Rea, Giorgio. "Imagines pictae. Il ritratto nella pittura romana." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018SORUL070.
Full textThis project aims to reconstruct the development of painting portraits in Rome and the use of these types of image employed for Romans, from the Republic until the end of the third century AD. The portrait painted in Roman art follows the cultural changes and the limits of the Empire, mingling with artistic traditions from different cultural areas. The study of this subject, which presents profound difficulties, is often wrongly considered as a sub-argument of the theme of the statuary portrait in Rome. The painted portrait deserves a study as an independent subject because in Antiquity the painting was "l’arte guida". The old painting is now little known because most of the works have been lost and it makes the painted portrait difficult to reconstruct. The lack of archaeological sources relating to the genesis of this art form is filled by some Greek and Roman literary sources. For the imperial period archaeological evidence is more abundant, as in the case of Fayum portraits, which, however, are limited to the province of Egypt, or frescoes found in several important archaeological sites in the Mediterranean (the more valuable were found at Herculaneum, Pompeii and Stabies, but also in Syria)
Andrès, Sarah. "L'hermès à portrait dans l'Occident romain : fonctions, contextes et significations." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018SORUL124.
Full textThis study aspires to acheive a catalog of portrait herms in the Roman West in order to apprehend the semantic meaning of this original figurative support. Erected since achairc times by the crossroads and doors of greek cities, herms become, under roman influence, pedestals for portraits and not only representations of divinity. Those portraits can be divided into two iconographical categories : retrospective ones reproducing features of historical figures such as Homer and Menander, and those of private citizens, sometimes dedicated to their Genius and raised in the atrium of their house. More than a simple stylistical and iconographical analysis of this corpus, this study tries to give an historical and cultural reading of thoses sculptures, from the workshop to their exhibition contexts. This approach must allow the depiction of all the actors involved in thoses dedications, the clarification of thematic choices as of the reasons for choosing these abbreviated images, the definition of their place in the private space of the Roman villas in the context of domestic cults or that of the otium

Full textBentolila-Fanon, Lauren. "Balzac et les visages du mal : corps et corporation du crime." Thesis, Toulouse 2, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018TOU20045.
Full textThe 19th century saw the flourishing of discourses on bloody crime : as doctors examining bodies inside out were looking for the symptoms of internalized evil, literature contemplated the violent characters with a fear-tinted admiration resulting from the convergence of ancient fears, historical traumas from the French Revolution and the Empire, and epistemological methods. Scientific etiology and novels gave birth to criminal types, and Evil took on attributes and features which defined the criminal body as both one of singularity and share. Violence became recognizable, thus developing characteristics of its own according to the principles of inclusion and exclusion. Balzac saw the developing of these representations, and his work is therefore teeming with criminals and assassins of all sorts who bear witness to the novelist’s acquaintance with the concerns of his time. In the light of the theories and fiction on crime, this thesis offers a study of the novelist's assassins in order to gauge their influence on Balzacian literature. Indeed, a comparison between a scientific and fictional syllabus of the first half of the 19th century shall help one determine how and to what extent the Balzacian criminal embodies a culpability wavering between marginality and association

Full textIn their attempt to explore the human condition as influenced by nature and by truth, the romantic authors develop the literary potential of the portrait. The individual portrait reflects the countless changes taking place in a society in transition, breaking with the idealisation of the preceding centuries : recognised social classes, flaws, outdated features, past and present, the facts and acts of everyday life. . . The collective portrait henceforth deals with the mass - the mob, or the common people : two notions which had yet to be clearly defined. It brings to an end the regal laudatory portrait. The portrait of the monument, which achieves the status of character by means of personification, introduces a new perspective : that of National History, in which the individual identifies himself or herself. The portrait is in a state of constant evolution, witness to the society of which it is a feature
Na sua tentativa de explorar o ser humano sob o signo do natural e da verdade, os escritores românticos desenvolvem as possibilidades literarias do retrato. O retrato individual segue as numerosas inovações deixadas em aberto pela sociedade em plena mutação acabando com a idealização dos séculos precedentes : classes sociais reconhecidas, fealdade(s), velhice, passado e presente, factos e gestos no quotidiano. . . O retrato colectivo abrange doravante o “número” através da multidão/povo, duas noções ainda não bem delimitadas. Provoca o fim do retrato laudativo real. O retrato do monumento que acede ao estatuto de personagem com a personificação introduz uma nova perspectiva, a da História Nacional na qual o indivíduo identifica-se ele próprio. O retrato está em constante evolução, testemunha da sociedade na qual está inserido

Full textThis particular PhD research project focuses on the representation of jewellery on “Fayum portraits” and mummy masks from Roman Egypt. Even though Roman mummy masks and the so called “Fayum portraits” have been the subject of numerous research in recent years, a detailed study on the individuals’ jewellery is still missing up to this date. This is particularly regrettable because females on these portraits are almost exclusively wearing Roman-type jewellery. A chronological order that includes a precise dating must be obtained by the female hairstyles that have been influenced by Roman fashion dispersed in the Roman Empire through representations in form of busts, coins and paintings of the Empresses and members of the imperial families. Consequently, this chronological order allows us to identify the various changes in the jewellery fashion throughout the imperial dynasties of the first three centuries A.D. A goal of the chronological classification of jewellery in the art of Roman Egypt is to help future researchers to date jewellery more precisely, in particular – which is quite common for jewellery - when their provenance is unknown or imprecise. The results will be complemented by representations of jewellery in art from other regions of the Empire but also by actual dated finds. Finally, all these factors will help to obtain a better understanding of Roman jewellery fashion, its distribution and even more which types were “à la mode” at what particular time

Full textMore than a study of these very portraits, more than an analysis of jean-pierre chabrol's works of fiction, this doctoral thesis is, above all, a reflection on the historical novel in general. Consequently, each character studied here, whether real or created, is examined in three different ways: first, through a close examination of the historical aspects to determine if the character portrayed by the novelist bears any resemblance to what professional historians tell us of the past; then through an examination of the narrative aspects to see how the great figures of the past or the heroes imagined by the writer enter the narrative or, conversely, history; finally, through an examination of the ideological bias with which each protaganist, whatever his or her status may be, is necessarily loaded; all of this being naturally and closely linked to the two principles expressed by jean-claude rioux; the phagocytosis of history by fiction, and the historicisation of fiction by history. These two principles are sufficient (sufficiently rich/strong ) to account for the historical novel, since they allow us to view the different ways in which cohesion between historical discourse and fictional discourse is made possible; two discourses which must -for a matter of balance and unity -fuse together seamlessly even though they are different in content and aim. This work is not, of course, a theory of the historical novel- this being impossible as yet - but a general survey of the knowledge we have of this particular and much-debated genre

Full textDivided between several fields of research ( art history, philology and epigraphy), the study of statuary monuments of the governors of the eastern provinces of the late roman period (between the end of the third and the sixth century anno domini) deserves an averal analysis of the avalable sources. Such a study is proposed by this research which lists in a catalogue arranged by location, the inscribed bases and statues which originated in such monuments. The corpus which has thus been built up is then the subject of an analysis. This takes into account the most updated research on portraiture, which no longer considered the portraits as an image resembling an individual but as the materialisation of the person which is socialy an individual. This study therefore tackles different fields in which the social personality of these byzantine governors has been expressed and which can be perceived on their sculpture portraits : politics, economics, culture and religion

Full textThe study presented as part of this thesis looks at graeco-roman portraits of children who were identified as carrier of a hairstyle which was qualified as “Horuslocke”, “the Horus sidelock”, during the first research on this topic in the 1950s. This hairstyle is characterised by a long lock of hair, either let loose or braided, separated from the rest of the hair which can be either long, short, or even shaved. The sidelock is generally represented on the right side of the head. However, it can also appear on the left side, on the back or on the top of the head. As its terminology implies, this hairstyle would originate from Egypt, where it existed since the Ancient Empire (2600 B.C.-2200 B.C.). Its use spread outside of the Egyptian sphere from the 3rd century B.C. It reached its peak in the 3rd century A.D in the Roman Empire. The evolution of this symbol during the graeco-roman period was subjected to different interpretations which punctuate the historiography devoted to it: age indicator playing a role in the rite of passage, sign of a cult initiation -more specifically in the Isiac cult, identity marker, or sometimes indication of a social status. At the crossroad between the History of Art and the History of Religion, the study of this portraits puts into light a few thematics, from the representation of children in Antiquity, to their places and roles in cults, particularly in the Isiac cult, along with questions regarding the initiation and practice of cultual offering in the graeco-roman world. Through this iconographic pattern, a part of the cultural and social identity of the children is unveiled

Full textDans l'ensemble de son œuvre, Milan Kundera tente de dépasser le roman de type balzacien, devenu selon lui le modèle convenu du genre romanesque. Afin d'y parvenir, il redéfinit les codes hérités du XIXe siècle, basés sur l'illusion fictionnelle. Dans Le livre du rire et de l'oubli, L'insoutenable légèreté de l'être et L'immortalité, cette redéfinition passe en grande partie par l'omniprésence dans le roman d'un narrateur je possédant la particularité de créer ses personnages « devant» le lecteur. C'est à ce narrateur à la subjectivité assumée que nous avons choisi de consacrer cette étude, dans le but de comprendre quel est l'impact du je sur le récit. L'analyse des passages où le narrateur subjectif se manifeste dans nos trois romans nous a permis de constater que sa personnalité s'affirmait de l'un à l'autre, au point où, de présence dont la légitimité est à acquérir, le je devient la « matière première» de son roman, puis finit par incorporer la diégèse et se faire personnage.

Full textThis thesis analyzes the relationship of Eugène Ionesco's life and works through a selfportrait lens. In his rich variety of works across multiple genres, e.g. essays, novels and plays, the author openly examines his life and his past to find the essence of his existence. Thus approached, the self-portrait constantly takes on new forms. Complex and cross-genre, it takes up various literary and metaphysical issues which will be analyzed and delineated through a tripartite approach. Firstly, the nature of self-writing in Ionesco's works will be considered in comparison to the concepts of autobiographical and journal writing in order to appreciate his originality more thoroughly. Next, his novelistic writing will be explored to show, on the one hand, how he adds an autobiographical dimension to fiction, and to reveal on the other hand, his goal as far as self-writing is concerned. Finally, the nature of Ionesco’s dramatic selfportrait will be analyzed from a genre standpoint as will his self-representation from “ outside himself”, that is to say, on stage

Full textDuring the July Monarchy, French romantic writers used critical essays to express their desire to create new typical characters, or « types ». According to them, the ability of a novel to create new « types » is a sign of literary value. This work studies the esthetical meaning of the word « type » and the way novels written by Stendhal, Vigny, Hugo, Sand, Musset, Balzac, Dumas, Eugène Sue and Théophile Gautier make a character into a « type ». This term appears in satirical newspapers and « Physiologies » at the same time and this dissertation aims at explaining the links between visual « types » in caricature and litterary « types » in novels. This work also tries to underline the differences and similarities between romantic and sociological « types »

Full textAn interdisciplinary and transcultural motif, the study of families has taken root in the genre of the novel. In Caribbean literature, there are but a few studies about the family pattern, despite the fact that the Caribbean area already constitutes a complex geographical family, painfully marked by colonization, slavery and the plantation system. This dissertation aims to study the various meanings of the representation of family, biological but also, figuratively, adoptive family, chosen family, spiritual family, etc. – in a trilingual corpus of texts made of four Caribbean fictional novels from the XXth and XXIst centuries: William Faulkner’s Sartoris, Cien años de soledad by Gabriel García Márquez, Patrick Chamoiseau’s Texaco and La eternidad del instante by Zoé Valdés. Within these four novels, the representation of the biological family soon reveals its dysfunctional dimension: rejected by the characters, fragilized by events, the family seems condemned to being dismembered. The failure allows for other relationships to form; far from being opposed to the way the original family was outlined, these relationships offer other ways to think about how to make a family. The passage from one family to the other allows to reflect upon, on the one hand, the question of familial identity on the part of the characters and, on the other, the relationship that Caribbean fiction writers have with the literary genealogy to which they wish to identify themselves

Full textThe representation of the city is studied from an interlocked pattern of urban realities, urban practices, and straightforward pictorial and verbal descriptions. From the Middles Ages to the XIXth century, their interweaving allowed the elaboration of representational models through which any city representation is possible in our civilization. Neverthless, from the end of the XVIIIth century, the urban revolution creates a gap between these types and reality, that is to say a crisis of represntation, which contemporary discourses have to confront. "City portraits" offer a stratégic starting point : they are literary texts which represent a single town, and thus rearticulate the representational models. .

Egan, Frances. "Portraits of the Artist's Self ˸ translating Alexandre Vialatte's Battling le ténébreux." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019USPCA043.
Full textAlexandre Vialatte’s (1901-1971) self-proclaimed label – ‘notoirement méconnu’ – continues to define him today. The writer-translator’s incongruities have relegated him to the margins of the French literary canon yet paradoxically attract a modest academic following. His first novel Battling le ténébreux ou la mue périlleuse (1928) – a little-studied and currently untranslated coming of age tale – exemplifies the rich placelessness that defines the author. This thesis contextualises Battling in light of Vialatte’s position as translator. It suggests the text is informed by an uneasy encounter between French and German cultures and geographies and, in parallel, it investigates the very notion of an identity ‘in translation’. This thesis adopts a translational approach whereby my own process translating Battling into English frames a literary study of the text. Given the multifaceted nature of translation, such an approach is interdisciplinary: it draws not only from translation studies (both theory and practice), but also from comparative literature, creative writing, and feminist studies, to map a polyphonous and multifaceted space between subjects and cultures. The analysis centres on the modernist hero’s ‘mue périlleuse’, or coming of age, and structures itself around two intersubjective encounters; as Vialatte’s protagonist meets his foreign and feminine Other to find insecurity, translator meets writer to problematise the original text. Through these two encounters, this thesis works to unsettle the binaries of self and other, original and translation, to ultimately present a plural and ethical identity in translation

Full textThe current study concerned the ancients' changing perception of the statue and its associated qualities during the enormous religious, political, and social upheavals of the 4th and 5th century A.D., focusing on the most clearly documented Western part of the Empire, particularly Africa, Italy and Gaul. The study draws on archeological, literary, legal and epigraphic sources more traditionally treated separately as belonging to either history or history of art. This multi disciplinary analysis casts new light on our understanding of statues, and the function of such images at the end of Antiquity as well as the unique plastic use of such images in sculpture in the round of the period. The images, which haunted the universe of the Ancients, were a product of its civilization in order to become the expression of it. This study thus takes an approach which includes social attitudes within the political and religious framework of a late Roman civilization in transition

Full textThis thesis is a translated edition of Books 57 & 58 of Cassius Dio's Roman History, with a philological and historical commentary. The latter edition of Cassius Dio's work is now outdated, and so are the French translations based upon it. Our work constitutes a part of a larger programme that aims to provide an up-to-date edition with a translation of the complete works of Cassius Dio. In books 57 & 58, the Greek historian, living under the Severans, follows thoroughly the evolution of the Tiberian Principate, with a particular focus on the political crisis from military rebellions in Pannonia and Germania to Sejanus' conspiracy. His analyses are founded both on his literature searches and on his own political experience as a Roman senator, and reveal an accurate knowledge of the institutional realities of the Early Principate. The main goal of the two books is to show how Tiberius, as the successor of Augustus, completes the founding work of his great predecessor while debasing the political ideals defined by Maecenas in book 52. In this train of thought, Dio pays special attention to the relationships between the Emperor and the Senators and how they evolve. Combining biographical patterns with an annalistic framework, the narration provides an original point of view on the figure of Tiberius, beside the earlier testimonies of Suetonius and Tacitus which remain incomplete with regard to the fall of Sejanus. Accordingly, the present work focusses on three main areas, including first the narrative structure, then the profiling of Tiberius as a political leader in relation to other rulers, and finally the distanced and ironic view on the political and human comedy

This study concerns the autobiographical expression in the films of sevral french cineastes, such as Jean Cocteau, François Truffaut, and Romain Goupil, those who intended constantly to create their own cinematic double all over their works. We will see the distinctive character of self-expression films through the various aspects of cineastes’ introspective gaze : those toward his « another self », toward his own death, etc. These gazes might be also examined in relations with the various ways that we can hear the polyphonic voices of cineastes

Full textThrough the analysis of the epigraphic and statuary evidence that relates to emperor Trajan in the cities of the western provinces, my objective is to determine the various forms of expression of allegiance and loyalty of the provincials towards him . The presence of Trajan through these two forms of expression usually privileged for imperial propaganda is very significant. It is due to several factors: Trajan is originally from Italica, in Betic, He is the first provincial to take power in Rome; then he is called Best of Princes; and he was a great soldier and a good administrator during a long reign of 19 years and a half. He was therefore honored by many epigraphic documents erected on the fora of provincial cities, accompanied by statues, on foot, or equestrian. He is a prince well known also in literature and numismatics. All these testimonies show that he is the first emperor whose title will be enriched with various attributes throughout his reign; he is Optimus princeps, the first Dacicus, the first Parthicus, but also the first to have worn the title Proconsul, outside Rome.This imperial title first established in Rome and then sent to the provinces is a rich and varied subject of study to make comparisons between the provinces and the cities themselves. This seems thanks feasible to a systematic inventory of epigraphic books allowing us to list 316 inscriptions mentioning the Emperor Trajan. This emperor not only renewed certain aspects said republicans but also preserved the Augustan model perceptible through its denomination in which Imperator Caesar is quoted constantly at the head of the imperial sequence. But the innovations of Trajan are important and will mark the imperial history for a long time, as the inauguration of a new computary tribune set to 10 December of each year, instead of a variable computary marked the entire first century. He has only been in the consulate five times and for very long periods. By this practice he has restored to imperial power its importance; He presents himself as the true father for his fellow citizens, in Rome as well as throughout the empire. In short, the Emperor's formula finds its definitive appearance from the reign of Trajan
