Scott, Natalie. "Screams underwater : submerging the authorial voice : a polyphonic approach to retelling the known narrative in Berth ; Voices of the Titanic : a poetry collection by Natalie Scott." Thesis, University of Sunderland, 2015. http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/6582/.
Full textAbstract:
This PhD thesis is comprised of my poetry collection: Berth - Voices of the Titanic (Bradshaw Books, 2012) and a critical commentary which discusses the collection both in printed and performed contexts. Berth is a collection of fifty poems taking a range of forms, including dramatic monologue, and found, sound and concrete poems. It was published and performed to coincide with the centenary of the Titanic disaster on April 14th 2012. The collection encourages an audience to see and hear Titanic in a distinctive way, through the poetic voices of actual shipyard workers, passengers, crew, animals, objects, even those of the iceberg and ship herself. Though extensively researched, it is not intended to be a solely factual account of Titanic’s life and death but a voiced exploration of the what-ifs, ironies, humour and hearsay, as well as painful truths, presented from the imagined perspective of those directly and indirectly linked to the disaster. The critical commentary introduces the notion of factional poetic storytelling and, supported by Julia Kristeva’s definition of intertextuality, considers the extent to which Berth is an intertext. Drawing on both literary works and critical theory, it considers the dominant, objective, authorial voice as a way of closing a text, and contrastingly presents polyphony, with its multiple viewpoints, as a way of opening up a text, in the process of moving towards retelling a well-known story in a distinctive way. I use Plato’s concept of mimēsis to make connections between polyphony and intertextuality and my creative work is then contextualised in terms of other intertexts published as creative responses to historical events, culminating in the story of the Titanic. I show how Berth is distinctive in its way of telling. Supported by reader-response theories, I discuss the reader’s role in shaping a text and participating in the process of its reception as an open, dialogic work. Illustrated by examples from canonical poems, the commentary next defines monophony in order to draw out the characteristics of polyphony and its relationship with Bakhtin’s concepts of dialogism, addressivity, defamiliarization, collage and the carnival. Exemplified by Berth, the ensuing exploration of Bakhtinian thought shows that the concept of dialogism, which he applies exclusively to the novel, is readily applicable both to a narrative poetry collection that is novelistic but also to standalone poems. The commentary then makes connections between polyphony and performance poetry - specifically the dramatic monologue - and other open forms influenced by British and American modernist poetic techniques. I use examples from British Poetry Revival works to characterise the forms of found, sound and concrete poem. Robert Sheppard’s critical notion of the ‘saying’ and the ‘said’ (informed by Mikhail Bakhtin’s dialogism and Umberto Eco’s notion of the ‘open work’) helps me to explore how such forms influenced my own creative practice - in the printed and staged versions of Berth - and fulfilled the principal aim of the work: to use polyphonic methods in a way that contributes a voice distinctive from the existing works on the subject of the Titanic. In conclusion, I argue that polyphony is a significant device for poetry that aims to present a fresh perspective on a story which has been told many times before.

Fruoco, Jonathan. "Evolution narrative et polyphonie littéraire dans l'oeuvre de Geoffrey Chaucer." Thesis, Grenoble, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014GRENL003/document.
Full textAbstract:
Geoffrey Chaucer, grand traducteur, rhétoricien et poète courtois, fut longtemps considéré par la critique comme le père de la poésie anglaise. Or, un tel positionnement a non seulement tendance à occulter tout un pan de l'histoire de la littérature anglo-saxonne, mais également à mettre de côté les spécificités mêmes du style de Chaucer. Le but de cette étude est ainsi de démontrer que sa contribution à l'histoire de la littérature est bien plus importante qu'on ne le pensait. Car en décidant d'écrire en moyen-anglais à une époque où l'hégémonie du latin et du vieux-français était incontestée (en particulier à la cour d'Edouard III et de Richard II), Chaucer s'inscrivit dans un mouvement intellectuel visant à rendre aux vernaculaires européens le prestige nécessaire à une véritable production culturelle ayant permit l'émergence du genre romanesque. Ainsi, en assimilant successivement les caractéristiques de la poésie de Chrétien de Troyes, Guillaume de Lorris et Jean de Meun, Chaucer redonna à la poésie anglaise ses lettres de noblesse. Mais ce ne fut qu'après sa découverte de la Divina Commedia qu'il prit conscience du potentiel de la littérature : Dante lui permit, en effet, de libérer son art dialogique et d'ainsi donner à sa poésie une dimension polyphonique de premier ordre. De fait, si Chaucer ne peut être considéré comme le père de la poésie anglaise, il est en revanche le père de la prose anglaise et l'un des précurseurs de ce que Mikhaïl Bakhtine nomme le roman polyphonique<br>Geoffrey Chaucer, translator, rhetorician and courtly poet, has long been considered by the critics as the father of English poetry. However, this notion not only tends to forget a huge part of the history of Anglo-Saxon literature, but also to ignore the specificities of Chaucer's style. The purpose of this thesis is accordingly to try to demonstrate that his contribution to the history of literature is much more important than we had previously imagined. Indeed, Chaucer's decision to write in Middle-English, in a time when the hegemony of Latin and Old-French was undisputed (especially at the court of Edward III and Richard II), was consistent with an intellectual movement that was trying to give back to European vernaculars the prestige necessary to a genuine cultural production, which eventually led to the emergence of romance and of the modern novel. The assimilation of the specificities of the poetry of Chrétien de Troyes, Guillaume de Lorris and Jean de Meun thus allowed Chaucer to give back to English poetry some of its respectability. Nonetheless, it was his discovery of the Divina Commedia that made him aware of the true potential of literature: Dante thus allowed him to free the dialogism of his creations and to give his poetry a first-rate polyphonic dimension. As a result, if Chaucer cannot be thought of as the father of English poetry, he is however the father of English prose and one of the main artisans of what Mikhail Bakhtin called the polyphonic novel

Full textAbstract:
This thesis addresses the relatively narrow understanding of simple polyphony in music history. Using three examples, I provide a survey, mostly of secondary literature available in English, and offer an overview of the use of simple polyphony in three different places and time periods in Western Europe during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. More specifically, I examine the music of the Devotio Moderna in the Low Countries and Northern Germany during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the Llibre Vermell and Iberian pilgrim culture in the fourteenth century, and the laude and processional genres in Northern Italy during the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth centuries. My purpose is to bring the topic of simple polyphony—significant despite its simplicity—back to the center of the music history narrative.

Full textAbstract:
Les modes de composition et de narration de l’histoire ont été profondément bouleversés dans la première moitié du XIXe siècle français. Le récit historique doit alors répondre à de nouveaux enjeux et façonner une historiographie nouvelle qui devra conduire à l’établissement d’une discipline scientifique moderne : l’histoire. Les écrivains de cette période conçoivent par conséquent un récit historique dans lequel sont inscrites les nouvelles modalités démocratiques du rapport à la cité politique : il ne s’agit plus seulement pour l’historien d’entretenir de l’histoire, mais de faire entendre les voix de l’histoire, celles des contemporains tout autant que celles du passé, en les inscrivant dans un régime communicationnel. Autrement dit, il ne s’agit pas seulement de les faire entendre, mais aussi de procéder à un vaste système d’interactions des différentes temporalités : à l’image d’un vaste parlement, les temps communiquent et tiennent la narration pour donner à lire une histoire polyphonique dans laquelle l’instance narrative et auctoriale qui assurait autrefois le rythme et la cohérence du récit se démultiplie, et dans laquelle l’histoire se fragilise pour mieux se faire entendre. Le récit historique de la première moitié du siècle s’institue ainsi comme un vaste laboratoire dans lequel les historiens expérimentent les nouveaux modes d’expression d’une histoire démocratique<br>The history’s narrative has been deeply shaked during the first half of the nineteenth century. The historical narrative have to meet new challenges and make a new historiography to institute a modern and a scientific discipline : history. Therefore writers of this period form an historical narrative which includes new democratic procedures for the management of politics : historian have not only to talk about history, but have also to get the voices of history heard, past’s voices as well as contemporary’s. History becomes a communication. In other words, voices don’t only have to get heard : they have to interact each others through time. Like a parliament, times communicate each others and lead the narrative to make a polyphonic history, in which the narrative and auctorial instance – which, in the past, led the rhythm and the coherence of the narrative – stretch themselves. Therefore history weaks itself to become more listenable. The history’s narrative of the first half of the nineteenth century becomes thus a wide laboratory for historians to experiment new narrative devices of a democratic history

Les nouvelles du XVIe siècle sont souvent lues comme de simples passe-temps, loin derrière les livres de Rabelais. Pourtant, cette littérature labile est dotée d’une « grande variété de formes narratives qui témoignent de [s]a souplesse et de [s]a plasticité […], laboratoire des expériences romanesques à venir » (D. Souiller, La nouvelle en Europe de Boccace à Sade). Il est ainsi difficile de conférer une identité générique à ces textes. En l'absence d’arts poétiques contemporains, la critique propose des définitions discutables. Trop restrictives ou partiales, elles aboutissent à un compromis : donner des caractéristiques majeures (brièveté, moralité, bon tour, bon mot, « réalisme », etc.), sans nettement distinguer le genre de formes narratives voisines (discours bigarrés, histoires tragiques). Pourtant, une autre piste est possible : adopter le point de vue des auteurs de romans comiques pour profiter d'une pratique d'écriture nourrie des conteurs de la Renaissance et d'une réception littéraire plus proche de celle des lecteurs du XVIe siècle, soit affiner les analyses modernes pour aspirer à établir la première liste de critères génériques fiables et opératoires<br>Read short stories from XVIth french century, it’s like reading fancy stories or recreations, far away from Rabelais’books. However, this unsettled literature has a « grande variété de formes narratives qui témoignent de [s]a souplesse et de [s]a plasticité […], laboratoire des expériences romanesques à venir » (D. Souiller, La nouvelle en Europe de Boccace à Sade). It’s difficult, indeed, to give a set generic identity at these texts. Without contemporary arts of poetry, modern critics suggest debatable definitions. Too restrictive or partial, those definitions end up at a compromise : to give main characteristics (brevity, moral, good trick, good word, « realism », etc.) without make a clear distinction with close narrative forms (« discours bigarrés », « histoires tagiques »). Yet, there is another path : take the point of view of « romans comiques »’ authors in order to take advantage of a writing fed from Renaissance’s storytellers and of a reading closer with XVIth century’s readers, that is to say refine modern studies in order to draw up the first list of reliable and operating generic criteria

Touya, Aurore. "La polyphonie romanesque au XXème siècle (corpus en langues anglaise, espagnole et française)." Thesis, Paris 4, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA040251.
Full textAbstract:
Le XXème siècle voit naître un nouveau type de récit romanesque : aux États-Unis, en Amérique latine et en France sont publiés de plus en plus de romans polyphoniques, structurés par les voix des personnages qui se relaient pour raconter l’histoire qu’ils partagent. Le narrateur omniscient disparaît au profit de la multiplication des voix et de la pénétration directe des intériorités. Notre étude isole neuf de ces romans polyphoniques, retenus en raison de leur statut paradigmatique et du dialogue qu’ils tissent entre eux. Tous sont modelés par de nouvelles conceptions de l’esprit humain qui accordent une place inédite à la subjectivité, et servis par des outils narratifs expérimentaux qui soulignent la préoccupation des romanciers de trouver une adéquation entre mots, sentiments et pensées. Ils permettent des jeux qui donnent à voir la constitution d’une théorie du roman comme puzzle et comme procès, tout en s’ouvrant génériquement à d’autres textes tels le théâtre et la poésie, ce qui interroge les capacités d’appropriation du genre romanesque. Mais la forme polyphonique de ces romans correspond surtout à des enjeux d’une importance capitale pour le monde contemporain qui les voit naître : en segmentant la narration et en la répartissant entre les personnages, le roman polyphonique soulève les questions du lien entre voix et idéologie et du rapport entre discours et réalité. En donnant à entendre une multiplicité de voix, il fait coexister sur la page les vivants et les morts, dépasse les limites de la condition humaine et redéfinit la notion de vérité<br>The XXth century witnesses the appearance of a new type of novelistic narrative : in the U.S.A as well as in Latin America and in France, an increasing number of polyphonic novels are published, whose structure relies on the voices of characters who tell one after the other the story they have in common. The omniscient narrator is replaced by a multiplicity of voices and by direct penetration of consciousness. This thesis focuses on nine of these polyphonic novels, which were selected due to their paradigmatic status and because of the dialogue they build with one another. They all are inspired by new conceptions of the mind that place subjectivity at their center, and use experimental devices that underline the quest of the novelists seeking an equivalent between words, feelings and thoughts. These texts allow games that show how theories of the novel as a puzzle and as a trial are being moulded, while opening to other genres such as theatre and poetry and questioning the novel’s absorption capacity. But most of all, the polyphonic pattern appears as a crucial stake for the contemporary world that gave birth to these novels: the fragmentation of the narrative, now shared among characters, questions the link between voice and ideology and the relationship between speech and reality. The multiplicity of voices makes the living and the dead share the pages of the book and gives the novel a power that goes beyond the limits of human condition while offering a new definition of the concept of truth

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse apporte un éclairage esthétique sur un ensemble de romans polyphoniques du canon francophone contemporain. Des formes de féminisme autour du prophète de l’islam dans Loin de Médine d'Assia Djebar aux formes de l’individualisme dans un village guadeloupéen dans Traversée de la mangrove de Maryse Condé en passant par les voix multiples de la créolité dans Solibo Magnifique de Patrick Chamoiseau, ces romans sont engagés dans des stratégies littéraires novatrices. Or les études postcoloniales ont laissé dans l'ombre le travail des formes qui est pourtant le mode opératoire de la pensée littéraire. Il faut donc remédier à ces lacunes par une analyse narratologique et stylistique des techniques de représentation du discours et de la pensée. En dégageant les formes et les enjeux de la relation fascinante qui se joue entre la parole de l’autre et les voix narratives, notre thèse apporte une contribution attendue dans les études francophones autant que dans les théories narratives.Trois pensées majeures nourrissent cette recherche : d’abord le concept de contrepoint d’Edward Saïd, envisagé dans sa dimension dialogique, ensuite la vision sociale du langage chez Voloshinov/Bakhtine qui préside aux développements sur le dialogisme, enfin l’approche politique de la littérature de Jacques Rancière, qui donne un tout nouvel éclairage aux désormais traditionnels bénéfices de l’« estrangement ». C’est ainsi sans quitter la zone ténue où se rencontrent formes esthétiques et formes sociales que ce travail traverse les débats les plus actuels des études francophones<br>This dissertation casts an aesthetic light on a selection of polyphonic novels from the Francophone contemporary canon. From the forms of feminism around the prophet of islam in Far from Madina by Assia Djebar, to the multiple voices of Créolité in Solibo Magnificent by Patrick Chamoiseau, to the forms of individualism in a Guadeloupean village in Crossing the Mangrove by Maryse Condé, these novels are involved in innovative literary strategies. Nonetheless, postcolonial studies left in the shadow the work of forms that is yet the operatory mode of literary thought. To bridge this gap, we need a narratological and stylistic analysis of the techniques of representation of speech and thought. By disentangling the forms and the stakes of the fascinating relationship that is at work between the other’s speech and narrative voices, my dissertation brings a welcomed contribution to Francophone studies as well as to narrative studies.Three major thoughts foster this research: first the concept of counterpoint of Edward Said, seen in its dialogical dimension, the social approach to language in Voloshinov/Bakhtin, that presides to developments on dialogism, and the political approach to literature of Jacques Rancière, that casts a new light on now traditional benefits of “estrangement”. It is thus, without leaving the tenuous zone where esthetic forms meet social forms that my dissertation spans the most actual debates in Francophone studies

Galisson, Olivia. "Le sujet poétique au coeur de la narration dans les poemetti de Pascoli : les voix dans le discours poétique." Thesis, Paris 3, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA030127.
Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse se propose d’étudier l’énonciation poétique dans les Poemetti de Giovanni Pascoli. Dans le cadre d’une poésie narrative qui ménage une très large part au discours rapporté, multipliant ainsi les sujets de l’énonciation, le sujet poétique se constitue dans une polyphonie qui, loin d’être l’apanage du roman, interroge aussi bien les formes de narration traditionnelles que le modèle monologique lyrique. Alors que les voix qui traversent ses recueils les plus étudiés, Myricae et Canti di Castelvecchio, participent au développement d’une réflexion métalinguistique comme en témoigne le titre de l’essai fondateur de G. Contini, « Il linguaggio di Pascoli », les voix présentes dans les Poemetti attirent l’attention sur la fonction métadiscursive de la poésie. C’est en s’inscrivant dans un discours partagé et collectif que le sujet biographique et allégorique peut se constituer et échapper au sentiment d’égarement et de solitude qui le définit. Le sujet cherche alors dans la collectivité des voix familiales ou communautaires, locales ou nationales, une réponse au sentiment d’exclusion qui l’habite, en particulier dans la communauté familiale autarcique et idéale du « roman géorgique ». Parler de polyphonie ou d’une forme de dialogisme dans le cadre d’un epos ou dans celui d’une poésie lyrique pourrait paraître paradoxal. L’epos reposerait en effet sur une vision du monde commune aux personnages, au narrateur, et au lecteur. Le lyrisme se fonderait sur l’expression d’une subjectivité individuelle et intime. C’est sans compter sur la volonté de Pascoli de faire de sa voix poétique un point d’orgue entre l’individuel et le collectif. Il veut en effet s’adresser à tous, jusque dans sa poésie autobiographique. La polyphonie qui traduit le rapport que le sujet individuel entretient avec le collectif définit le sujet comme étant toujours et déjà pluriel. Le poète invente alors avec le poemetto un genre novateur qui mêle à la narration d’une histoire commune propre à l’epos, la mise en question de la subjectivité propre au lyrisme<br>This thesis aims to study poetic enunciation in Giovanni Pascoli’s Poemetti. Within the framework of a narrative poetry that gives ample space to reported speech, thus multiplying enunciatory subjects, the constitution of the poetic subject occurs via a polyphony which, far from being the prerogative of the novel, interrogates both traditional narrative forms and the monological lyrical model. The title of G. Contini’s foundational essay, « Il linguaggio di Pascoli », indicates that the voices that are heard in Pascoli’s most studied collections, Myricae and Canti di Castelvecchio, participate to the development of a metalinguistic process ; however, the voices that occur in the Poemetti draw attention to poetry’s metadiscursive function. It is its inscription within a shared, collective discourse that enables the biographical and allegorical subject to constitute itself and to overcome the feelings of bewilderment and solitude that define it. The subject then searches for an answer to the feeling of exclusion that haunts him in the collectiveness of family or community voices, either local or national, and especially in the autarkic and ideal family community of the “georgic novel”. It might seem paradoxical to emphasize polyphony and a form of dialogism in the context of an epos, or of lyrical poetry. The epos should indeed presuppose a world-view that is common to the characters, the author and the reader. Lyricism, on the other hand, should be founded upon the expression of an individual and intimate subjectivity. But we should not discount Pascoli’s will to fuse the singular and the collective in his poetic voice. Even his autobiographical poetry is indeed addressed to all. The polyphony, which expresses the individual subject’s relation to the collectivity, defines the subject as being initially and irrevocably plural. Thus the poemetto appears to be an innovative genre that combines the narration of a common story, characteristic of the epos, with the questioning of subjectivy that is specific to lyricism

Full textAbstract:
Esta dissertação apresenta uma leitura de Nosso Musseque (2003), do escritor angolano José Luandino Vieira, um romance que se filia ao conjunto da literatura produzida na década de 1960 e que flagra o cotidiano das parcelas mais desfavorecidas de Luanda: os moradores dos musseques. O objetivo é analisar a constituição do foco narrativo e os efeitos das diversas estratégias estilísticas utilizadas no sentido do texto. Sob a égide de uma literatura comprometida com a construção da nacionalidade e da angolanidade, o romance caracteriza-se pela recuperação da memória coletiva de um grupo de crianças que habitaram as periferias de Luanda no período anterior à Guerra de Libertação, do qual faz parte o narrador. O percurso entre a infância, a adolescência e a juventude é rememorado sob numa perspectiva que adere às personagens e que se revela na polifonia de vozes discursivas, no resgate de formas oriundas da lógica da oralidade das sociedades tradicionais africanas em tensão com as que se apresentam na literatura. Essa reconstrução da memória coletiva evidencia os embates dos sujeitos com o real excludente: desvela não só os momentos significativos em que os desejos de plenitude foram frustrados, mas também as estratégias de resistência dos marginalizados ao colonialismo. Nesse sentido, a trajetória dos meninos do musseque é recontada sob um ponto de vista interno e profundamente engajado, que recupera o processo de amadurecimento e o despertar de uma consciência revolucionária e utópica, imbricando ficção e realidade.<br>This Masters dissertation presents a reading of Nosso Musseque (2003) by the Angolan writer José Luandino Vieira, a novel that is part of the literature produced in the 60s and which catches daily life of the most disadvantaged parcels of Luanda: the inhabitants from musseques. Our goal is to analyze the narrative focus constitution and the effects of many stylistic strategies used on the text meaning. Under the aegis of a literature committed to the construction of nationality and the Angolanity, this novel is characterized by the collective memory recovery of a group of children, which lived in the borderlines of Luanda, before the Liberation War period, in which the narrator takes part. The journey through childhood, adolescence and youth is reminded under a perspective that adheres to the characters and which reveals itself on a polyphony of discursive voices, rescuing forms from the oral tradition logic in the African traditional societies, that are in tension with those presented in literature. The collective memory reconstruction evidences the conflicts between the individuals and the excluding true: his look will uncover not only the significant moments when the wishes for plenitude were frustrated, but also the resistance strategies from the marginalized related to the colonialism. Hence, the musseque boys journey is reported under an intimate and profoundly committed point of view that recollects the maturing process and the arousing of a revolutionary and utopian conscience, imbricating fiction and reality.

Full textAbstract:
The classic slave narrative recounted a fugitive slave’s personal story condemning slavery and hence working towards abolition. The neo-slave narrative underlines the slave’s historical legacy by unveiling the past through foregrounding African Atlantic experiences in an attempt to create a critical historiography of the Black Atlantic. The neo-slave narrative is a genre that emerged following World War II and presents us with a dialogue combining the history of 1970 - 2000. In this thesis I seek to explore how the contemporary counter-part of the classic slave narrative draws, reflects or diverges from the general conventions of its predecessor. I argue that by scrutinizing our notion of truth, the neo-slave narrative remains a relevant, important witness to the history of slavery as well as to today’s still racialized society. The historiographic metafiction of the neo-slave narrative rewrites history with the goal of digesting the past and ultimately leading to future reconciliation.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse consacrée à l’oeuvre narrative de l’écrivain suisse contemporain Adolf Muschg a pour ambition de faire apparaître la spécificité de son style, tout en démontrant la cohérence de sa démarche. Abordant un corpus encore peu connu, elle donne la priorité au texte dans sa singularité, sans renoncer aux outils d’analyse fournis par la narratologie, la stylistique et la narratologie énonciative. Les travaux de M. Bakhtine constituent un fil directeur de l’étude qui s’appuie en particulier sur la notion de « polyphonie » pour analyser les différents modes de combinaison des « voix » qui assument la narration, à l’échelle du texte comme de la phrase. Ces analyses permettent de montrer que l’oeuvre de Muschg, en plaidant pour une nouvelle conception de la réalité, devient une réflexion en acte sur le rôle de la littérature dans la société contemporaine. Une deuxième partie s’attache à l’aspect « anthropologique » de l’oeuvre qui présente l’homme comme un « être dialogique », tourné vers l’échange avec autrui. L’étude des récits que les personnages se font les uns aux autres montre que l’acte de narration est présenté comme la forme de communication humaine par excellence, tandis que la littérature est conçue comme un espace de dialogue : avec le lecteur d’une part, invité à participer à la création de l’oeuvre ; avec les auteurs d’autre part, qui sont cités, parodiés ou simplement évoqués. La présence de nombreuses références à des poètes justifie le choix du dernier axe de la thèse, qui montre que Muschg cherche à renouveler les règles de la narration en y laissant entrer les procédés de la poésie<br>This thesis deals with the work of the contemporary Swiss writer Adolf Muschg and focuses on his writing technique. Since this corpus has never been studied in France yet, we have paid particular attention to the text, using the methods of narratology, stylistic and statement linguistics. Mikhail Bakhtine’s theory, especially the notion of “polyphony” has guided the study of the different “voices” contributing to the narration. The result of these analyses leads us to conclude that Muschg wants to underline the crucial role of literature in a world dominated by technical concerns and material cares. By showing reality under an original point of view and enhancing the ambivalence of all phenomenons, literature becomes a way of resisting. The second part of this study sets out to investigate the “anthropological” aspect of Muschg’s work. The author shows that man is in first place a “dialogical being”, thus giving high significance to the act of narration, which he presents as the best medium for communicating. Consequently, he tries to leave much space for the reader in his works, inciting him to take part in the creation of the novels. His texts are also opened to the influences of other writers and can be studied under the aspect of intertextuality: not only does Muschg evocate and quote many writers, he also tries to subvert the rules of narration by inserting poetry into it

Magistro baigiamasis darbas „Rašymo polimorfija Ričardo Gavelio prozoje“ yra bandymas pristatyti naujus Gavelio kūrybos analizės taškus, kurie padėtų nustatyti šio autoriaus vietą lietuvių literatūros istorijoje. Darbe daugiausia remiamasi postruktūralistine literatūros ir kultūros teorija (Rolando Barthes‘o esė „Nulinis rašymo laipsnis“ ir Julijos Kristevos studija „Maišto prasmė ir beprasmybė. Psichoanalizės galios ir ribos“). Pirmoje darbo dalyje „Kas yra rašymas?“ analizuojama „bartiškoji“ rašymo koncepcija. Pabrėžiama, kad rašymas pirmiausia reiškia ne prasmės reprezentavimą, bet jos reiškimo būdą. Šis procesas yra neatsiejamas nuo formos problemos. Forma visada suponuoja tam tikrą sąmonės situaciją: vientisa forma signalizuoja vientisą, klasikinę sąmonę, susiskaidžiusi, chaotiška forma kalba apie heterogenišką sąmonę. Pirmoje darbo dalyje be rašymo problemos daug dėmesio skiriama rašymo-subjekto ryšių analizei. Šiame darbe remiamasi Barthes‘o rašymo ir formos koncepcija, tačiau manoma, kad Gavelio rašymas neišvengiamai liečia ir subjektą psichoanalitine prasme. Kalbėdami apie rašymo polimorfiją, neišvengiamai turime kalbėti ir apie subjektyvumo signifikaciją (subjektyvų tikrovės reikšminimą). Rašymo polimorfija šiame darbe reiškia rašymo sugebėjimą įgyti vis kitokią formą. Polimorfija reiškia, kad nebėra jokio centrinio naratyvo, kuris reguliuotų reikšmes. Kiekvienas tekstas – nauja, savita realybės forma. Kadangi kiekvienas Gavelio romanas yra vis kitoks realybės...

The idea has been developed that Gavelis‘ fiction tries to rebel against all mental forms that suppresses identity. This author creates a polymorphous writing which can be described as alogic, nihilistic and sensual narration that destroys socialistic ideology, provincial patriotism or metaphysical stagnation of culture and with the variety of writing’s forms helps to ‘defend’ free and plural consciousness. The main theoretical ideals are taken from Roland Barthes and Julia Kristevas‘ concepts of writing. It is though that synthesis of these concepts helps to reveal the real variety of Gavelis‘ writing. The first part of the research focuses on the analysis of Barthes’ concept of writing and it’s connection to Kristeva’s concept. It is discussed how formalistic-structuralistic concept of subject and writing can be seen in the light of psychoanalytical ideas. Forms, signification, polymorphy – these are the object of the analyses in the first part. The polymorphy of writing means than Gavelis uses different ways to express the meaning in each novel. The second part of the research focuses on analyses the polymorphy writing in of Gavelis’ fiction. The aim of the analyses is to show how the variety of writing... [to full text]

Cette étude répond à l’intitulé suivant : La fiction romanesque de la postmodernité et ses labyrinthes. L’exemple des textes d’Alain Robbe-Grillet (France, 1922-2008), de Juan José Saer (Argentine, 1937-2005) et de Boubacar Boris Diop (Sénégal, 1947-). Elle se propose de cerner, sous l’autorité méthodologique de la poétique textuelle, les diverses modalités par lesquelles le motif du labyrinthe s’impose comme substrat privilégié de la poétique du récit chez trois écrivains appartenant à des aires linguistiques et culturelles différentes. Le choix et l’examen des textes de ces trois écrivains reposent sur la volonté de montrer le déploiement de ce motif dans l’organisation interne de la fiction romanesque postmoderne. En effet, intégré dans la dynamique interne de l’oeuvre de manière très diversifiée, le motif du labyrinthe surgit dans toutes les problématiques qui traversent l’écriture romanesque postmoderne. Par commodité méthodologique et rigueur scientifique, cette étude se déploie suivant trois axes complémentaires. Tandis que le premier qui s’intitule « Le labyrinthe comme invariant obsessionnel de la fiction romanesque de la postmodernité » s’attache à faire ressortir les diverses facettes sous lesquelles ce motif se déploie dans la dynamique textuelle du récit fictionnel postmoderne ; le deuxième qui a pour titre « Le labyrinthe comme modalité constitutive de la narrativité du récit : la fiction romanesque de la postmodernité à l’épreuve de la discontinuité », s’attèle quant à lui, à examiner en quoi ce motif participe d’un projet d’écriture qui revendique la discontinuité comme principe narratif ; enfin, le troisième qui a pour intitulé « Le labyrinthe comme modalité caractéristique de l’interdiscursivité et de l’intergénéricité de la dynamique textuelle : la fiction romanesque de la postmodernité à l’épreuve de la polyphonie », entreprend pour sa part de démontrer en quoi ce motif est constitutif de la polyphonie qui gouverne la dynamique textuelle du récit fictionnel postmoderne<br>This study answers the following title: Romantic fiction of postmodernity and its mazes. The example of the texts of Alain Robbe-Grillet (France, 1922-2008), of Juan José Saer (Argentina, 1937-2005) and of Boubacar Boris Diop (Senegal, 1947-). It intends to identify, under authority methodological of poetic text the various modalities by which the pattern of the labyrinth becomes established as privileged substrate of the poetic narrative in three writers belonging to different linguistic and cultural areas. The choice and examination of the texts of these three writers rest on the will to show the deployment of this pattern in the internal organization of the postmodern romantic fiction. Indeed, integrated in the internal dynamic of writing in a very diversified way, the pattern of the maze appears in all the problems which cross the romantic writing. For methodological convenience and scientific rigour, this study deploys according to three complementary axes. While the first is entitled "The labyrinth as obsessive invariant of the romantic fiction of postmodernity" sets out to bring out the different aspects in which this pattern unfolds in dynamic textual postmodern fictional narrative, the second which is entitled "The labyrinth as constitutive modality of the narrativity of the story : romantic fiction of postmodernity to the test of discontinuity", gets down to examine how this pattern is part of a writing project that claims the discontinuity principle as narrative, and the third which is entitled "The labyrinth as a characteristic modality of interdiscursivity and intergenericity textual dynamic : romantic fiction of postmodernity to the test of polyphony" undertakes to show how this pattern is constitutive of polyphony which governs the dynamic of textual postmodern fictional narrative

Full textAbstract:
In this thesis, I explore the textual strategy of feminist revision employed by contemporary women writers. After investigating Jean Rhys’s Wide Sargasso Sea as a prototype of feminist revision, I focus specifically on Angela Carter’s “The Bloody Chamber” as a revision of Charles Perrault’s “Bluebeard,” Michèle Roberts’s The Book of Mrs Noah as a revision of the Old Testament Flood narrative, Margaret Atwood’s The Penelopiad as a revision of Homer’s Odyssey and the Troy narratives, and Ursula K. Le Guin’s Lavinia as a revision of Vergil’s Aeneid. Through investigating the historical and literary contexts of each revisioned text, I identify the critical focus of the revision and analyse the textual effect produced by the revision. In each case, the feminist revision exposes the underlying ideological assumptions of the source text. By rewriting the canonical narrative from an alternative perspective, each revision extends beyond the source text, altering meaning and reinterpreting key symbols for feminist ends.

Full textAbstract:
In the last two decades, in media and political discourses, Italianness has been increasingly represented as a homogeneous and compact entity, which is intruded on and contaminated by immigrants. In this study, the binary opposition between Italians and migrants is investigated from the perspective of writers who inhabit a liminal space, between at least two cultures, with the main intent to problematize the binary itself and to show its nature of fabrication. On the basis of Said's contrapuntal method, the novels by Ghermandi, Scego, Ali Farah and Lakhous are thought to establish a counterpoint with dominant discourses about Italianness. With the firm belief that discourses about postcolonial Italy must address its colonial past, the works analysed are considered as in dialogue with both colonial and postcolonial discourses. A dialogical relation is established, within the study, between Ghermandi's Regina di fiori e di perle and Flaiano's Tempo di uccidere. Written from the perspectives of the colonized and the colonizers respectively, both novels unveil colonial crimes and faults in Ethiopia, thus being counter-narratives about official representations of Italian colonialism. In Scego's Rhoda and Oltre Babilonia and Ali Farah's Madre piccolo, like threads, the individual stories of Somali exiles intertwine to create a fabric, whose pattern reveals the importance of the legacy of colonialism within contemporary Italy. Mainly situated between Italian and Somali cultures, the protagonists experience traumas, suffering and loss but finally attain a contrapuntal awareness between the two cultural poles. They become conscious of how enriching their in-between position is; they affirm the value of their hybrid identity. With a further zoom into postcolonial Italy, Lakhous' Scontro di civiltà per un ascensore a piazza Vittorio and Divorzio all'islamica a viale Marconi analyse the binary ‘us-Italians' versus ‘thosemigrants' in two microcosms in Rome. General polarizations such as Islam and the West emerge as factors which are exploited in order to exacerbate tensions and divisions. In addition, Italianness appears to be an internally fragmented entity, which is imagined as compact and homogeneous, as a reaction to the influx of immigrants. Against any logic of binarism, the novels by Ghermandi, Scego, Ali Farah and Lakhous reveal the constant effort to create a passage between two poles and to uphold a dialogical relation between them; crossings over and hybridity are continuously affirmed. With their highly important affirmation of multiplicity, the works challenge any essentializing notion of identity and any narrow representation of Italianness, within multiethnic contemporary Italy.

<p>Revoicing Sámi narratives investigates the relationship between storytellers, contexts and collective tradition, based on an analysis of North Sámi narratives published in the early 1900s. This dissertation “revoices” narratives by highlighting the coexistence of different voices or socio-ideological languages in repertoires and by considering Sámi narratives as utterances by storytellers rather than autonomous products of tradition. Thus, this study serves as an act of “revoicing,” of recovering voices that had been silenced by the scientific discourse which enveloped their passage into print.</p><p>Narrators considered “tradition bearers” were interviewed or wrote down folk narratives that were interpreted as representative of a static, dying culture. The approach chosen in this thesis highlights the dynamic and conscious choices of narrative strategies made by these storytellers and the implications of the discourses expressed in narration. By taking into account the intense context of social change going on in Sápmi at the time the narratives emerged, as well as the context that includes narrators, ethnographers and tradition, the analysis demonstrates that storytelling is an elaboration that takes place in negotiation with tradition, genres and individual preferences.</p><p>The repertoires of four storytellers are studied according to a methodological framework consisting in critical discourse analysis from a folkloristic perspective.

Full textAbstract:
À la fois procédé artistico-littéraire et réflexion intellectuelle, la mise en abyme est une des stratégies de création favorites du romancier Umberto Eco. Certains auteurs ont utilisé cette technique uniquement pour de créer de « simples » jeux de miroirs (comme c’est le cas des Nouveaux Romanciers). Chez Umberto Eco, la mise en abyme est destinée à faire saillir aussi bien l’intelligibilité que la structuration de l’oeuvre. Elle est un principe récursif de la génération de figures et de formes narratives fractales : elle est pour ainsi dire le raisonnement servant comme base dans la création d’un univers romanesque par excellence autoréflexif. Selon une représentation très succincte (mais essentielle), la mise en abyme est ce dispositif narratif consistant à insérer un (ou plusieurs) récit(s) dans le Récit, qui, en reproduisant les caractéristiques de ce dernier va (vont) l’illustrer, l’expliquer et mettre en évidence le/les thème(s) de l’oeuvre<br>An artistic and literary procedure and, at the same time, an intellectual reflexion, mise en abyme is one of the favorite strategies of creation of the novelist U. Eco. Certain authors have used this technique just to create "simple" games of mirrors (such as the French writers called "Nouveaux Romanciers"). In the case of Umberto Eco, mise en abyme is destined to emphasize both the intelligibility of his work, as well as its being structured in multiple layers of narrativity. We reckon that this is the recursive principle, serving at the generating of fractal shapes and characters: this is therefore the reasoning laying at the foundation of creating a fictional universe self-reflective par excellence. If we want a very concise (but essential) representation, we will say that the mise en abyme is that device consisting of the insertion of one or many more stories into The Story, which, by reproducing the characteristics of the latter, provides us with an explanation and will shed light on the theme / themes of the work

Full textAbstract:
L´écriture du moi a pu apparaître comme l´écriture de ce qui justement n´est pas un seul mais multiple, et le monologue au sens défini par Dujardin comme une forme inadaptée ou incomplète pour traduire ce clivage du sujet. De l´enfermement en soi auquel le monologue classique semblait contraindre l´être, on est passé à une ouverture à l´Autre permise par le dialogue et permettant la représentation du moi dans sa discontinuité. Cette thèse a pour objet d’étudier cette écriture à plusieurs voix dans des oeuvres comme les Vagues de V. Woolf, Malina de Bachmann ou Enfance de Sarraute. Le travail mené considèrera les différents aspects de cette mise en scène disglossique et polyphonique du sujet en s’intéressant plus particulièrement à ses conséquences sur l’écriture narrative. Cette forme de dialogue ou de conversation intérieure permet au protagoniste de s´exprimer sans se restreindre aux règles d´un seul échiquier langagier. Les prises de paroles des différents locuteurs laissent émerger d´autres langues. La parole devient plurielle, polyglotte, exogamique. Cette alternance de langages, de discours permet à l´auteur de créer une respiration nouvelle dans l´écriture même, ouvrant sur une réinvention de l’usage de la parole et du mode langagier personnels où les frontières des genres sexuels et littéraires s’effacent pour laisser place à un absolu de l’écriture<br>Writing about the self could not have seemed unique but multiple and the monologue as qualified by Dujardin not adjusted or an incomplete form to demonstrate the distinction of the subject. From the total self confinement, in which the classic monologue seemed to condemn the subject, we eventually made overtures to the other one thanks to the dialogue and we managed to represent the self in its discontinuity. This thesis intends to study the several writing voices in masterpieces such as The Waves by V. Woolf, Malina by Bachman and Enfance by Sarraute. The work will consider the different sights of the disglossic and polyphonic production of the subject and more precisely of the consequences on the narrative writing.This form of dialogue or internal talking allows the protagonist to express himself without applying the rules of only one model. The speaking of different people creates other idioms. The speaking becomes plural, polyglot, exogamous. The reciprocation of languages or speeches gives the author the power to create a new breath in the writing, leading to the reinvention of speech and of the personal language mode, when the borders of sexual and literary genders vanish to leave room to absolute writing

Previous issue date: 2009-12-16<br>Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico<br>OBJECTIVES: Investigate the narrative construction processes of the comic
book Watchmen, based in the concepts of intertextuality, intersemioticity,
polyphony, dialogism and unending; examine the way the artwork establish a
foucaultian critic to the control society; develop the analysis of the thematicanalytical
points of the distopic fiction, of the cultural-historical context of the
Cold War and of the intersemioticities with Ésquilo s Chained Prometheus and
with Mary Shelley s Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus. RELEVANCE:
Watchmen is a very rich construct in terms of language and of content. In its
almost four hundred pages, it offers to the reader a complex semiosis, full of
cultural-artistic references taken from various sources. These referentials install
on the watchmenian narrative also their languages and their significates, and
they are added of a characters discourses perspective that is polyphonic and
dialogical, in the same basis Bakhtin worked these perspectives over
Dostoiévski s oeuvre. And, following the bakhtinian shaping, the story is not
ended as a concluding synthesis. Over the years, Watchmen has been
considered a paradigmatic work and has been said in various instances as the
best comic book ever written. Hypothesis: Watchmen is constructed as a nonlinear
and multi-layered narrative, with a multiplicity of signifying levels that
make it a narrative mosaic in which co-exist e to which converge all of its
referentials. METHODOLOGIC-THEORETICAL ASPECTS: the research is
bibliographical, applying on the object the theoretical topics. REACHED
RESULTS: The intertextualities of the comic book established it as a narrative
focused on the history and on the creative and conceptual developments of its
own genre. The intersemioticities revealed the possibility of the construction of
an artistic architecture fulfilled with different language and contents, in multiple
levels, constituting a polissemy. The bakhtinian elaborations of the polyphony,
dialogism and unending showed adequate to direct applyings to Watchmen,
setting the comic book as polyphonic, dialogical and opened<br>OBJETIVOS: Investigar os processos de construção narrativa da história em
quadrinhos Watchmen, com base nos conceitos de intertextualidade,
intersemioticidade, polifonia, dialogismo e inacabamento; examinar a maneira
pela qual a obra tece uma crítica de molde foucaultiano à sociedade de
controle; desenvolver a análise, na obra, dos pontos temático-analíticos da
ficção distópica, do contexto histórico-cultural da Guerra Fria e das
intersemioticidades com o Prometeu Acorrentado de Ésquilo e com o
Frankenstein ou O Moderno Prometeu, de Mary Shelley. JUSTIFICATIVA:
Watchmen é um construto riquíssimo em termos de linguagem e em termos de
conteúdo. A obra, ao longo de suas quase quatrocentas páginas, oferece ao
leitor uma semiose complexa, eivada de referenciais artístico-culturais oriundos
de diversos campos. Esses referenciais instalam na narrativa watchmeniana
tanto suas linguagens quanto suas significações, e são adicionados de uma
perspectiva de construção dos discursos das personagens que é polifônica e
dialógica, nas mesmas bases em que Bakhtin trabalhou essas perspectivas
sobre a obra de Dostoiévski. E, seguindo o molde bakhtiniano, a história não é
finalizada enquanto síntese conclusiva. Ao longo dos anos Watchmen vem
sendo tratada como obra paradigmática, e é considerada em variadas esferas
a melhor história em quadrinhos já escrita. HIPÓTESE: Watchmen é construída
como uma narrativa não-linear e multi-narrativa, com uma multiplicidade de
camadas de significação que a tornam um mosaico narrativo no qual coexistem
e para o qual convergem todos os seus referenciais formadores.
ASPECTOS TEÓRICO-METODOLÓGICOS: trata-se de uma pesquisa
bibliográfica que aplica sobre o objeto os pressupostos teóricos levantados.
RESULTADOS OBTIDOS: As intertextualidades da obra firmaram-na como
narrativa que foca sua atenção na história e nos desenvolvimentos criativos e
conceituais de seu próprio gênero. As intersemioticidades revelaram a
possibilidade de construção de uma arquitetura artística que se valha de
linguagens e de conteúdos diversos, em múltiplos níveis, constituindo uma
polissemia. As elaborações bakhtinianas da polifonia, da dialogia e do
inacabamento mostraram-se adequadas para uma aplicação direta à
Watchmen, caracterizando a obra como polifônica, dialógica e aberta

Full textAbstract:
L’objectif de la présente recherche est double: il s’agit dans un premier temps de proposer une autre lecture de Mein Jahrhundert de Günter Grass à partir des manuscrits en adoptant une perspective génétique au plus près du texte. À partir d’un corpus d’étude restreint, mais représentatif, recelant des documents sources explicites et montrant les différentes phases rédactionnelles nous avons mis en évidence un certain nombre de procédés caractéristiques de l’écriture grassienne et de phénomènes tant endogénétiques qu’exogénétiques révélant le recours à une intertextualité protéiforme déclarée ou dissimulée. Cette entreprise descriptive et interprétative s’est ensuite doublée d’une démarche herméneutique destinée à vérifier si l’ouvrage satisfait aux ambitions didactiques affichées par l’auteur en matière de transmission de l’Histoire, une transmission à finalité civique visant à prévenir ses bégaiements. En optant pour la polyphonie et le récit par le bas Grass entend également combler les lacunes du discours historiographique officiel. À l’issue d’un travail de recherche des sources avérées ou hypothétiques, nous avons mis en évidence que Grass a essentiellement recours à des sources journalistiques lui permettant d’ancrer le récit dans la réalité historique et d’inscrire son livre dans une veine populaire. La présence d’une matière documentaire implicite souvent dense requiert toutefois un savoir extratextuel de la part du lecteur, ce qui va à l’encontre d’une écriture populaire de l’Histoire, même si plusieurs degrés de lecture sont possibles. Le recours à la polyphonie prétendument garant d’une narration pluriperspective est un leurre en raison du marquage axiologique négatif de certains narrateurs laissant transparaître la position idéologique de l’auteur. Le choix des narrateurs, qu’ils soient empruntés à la réalité historique ou fictifs, comme celui des événements s’inscrit dans un système de valeurs univoque faisant constamment référence au discours épitextuel de l’auteur qui peut faire figure d’intertexte. L’écriture de l’Histoire s’appuie ainsi sur une rhétorique de la répétition polymorphe et transversale qu’elle soit autotextuelle, thématique, picturale ou concerne les procédés narratifs, ce qui accrédite la thèse d’un haut degré d’autoréférentialité de l’ouvrage et d’une perception autocentrique du siècle<br>Our research has a dual aim: first to offer a new reading of Mein Jahrhundert by Günter Grass from the manuscripts and from a genetic perspective while remaining as close as possible to the text. Using a restricted but representative corpus of studies with explicit source documents and pointing to various phases of writing, we have highlighted a certain number of procedures which are characteristic of the way Grass wrote, as well as phenomena of both an endogenous and exogenous nature which show his recourse to declared or hidden proteiform intertextuality. This descriptive and interpretative undertaking was then doubled with a hermeneutic approach aimed at establishing whether the work fulfils the didactic ambitions the author asserts regarding the conveying of History with a civic agenda aimed at overcoming the author’s stuttering. By opting for polyphony and a narrative from below, Grass also intends to fill gaps in the discourse of official historiography. After researching proved or hypothetical sources, we were able to demonstrate that Grass essentially uses journalistic sources which allow him to anchor his narrative in historic reality while writing his book in a popular vein. The presence of often dense implicit documentary material nevertheless makes far‐reaching extra‐textual knowledge on the part of the reader necessary, even if various layers of reading are possible.Recourse to the polyphony which is put forward as a guarantee for a narration from differing perspectives is misleading because of the negative value judgements of certain narrators revelatory of the author’s ideological position. The choice of narrators, whether borrowed from historic reality or fictional, just as the choice of the events is part of an unequivocal value hierarchy which constantly refers to the author’s epitextual discourse, which may be read a an inter‐text. The writing of History thus is based upon a rhetoric which consists of polymorphous and transversal repetition, ranging between autotextual, thematic, and pictorial and absorbed by narrative procedures. This corroborates the hypothesis that the work is highly self‐referential and based upon a self‐centred perception of the century

Full textAbstract:
Depuis la fin des années 1980, les collaborations avec les communautés autochtones semblent s’accroître dans les musées canadiens. Un déplacement apparaît de la prise de parole en contexte de revendication au don de parole en contexte muséal. Après la remise en cause des musées ethnologiques, la prise en charge de la parole autochtone annonce le temps de la reconnaissance. Seulement, le mot reconnaissance est employé dans des contextes variés en muséologie. Ses occurrences indiquent plusieurs sens, dérivés de la volonté de redonner dignité et respect aux peuples autochtones et de produire des expositions qui présentent leur patrimoine d’origine à la lumière de leurs points de vue. Selon une approche communicationnelle, notre travail a porté sur les pratiques des musées qui consistent à donner la parole aux peuples autochtones et à l’exposer. Le travail a été centré sur la combinaison des points de vue autochtones avec ceux des concepteurs-muséographes. L’entreprise de la recherche a visé à cerner les opérations induites et générées par cette situation d’entrecroisements de points de vue, plus ou moins discordants, qui doivent, d’une manière ou d’une autre, s’unir dans un même espace communicationnel. Le système polyphonique de l’exposition est conceptualisé en trois moments de médiation : la prise en compte, la monstration et l’interprétation des points de vue autochtones. Ils correspondent aux intentions des concepteurs-muséographes et des expositions, puis à la manière dont elles sont interprétées par les visiteurs. Nous avons réalisé quatre enquêtes de terrain dans onze musées à travers le Canada : observation participante ; entretiens individuels auprès de professionnels des musées ; analyse de discours ; entretiens de groupes auprès de visiteurs autochtones et allochtones. Nous avons examiné les pratiques collaboratives et croisé ces quatre formes de discours des musées afin de mettre à l’épreuve le potentiel de reconnaissance des expositions qui tiennent compte des points de vue des représentants autochtones. Il résulte que la patrimonialisation est conçue en tant que processus de reconnaissance. De plus, l’intensification de la patrimonialisation des objets autochtones est synchronique de l’expansion coloniale. Néanmoins, l’analyse de la prise de distance du concepteur-muséographe vis-à-vis de son point de vue et de celui des autochtones rend compte des relations complexes entre le don de parole, l’autorité de discours et l’auctorialité. Malgré les divergences entre les intentions explicitées par les professionnels et leurs intentions implicites dans les expositions, les discours des visiteurs autochtones et allochtones traduisent un contrat de reconnaissance entre le musée et les visiteurs. Ainsi, le principe polyphonique et ses formes de reconnaissance sont mis en évidence dans les espaces de production et de réception des expositions produites en collaboration. Notre recherche révèle plusieurs modalités de reconnaissance manifestes dans la combinaison et l’entrecroisement des voix autochtones avec celles des praticiens. Cet essai d’interprétation met au jour des conflits d’ordre patrimonial et socio-historique qui engendrent des mécanismes de régulation par assimilation/accommodation. Il décrit deux logiques fondamentales relatives à l’identité et à la mémoire. De ces adaptations mises en œuvre par les musées ressort un phénomène permanent de reconnaissance amorcé depuis la colonisation des territoires autochtones. La recherche suggère finalement d’envisager le musée comme lieu de reconnaissance non seulement du patrimoine, mais aussi des publics et des peuples donateurs et donataires du patrimoine<br>Collaborations with aboriginal communities appear to be increasing in Canadian museums, with the communities shifting from speaking in a context of claiming theirrights to being given a voice in the museum context. In keeping with the questioning about ethnological museums, taking into account the voice of the aboriginal peoplesprefigures since the eighties the time for recognition. But the word recognition is used indiverse museum contexts.Based on a communicational approach, our research considers the links between thepolyphonic and recognition modalities of the exhibition media. We have attempted toidentify and understand the processes induced and generated by exhibitions’ interactionaland intertextual systems. The polyphonic system is conceptualized in three mediation moments in the production and reception spaces of the exhibition: acknowledgment, monstration, and interpretation of aboriginal points of view. They correspond to there cognition intentions of the exhibitions and designers-museographers, then visitors’recognition. We have conducted four field studies in eleven different Canadian museums : participant observation; one-on-one interviews with museum professionals; discourse analysis ; group interviews with native and non-native visitors. We have studied the collaborative practicesand these four types of museum discourses to demonstrate the recognition potential ofexhibitions dedicated to the aboriginals’ perspectives.Our research reveals several recognition modes manifest in the combination andinterlinking of aboriginals’ and practitioners’ voices; it identifies logic in the polysemy ofthe word recognition. This interpretation essay reveals patrimonial and socio-historical conflicts that generate regulation mechanisms through assimilation/accommodation. A permanent recognition phenomenon emerges from the adaptations implemented by themuseums since the beginning of aboriginal patrimonialization during the colonizationperiod. Our research proposes to apprehend the museum as a recognition place of heritage, but also of the general public and the peoples, whether donors or donees of that heritage

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立政治大學<br>英國語文學系<br>88<br>The history of human writing is a continual process of decomposition and re-permutation, and the process reached its climax after the application of hypertextual technology in the late twentieth century. Hypertext is not the simple transplantation of text from page to screen but an innovative technology which is fragmentary, interconnected, nonlinear and multidirectional. It provides an environment of incomparable textual malleability and further fulfills many deconstructive hypotheses about text.
In 1962, Jorge Luis Borges suggested a fragmentary, chaotic, nonlinear and multidirectional narrative for the novel. In 1987, Gilles Deleuze presented the theory of nomadism and suggested the a-centered, non-hierarchic and randomly permuted structure. It was impossible, however, to create such a “Garden of Forking Paths” in the printed novel. The thoroughly decomposed text is nothing more than a heap of contradictory segments of paper. It is Stuart Moulthrop who successfully consolidated the fragmentary lexias with the hypertextual links and created a genuine “garden of forking paths” in Victory Garden. The fragmentary structure of Victory Garden helps the characters in the novel articulate themselves equally and independently, and the reader, the formerly auditor of the dialogue, can participate in the hyperfiction, too.
This thesis is divided into four chapters. The first chapter introduces the rationale and the history of hypertext. The second and third concentrate upon the interface and the “plots” of Victory Garden respectively to see how it better fulfills Deleuze’s nomadism and Bakhtin’s theory of polyphony. In the final chapter, the future of hypertextual studies are discussed.

Tese de Doutoramento em Antropologia na especialidade de Antropologia Visual apresentada à Universidade Aberta<br>Os Açorianos nascem nas suas ilhas marcados pela inevitabilidade da
partida: “Nascemos já preparados para a partida”, dizem-nos na ilha de S.
Jorge. Sismos, dificuldades económicas, escassez de terra estão na origem desta circunstância. A geografia a sobrepor-se à história, como sublinhava Vitorino Nemésio.
Uma fatalidade na partida que tem associada a ideia de regresso. Partida
e regresso fazem parte das narrativas açorianas no romance, no conto ou
na música. Uma vez na diáspora, o regresso (ou o desejo de regressar)
permanece. “Ricos ou desiludidos pretendem voltar. O ideal do Açoriano é
formar lá um pecúlio e vir depois gozá-lo na sua ilha querida”, diz-nos
mestre Leite de Vasconcelos depois de uma saudosa visita às ilhas em
1926.
Muito frequentemente, o regresso acaba por não se concretizar, principalmente por razões familiares. Um conflito que a expressão “minha
terra minha dor, meu filho meu amor” bem expressa.
Os processos migratórios originam sempre novos territórios culturais,
desde logo pela desterritorialização (perda da relação natural com o
território cultural de origem). A adaptação cultural que ela obriga
desencadeia fenómenos de reterritorialização ou, por outras palavras,
processos de adaptação a novos territórios, originando novas ilhas
açorianas em terras da América. O arquipélago prolonga-se para lá da
ilha do Corvo. Outras ilhas existem mais a ocidente.
Este estudo centra-se na questão do regresso a partir da vaga migratória
dos Capelinhos, nome com que ficou conhecida a geração que emigrou
na sequência da erupção dos Capelinhos, em 1957, e que está hoje na
idade de reforma e, por isso, com possibilidade de voltar. Com uma
permanência longa, de várias décadas, em terras novas, as suas raízes
estão divididas entre a terra onde nasceram e onde se encontram as suas
memórias de infância, e a Califórnia, onde viveram vidas ativas e onde
nasceram os filhos e os netos. “A terra dos nossos filhos é também a
nossa terra”, dizem-nos em S. José (Califórnia). A terra velha terá ficado
para trás.
O texto apresentado será, nos aspetos essenciais, intencionalmente
multidiscursivo e polifónico (múltiplas vozes), tomando caraterísticas
diferentes que passarão pela etnohistória, narrativas pessoais biográficas,
descrições pormenorizadas da vida quotidiana de famílias, com o
propósito de apresentar um texto que pretendemos seja uma alegoria
sobre o regresso (allegoria, de allos “outro” + agoria “discurso”).
Refletiremos também sobre o contributo e as especificidades de um
trabalho de observação mediado por câmara e sobre o contributo do filme
etnográfico e do hipervídeo enquanto discursos narrativos que concorrem
com o texto para a compreensão do regresso e da Açorianidade.
Apresentaremos seis casos de estudo (seis famílias), que foram objeto de
acompanhamento durante dois meses de trabalho de campo em S. Jorge
(Açores) e nove meses em S. José (Califórnia). Com este trabalho, que
inclui a produção de um documentário e de um hipervídeo, estudámos o
modo como o desejo de regressar é vivenciado nos quotidianos,
acrescentando conteúdos para um retrato polifónico do regresso, que
pretenderá juntar-se a um álbum de outros retratos sobre a Açorianidade.
A escrita, o audiovisual, o hipervídeo não são, pois, discursos e narrativas
separados mas resultam numa cultura de convergência dos média e dos
conteúdos.<br>Azoreans are born onto their islands marked by the inevitability of
departure: "We are born prepared for departure" we are told on the island
of S. Jorge. Earthquakes, economic difficulties, shortage of land are the
source of this condition. The geography overlaps history as is stressed
Vitorino Nemésio.
One outcome of any departure is that it is often associated with the idea of
return. Departure and return are a part of Azorean narratives, be it in
novels, short story or in music. Once in the diaspora, return or the desire
to do so will persevere. “Rich or disillusioned, they intend to return. The
Azorean ideal is to save up and return, in order to enjoy it on their beloved
island”, says Leite Vasconcelos, after a heartfelt visit to the islands in
1926.
More often then not, however, the definite return does not materialize,
owed primarily for family reasons. A sentiment well expressed in the
saying: “my land my pain, my son my love”.
Migration processes ultimately originate new cultural territories, brought
about by deterritorialization (loss of a natural relationship with the cultural
territory of origin). The forced cultural brings about a phenomena of
reterritorialization, or, in other words, a processes of adaptation to new
territory, leading to the creation of ‘new Azorean islands’ on the American
landscape. The archipelago extends beyond the islands of Flores and
Corvo. This study focuses on issues of return, focusing on the Capelinhos
migration wave, the name given to the generation of emigrants that
departed following the eruption of the Capelinhos volcano in 1957 and
who, today, are of retirement age and, therefore, could hold the possibility
of returning. With their prolonged stay, now ranging several decades, in
‘the new land’, their roots are divided by the land where they were born
and where their childhood memories are implanted, and California where
they lived out their active lives and where their children and grandchildren
were born. “The land of our children is also our land”, we are told in San
Jose (California). The old country has been left behind.
The text to be presented will be on these essential aspects, intentionally
multi-discursive and polyphonic (multiple voiced) taking into consideration
different characteristics that will include ethno-histories, personal
biographical narratives, detailed descriptions of daily family life, this with
the purpose of presenting a written account aimed to be an allegory on
return (allegoria, from allos 'other' + agoria 'speaking').
We will additionally reflect on the contribution and specificities garnished
through observation fieldwork mediated by video camera relying on the
contribution of ethnographic film and hypervideo as narrative discourse
methods that while accompany the text for a richer understanding of return
and the Azoreaness.
We present six case studies (six families) who were the object of fieldwork
observation for a period of two months on the island of S. Jorge (Azores)
and nine months in San Jose (California). With this study, which
additionally includes the production of a documentary and hypervideo, we
observe how the desire to return is experienced on a daily basis, adding content to a polyphonic portrait of return with the aim of putting together an
album of portraits on Azoreaness.

Full textAbstract:
Les écritures francophones, liées au concept de
« francophonie » et à son instabilité typologique, sont actuellement regroupées en un ensemble hétéroclite, délimité à la fois par une utilisation commune de la langue française et, plus précisément, par leurs lieux d'émergence. Visant l'autonomisation de ces écritures face au champ littéraire français, plusieurs réflexions ont favorisé l'atomisation de la francophonie littéraire en isolant les oeuvres selon certains déterminants géographiques, linguistiques et culturels. Ces lectures, axées sur la recherche de spécificités sociales ou identitaires, ont occulté les similitudes textuelles pouvant relier les écritures francophones qui, notamment dans le cadre romanesque, exposent une complexité devenue incontournable. L'étude comparative de Monnè, outrages et défis (1990) d'Ahmadou Kourouma et de Texaco (1992) de Patrick Chamoiseau vise à établir un dialogue littéraire entre des oeuvres d'Afrique subsaharienne et des Antilles, jusqu'ici cloisonnées dans des typologies exclusives. Les romans de Kourouma et de Chamoiseau partagent une écriture éclatée et plurielle: leur analyse approfondie révèle un discours où s'imbriquent de multiples narrations, où se rencontrent divers énonciateurs. La polyphonie caractéristique de ces textes, également réfléchie au sein de leur thématique, provoque un effet global de « décentrement » et éclaire un travail similaire sur les normes romanesques, dont la portée pourrait s'étendre jusqu'aux relations entretenues entre les champs littéraires français et francophones. En tentant de définir comment la polyphonie façonne la narration et l'énonciation de ces oeuvres et quelles en sont les fonctions, notre étude met en relief une convergence possible entre deux espaces francophones, prenant forme dans un même décentrement esthétique. L'analyse de la polyphonie et du décentrement dans Monnè, outrages et défis et dans Texaco nous permet d'établir la première comparaison entre ces textes, mais aussi d'élaborer le premier parallèle portant uniquement sur la narration et l'énonciation entre les littératures francophones d'Afrique subsaharienne et des Antilles. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Afrique, Antilles, Polyphonie, Décentrement, Narration, Énonciation.

Full textAbstract:
This is a postmodernist dissertation contextualised within the new
epistemology.
The dissertation's descriptive methodology mirrors a personal journey
from intrapsychic to ecosystemic psychology which operates within the
domain of language and narrative discourse. As such it is founded on the
principles of ecosystemic rather than Newtonian thinking.
A conversation between various participants constructs the dissertatioi1
through polyphony and academic dialogue. This is then deconstructed through
the use of metalogue thereby allowing the dissertation to operate
simultaneously on a number of different levels.
As it is a postmodernist text, the structure is in a sense an 'anti-structure'
in that it is indirect while it is still acknowledged as a construction. In this
way it is constructed and deconstructed in terms of its own premises.
