Roy, Aurélie. "Surviving childhood : trauma and maturation in J.D. Salinger's "The catcher in the Rye", S.E. Hinton's "The outsiders", and Stephen Chbosky's "The perks of being a wallflower"." Master's thesis, Université Laval, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11794/28334.
Full textThis thesis examines the psychological and social repercussions of trauma on a child’s maturation process using three landmark novels of the Bildungsroman genre, J.D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye, S.E. Hinton’s The Outsiders, and Stephen Chbosky’s The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Grounding my analysis on the findings of trauma theorists Cathy Caruth, Shoshana Felman, Ronald Granofsky, and Dominick LaCapra, and psychiatrists Dori Laub and Judith Lewis Herman, I demonstrate that trauma can occupy two contradictory but inextricably linked functions in the maturation process, that of both hindering and catalyzing a child’s coming-of-age. I demonstrate that Holden Caulfield, Ponyboy Curtis, and Charlie all display behaviours that suggest the paralyzing nature of trauma and its initial ability to prevent the child from growing up. I then argue that trauma, or the acceptance of one’s traumatic past, has the potential to accelerate the maturation process. My study also highlights the importance of the testimonial process in the recovery from trauma and the character's ensuing maturity. Because of the omnipresence of testimony in young people’s literature, its ramifications and implications are explored in each chapter of this thesis. Through the use of close reading, I study each work independently, evaluate each character’s individual response to trauma, and establish the thematic vocabulary and the interlinks that allow a conversation between the three novels. Although the studied works propose different types of traumatic negotiation and response, each novel is dialogically linked with the other. This thesis offers new readings of each novel, while establishing insightful comparisons between the three works. The intent of this thesis is therefore to contribute to the assessment of each narrative and to a general understanding of the role of trauma in young people’s literature.

Full textThe thesis studies the novel of formation that emerged in its feminine variant during the Franco era in Spain. Through the analysis of a corpus of novels including works of Spanish female writers of the 1940-1950’s, this study focuses on the specific procedures of the fictionalisation of female development in a genre, thought initially for a male protagonist (the Bildungsroman in the 18th century). This work also analyzes the ideological stakes of this kind of novel in the context of the authoritarian Franco dictatorship, which exacerbates the dialectic between the individual and the world and denies to women any active role in society. These literary works depict heroines who rebel against a patriarchal society and choose freedom by refusing to see their lives reduced to the household economy. At a time when censorship was law, the novel of development intended to inspire through the literature the expectations of new generations and offered new female models at odds with the official discourse. Largely imbued with autofiction and beyond the only issue of women’s condition, these novels were manifestos for freedom in a political environment that was trying to annihilate any independent thinking

Full textMany political scientists perceived the recent history of africa as the exact replica of the political process in south america. Post-independent africa indeed experiences identical sociopolitical difficulties with latin american countries : social inequelities, tremendow debt, political subordination, army-controlled political power, etc. . . And those are signs of the failure of politics in both continent which generated a profuse production of literary works, espacially in the field of novel-writing where the dominant feature invariously comes out to be the military dictators. Every literature is the product and the image of the environnement in which it take rooks. This identity of inspiration is therefore not amazing, and such a community of fate has mather favoured the rise of what is called by some people a "thrid word literature". Somehow, novelists in both contients declaim against established military power and demigrate dictators, for they see their works as a contribution to the life of their respective societies. Moreaver, they continually adopt similar literary attitudes. Indeed, if sembene ousmaner or ferdinand oyono make you think of zola or balzac, it is their latin american countes ports that the 1980 ies' african prose weiters take up

Full textFrom 1945 to 1950, the American Novel promulgates his presence on the French literary scenery and appears as a model beyond compare to renew the French novel. Our thesis is dedicated to this American moment of the French novel that opens at the Liberation. The publication of Americanized novels increases and creates a constant interest from the literary critics, sometimes enthusiast, sometimes outraged by the consequences of this “new-blood” injection in the French novel’s veins. “Legitimate” novelists, such as Sartre, Des Forêts, Vailland, are actually as attracted by this miraculous resource as the detective novel writers, such as Simenon, Malet, Meckert, who are the first willing to benefit from the hard boiled success. Simultaneously, two different ways to seize the American substance are appearing: the “serious” novelists embrace it briefly, but go from fascination to disappointment; as to the detective novel writers, they transform a sheer imitation reflex into fertile assimilation. Yet, all those novels have not often been studied. Our work is aiming to expose this American path, taken by a vast panel of French novelists, in an even more so profitable manner since they used the American material as a starting point, an experimentation opportunity, but also as a way to assert their own fictional identity. By reexamining the French novel’s debt towards the one from across the Atlantic, we hope to confer all its significance to this dazzling American moment that establishes the transition between the changes made by the avant gardes in the twenties and the ones undertaken by the New Novelists
Vuillet, Hélène. "Les métamorphoses d'Hermès : Motif secret et secrets d'un motif dans la tétralogie romanesque de Thomas Mann, Joseph et ses frères." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA040137.
Full textEven if his name does not appear anywhere, Hermès has his place in the novel of Thomas Mann Joseph and his brothers. But only Hermès, the Greek god, had been seen up to now. This study shows that another Hermès haunts the tetralogy, Hermès-Trismégiste, the father of the hermetic or alchemical tradition. After having revealed the presence of this other Hermès and the function of the hermetic metaphor in the framework, the analysis explores the reasons for the fascination of the author for this theme. It would appear that this one is systematically invoked in the creative imagination of the writer whenever there is a question of education. Because Joseph is the only education novel that Mann managed to write, a novel which examines all the meanings of generic designation: education of the hero, education of the reader, education of the author to the benefit of the formation of the work. Why then is the hermetic metaphor, in spite of its extraordinarily expressive quality, so discrete in this novel?
Helly, Barbara. "The Covenant de James A. Michener : un roman populaire américain sur l'histoire de l'Afrique du Sud." Rennes 2, 2001. http://www.theses.fr/2001REN20021.
Full textWhy are James A. Michener's historical sagas so successful ? Is it because the general public is fond of their thrilling taste or because the books successfully mix facts and fiction ? An analysis of Michener's novel on the history of South Africa, " The Covenant ", can help answer this question. For Western readers, South Africa is a faraway land which, in a few years, has switched from political struggle against apartheid to sanitary struggle against AIDS. But when the book was published in 1980, the Afrikaners' nationalist power, which relied on the gold and diamond mine landowners, was locked in segregation and repression policies. In " The Covenant " James A. Michener gives his own interpretation of the relations between Blacks and Whites, Bushmen and Dutchmen, Boers and Xhosa, Voortrekkers and Zulus, and finally between Afrikaners and Englishmen, throughout history. To study " The Covenant " is to observe what the American author has selected from a mass of historical facts in order to explain the evolution of South African society. In pursuing our analysis, we will realize that his choices are intimately linked to his political and philosophical ideas. But we will also see that the well-kown specialist of historical sagas stretching through hundreds and even thousands of years, could rely on a whole team whose job was to help bring the South African project to a successful end. Discovering the religious and nationalist significations of " The Covenant ", we will also understand how this good example of contemporary literature was written thanks to a combination of money and skills

Full textValadié, Flora. "Travail de l'image, critique de l'histoire dans l'écriture americaine contemporaine. John Edgar Wideman, Richard Powers, Paul Auster." Thesis, Paris 3, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA030132.
Full textAuster’s, Power’s and Wideman’s novels are wrought by images and haunted by history. Page after page, photographers, painters, visionary onlookers, or blind witnesses testify to the might of images that force the gaze to confront the past. Entering an image also means entering history and history, in its turn, reveals itself under the form of photographic, pictorial, or verbal images. However, the image, whether literal or literary, pits its own temporality against the time of history : a tenuous conjunction of past and present, a simultaneous combination of disconnected temporalities, the image, by its very heterogeneity, disrupts the flow of history. In the six novels by Paul Auster, Richard Powers, and John Edgar Wideman that make up the corpus of this dissertation, the image then is the crux where chronological time is converted into imaginary time; through the image, clockset time is suspended while the time of fiction flows in. By rearranging time, the image politicizes the writings of these three authors: because it exceeds historicist and positivist discourses, the image blows apart the founding myths of America and the premises of a biased history. In Powers’s novels, it debunks the discourse of progress, in Wideman’s it blurs the code of colours , and drains the symbol of its consensual strength in Auster’s. The image opens up a convulsive time within chronological time and by its sheer form, commits the gaze that rests on it. Because of its explosive and fictional strength, the image begets a community that no longer communes around myths and symbols but experiences itself as fictional ; a lingering image, a remnant and a supply of meaning, it makes the community inoperative, as it undermines narrative closure and ruins any notion of an organic whole, thus crafting new forms of poetic commonality
Collado, Michael. "Paco Ignacio Taibo II et le roman policier : de la défaite de la justice à la gloire de l'énigme." Montpellier 3, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003MON30043.
Full textThe crime novel is the imaginary illustration of a constant victorious justice in its fight against crime and its very relative success in Mexico proves that mexican society cannot be the gathering place of such an ideology. Nevertheless, P. I. Taibo II managed, contrary to historical logic, to reconcile the genre with the country. Through Cosa Fácil, La vida misma and Cuatro manos, an axiological jamming, better suited to collective mexican mentalities, gradually replaces crime novel manicheanism. At the same time, the enigma, following the sterilisation course of the investigation theme, disappears from plots. This phenomenon takes place when the enigmatic structure is getting more intricated. Therefore, Cuatro manos represents the defeat of the justice and the structural quintessence of the enigma. It is an attempt to litterary appropriateness and reorganisation of the destructured vision resulting from postmodern communicational abundance
