Boof-Vermesse, Isabelle. "Stratégies du récit dans l'oeuvre de Raymond Chandler." Paris 3, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA030118.
Full textStarting from the generic context, and in particular with the help of his theoretical writings, the aim of this dissertation is to show how chandler uses the conventions of the "formula" to transcend them and eventually create literature out of the limits of what can be called "paraliterature". After having established the postulates of the genre, which favour game and enigma rather than narrative proper, the narrative revolution worked out by the hard-boiled detective novel will be specified as a tension between realism, in particular in the treatment of the city of los angles, and lyrical romance, based on the use of an eminently rhetoric voice. The chandlerian melodrama comes then to be defined in terms of defamiliarisation, distance, and grotesque, relayed by a higly marked figurality, the tropes of which will be studied in detail. The narrative attitude stemming from the style and the narrative structure is then to be set against the traditional suspicion of american literature towards women: the ambivalence towards the feminine is the metaphor for the activity of the text which feeds on contradictions rather than solutions

Full textThe myth of the private eye tends to distort our view of the character that was created by hammett and chandler, the founders of the "hard-boiled" detective story. The private eye has a double origin : he is both sherlock holmes and nick carter. His methods have nothing to do with the traditional detective's in so far as reason and logic are no longer his favourite weapons. He resorts to action and to the poker-player's intuition. The plot is no longer essential. No "solution" can be found in hammett's and chandler's novels. The portrait of the private eye brings into light both his "anti-hero" aspect, his cynical pose and the idealism that the pose is meant to hide. He resembles hemingway's tough guy whose misogyny he shares. His social role is unequivocally reactionary since he contributes to maintaining the social status quo by preserving the ruling classes' respectability. Hammett and chandler provide us with a "realistic" vision of american society. Consequently, they broach themes which used to be reserved for "serious" literature. The quality of their style set them apart from the writers of escape literature. Hammett created a style whose main feature was baldness. Influenced by behaviorism, hammett describes behaviours and resorts to an "external" technique. For a time, chandler was his "disciple" but gradually he abandoned hammett's technique which no longer suited him. For the character of the private eye has evolved from the continental op to philip marlowe. Such an evolution can be accounted for by chandler's background and personality but the evolution of economic and social conditions must also be taken into account. Hammett wrote most of his books during the prosperity whereas chandler wrote his after the great depression. The chivalrous and altruistic marlowe succeeded to the cynical continental op. A similar evolution is to be found in hemingway's tough guys

Full textThe image of the hard-boiled detective is very different from the one of the classical detective story protagonist. Dashiell hammett founded the hard-boiled tradition, creating professional detectives as well as non-detective heroes. Raymond chandler followed him with his unique private-eye character. From that rises the archetype of the "tough guy", the modern knight and his (in) quest. Some biographical landmarks are given in relation with the characterization of the hero. There is also the context of narration ; the works of gerard genette are the main methodological reference for its analysis. Language is seen as the privileged weapon of the hero, then from the angle of humor and slang. The novels adaptations for the screen are briefly examined. The third part depicts the setting (urban and rural) and the human context (the different social classes and ethnies with whom the hero is confronted). Moreover, the private detective has to deal with three kinds of women and he experiences an ambiguous relationship with men. The symbolic aspect of violence is then studied. At last the question of ideology is posed in order to understand how the myth of the tough guy can be applied to the image of the detective created by hammett and chandler

Full textTendo em vista a importante contribuição dos estudos culturais e literários para o aprofundamento do debate sobre as narrativas policiais norte-americanas, este estudo pretende levantar singularidades, rupturas e questões de masculinidade(s) associadas à literatura hardboiled, de modo a fundamentar uma investigação de sua reverberação na obra de Rubem Fonseca. Para tal fim, parte-se, principalmente, dos estudos de masculinidade hegemônica empreendidos por R.W. Connell e seus comentadores, e da análise de três dos maiores expoentes fundadores do gênero, Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler e Jim Thompson. Considerando essa fundação da literatura policial norte-americana, serão então analisadas quatro obras protagonizadas pelo personagem Mandrake, ―O Caso F.A‖, ―Dia dos Namorados‖, ―Mandrake‖ e o romance A Grande Arte. Pretende-se, assim, observar como o autor se vale dessa tradição da literatura policial, e de suas implicações com questões de masculinidade(s), para criar uma obra de tamanha potência crítica, estilística e política.
Taking into consideration the important contribution of literary and cultural studies to the deepening of debate about North-American detective narratives, this study intends to assemble singularities, disconnections and contemporary masculinity issues associated with hard-boiled literature, aiming to substantiate an investigation of its influence in Rubem Fonseca‘s work. In order to do so, we take as a starting point the studies of hegemonic masculinities, by R.W. Connell and her commentators, and the analysis of three of the genre‘s founding fathers, Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler and Jim Thompson. Considering the foundation of North-American detective novel, four works which has Mandrake as its main character will be analyzed : ―O Caso F.A‖, ―Dia dos Namorados‖, ―Mandrake‖ and the novel A Grande Arte. Seeking to observe how the author utilizes the hard-boiled tradition and its implications in masculinities issues in order to create a work of enormous critical, stylistic and political potency.
