Abstract:

Prompted by the gaps in archival evidence for writing histories of minoritized lives, scholars, archivists, and artists have increasingly adopted speculative archival methods. Shaped by queer temporalities, Black feminist epistemologies, and decolonial approaches, speculative approaches use techniques from narrative fiction to envision and reconstruct the past while acknowledging the limitations of documentary evidence. This essay seeks to expand the potential of fictional character for writing minoritized historical subjects by reexamining the institutionalization of archives in the nineteent

Abstract:

Both in his fiction and in his non-fiction, Stephen King has reflected in more depth on authorship than most of his peers. Critically negotiating Roland Barthes’s declaration of the death of the Author (1967), King ‘resurrects’ the author persona in his fiction and turns it into an ‘undead’ horror trope. This article explores how this narrative mechanism operates in four King novels: Misery, The Dark Half, Bag of Bones and Lisey’s Story. King’s development of authorship into a fictional horror trope, the analysis demonstrates, metaphorically negotiates King’s anxiety regarding his own authorsh

Abstract:

This article examines a range of fictional literature – poetry, prose, play and song produced between the seventeenth and twenty-first centuries – that represents aspects of the Thirty Years’ War, a conflict fought in Europe from 1618 to 1648. Depiction of the Thirty Years’ War in literary works is compared to that found in empirical historical evidence and historians’ analyses. It is concluded that historical fictions offer a different, but equally valid, account of the conflict to academic histories, and that by using historical fictions and empirical evidence together, a more holistic pictu

Abstract:

We begin this article with a close look at some contemporary pictures of sexual life in the Muslim world that have been painted in certain sections of the Western media, asking how and why these pictures matter. Across a range of mainstream print media from the New York Times to the Daily Mail, and across reported events from several countries, can be found pictures of ‘sexual misery’. These ‘frame’ Muslim men as tyrannical, Muslim women as downtrodden or exploited, and the wider world of Islam as culpable. Crucially, this is not the whole story.

In this specular and metaleptic kaleidoscope, the encounters between the author and the characters are particularly relevant. These encounters reveal the author’s attitude towards power and censorship, as well as his subversive methods. However, they are also related to the deep tensions of the author’s cr

Abstract:

Abstract This essay examines Stephen King’s career in relation to the evolving literary status of genre fiction. Following the financialization of the publishing industry, genre fiction became one of its most profitable forms. As a result, agents and houses sought to invest in brand-name authors who could attract a mass-market readership based on reputation alone. While this development helped turn King into one of the most successful novelists of the late twentieth century, it also provided an opportunity to engage with questions about authorial autonomy, the demands of the market, and the me

His writings, depicting the misery of contemporary man and imagining a new human species enhanced by technologies, show that neither the so-called neo-humans nor the “last man” of liberal democracies can reach happiness.

Abstract:

Le motif de la filiation sert, comme l’ont démontré les travaux de Dominique Viart, puis de Laurent Demanze, en littérature contemporaine, le plus souvent à exprimer les enjeux d’une transmission défaillante de la mémoire familiale. Sujet au coeur de multiples romans et récits contemporains au Québec, la tentative d’appropriation fictionnalisée d’un passé familial inconnu relève, chez Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette, Carole David et Judy Quinn, de ce qu’Astrid Erll appelle une « mémoire transculturelle », car c’est un passé autre qui fait irruption dans le présent des personnages. Construits autour de

Abstract:

The concept of monster or monstrosity is not new in African fiction. Monster characters exist in folklore, fantasy, and horror fiction. In many cases they are cast as villainous, unnatural, and horrific. Monsters are portrayed as conduit for supernatural communication. They are constructed to serve cultural roles of reinforcing conformity and policing boundaries. Monsters are also constructed as subversive characters whose existence is not bound by societal norms and conventions but whose boundless freedom opens up doors to possibilities of wish fulfilment. The above significantly influenced t

Abstract:

Pendant le XXe siècle, les œuvres d’art ont multiplié les références aux autres domaines artistiques jusqu’à présenter des similitudes structurelles avec des récits. Cette exploration du narratif dans l’art a débuté avec les expérimentations dadaïstes puis surréalistes qui intégraient le langage comme un élément essentiel à la production d’œuvre, tout particulièrement avec Marcel Duchamp. Bien des années plus tard, d’autres artistes ont exploité le pouvoir documentaire du texte et de l’image pour élaborer en amont l’histoire des œuvres et intégrer l’artiste comme personnage dans des mises en s

Abstract:

The name ‘Chloe’ appears four times in Horace's Odes, once in Book 1 (1.23) and three times in Book 3 (3.7, 3.9, 3.26). Whether the ‘Chloes’ represent a woman or women from Horace's real life is probably not something we could know. Furthermore, there is no obvious reason to assume that all the ‘Chloes’ are the same person. However, there is likewise no obvious reason not to read the odes in which the name ‘Chloe’ appears, as some scholars have done, as referring to the same woman, fictional or otherwise. This article argues both that ‘Chloe’ is a consistent character in the Odes and that the

Abstract:

The crisis that the world is in today has brought people together through the suffering they share. It leads to the presence of solidarity, which shows how people come hand in hand to help each other, showing that humanity exists even in difficult times. This paper seeks to analyze the portrayal of solidarity and suffering as part of the moral values of Han Kang's novel 'Human Acts,' which deals with the similar crisis that occurred in South Korea in 1980, known as the Gwangju Uprising. It applies descriptive qualitative research which concentrates directly and clearly on the aspects in the no

Abstract:

This celebration of modern Chinese literature is a tour de force, David Wang's third major summation in English. He is even more prolific in Chinese. Wang's command of the creative and critical literatures is unrivalled.Monster's subject is “the multivalence of Chinese violence across the past century”: not 1960s “structural violence” or postcolonial “epistemic violence,” but hunger, suicide, anomie, betrayal (though not assassination or incarceration), and “the violence of representation”: misery that reflects or creates monstrosity in history. Monster thus comments on “history and memory,” l
