the impact on it of the political change which results from the victory of Octavius at Actium. It is initially a question of counting the appearances of the national heroes, then to classify them according to the treatment that the writers of the beginning of the Empire reserved to them, in order to answer the following question : does the retrospective glance that the Latin authors relate to the national figures of republican Rome reveal an approval, resigned or enthusiastic, of the new imperial government, or on the contrary a political criticism of the Principate, more or less marked ? Except the judgements stereotyped and deprived of political reference, the portrait of the illustrious republican men, treated on the mode of the praise or the blame, varies according to the literary tendencies, the philosophical currents, the political moments and the relationship which emperors and writers maintained

Full textThrough the collation and classification of the accounts of Hermogenes' doctrine (Hermogenes was a heretical christian who lived at the end of the second century), we are entitled to apprehend the originality of a thinking which was essentially concerned with the creation of the world and the essence of the matter, with evil, with the human soul, and with Jesus Christ's ascension and resurrection. At the basis of each of these topics there is a questioning about the status of material reality. It was essentially through his refusal of an ex nihilo creation as well as his resorting to dualism that Hermogenes stood at the core of the debates during the first centuries of the Christian era. When replaced into this context Hermogenes may be considered as a platonic christian, but also as a gnosticising one. And this is all the more obvious when one bears in mind his belies in a material origin of the soul, in a disorderly matter, lurking below the cosmos, and disturbing the order, and in the coming of a savour who, as he did not take part in the creation of the universe, has come to save us from a world steeped in the matter. The present analysis of Tertullian's tratise, which deals with the question of the creation of the world, is a good way to go further into the controversies of this time. Based on a new critical edition and on a french translation of the treatise, this study offers its readers a philological, philosophical and historical commentary. It is also the opportunity to make an attempt at synthesizing the theology of the creation which is at work in the writings of Tertullian, who was one of the first thinkers to develop the dogma of an ex nihilo creation

Full textThe study deals with the evolution of the Roman prayer, as literary sources allow us to perceive it, since its traditional expression to the isiac and mystic orison. The first part analyses the Roman traditional prayer as regards its structure and expounds first how important the morphological and semantic elements of the invocation stand, then the function and formulation of the precatory request and argument. The prayer dealing with moral matter and the personal prayer in Rome are finally treated. The second part analyses the isiac prayer in the Latin field, emphasing the book XI of Apuleius' Metamorphoses. Poetic extracts from Ovid's, Tibullus' and Claudian's back up the comments relating to the two prayers and Isis' speech which come from the Metamorphoses. The formulated remarks mainly aim at the possibility of distinguishing the exotic pattern prayer which addresses Isis from the initiate's prayer. The third part puts forward parallels between the former studied sources and Greek sources as well as Latin epigraphic texts. Prayers coming from the Ephesiacs of Xenophon of Ephesus and aretalogies lay out themes and eulogistical means which are close to the structure and the ways of expression of the Roman prayer, and more specifically of the mystic prayer. Latin epigraphic inscriptions show how dedicatees, whether they are intiates or not, appropriated caracteristic elements of the isiac cult. The conclusion of the study deals with an interpretation of the mystic prayer from the Metamorphoses as an implicit aretalogy. In conclusion, it seems that the Roman devotee does know, apart from traditional expression, a personal relationship with the gods he prays. He can therefore move towards mystic prayer and adapt the reasoning to new ways of thinking and to a new ritual expression

Full textThis doctoral thesis is devoted to the investigation of the philosophical, religious, and formal aspects of a motif which appears in three major works of Latin literature : that of final revelation. The last book of Cicero’s De republica with its “Dream of Scipio”, the last book of Ovid’s Metamorphoses with its discourse of Pythagoras, and the last book of Apuleius’ Metamorphoses with its unveiling of Isis, all share, indeed, the specificity of representing a revelatory experience. The aim of this research is then : on the one hand, to study the way Cicero, Ovid and Apuleius dream up a pattern of revelation on the basis of philosophical and religious material that we shall first replace in each case in its historical context and in the frame of the respective literary output and pervasive themes of thinking of our three writers ; on the other hand, to determine the effects given off by the setting of these revelations at the place that traditionally focuses meaning, the ending of the work : what kind of dialogue is set up between these three revelations and the preceding structure ? to what extent do those final revelations in the texts function at the same time as final revelations of the texts themselves, on which they cast retrospective lighting ? and what worldview, what conception of the search for truth does this dynamics convey in the three cases ? This investigation will be preceded by a preliminary chapter where we shall establish the conceptual tools required for the study of this motif and analyze its Greek antecedents, i.e. the deus ex machina in tragedy and the final eschatological myth in Plato

Full textBased on the analysis of four novels - vargas llosa's la guerra del fin del mundo; garcia marquez' el otono del patriarca; roa bastos' yo e1 supremo and otero silva's lope de aguirre principe de la libertad - these studies show how irony in latin-american historical novel transforms myth in collective imaginary into historical self-consciousness. Two groups of novels: the first one; using utopic vision against the myth of absolute power; on the other hand, novels illustrating collective mentality. Irony operates on various levels: 1. Ironic position of the actors re- garding the way latin-american history has taken; at the same time; irony is employed by the narrator in order to review the principles on which revolutionary action has been based on. 2. The figure of the writer himself and the effects fiction is sup- posed to obtain in society furnish additionnal matter to ironical reflection. 3. The opening of the narrative structure (the adaptation of dramatic form turns past into present) confronts the reader with the difficulty to sentence upon historical acts

Full textThis study aims to reconstruct the origins of a trend in Latin literature usually called “expressionism”, engaging in the analysis of the works of Laevius and Matius, two minor poets of the late Republic, whose works have survived only in fragmentary form. The ancient sources identify Laevius as the author of the Erotopaegnia, a collection of lyric love poems composed in various metres. The term paegnia, featuring in the title, most probably evokes the Παίγνια of Philitas of Cos, a collection of short light poems dating back to the early 3rd century BCE. Matius, on the other hand, is considered among the first Latin poets to translate the Iliad in hexameters, whereas he has also composed mimiambs in the manner of the Alexandrian poet Herodas. More generally, our knowledge of Latin poetry from the late second and the early first centuries BCE remains limited, primarily due to the almost entire loss of the poetic texts written in this period. Indeed, the only literary evidence comes from small poetic fragments preserved by imperial scholars, mainly by critics, lexicographers, commentators and grammarians. This study proposes a new edition and a French translation of the surviving fragments of Laevius and Cn. Matius, along with a metrical, linguistic, and interpretative commentary. Special attention is given to the stylistic features of their poetry, to demonstrate that their verses reflect a moment of transition and deliberate experimentalism in Latin literature. Both Laevius and Matius exhibit a common interest in peculiar linguistic forms, such as archaisms, neologisms, hapax legomena and original compounds, which they combine in the most expressive and surprising way. While they draw inspiration from well-known mythological themes, they reinterpret these narratives from a different perspective, focusing, as the Alexandrian poets before them, on the un-heroic and unconventional aspects of these stories. Moreover, Laevius and Matius are among the first Latin poets who explored lyric and emotional themes. Although they foreshadow the poetry of Catullus and the other neoterics, they don't entirely identify with them.The final chapter of the present thesis sheds light on the different ways of transmission of Laevius' and Matius' fragments, exploring the grammatical, lexicographical and antiquarian contexts in which their verses were cited. This investigation is particularly interesting because it contributes to the solution of various editorial problems and helps us understand how poetic collections circulated in late Antiquity

Full textFrench literary writings on latin america of the first half of the twentieth century constitutes a cosmopolitan experience. This experience fashions the very notion of cosmopoltanism bringing to it a polysemy which in turn reorients and redefines it, making one of the primary conditions for literary and artistic modernity. The first part of this work deals with the separation of the writers from their land of birth, serving as a prelude to migratory ethics established by latin america. America, which was criss-crossed by writers -both temporally and spatially- forged the genesis of cosmopolitanism be this a quest for mythical and mental aspects of otherness or the product of anamnesis that attempts to seize a plural humanity. In "the eagle and the lion" surrealists meet marxists and cosmopolitanism is transformed into intrnationalism on latin american ground. Peret is a militant in brasil, trotsky and breton write the coyoacan manifesto, while internationalism is embodied even more by desnos' work through a great solidarity of peoples. "hermeneutic america", divided in three parts examines the network of signs which it has returned to europe and constituted in the form of a cosmopolitan legacy. Latin america as a land of exile, forges the rejection of the enclosure that defines fassism. Describing latin america reveals a transgression

Full textThis study of the linguistic differenciation of the Plautine characters is based on statistical and literary analysis of linguistic devices per character types. These are lexical features : terms of abuse, vocabulary of drunkeness, Greek words, new words, word coinage, word play ; grammatical features : interjections, oaths, forms of address, diminutives, polite modifiers ; stylistic features : hyperboles, understatements, oxymorons, metaphors and similes, sound and phrasing figures, reduplication ; metric features : diuerbium, recitative, cantica mutatis modis, iambic octonarii, bacchiac, anapaestic, cretic meters. The statistical results are displayed in an analytical way in a first part, whose literary significance is determined in the second part : it provides the shades of meaning specific to each feature and to their contextual use, both within the scope of the Plautine comedy, and in that of the Greek literary tradition : epic poems, lyric poetry, drama -tragedy and comedy
Thomas, Jean-François. "Gloria et Laus, étude sémantique." Paris 4, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA040207.
Full textThe subject is the analysis of the semantics of the words gloria and laus. Both contain a rich polysemy and keep in touch concerning the synonymy. The way of doing is the componential analysis but we also take in account the "referents" of the words. It seems that gloria finds its unity in the meaning of brightness; therefore we can draw an etymological parallel with the root *gel- "to shine". It is more difficult to reconstitute the coherence and the story of laus. The main difference bears upon the meaning of "glory": the notoriety intrudes on the others attention {gloria) or it is given by the collective sense [laus)
Pierre, Christine. "L'imaginaire de la montagne dans le monde antique." Perpignan, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PERP1094.
Full textAntique world is confronted with a territory which it does not master: the mountain. By its nature, this anxiogenic place belongs to the divine world and gives off supernatural energies. The man who climbs his slopes is confronted with this essential savagery for which the created world tries to regulate in plain. This repulsion which generates this locus tremendum arouses paradoxically an attractiveness maintained by the myths and legendary narratives. By its axial shape, the mountain connects the different worlds, from the infernal world to the celestial space. As for its layering, it is lived as an initiatory course. The presence of an interzone facilitates this traffic of the mortal and the immortal. During the meetings, marked with the nostalgia for a lost gold age, games of power are going to bind and to untying the fates. So this territory so rejected becomes an object of greed and sees itself instrumented little by little by the poets and mythographes. Become an archetype, the mountain is going to stand out as a space of the origins of Rome

Full textThe aim of the author is to reconstitute the Roman perception of horror, defined as an extreme fear and an horrible phenomenon ; the study is carried on latin epic and history, and compares them with tragedy, so as to point out the theme originality in two genres whom it is a priori excluded from. By observing the terms expressing fear, it establishes the semantics of horror as emotion ; the imaginary of horror is then extracted ; it is organised on themes such as blackness, greatness and ugliness, divided into pejorative and laudable vision (horror ad odium/ ad uenerationem), and is a matter for profane or sacred events. Horror deals with aesthetic problems, especially when epic poets and historians develop scenes of violence : so as to express the excessive dimension of horrible violences, they use amplification processes, emphasis, euidentia and tumor, troubling though generic rules. Horror also disturbs readers reception : delectatio joins vulgar pleasure for sensational facts with intellectual pleasure, the reader being allowed to recognize traditional problems of mimèsis and aemulatio in the treatment of horror imagery ; utilitas is the utility of doubt, catching horror ad uenerationem out, and dignifying horror ad odium. In epic and historiography, it appears that two themes structure the Roman vision of horror : hell and civil wars

Full textThe corpus of ‘elegiac comedies’, or 12th and 13th-century ‘Latin comedies’, was perceived as an anthology of some curious texts, the literary tradition of which was, nevertheless, clearly defined. Indeed, the notion of 'elegiac comedy’ designates the theatrical tradition as a point of reference, which is essential for the formation of' the ‘genre’. The objective of this thesis is to deconstruct the concept of ‘elegiac comedy’ and to describe the 12th-century texts of the corpus in exact accordance with their historicity. The word ‘comic’ refers here to comoedia as a historical phenomenon and not to some categories of anthropological, philosophical or psychological nature; the ‘laughter’ is not but one of the possible answers. The revision of the sources fundamental for the formation of medieval knowledge of ancient comedy as well as the interpretation of 12th- and 13th-century poetriae help to shed light on the meaning of the term comoedia employed both by the authors of comoediae from the Loire Valley and by their readers. The study of the relations of the elegiac comedies with the tradition of ancient comedy involves, moreover, the examination of their paratexts and co-texts, the body of which is determined by the preserved manuscripts. Thus, the analysis of the historical, ideological and theoretical context, as well as the study of manuscripts of the elegiac comedies, define these compositions as the texts that form and embody the rhetorical and ethical rules exhibited in the poetriae

Full textThis thesis intends to determine the ideological stakes of the representations of the people, of the dictator and of authority in Latin American dictator novels. After clearing up the misunderstandings that can arise from a misreading of the terms of this research and identifying the social phenomenon accounted for (Part One, People, dictator, authority: definitions of the stakes), we will try our best to understand which writing process enables dictator novels to account for this phenomenon and denounce it. We will analyse the representations of the phenomenon of tyranny under two angles : that of the mechanism of suggestion ( Part two, The idol with feet of clay. The debunking of high-handed authority and the setting forth of the pathology of peoples being tyrannized over) and that of the conditions of emancipation (Part three, From the liberation of the people to that of the reader: a therapy of watchfulness?)

Full textThis comparative study will present and define a literary movement known as Magic Realism - situating it firsi with respect to other movements such as the fantastic, the marvelous, surrealism and postmodernism. An overview of its development during the 20th century in Europe, in Latin America and, finally in Canada, will allow us to bring out the various meanings that were attributed to the locution by the writers and critiques at various times and in different countries. We will show that its decline in Europe corresponded to its expansion on the New Continent where it represented, for the writers, more than a reaction against realism (mimesis), but the means to re-imagine and re-invent their word by an unusual use of the techniques of the fantastic rendered by a systematic manipulation of the dimensions of time and space and of the narrative voice in the narrative. Magic realism conveys the complete fusion of the real and the imaginary
Cortés, María Lourdes. "Lecture cinématographique de la narration latinoaméricaine." Paris 3, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1998PA030003.
Full textOur study looks at the problem of the litterary adaptation of film making, in particular, latin-american prose after the 60's "boom" with authors such as jorge luis borges, gabriel garcia marquez, jose donoso, carlos fuentes and manuel puig. We understand "adaptation" as a reading/writing of a litterary text; a particular interpretation from a main text, produced by historical, economical, social, cinematographical factors, based on the "encyclopedia" of its director; and which appears as a new product : film adaptation. The thesis is divided in three sections. The first include the study of the "paratexte" : the frame of the text. In the second part we analyse the main elements which are the pilars of the story : caracters, places, time and narration. In the third part we have analysed the main elements which constitute the film text : the soundtrack and the filmtrack. Finally, the last chapter concerns the study of certain caracters of the contemporary text, which seem to resist all cinematographic transposition. We have noticed that the analysed texts belong to a tradition which has caracteristics of breaking up with the representations which produces models of realism. On the other hand, the film adaptations do not correspond at this particular type of writing; they tend to follow the tradition of the 19th century novel, which offers a story as a base and which creates realism by trying to act as a mirror reflecting the world. The thesis demonstrates the division between the style of writing of the authors of the "boom" and the one of their adaptations, as well as the type of the readers/viewers created by the texts, both litterary and cinematographical, and the change of phase of their reception

Full textThis thesis aims to study the French language that emerged from Hispano-American migrant literature from 1960 to the present. As a language of communication and culture, French is also a language of creation beyond its linguistic boundaries. It has thus become the language of adoption for European writers besides French-speaking countries, as was the case for the Irishman Samuel Beckett and the Romanian Emil Cioran. Crucially however, the fact that some Spanish-American writers have also chosen French for their literary work is less well known. This study sheds light on this phenomenon from the 1960s onwards considering two lines of research. Firstly, we build on the history of representations of French literature and culture in Latin America to enrich it with contemporary contributions through a corpus of recent authors: the Argentinians Silvia Baron Supervielle, Hector Bianciotti, the Cuban Eduardo Manet and the Chilean Luis Mizón. Secondly, we propose a cross-analysis of these Spanish-American writers who, going beyond being settled in France, have used French language in a poetic approach. These two axes are necessary to better understand this type of migrant literature, which focuses on the experience of exile and the process of deterritorialization and reterritorialization. At the central point of this process is the emergence of an in-between space in which both to rethink and negotiate the relationship between territory and identity due to displacement have realigned borders. This process enabled the authors to dissociate language from identity in order to make the transition to French, which differs from assimilating the language and culture of the host country or denying their own culture, let alone abandoning their mother tongue. French becomes the material for creating a new language that cannot be assigned to a specific literary field. The only space to which this language belongs is a virgin space born between French and Spanish
