Abstract:
For centuries we have taken for granted Aristotle's assertion that fiction must encourage emotional identification by representing life realistically. With the development of a more pluralistic society, Postmodernist writiers have come to question that assumption. Having repudiated our ancestor's notions of identity, these writers create stories whose sole purpose is to comment on other stories. However, as some feminist critics have shown us, we must each have an identity in order to have the collaborative society that is the Postmodernist's goal. Therefore, the notion that a story must make

Abstract:
Plato criticizes poetry in several of his dialogues, beginning with Apology, his first work, and ending with Laws, his last. In these dialogues, his criticism of poetry can be divided into two streams: poetry is criticized for either being divinely inspired, or because it is mimetic or imitative of reality. However, of the dialogues which criticize poetry in these ways, it is not until Laws that Plato mentions both inspiration and mimesis together, and then it is only in a few sentences. Furthermore, nowhere in the dialogues does Plato discuss their relationship. This situation has a parallel

Abstract:
Violence and Dystopia is a critical examination of imitative desire, scapegoating and sacrifice in selected contemporary Western dystopian narratives through the lens of René Girard’s mimetic theory. The first chapter offers an overview of the history of Western utopia/dystopia with a special emphasis on the problem of conflictive mimesis and scapegoating violence, and a critical introduction to Girard’s theory. The second chapter is devoted to J.G. Ballard’s seminal novel Crash (1973). It is argued that the car crash functions as a metaphor for conflictive mimetic desire and leads to a quasi-

Abstract:
The photograph is of interest to the writer because it is uniquely a product both of the realm of objective, physical reality and of the realm of artifice. Its ambiguous status as the physical emanation of a past referent endows it with an uneasy authority. It appears to offer assurances of identity and clarity; at the same time, it undermines the attempt to control experience by demonstrating that to freeze time and space is to render them obsolete. Thus the photograph can be seen as a metaphor for the life-giving and death-dealing enterprise of writing fictions. Moreover, because the photogr

This paper considers the embodied ethics of Geoffrey Hills poetic practice. Hill stages his engagement with poetry through the idioms, images, tropes, and diction of the literary tradition. Through this pragmatic rehearsal of the language of the dead, Hills poetry projects the tradition into the present. Hill resists the ethical entrapments of appropriative poetry through his insistence upon the brute physicality of atrocity and through a rigorous (for both poet and reader) formal difficulty. Hills practice refuses to console after the models of Peter Sacks, Jahan Ramazani, or John Vickery. In

Hindu religious culture has a rich and long-standing performance tradition containing many genres and regional types that contribute significantly to an understanding of the living vitality of the religion.

In 1972, with the publication of Violence and the Sacred, René Girard makes the stunning assertion that violence is the foundation of culture. Humanity’s innate urges for competition and rivalry entrap us in cycles of violence, which left alone would find no resolution. Girard calls the cause of this rivalry “mimetic desire”, and the only way out of this deeply embedded vengeance is to create a scapegoat to take the blame, reconciling the conflicting parties. Girard asserts that the biblical texts uniquely reveal the mechanisms of mimetic rivalry and scapegoating, and even demystify sacrificia

Hoffmann’s fiction, in turn, proves itself repeatedly to contain the traces of a proto-realist tendency, through its playful interventions into the staging of narrative creation.

The paper examines Othello as metapoetry. Throughout the play, key points of comparison between Iago and Shakespeare's methodologies for employing allegory, symbolism, and mimetic plot and character construction shed light upon Shakespeare's self-reflexive use of poetry as an art of imitation. More specifically, the contrast between Shakespeare and Iago's poetry delineates between dynamic and reductive uses of allegory, emphasizes an Aristotelian model of mimesis that makes reason integral to plot and character formation, and underscores an ethical function to poetry generally.

Ce travail présente la manière dont William Faulkner réfléchit la fonction identitaire de la narration dans plusieurs de ses romans : The Sound and the Fury, As I lay Dying, Light in August, Absalom, Absalom! et Requiem for a Nun. L’appartenance des personnages du corpus au Sud des États-Unis exacerbe leur faille constitutive, qu’ils cherchent alors à compenser par la médiation du récit. Cette thèse étudie, à travers le prisme de la théorie de la mimèsis de Paul Ricœur, comment ces personnages configurent leur temps vécu et se projettent mimétiquement dans leur récit afin de procéder à une her

Para tanto, parte-se da aproximação do direito à literatura, investigando-se, mais precisamente, as relações que se estabelecem entre a tragédia grega e o direito. Nessa senda, investiga-se o panorama geral em que se inserem os estudos que aproximam o direito da literatura e vice-versa, e visita-se a poética aristotélica para,

Abstract:
Busca compreender o conto El Otro, de Jorge Luis Borges. Para tanto, efetua sua análise formal; acrescida pelo exame de um corpus secundário. Uma vez que a narrativa apresenta dois personagens autobiográficos, sendo o jovem similar e estranho à produção deste autor, é necessário comparar tal personagem à obra borgeana de juventude, no tocante ao realismo, engajamento, biografismo e ultraísmo. Verifica que o Borges de 1918 a 1920 não exibe tais concepções literárias, exceto pelo ultraísmo. Na segunda etapa juvenil, entre 1921-1928, encontra ultraísmo, biografismo e alguns pontos de contato, com

Abstract:
This dissertation comprises the first study of the poetry of the Portuguese humanist Diogo de Teive (1513-14 – c. 1569). It examines and presents a scholarly edition of the Epithalamium which Teive composed on the occasion of the marriage of Princess Maria of Portugal to Alessandro Farnese in 1565. It also critically explores the work in which the poem was published, the Epodon libri tres (Lisbon, 1565). Because both this and the Epithalamium bring together different strands of Teive’s literary work, Chapter One analyses the development of his literary career, linking it to the ideological and

Abstract:
El propòsit d'aquesta tesi és enjudiciar el paper de la no verbalitat en un context literari especial, partint de l'aparent paradoxa que el text l'integren paraules, que no obstant això han de donar compte de fets d'índole no verbal la significació dels quals es transfon en tota classe d'experiències sensorials. S'examina la participació dels elements no verbals en la construcció d'un relat que aspira a un grau màxim de mimesi, la major aproximació possible al fenomen material, reproduint amb versemblança tant les interaccions comunicatives entre els personatges com els seus contextos, i qu
