Full textAbstract:
This thesis investigates the origins and behaviour of the non-canonical morphological phenomenon of heteroclisis in the verb paradigms of Latin and the Romance languages. Heteroclisis is the coexistence, within a single paradigm, of forms which pattern according to different inflectional classes existing otherwise in the language: a heteroclite lexeme can thus be seen as 'mixed' or 'undecided' as to its inflectional identity. I begin by examining the development of the theoretical concept of heteroclisis and approaches to the idea of inflectional class in general, before situating heteroclisis in typological space in comparison with better-known instances of non-canonical morphology such as deponency and suppletion; heteroclisis exists at a different level of generalization from these, because its identification presupposes the existence of inflectional classes, themselves generalizations over the behaviour of individual lexemes. I also consider two recent theoretical treatments of the phenomenon and survey recent linguistic studies making use of the notion. I then look at the synchronic and diachronic behaviour of heteroclisis in Latin and Romance verbs: the great time depth of our attestations of these languages gives us the chance to witness the development of successive examples of heteroclisis, and their subsequent treatment within the morphological system, in the history of a single family. Focusing chiefly on data from Latin, Romanian and Romansh, I find that the principal (though not the only) source for new instances of heteroclisis in Latin/Romance lies in regular sound change, and find that speakers can treat these synchronically anomalous patterns as robust models of inflectional behaviour to be extended over the lexicon or brought into line with pre-existing types of paradigm-internal alternation. These findings concur with previous demonstrations that speakers make use of non-canonical phenomena as markers of the internal structure of inflectional paradigms.

Full textAbstract:
An aspect of the Romance languages that defies neat linguistic analysis is tense usage. In particular, students of Romance languages as well as grammarians have found it difficult to provide a consistent explanation for the imperfect - preterite opposition. Two main points of contention concern (i) the question of whether the two forms have an inherent aspectual content and (ii) the structure and role of lexical aspectual information in determining the overall meaning of a sentence. While the attempts at explaining French and Spanish usages of the imperfect and the preterite are numerous, hardly any work has been done in the interpretation of Romanian data. Furthermore, a general assumption that the same form - function opposition holds across Romance languages has led to cross-linguistic differences rarely being examined. I argue that the imperfect and the preterite do have an inherent aspectual content. However, in opposition to previous accounts, I maintain that the preterite does not provide a ‘closed’ viewpoint and that an atelic eventuality described by the verb phrase in the preterite can continue up to the present moment. I propose a description of the imperfect - preterite opposition that includes finer distinctions of lexical aspect based on its constituent stage structure. These finer lexical aspectual distinctions allow the identification of an area of divergence in the use of the two forms in French, Spanish, and Romanian: the preterite was found to be used more widely with states in Romanian than in French and Spanish.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to contribute to the investigation of the semantics and syntax of Negative Words (N-words) in negative concord languages, with a focus on Spanish. An in-depth look into the syntactic behavior as well as into the meaning of terms such as nadie 'nobody', nada 'nothing', nunca 'never', etc., will provide some insight into the controversial nature of these words in the Romance languages as well as a better understanding of their peculiar pattern of distribution. On a larger picture, a thorough investigation of the semantics and syntax of these items will, in turn, contribute to a better understanding of the nature of negative polarity items in general. Thus, as I just anticipated, my conclusion is that N-words are in fact equivalent to negative polarity items, and that the phenomenon of negative concord, by which, in some languages, various negative items contribute only one semantic negation to a sentence, is a subcase of the crosslinguistic phenomenon of negative polarity licensing. In this respect, my analysis of N-words builds on the analyses of Bosque (1980) and Laka (1990). I base my conclusion that N-words are negative polarity items upon an extensive survey of comparative data coming from different Romance languages as well as from English, and I bring up new data and arguments supporting my view on the issue. In addition to arguing for the negative polarity nature of N-words, I also explore the extent to which syntactic operations are involved in the licensing of N-words, and I provide evidence showing that N-word licensing does not directly involve syntactic movement (contra most standard assumptions). Finally, in my investigation of the nature of N-words, I go beyond simply identifying them as negative polarity items. Specifically, I look deeply into the logicosemantic contribution of N-words, and I present arguments and data showing that N-words do not have either negative or any other kind of quantificational force. Rather, as I argue, they are better characterized as logicosemantic variables (in the sense of Kamp 1981 and Heim 1982.) In this regard, I depart from Bosque's (1980) and Laka's (1990) characterization of N-words. My view is more radical than theirs in that I do not just claim that N-words do not have inherent negative content, but also that they do not have any quantificational force of their own at all.

Full textAbstract:
Il était une langue… bien souvent pris à part par des considérations linguistiquement injustes, le corse fut historiquement transformé en en patois, de plus la langue dut faire face à différentes tentatives d’annihilation depuis plus de deux siècles. Cette situation linguistique défavorable est due à divers facteurs tels que la perte de la protection qui fut un temps apportée par le monde Italophone, l’entreprise d’une rude politique linguistique favorisant l’unité monolingue Française, les préférences sociopolitiques langagières dépendantes du contexte géographique et historique dans lequel le corse de retrouva englobé, qui favorisèrent tous son développement comme élément ‘low’ d’une situation diglossique qui ne sera pas améliorée par les effets du temps, un usage décroissant, ainsi que par le nonenseignement de la langue. Dans une époque où de multiples capacités linguistiques sont considérées comme une porte d’accès vers l’Union Européenne, et a fortiori vers le monde, nous tacherons de démontrer la position de choix que porte la langue corse dans l’entreprise d’élaboration de l’intercompréhension et/ou du plurilinguisme. La recherche porte essentiellement sur les positions de la langue dans le monde qui l’entoure, sur ses relations (que nous définirons come ‘Intermovements’ et ’Intramovements’), ainsi que la perception que ses utilisateurs ont des dites positions. Des premières traces de langues, en passant par la romanisation jusqu’au déchirement provoqué par le « glissement » de l’italien au français, nous montrerons sa position d’encrage dans le monde roman ainsi que la détérioration de son statut due au changement de langue référentielle. Viendra ensuite la position de la langue dans l’éducation insulaire qui est représentative des capacités d’échange avec le monde roman, ce qui pourrait faire du corse une langue d’ouverture vers le monde pour les futurs corsophones. Finalement, la question de l’utilisation de la langue au travers des pratiques d’intercompréhension et de plurilinguisme, pour laquelle nous nous devons de définir si elle est une qualité innée propre à l’individu bilingueOnce upon a language… as part of the unfair circumstances that are brought upon a language, Corsican was very often mistaken as a patois. Over the past century it had to resist varied attempts designed to eliminate it. This unfortunate situation was due to converging factors such as; the disappearance of an advantageous cocoon offered by the Italian world, the development of French monolingual language policy, sociopolitical language preferences inherent to a language in a low position in a diglossic system which resulted in the lowering of the user’s perception of the language’s status; and the amplification of these factors by the devastating effects of time, decreased usage, and the exclusion of Corsican from the domain of education. In a time where multiple language skills are regarded as a key skill to access the European Union and subsequently the world, Corsican has the potential to occupy a privileged position if its perception manages to shift from mere dialect to a tool for intercomprehension and plurilinguism. This research explores the positions of the Corsican language in its local and global contexts and the relationship (which we will define as Intramovements and Intermovements) and perception that Corsican speakers have of these positions. The study traces the early emergence of language on the island, to the arrival of Latin, to the slow and then abrupt shift from being ensconced in the Italian world to being the object of oppressive French linguistic policy, which resulted in deterioration in status. At the same time, the historical survey demonstrates how Corsican has always been anchored as a language in the romance world. The research then turns to the position of the Corsican language in the contemporary education system and how it has the potential to serve as a bridge to the romance language world and to become a language representing Corsican ‘openmindedness’ in the future. Finally, the thesis raises the question of whether the practice of the Corsican language by the islanders is a “natural” element in the bilingual toolkit for intercomprehension with other romance languages, especially Italian. We will see that Italy, its language and culture, have acquired a special status in the eye of the islanders, sometimes loved for the strength it represents and sometimes loathed due to fear of a process labeled Gabbanization

Full textAbstract:
This thesis investigates the relations between romance and texts of religious instruction in England between c.1170–c.1330, taking as its principal textual corpus the exceptionally rich literary traditions of insular French romance and religious writing that subsist during this period. It argues that romance is a mode which engages closely with religious and ethical questions from a very early stage, and demonstrates the discourses of opposition in which both kinds of text participate throughout the period. The thesis offers substantial readings of a number of neglected insular French religious texts of the thirteenth century, including Robert Grosseteste's Chasteau d'Amour, John of Howden's Rossignos, and Robert of Gretham's Miroir, alongside new readings of romances such as Gui de Warewic and Ipomedon. This juxtaposition of romance narrative and religious instruction sheds new light onto both kinds of text: romance emerges as a mode with deep-rooted didactic qualities; insular French religious literature is shown to be intensely concerned with the need to compete with romance’s entertaining appeal in literary culture. This oppositional discourse profoundly affects the form of instructional writing and romance alike. The discussion of the interactions between insular French romance and instructional literature presented here also serves as a new pre-history of Middle English romance. The final chapter of the thesis offers several new readings of texts from the Auchinleck manuscript, including the canonical romance Sir Orfeo and the neglected, puzzling Speculum Gy de Warewyk. These readings demonstrate that fourteenthcentury romance intelligently adapts the material it inherits from Francophone literature to a new cultural situation. In these acts of reformation, Middle English romance reveals itself as a discursive space capable of accommodating a wide range of ethical and ideological affiliations; the complex negotiations between romance and instructional literature in the preceding centuries are an important cultural condition for this widening of possibilities.

Fanton, Giovanni. "Doing Italian as a foreign language : investigating talk about language and culture in three British university classrooms." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2011. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/1561/.
Full textAbstract:
The study presented in this thesis focuses on teacher-student talk-in-interaction in three Italian classes for beginners taught by two teachers, one British and one Italian, in two British universities. The aims of the study are to: (1) investigate the views of language and of language teaching/learning that informed the teachers‟ practice; (2) identify the cultural worlds and images of Italian-ness constructed through the classroom talk; (3) examine the different identities the teachers assumed as they discussed language and culture. The research combines ethnographically-informed classroom observation, video-recording of classroom interaction with discourse analysis. It is guided by poststructuralist thinking and by Kramsch‟s (1993:9) vision of language teaching/learning as “social practice that is at the boundary of two or more cultures”. It reveals similarities in the composition of the classes. Both included international students and both teachers drew on the diverse funds of linguistic and cultural knowledge represented in their classes, creating „third places‟ for language teaching/learning. The research also reveals differences between the teachers – in their views of language, their representation of Italian „culture‟ and in the classroom identities they assumed. These differences are explained with reference to the teachers‟ linguistic and cultural backgrounds and their professional biographies.

Full textAbstract:
Aragonese is a minority endangered language used in the Alto Aragon area. Ayerbe is a town found in the Plana de Uesca in Alto Aragon, and therefore it is considered to belong to a geographical area where the use of the Aragonese language finds itself in a significant state of decline compared to the use of Castilian Spanish. This study examines the extent to which this is true. The objective was to conduct a questionnaire amongst residents in Ayerbe in order to explore their language use, their perceptions of the language, their linguistic awareness and their affinity to the concept of Aragonese identity. The results suggest that the Aragonese language in Ayerbe is more widely read and understood than was previously thought. This investigation also considers the processes of normalisation and normativisation that will be necessary for the revitalisation of the language.

Fernández-Sánchez, Javier. "Right dislocation as a biclausal phenomenon. Evidence from Romance languages." Doctoral thesis, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/10803/405410.
Full textAbstract:
Esta tesis versa sobre la sintaxis de la dislocación a la derecha (DD), con un enfoque empírico en las lenguas romances. En la DD, un constituyente oracional (el dislocado, o D) aparece desplazado en el margen derecho de una oración que, desde el punto de vista sintáctico, semántico y prosódico, es completamente independiente. A su vez, esta oración contiene un elemento pronominal débil, generalmente un clítico (K), que está coindexado con D.
La DD en lenguas romances ha sido objeto de riguroso estudio en numerosos trabajos. En el capítulo 2 se ofrece una revisión crítica de dichos estudios. A pesar de que las propuestas existentes son analíticamente bastante diversas, todas comparten la idea de que se trata de un fenómeno monoclausal.
Esta tesis difiere sustancialmente de esos acercamientos. Se propone que la DD tiene una estructura subyacente compuesta por dos oraciones semánticamente idénticas, donde una de las cuales, la que contiene D, ha sido reducida mediante un proceso de elipsis oracional, el cual queda legitimado por el paralelismo semántico entre ambas oraciones. En el capítulo 3 proporciono evidencia a favor de este nuevo enfoque, y exploro en detalle las consecuencias que implica.
Para dar cuenta de la relación entre K y D cualquier propuesta monoclausal tiene que postular la existencia de alguna estructura de doblado, adjunción o tratar K como un reasuntivo. En el capítulo 3 arguyo en contra de cualquier enfoque derivacional entre estos dos elementos, y defiendo que K y D sólo están relacionadas endofóricamente.
El análisis que se defiende en esta tesis trata D como una frase paratáctica con contenido oracional elidido. Propongo que la relación parentética queda establecida mediante una estructura coordinada asindética y semánticamente asimétrica.
El capítulo 4 trata de los efectos de islas en particular, y de fenómenos de localidad en general. Existe un cierto consenso de que la DD es sensible a las islas sintácticas. En la bibliografía sobre elipsis, la sensibilidad a las islas sintácticas se explica generalmente asumiendo que el residuo se desplaza al margen izquierdo del dominio elidido. En este capítulo se defienden dos ideas: (i) que los efectos de localidad de la DD son independientes del movimiento de D, y (ii) que no existen pruebas que efectivamente evidencien un supuesto desplazamiento de D dentro de la oración elidida. Respecto a (i), defiendo que la localidad es en realidad un corolario de una condición de economía que limita la altura a la que la coordinación puede aplicarse en contextos de elipsis. En cuanto a (ii), la falta de datos que legitimen la existencia de movimiento de D constituye un argumento empírico en contra de la opinión generalizada por la cual se asume que todos los residuos se desplazan al margen del dominio de la elipsis.
Finalmente, el enfoque biclausal favorece la unión un conjunto natural de fenómenos, a los cuales me refiero como fragmentos de la periferia derecha, y que incluyen las preguntas escindidas o los afterthoughts. Estas constricciones, así como su relación con la DD, se abordan en el capítulo 5. Es importante hacer notar que bajo un enfoque monoclausal de la DD, las más que notables similitudes entre estos fenómenos no pueden explicarse, de modo que deben quedar relegadas, lamentablemente, al plano de lo meramente anecdótico.
Después de una conclusión general, la tesis incluye un breve apéndice donde sugiero que el análisis que defiendo para la DD se puede extender de manera natural a la dislocación izquierda.This dissertation deals with the syntax of right dislocation (RD) with an empirical focus on Romance languages. In RD structures, a constituent (the dislocated phrase or D for short) appears displaced at the right edge of a syntactically, prosodically and semantically complete clause. This clause, in turn, contains a weak pronominal element, generally but not exclusively a clitic (K), which corefers with D. RD has received a fair amount of attention in the literature in Romance linguistics. Although the existing approaches are analytically somewhat diverse, they all share the assumption that RD is a monoclausal phenomenon. These are reviewed in Chapter 2 of the thesis, where I point out their merits and signal their empirical and conceptual shortcomings. This thesis constitutes a radical departure from previous analyses, and challenges the status of RD as a monoclausal phenomenon. Instead, I propose that RD constitutes an underlyingly biclausal phenomenon, where D is contained in a clause which is elided under identity with respect to the clause which hosts K. In chapter 3 I provide the evidence for this novel approach, and explores its consequences. The most serious issue with all monoclausal approaches is that they fail to account for the relation between K and D: these analyses must posit some sort of resumption, doubling, or ad hoc adjunction structure to account for the fact that these two elements are in the same clause. I thoroughly reject all of these proposals, and argue instead that the only link between D and K is purely endophoric. The analysis defended in this thesis thus treats D as a paratactic phrase with elided clausal structure. I propose that the parenthetical connection is mediated by means of a particular type of asyndetic, semantically asymmetric coordination structure. Chapter 4 deals with island effects in particular and locality issues in general. RD has always claimed to be sensitive to islands. In the literature on ellipsis, it is frequent to explain island sensitivity by positing movement of the remnant to a left peripheral position outside the domain of ellipsis. Chapter 4 makes two independent claims: (i) locality effects are explained independently of movement, and (ii) there does not exist evidence for movement of D inside the elided clause. With respect to (i), I claim that locality is a corollary of an economy condition that limits the height at which coordination can hold in elliptical contexts. As for (ii), the lack of evidence for movement of D provides an empirical argument against the widely accepted view that all remnants undergo movement outside of the ellipsis site. The analysis developed throughout this thesis brings together a natural set of phenomena that I refer to as right peripheral fragments, which include split questions and afterthoughts. These phenomena, and their relation to RD, are extensively discussed in chapter 5. I claim that under a monoclausal treatment of RD, the striking similarities between all of these phenomena cannot be captured in any simple way, and must instead be relegated into mere coincidence or anecdote. After a conclusion, an brief appendix follows where I suggest a natural extension of the analysis pursued in this dissertation to the phenomenon of clitic left dislocation.

Full textAbstract:
Languages that are genealogically or areally related often exhibit similar typological features due to their affinity. Large scale typological studies aiming to explain universal patterns and structural variation tend to exclude data from genealogical and areally related languages not to compromise the validity of the results. This typological study investigates the micro- and the macro-typological relation by examining negation features as well as word order of negative markers in relation to the verb in a number of genealogically and areally related Romance languages. The hypothesis is that the selected languages, despite their close relatedness, will exhibit a high degree of variation in regards to negation features. Most likely, not all of the non-standard languages will exhibit the same negation features as their standard language. The results show no correlation between genealogical relatedness and negation features. Moreover, they show that standardization has no demonstrable effect on the negation constructions employed by non-standard languages and that language contact is relevant in regards to the position of the negative marker and a language's position in Jespersen's cycle. The results support the theory that the diachronic evolution of negation is governed by a language's need to emphasize negation.

Sillitoe, Catherine. "A new model for Romance verbal clitics." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2017. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/7450/.
Full textAbstract:
Perlmutter (1971)'s seminal work on clitics has set much of the research model for ensuing studies. Despite enormous changes in linguistic theory over the intervening period, models in which clitic order is determined on the basis of grammatical person remains a key ingredient of most analyses. A key tenet of the current proposal is that clitic-forms may perform more than one syntactic function, reflected in their position within an elaborated series of feature projections including heads, not only for VP argument referents but also non-argumental datives and nominative actors. Surface clitic patterns are merely sequential spell-outs of this structure. There is no need for clitic re-ordering at a morphological or syntactic level. The proposed model requires no complex exclusion or conversion mechanisms nor sophisticated syntactic processes, whilst being iconic and, therefore, learnable without the need for prior knowledge e.g. Universal Grammar constraints. The model has no need of lexicalized units, treating all clusters as purely compositional sequences directly interpretable from context. Giving each 'case' its own position leads to a simple and coherent model readily applicable across Romance. The work addresses 1-/2-/3-/4-clitic clusters in French, Italian, Spanish, Occitan, Catalan, and Romanian in their various dialect forms, whilst briefly illustrating many other Romance dialects.

Wall, Georgia. "Consuming Italy : contemporary material culture and ethnographic approaches in modern languages." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2017. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/105141/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis has two interlinked objectives. One is to explore some of the meanings projected onto ideas of Italy in the UK in relation to Italian mobility patterns. The second is to argue for the development of the study of material culture and ethnographic approaches in contemporary Modern Languages research and teaching. Taking into account a range of ‘Italian stuff’; public spaces such as cafés and bars, narrative texts and recipe books, a celebrity figure, and drawing on personal narratives as recounted in interview, the thesis critically engages with the contemporary value of images of traditional Italy from a Modern Languages perspective. The aim is to practically demonstrate how ethnography and the study of material culture can be used to complement the conventional disciplinary emphasis of Modern Languages on critical analysis of written and visual texts and on linguistic competence. Drawing on the work of a variety of ethnographic theorists of the significance of the everyday and the unexpected, of the interplay between power and selfhood, and of class and the inscription of value, the thesis explores the ideals read into notions of Italy’s authenticity across different sites in terms of the tensions between the desirability of a grounded, local identity and the simultaneous need to be able to distance oneself from it, generational class difference and its enduring memory, the diversity of rural and urban experience, and self-understanding and expression. Via case-studies of different sites and an investigation into the pertinence of an ethnographic reflexivity in the context of language learning, it places relevant contemporary anthropological, linguistic and sociological theory in dialogue with existing calls for renewal from within Modern Languages to practice an ethnographic approach to the study of language and culture.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines Algernon Charles Swinburne’s work as a critic and creator of prose fiction, arguing that it deserves to play a larger role than it has done hitherto in our understanding of him as a writer. It considers a wide range of Swinburne’s prose, situating it in the intellectual movements of his time, and identifying recurrent themes and interests. Finally, it makes a case for a broader view of Swinburne that includes his literary criticism and imaginative prose. The first chapter discusses Swinburne’s prescient criticism of the Brontës and his suggestion that the novel ought to aspire to the status of high art. The second chapter reviews Swinburne’s assessment of Wilkie Collins, which uses the language of the stage to draw comparisons between sensation fiction and drama. Turning to Swinburne’s continental European influences, the third chapter establishes Baudelaire and Hugo as inspirations for Swinburne’s theory of aesthetic practice, though neither directly shaped his serious prose fiction. Gautier’s Mademoiselle de Maupin, which had a much more direct impact through its promotion of sexual and aesthetic autonomy, is discussed in Chapter Four. The fifth chapter studies Boccaccio and The Decameron as a significant source for Swinburne’s proposed Triameron and its surviving short stories. The sixth and seventh chapters focus on Laclos and Balzac, arguably the greatest influences on Swinburne’s novels. Laclos’s epistolary fiction and Balzac’s cycle of interlocking tales are immensely important for Swinburne’s theory of the novel and for his novels themselves. Chapter Eight is an extended study of Swinburne’s novel A Year’s Letters, which displays innovative epistolary form and incisive character studies. Chapter Nine interrogates Lesbia Brandon as a meditation on the youth of a poet and an avant-garde example of Swinburne’s hybrid, poetic prose.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau, despite living in the 18th century, it is different from their contemporaries by not look with optimism that the Enlightenment, considered the centuries of Lights, brought to society. As for the intellectual community the society came to an apex of moral progress and scientific developments with the Enlightenment Having as basic principle the reason, continuing the movement started by the Renaissance, that is, to use the rational knowledge against ignorance, superstition and belief. Rousseau says in his work entitled The Discourse on the sciences and the arts that science, the arts and letters alienate man from his natural state, and stifle their freedom. However, soon the philosopher is accused of contradiction, because even cursing the letters, launches the novel Julia or the New Heloise under the pretext of writing it with the end moral of protecting the readers of a society corrupted. The critique of the Rousseau was also for another reason: the novel was seen as a narrative frivolous and immoral because it is a tale of fiction, and as contrary to the rational order and the canons Aristotelian. In this way, it was necessary to analyze the emergence and the rise of the narrative romance within a cultural landscape and epistemological in contrast to classical aesthetics. Next, we investigated the entry and the originality of Rousseau in romanticism and the fracture with the classical aesthetic. Subsequently, we trace the trajectory of humanity corrupted by Rousseau in the discourse on the origin and the inequality between men, as well as the trajectory of the history of language until the language in the essay on the origin of languages, these two concepts of philosophy rousseauniana. And, finally, we tried to investigate the alleged paradox of Rousseau, like him, a critic of the letters, also be a writer of romance, and with the moral justification to retain people.
Foi na obra Discurso sobre as ciências e as artes que Rousseau fez o diagnóstico da sociedade do século XVIII: degenerada e corrompida. Na obra, Rousseau contrariao otimismo iluminista, no qual se acreditava que a Razão era o fio condutor que levaria a humanidade ao ápice do progresso moral e científico, e dá continuidade ao movimento iniciado pelo Renascimento, utilizando o conhecimento racional contra a ignorância, a superstição e a crença. Rousseau aponta vários sintomas que ilustram o nível de corrupção da sociedade, sendo um deles a utilização da linguagem na convenção social. Entretanto, entre suas obras está a publicação do romance Júlia ou a Nova Heloísa, em que, no Prefácio a Narciso, o filósofo se posiciona sobre a acusação de contrariar os próprios princípios, ou seja, ele se utiliza da própria escrita que critica, pois tudo indica que há uma justificativa moral, que é proteger os povos da corrupção alcançada. Nesse sentido, procuramos investigar primeiramente o surgimento e ascensão do romance dentro de uma perspectiva histórica e epistemológica, em contraposição à estética clássica. Depois, investigamos a criatividade e a originalidade de Rousseau no Pré-romantismo. Em seguida, remontamos a trajetória da humanidade corrompida, feita por Rousseau na obra Discurso sobre a origem e os fundamentos da desigualdade entre os homens, bem como a trajetória da história da língua até a linguagem, na obra Ensaio sobre a origem das línguas. Finalmente, tratamos de analisar o suposto paradoxo de Rousseau, de como ele, um crítico das letras, também se tornou um escritor de romance, e como a linguagem do romance é capaz de preservar os povos numa sociedade já corrompida.

Full textAbstract:
The Italian romance epic of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, with its multitude of characters, complex plots, and roots in medieval Carolingian and Arthurian chivalric romances, was a form popular with courtly and urban audiences. In the hands of writers such as Boiardo, Ariosto, and Tasso, works of remarkable sophistication that combined high seriousness and low comedy were created. Their works went on to influence Cervantes, Milton, Ronsard, Shakespeare, and Spenser.
In this volume, instructors will find ideas for teaching the Italian Renaissance romance epic along with its adaptations in film, theater, visual art, and music. An extensive resources section locates primary texts online and lists critical studies, anthologies, and reference works.

Smit, Sarah Johanna. "At home in Fanon: Queer romance and mixed solidarities in contemporary African fiction." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/23021.
Full textAbstract:
Throughout the recent iterations of student activism that have gripped South African universities, Frantz Fanon has been continuously disinterred. But the figure of Fanon often remains both abstract and plural within its articulations - interpretations of his body of work performing sometimes only partial allegiances to the whole. This means that centralising a Fanon within political discourse stands to reproduce the losses implicated in his mythification, rather than to recover new critical imports in his work. In other words, the simplification of Fanonist rhetoric fails to deal with the "un-political" dimensions of Fanon. As such the more troubling of Fanon's work, namely Black Skin, White Masks (1952), is often left un-interrogated, while The Wretched of the Earth (1961) is read like a manifesto for purposive change. Black Skin, White Masks it seems is deemed "not radical enough" because of what appears to be a problematic preoccupation with 'love and understanding.' In the following intervention, I argue that what makes this centrality of 'love and understanding' so unpalatable to radical activists is a misappropriation of Fanon's formulation of desire. This is in part, I believe, one of the flaws of Fanon setting up the dynamic of racialised desire within cisgender, heteronormative models for potential interracial relationships - "The Woman of Colour and the White Man" and "The Man of Colour and the White Woman." Hence, I consider what queering these relationships does to the way in which we read the political dimensions of Black Skin, White Masks, and whether or not this allays the allegory of revolutionary solidarity of the generic teleology of the heteronormative romance. The object of this thesis is to elucidate what possibilities for political solidarity are generated through the queered dynamic of interracial love, explored in the literature of the contemporary African diaspora. New African writers take seriously what Fanon recognised as "The Pitfalls of National Consciousness," by emptying out the category of the nation and engaging with the intersections of a trans-national, trans-gender and trans-racial politics. To demonstrate the ways in which a queer analysis of interracial romance might reimagine a raced identity politics, I analyse novels produced by members of the contemporary African diaspora, whose works deal with mixed race identity. Through my reading of Helen Oyeyemi's The Icarus Girl (2005) and Boy, Snow, Bird (2014), Yewande Omotoso's Bom Boy (2011), and Chris Abani's The Secret History of Las Vegas (2014), I hope to demonstrate that contemporary African literature is concerned with the formation of an identity that estranges the category of blackness from itself through its entanglement with a queer identity politics.

Reid, Joshua. "Romance of Translation: Tasso’s Gerusalemme Liberata in the Elizabethan Twilight." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2017. https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu-works/2855.
Full textAbstract:
The translations of Tasso’s Gerusalemme liberata by Richard Carew (1594) and Edward Fairfax (1600) import the hybrid genre of the Italian romance epic into the evolving literary polysystem of the English Renaissance. These two significant translations present an intriguing struggle between fidelity to the source text and freedom, which mirrors the friction between epic and romance at the heart of the Gerusalemme liberata. This friction takes shape most clearly in the treatment of the power dynamics of the crusaders vis-à-vis Godfrey and in the translation of the ‘forma altera’ of Armida. While Carew attempts an ‘epic’ translation conforming to the source text, creating a Gerusalemme conquistata-type of translation, Fairfax submits to the allure of Armida and to the romance of translator errancy. To translate this unique hybrid genre is to encounter translation’s process double; in a fundamental sense, translation is romance, and the romance epic is translation.

Full textAbstract:
This paper analyses the translation methods used in translating a colloquial, culture-specific text containing allusions and informal language. The analysis focuses on the difficulties arising in the translation of culture-specific phenomena and aspects such as slang and cultural references as well as allusions and language play. The theoretical framework used for structuring the analysis is supported by the theories of Newmark (1988), Nida (1964), Schröter (2005), Reiss (1989), Pym (2010) and Leppihalme (1994), among others. The results indicate that the translation of culturally and connotatively charged words require knowledge and understanding of languages and cultures alike. Further, the results indicate that concept of a word or concept being ‘untranslatable’ may originate from such lack of understanding or knowledge and that further research on the subject is needed.

Full textAbstract:
Fray Luis de Leon was incarcerated for nearly five years by the Spanish Inquisition, on the basis of charges brought against him by antagonistic colleagues who disagreed with his scholarly approach. Through a systematic consideration of his writings in light of the sociohistorical climate that gave rise to disputes between him and his detractors, it is evident that a number of themes run through Fray Luis' prose production which can be related directly to his experience as an inmate in the Inquisition's cells. These topoi, found throughout the Salmantine friar's prose, are present also in his poetry. Therefore, by analyzing those prose passages that have a direct bearing on his trial before the Inquisition and by relating those passages to his poetry, we shall gain access to unique avenues of interpretation. The results will offer new insights into Fray Luis' poetry that are not readily apparent through other methods of analysis. This study will afford us an opportunity to see Fray Luis and his works in great detail from a perspective that has not yet been explored.

Full textAbstract:
En esta disertacion mostramos que Ramon Perez de Ayala es un autor humoristico, es decir, un autor que se aproxima al mundo tanto criticamente como de modo tolerante y afectivo. El impetu critico lo impulsa a escudrinar su entorno y a desvelar lo que se halla tras lo aparente. Su postura tolerante lo ayuda a comprender las contradicciones que percibe y a preconizar que todo y todos tienen algo que aportar al mundo, donde el observa la armonia caudalosa, concepto que explica la presencia de todas las ideas y las personalidades, infinitamente enfrentadas entre si. Su arte constituye un intento de recrear este estado de "armonia desarmonica", como se aprecia en la riqueza de personajes conflictivos, incongruentes e imprevisibles que crea. Para explicar la manera en que Ayala se aproxima al mundo y al arte, en base a sus ideas y a las que Luigi Pirandello vierte en L'umorismo , configuramos la nocion de acercamiento humoristico . Esta se apuntala en la distincion entre dos conceptos: lo comico, que se refiere a las discrepancias que se revelan a raiz del escudrinamiento critico del mundo y el humorismo, que es la tolerancia de las discrepancias, nacida de la observacion critica. Nuestra nocion consta de dos fases. En la primera, dominada por lo comico, se escudrina a las personas. Surge la risa. El humorismo predomina en la segunda fase, en que se llega a comprender el origen de las contradicciones que se percibe. La risa da paso a una sonrisa cervantina--confortadora y comprensiva. Mediante el estudio del acercamiento humoristico intentamos ofrecer una imagen de Perez de Ayala diferente a la del rigido moralizador que predomina en la critica.

A partir daí, buscamos compreender a evolução do gênero no Brasil para, com isso, direcionar nossa análise ao romance brasileiro contemporâneo produzido nas últimas duas décadas. Por fim, realizamos a análise dos romances Relato de um certo Oriente (1989), de Milton Hatoum; Eles eram muitos cavalos (2001), de Luiz Ruffato; e Lorde (2004), de João Gilberto Noll, a fim de explorar três diferentes abordagens literárias vinculadas aos elementos tempo, espaço e linguagem. Examinamos também as relações entre romance e modernidade, bem como a representação de aspectos desta no romance brasileiro contemporâneo. Entre os diversos autores consultados para fundamentação dos estudos sobre teoria e história do romance estão Georg Lukács, Walter Benjamin, Ferenc Fehér, Lucien Goldmann, Mikhail Bakhtin, Erich Auerbach, Ian Watt, Marthe Robert, Franco Moretti e Arnold Hauser, entre outros.We look into the Brazilian contemporary novel in a social and historical way in this thesis.

Die Notwendigkeit, die sprachlichen Lehrinhalte zu reduzieren, ohne die Äußerungsmöglichkeiten der Schüler auf bestimmte Themen, Situationen oder Absichten zu beschränken, wird belegt durch Lücken, z.T. überhöhte, z.T. in anderer Hinsicht korrekturbedürftige Pensen in Grammatiken für den Französischunterricht, in Lehrplänen und Lehrwerken.
Der zweite Teil der Arbeit enthält präzise Empfehlungen für die chronologische Anordnung und Gruppierung der Lehrinhalte, da den Lehrplan- und Lehrwerkautoren bisher auch für die Planung der Progression verläßliche Grundlagen fehlten.

Jenkins, Rommany. "The origin and role of sospiro in the poetry of Guido Cavalcanti." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2017. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/7400/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis focuses on the keyword sospiro (‘sigh’) in the poetry of Guido Cavalcanti. It reads this word in relation to the lyric poetry of Occitania and Italy, and medical literature related to lovesickness. It approaches Cavalcanti’s work in this way in order to avoid the distortion of a Dantean lens, as part of a trend since the anniverary of his death in 2000 towards considering Cavalcanti’s work on its own terms. Inspired by Raymond Williams’ Keywords, this thesis looks beyond the familiar presence of sospiro in lyric poetry, revealing a word acting as a locus of innovative expression. It finds that while the sigh is generally regarded as a literary commonplace, it can in fact tell us much about the society and culture in which it is used. Sospiro is then traced in medical literature, charting its evolution as a symptom of the disease of lovesickness. Against this backdrop, a reading of sospiro in Cavalcanti’s poetry is given which argues for the need to listen to both the lyric and medical contexts when interpreting the role of this word. As such, this thesis offers a consideration of these two contexts in parallel, through sospiro, for the first time.
