Full textThe present paper aims to study Plautus pre-classical roman comediographyas well as Gil Vicentes in portuguese Humanism, considering the concepts of family,marriage and private life under critical and theoretical perspectives. Having"Aulularia" and "Comédia do Viúvo" as for our research, initially we started acorpusdetailed study of the social relevance of these concepts at Roman Republic and alsoat Portugal in the transition between the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Then,analyzing these works, we aim to identify how these concepts and themes aredeveloped in the plot. Based on the concept of comicality and possible strategies toobtain it of Henri Bergson and Vladimir Propp, we intend to determine thecomediographers converging and diverging approaches while developing thesetopics, also elucidating the influence of social way of thinking in literary expression.These comicality study will be developed based on the philosophical and theoreticalworks of Gilles Deleuze, Mikhail Bakhtin and Friedrich Nietzsche

Full textThe vestiges of Roman theatres are ubiquitous throughout the Mediterranean Basin; these structures are familiar, yet remain relatively unexplored, with only a few studies considering their general place in Roman life. Inspired by research on the theatres and entertainment buildings of more recent times, this study offers an urbanistic perspective on these multipurpose edifices; characteristic of the urbanitas, these were at the same time buildings for theatrical performances, ritual ceremonies, and daily activities; civic and religious meeting places; centres of social interaction. The innovations the Romans made to the architectural theatrical form invented by the Greeks enabled them to redefine the theatre’s place in the city and to incorporate it purposefully into their plans for urbanization. Combining the analysis of ancient textual and pictoral representations of Roman theatres with archaeological case studies, this thesis explores and clarifies the practical and symbolic relationships between the theatre and the city in Roman times. By broadening the scope of investigation and by exploring the dynamic and affective positioning of the theatre into the Roman urban landscape, this thesis reveals these architectural structures to be simultaneously typical and unique, complex and understandable, and ultimately remarkably effective in establishing and embodying the image of the city

Full textAmong the forms of organization one can observe in the ancient habitat, there is one particular structure that has been slightly ignored by French archeologists: the lesser urbanized settlements. However, in the last twenty years, small towns have attracted renewed interest.A historiographical study of the Gaul territory highlighted a less studied group of population: the ancient peoples of the Massif Central. In this thesis we intend to have a closer look at such populations as the Arvernes, the Vellaves, the Gabales, the Rutenes, the Cadurques, and the Lemovices from 1st century B.C. - 5th century A.D. We first established a corpus of sites starting with the study of the regional bibliography, which enabled us to create records for each area. We completed this first approach with several field operations such as ground, aerial, geophysical and topographical surveys. All those data were synthesized in a series of archaeological descriptors developed using the Archaeomedes model.The use of such descriptors enabled us to develop some statistical analyses and go beyond the simple reliability factor (which allows the distinction between rejected sites, hypothetical and true urbanized clusters). On the basis of our tested and proven classification, keeping in mind the suggested urban hierarchy and with the help of our spatial and morphological analyses, we were able to obtain a more complete picture of the urban framework of the ancient cities of the Massif Central.The data collected allowed us to better apprehend and understand the relation between such urban clusters and their natural environment, but also to place them in an archaeological context by studying the links between rural housing, the ancient administrative structure (chef-lieu), the city and territory limits, and the major communication routes (land and water). Through a multi-scale study of those population clusters, we were able to determine their general structure, to look at the role of local crafts and trade but also the place of major buildings, and waterworks. We took specific care to the chronological evolution in thosesmall towns by looking at them from their protohistoric beginnings through Antiquity and until early medieval times.While we cross-referenced all the different sources (bibliography and field surveys) and the analysis scales within the Massif Central, we also did a cross-comparison with other neighboring areas in order to validate such work. Besides the statistical data, we used the Geographic Information System and our database to reach our conclusions.This thesis aims at uncovering the reality of those ancient population clusters present in the Massif Central. Our results showed clearly the importance of those in the settlement system, their different forms structured according to the local geography and major trade routes. The functions/positions available in small towns were varied and recurrent but also corresponded to specific trades within each structure while remaining homogeneous.Through our chronological analysis we were able to point out a significant reduction in their numbers starting in the third century, though not their disappearing. In the 4th century new types of population clusters appeared, not as a response to an acute crisis, but more as a result of an evolution called on by new needs

Full textThe thesis is composed of various studies dating from 1974 to 1989. Most of this worl has already been presented in the form of conference papers or publications. The main concern is with different approaches to the theatre in South Africa South african theater gradually became our principal object of study vi atwo apparently unrelated issues : a general enquiry into the theater in times of political and social conflict at different periods and, stemming from a curiosity for the literature of apartheid, preliminary studies of the south african novel. We research the main subject by trying to see the different aspects and ethnic divisions in perspective and then by looking for the specificity of south african theatrical performance. Having spent four months doing research in South Africa,it appaeared a good idea to give an account of this visit as well as oft he cultural boycott which affects the reception of south african theatre in Europe. The last and third part of this work attempts a study in depth of the market theatre, Johannesburg. The conclusion deals with the question of whether and to what extent the new culture-brokers are a continuation of white hegemony

Full textMan hopes to reconstruct a utopia where he is, with others, free, equal and humane and where he communicates perfectly with them. But the actual world is terrifying. Violence particulary is an element which makes it impossible to build a utopia. Violence is in itself the destructire force. To eradicate it, one looks for another kinf of violence. Like the greek word pharmakon, the function of violence is two-fold : evil and curative. The idea of a liberating violence is within the revolution. The 'groupe en fusion' of sartre is an example. But the risk of an infinite escalation of violence always exists. There is no good without evil. It is necessary to think about another remedy using less violent ways. Sartre emphasizes on the destructive force of his writing. Violence and the action of writing are complementary to fight against violence. Sartre's career is marked by this complementary rivalry. In spite of his knowledge of the efficiency of contre -violence, he ultimately chooses the action of writing in his struggle against violence. The origin and definition of violence, the faces of violence which are present in sartre's literary universe, his alternative to violence: these are the questions which we try to answer in our study. As a result, we represented a modele de l'ethique communicationnelle. For that, we concentrated. .

Full textFor a long time Ippolito Nievo’s (1831-1861) theatrical production was considered less important than his work of narrative and was considered as “juvenile work”. On the contrary, during the last ten years of the Nineteenth century, it was reconsidered and it brought to the discovery of several comic texts, such as Le Invasioni Moderne and Il Pindaro Pulcinella, which have showed Nievo’s cleverness in writing plays for the theatre.The edition of the last unpublished production, which is presented in this essay, completes and broadens the studies done on Nievo’s theatre, at the same time, opening several doors for a possible reconsideration of some critical points of Nievo’s literary aesthetics. From the study of the unpublished texts produced before Le Confessioni di un Italiano, in fact, Nievo’s dependence on French literature appeared, especially Balzac, Stendhal and George Sand. The setting of I Beffeggiatori –a political comedy which portrays Italy in 1852-1853 – and its study of the characters recalls the Chartreuse de Parme by Stendhal, his ironical glance at political happenings told by Balzac and it moves away totally from contemporary comic theatre. Don Giovanni –notes for a comic text in verses- results from Stendhalian considerations on the figure of the Seduttore, considerations which we can find in the De l’Amour and in the short story Les Cenci; but Don Giovanni also results from the whole French post-Byron tradition of the myth. Consuelo – the libretto- reveals a clear and evident Sandian matrix in its plot and allows to formulate a theory on the aesthetic Nievian music, full of Mazzinian considerations, well known to Sand too.The edition of these texts has allowed to reformulate some judgements on the origin of Nievo’s irony, even in L’Afrodisiaco per l’amor platonico and in Lettere a Matilde, underlining a matrix which is decidedly and only French

Full textMichel Butor’s work is different from the others by its crossing genres which it shows the limits of. Referring to the generic classification inherited from the nineteenth century, literary criticism often divides the work in poems, novels, and unclassifiable texts, while maintaining the idea that he had neglected the novelistic form after 1960. Still, the choice of the work that includes several forms of a hybrid text will now determine the genre.The first part deals with the mutation of the literary forms in the work of Michel Butor. We will examine the question of the choice of novelistic form by the author. Generic hybridization will be Butor’s favorite means of artistic expression, because the search of new aspects of Butor’s poetics reveals that it is corrupted by dramatic metaphor. So, we will see the interaction between the novel and radio drama through the reading of Mobile: study for a representation of the United States, Airline Network and Niagara.The second part is about the drama and shows radiophonic aspects of the postnovelistic work through different levels of reading set up by Patrice Pavis (Discursive, Narrative, Actantial, Ideological and Unconscious), and the production system in relation with the recording studio. The notion of “novelistic effect” will therefore be the result of an obsession of novelistic form produced by reading.The third part analyses poetic prose of radio drama and the unconscious and ideological structures of the work, based on the importance of oral discourse which reveals the ambiguity between the form (radio drama) and the individual attitude and the group, marked by the inability to pass on a coherent perception of the world because of their prejudices
Barbillon, Chrystelle. "Mode narratif, mode dramatique : l’adaptation théâtrale de fiction narrative au XVIIe siècle en France." Thesis, Paris 4, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA040006.
Full textOften dismissed as the production of second-hand literature, though constantly used by modern stage directors and playwrights, adaptation has frequently been neglected by critics; barely theorised by those who practice it, it has been approached with an approximate definition. Through the study of thirty novels and short stories − ranging from Honoré d'Urfé's L’Astrée (1607-1625) to Saint-Réal’s Dom Carlos (1672) − and the study of some eighty theatrical adaptations, this work analyses the theatrical adaptation of narrative fictions as a coherent writing practice, which each and every play embodies in a different way. Starting with a clear definition of what theatrical adaptation means, then proceeding with a careful reading of the works and a detailed review of contemporary theories, we build tools to analyse this corpus and avoid the aporias adaptation theories have usually been confronted with. This reading of adaptation, based on rhetorics, enables us to follow the process of adaptative writing step by step through its various techniques − from the selection of material within the novel to the designing and actual writing of the play to its final staging. Thus we define the poetics of a transmodal adaptation, which reinvents the working of rhetorical categories and questions the potentiality of drama as a semiotic medium. Adaptation therefore challenges literary genres − sometimes confirming their topoï, sometimes creating new forms − and thus tackles aesthetics-related issues. Theatrical adaptation appears as a field of literary experimentation and formal innovation, within which intertextual references reverberate and multiply in various levels of reading. Exhibiting its second-hand nature and therefore its literary quality, theatrical adaptation rightly deserves to be read as a major contribution to the French seventeenth-century dramatic literature, to which it gives back its density and richness

Full textThe study conducted gives us a non canonical reading about the Leonor Fini's activity as theatrical costume designer, with a special view to the shows performed between Rome and Paris from 1944 to 1969, while trying to develop a non-ordinary interpretive trajectory on this little explored area of her art.In fact, using the artist's travesties trends - which have been found in Trieste, city where she absorbed a plurality of intellectuals stimulus from the earliest age- as a starting point, the axis of the survey has arrived to the definition of her work as costume designer. The aim was to give an organic reading, to describe an orderly and reasoned development that, starting by transvestism, guides to theatrical costume's creation -which should be considered as a desired purpose- in an uniquely and extraordinary way.Therefore, an analysis of some costume design sketches made for Italian productions and, on the other side, those for some French productions, has proposed. Many of these sketches are unpublished and, on previously studies, they have been victim of mistakes about the dating or the premiere's theatre.Thanks to the building of a systematic itinerary on the existential essence in the costume design production, the contribution that this study attempts to give to finienne literature is interpretative, as far as chronological and recognitive .Therefore, this study is about interconnections and touches between various research fields encompassed by this eclectic, cosmopolitan and magnetic, cultured and refined artist for which the costume's creation was a necessary goal to reach
Lo studio condotto mira a conferire una lettura non canonica dell'attività di Leonor Fini come costumista teatrale, con uno sguardo preferenziale sugli spettacoli andati in scena a Roma e Parigi fra il 1944 e il 1969, sviluppando un itinerario interpretativo non ordinario su questo aspetto poco esplorato della sua arte.L'indagine ha preso il via a partire dalla determinazione delle tendenze travestitive dell'artista, rintracciate a Trieste -città ove la Fini assorbì una pluralità di stimoli intellettualifin dalla tenera età, per arrivare poi alla definizione del lavoro in qualità di costumista.L'obiettivo fronteggiato in questo studio è stato quello di dare una lettura organica, di descrivere un cammino ordinato e ragionato che dal travestimento ha condotto, in maniera univoca e straordinaria, alla creazione del costume teatrale il quale deve essere considerato come una meta a lungo perseguita.Sono stati quindi analizzati alcuni bozzetti di costume realizzati in seno a produzioni italiane e, inoltre, alcuni destinati invece a produzioni francesi. Molti di questi risultano inediti, e oltretutto alcuni di essi, sono stati in passato vittime di errori riguardo la loro datazione o il teatro della prima messa in scena.Grazie alla costruzione di un percorso organico sull'essenza esistenziale-identitaria della produzione costumistica di un'artista controversa come lei, il contributo che questo studio tenta di conferire alla letteratura finiana è di tipo interpretativo come anche cronologico e ricognitivo. Lo studio parla quindi di interconnessioni e sfioramenti fra differenti territori di ricerca toccati da quest'artista eclettica, cosmopolita e magnetica, colta e raffinata, per laquale la pratica del costume fu una necessaria destinazione da raggiungere

Full textThis study deals with theatre in his material dimensions, enlightened by the texts relating to the operation and place of theatre in the society of Hellenistic and Roman Egypt. Centre of expression and diffusion of Graeco-Roman culture, theatrical practice appears as a fundamental element in the process of Hellenization which implements in Egypt from the conquest of Alexander the Great. Three main areas of research were identified : first, the theatre is discussed as in his architectural dimension. This approach, mainly archaeological, is also in relation with the notion of urban planning framework and set of monumental cities of Egypt at this time. Then our research focuses specifically on the influence of theatrical practice in Egypt, through the study of the production of objects associated to theatrical and Dionysiac world. These images reflect not only the diffusion and adaptation of an essential component of Greek and Roman culture in Egypt, but also the royal attachment to Dionysus, considered the ancestor of Ptolemaic dynasty. Third and finally, the various activities and events associated with the theatre building are developed ; we deal not only dramatic shows, authors and actors, but also maintenance and building management issues. The contribution of textual documentation is an invaluable tool in the development of these notions

Full textThe « Gallo-roman theatre » has always been a sensitive subject among french archaeologists. Since Albert Grenier’s theory on the « theatre-amphitheatre » to Françoise Dumasy and the renewal of studies about roman entertainement buildings, roman theatres in Gaul have always been considered as different buildings compared to the classical theater pattern suggested by Vitruvius in his de Architectura. Many different reasons were frequently mentioned to explain the particular forms of « Gallo-roman theatres ». The intended purpose of this PhD is not to give a definitive definition of what roman theatres in Gaul could be -in fact, too few of them were excavated. Nevertheless, it is possible trought a regional study of roman theatres in north-western Gaul to have a glimpse of one of the most interesting moments of the adaptation of a roman theater in what has been considered as a remote region of the roman empire

Full textpetrographic, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope coupled with energy dispersive X-ray and Fourier Transform Infrared analyses were carried out for investigating the mineralogical and chemical properties. Most of the ceramic samples have slip and glaze on both sides. The glaze part is mostly fresh without any devitrification products. Bodies of the ceramics have tones of reddish yellow and/or red, indicating abundant amount of iron in their raw material. Grains consist mainly of metamorphic rock fragments (quartz-mica schist), quartz, feldspar, hornblende, hematite and biotite. Pyroxene, epidote, chert, muscovite, opaque minerals, chlorite are also encountered. Micritic calcite occurs in some of the pores. Ceramic bodies investigated are usually fine-grained and well-sorted. Clay raw material used for the production of the ceramics seems to be originated from a metamorphic source. Bodies usually show a low degree of vitrification with few exceptions, indicating a rather simple technology with non-uniform and low degree of firing, probably not exceeding 900°

Full textAnalyzing the Roman performances of theatre, amphitheatre and circus in a social history approach makes it possible to understand them as a structuring element of Roman culture and society and as a time-space of public life through which it is possible to observe in a privileged way this society, the different groups that compose it and the relations that are formed between them. These spectacular performances took place within the framework of large public celebrations (the ludi and munera) and occupied an ambiguous place in Roman society. Despite their growing success and major role in public life, they were morally denigrated. They were therefore accessible to women because strictly separated from the civic sphere. Women could not only attend but also perform, giving them exceptional visibility in the public space. The practices of exhibition in perfonnances, attested by both literary and epigraphic sources, reveal the contradictions of Roman society: despite their discredit, they provided individuals, according to their status, with a significant source of income and a major media tool. The exhibition of women in Roman shows gives a glimpse of their place in this society. In the continuity of studies on women and gender, it is not a question of disconnecting women's history from that of men and the rest of society, but of studying mixed social practices by specifying the place that women occupied in them and the significance of their integration into these practices

Full textThe theater scene, key element of several novels yet unexplored, questions the bounds between the medium and the œuvre within. Supported by a corpus made of French and French Canadian novels published between 1871 and 1949, this work argues the recurrent specificities of the theater scene, whatever the time, the aesthetics or the place from which the novelist writes. Becoming a privileged topos for the text that operates « a return on itself », the questions of reflexivity and specularity enlighten what theater can do to the text. From a sociocritic reading articulating social and art matters, our study on the theater scene covers not only the dramatic art’s aspect but also the theater aspect thought as a social classification tool. The costume, the body of the artist, the lights, but also the theatrical spaces, the category of public and the society life happening in the theater hall are, if anything else, some facets our work would like to point out. The prism of the theater scene once revealed goes beyond the interiority of art and the exteriority of the social behavior through and thanks to the body. Between what André Belleau calls the « code » and the « parole (speech)», the theater scene embodies both aspects, links them both tight and goes past them thanks to the bodies that are both eroticized and socialized

Full textFar from leaving the Spaniards indifferent, Hispanic America has drawn Spanish attention after its independence and fostered a continuous literary and iconographic production since the beginning of the era isabellina to the early days of the Restoration. Consisting of nearly 300 plays, novels, paintings and sculptures, the corpus collected and analyzed in this thesis shows the existence of an actual literary and artistic production about Hispanic America through the nineteenth century in Spain. In order to identify its characteristics and its impact on the social imaginary of Spain, we have highlighted the specific modes of production and distribution of each artistic media. This production, heavily influenced by preexisting artistic standards, has favored the construction of a collective American imagery, particularly through the crystallization of images that circulate between the different media. Therefore, although most of these works have sunk into oblivion, they remain a reflection of the way the Spaniards looked at the continent and of the need to redefine and legitimize the relationship between Spain and the young American republics

Full textThis thesis analyses the Arabic translations of French romantic literary works from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, during the Nahda or Arab Renaissance. To this end the thesis uses a comparative approach which studies and observes how some works of the French Romantic repertoire have been received in Egypt and, by extension, in the entire world. Our conviction that French Romanticism carries an "orientality" intrinsic both to the original text and its transposition, leads us to think that there would be there, among Arab translators, a tendential affinity to this romantic aesthetic. Our study starts from a corpus comprising the Hugo drama, Hernani, the epistolary novel, Under the lime trees by Alphonse Karr, Lamartine’s “The Lake” and some poems extracted from the Orientals Hugo: "Ghosts", "Lazzara", “Waiting” and “Fire from Heaven”. We will try to conceive a new prism for the comparative view, placing ourselves not only from the point of view of the Arab translators, but also in the modality of their own reading of the work that has imposed itself on their intelligence and their sensitivity

Men and women of letters, Chateaubriand, Lamartine, Michelet, Balzac, Hugo, Sand, the Goncourt brothers, Mirabeau, Maupassant take part in this thermal cure phenomenon and attend water cities. Sand takes the opportunity to make excursions, Dumas runs away from rampant cholera over Paris, Balzac is involved in a courtship with the Marchioness of Castries, Zola accompanies his wife who is a patient, Mallarmé joins his mistress… But most of writers go to thermal cures for health purposes. In this way Bashkirtseff seeks to eradicate tuberculosis, Daudet, Maupassant and Lorrain treat their syphilis, Chateaubriand his rheumatism, Verlaine his leg ulcers, Proust his asthma. All these writers patients shared about their experience, in their correspondence or in their novels, poems, travel stories. Their characters live in these water cities as well ; Christiane Andermatt gets to the springs of Mont Oriol’s exploitation, the cure mostly is the opportunity for her to meet her lover and to have a baby, without waters playing a specific role ; Verdinet, Galinois and other protagonists of Labiche’s comedy, I compromised my wife, are in Bagnères-de-Bigorre, and Mirabeau’s neurasthenic, in Luchon. This is a walk in the world of waters, as seen by writers, between 1800 and 1914
Wesseler, Fedora. "Dramaturgies du Sublime entre théâtre et opéra (1890 – 1939) : présence et métamorphose d’un concept dans l’écriture théâtrale de Romain Rolland, Richard Beer-Hofmann, William Butler Yeats et Hugo von Hofmannsthal." Thesis, Paris 4, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PA040194.
Full textEuropean drama at the beginning of the 20th century was in search of new forms of artistic expression. In this context which coincides with the rejection of materialism, the Sublime as consciousness of human dignity gained in importance. A bulwark against the perpetual and inevitable succession of human life, the Sublime as defined by Schiller more than a century earlier attained equality with the awareness of History, lending to humankind an element of eternity. The efforts of W.B. Yeats to restore a sense of Irish community at the Abbey Theatre, those of Max Reinhardt and Hugo von Hofmannsthal who created the Salzburg Festival, but also Romain Rolland’s project of a « People’s Theatre » as well as Richard Beer-Hofmann’s plays which integrated the memory of the past, all reveal the reconciliatory function newly conferred on drama. These four authors found an answer to the destructive forces of their time by creating a drama of human dignity in which sublime heroism shifts through compassion. Its source, imagination, plays an essential role in the dramaturgy of the Sublime. The examination of the Sublime as a philosophical and dramatic principle elucidates its relationship to both opera and melodrama. The overlapping of genres can already be noticed in Schiller’s plays and proves the intention of raising the audience above the daily round, thanks to a visionary dramaturgy, based on the longing for a higher reality

Full textThe thesis furnishes the opinions of Frenchmen at that time about Duchy of Warsaw presented in different French sources of the period 1807- 1813 such as political and military official letters, memories of military Frenchmen, Parisian press, literature, poetry and theater playwrights. First part of the work shows how the polish country was seen by French diplomats who had been staying in Duchy of Warsaw in that period. The author focuses first on the political image of the country which is rather critical, secondly on the institutions, thirdly on the men in power, then on the government, on the people’s attitudes and the opinions of the inhabitants of the country about Frenchmen, and finally on the new political and legal solutions. In the second part of the work, there many descriptions, as well as memories of military men which form together an critical view of the poor polish country, different lifestyles and customs of its inhabitants. In that part, we can find as well geographical information about the climate and various and vivid descriptions of polish towns and polish countryside. In the third part, we come across the image as it was seen in everyday press, historical books edited at that period in France, fictions, poetry and plays. We find out that the image of Duchy of Warsaw, strongly influenced by the Napoleonic propaganda is positive. It comes out that the polish allied country was well governed

Full textThe theatre has been for both Greek and Romans an essential element of a city and, at the same time, of being a citizen.As many researches are demonstrating these days, studying the theatres and their architectural and morphological features, as well as analysing their position and functions, can provide important data and clues about how communities saw themselves, which cultural network they were part of or shared characteristics with, to which extent they influenced or were influenced by other cultures.Therefore, given their ideological role, theatrical buildings seemed a valid hermeneutical instrument to understand the architectural culture of this territory as well as the political and social evolution of the communities which inhabited it. Thus, it seemed appropriate to adopt this approach to a region whose urbanistic and political evolution is still under constant debate, such as Epirus and Southern Illyria.The main aim of the research has been a re-interpretation of the data already published about the theatres chosen as a Corpus in the light of the most recent studies on the territory but also of important research themes that animate the scientific debate of the last decades. It is indeed possible to read those data in a new perspective taking into account historical, cultural, architectural and urbanistic contexts both from a diachronic and a geographic point of view. This approach has, in the end, made possible to review, clarify, update and interpret the available data about each theatre and to frame it into a wider, Mediterranean, context.In order to achieve this aim a complex database has been conceived that could include all the data mentioned above given some homogenous and common criteria. It is worth noticing, however, that the database has not been conceived only to manage a huge amount of data but also, to actually serve as a normative instrument for a better understandable and more homogeneous systematisation both of the data themselves and their relations with sources and modern studies.The review of the published information about theatrical buildings in Epirus and Southern Illyria, in the light of the above-mentioned systematisation, has consequently proved itself useful in order to propose a new perspective on the settlement dynamics, the monumentalisation and the cultural development of those regions.Eventually, it has been possible to conclude that the city and the theatre can’t be separated, either in Epirus or in Southern Illyria, from the development of a Hellenistic realm that, at least at the beginning, has marked significantly the image of the territory. The constitution itself of the Aeacid monarchy, almost “contractual” regarding the different koina that kept a significant amount of administrative autonomy throughout the entire Hellenism, must have envisaged a regular presence of the king in each of the most important cities of the region. The monumentalisation, that we could call “processional”, of a great number of urban centres, such as Byllis, Kassope or Phoinike, can be legitimately linked to the rise of Pyrrhus and the establishment of the so-called Great Epirus. Its therefore possible to identify, in this historical moment, the construction of a political conscience that we could define as entirely Mediterranean and that is largely expressed in the cultural, urban and architectural features we can observe in both Epirus and Southern Illyria.Even if the establishment of the polis as an administrative model has met some resistence in the region, the heritage of the pyrrhic era can be recognised in that cultural and political conscience expressed through the proper and traditional Hellenistic patterns which form a peculiar language that will eventually been adopted by Rome while imposing its power into the Mediterranean context
Rodrígues, Suárez Lisa. "La représentation des femmes dans l’œuvre romanesque et théâtrale d’Octave Mirbeau." Thesis, Paris 4, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA040024.
Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to study the link between the feminine figure in Octave Mirbeau’s novels and plays and the whole meaning of his work (in particular its political aiming). The key question to be answered is : Is the feminine figure a mimetic representation of the objective reality of late nineteenth century women or does it have a deeper meaning ? The analysis is divided into three parts, and evolves from the most objective to the most symbolic. The first part, entitled « The woman, between realism and caricature » is aimed to analyse the degree of realism that can be found in the construction of feminine figures. In the second part, entitled « A mystification process ? », a further aim is to bring understanging to the influences (scientific, literal and philosofical) that had an impact upon most of the writers in the end of the nineteenth century and Mirbeau in particular, even though his work always remains very personal. The third part, « A symbolic construction placing the woman at the core of Mirbeau’s political fights » goes beyond the questions studied before and analyses how Mirbeau managed to create a new kind of feminity. The objective of this third part is to show that the woman embodies an ambivalente value in Mirbeau’s work, and is at the same time a symbol of the corrupted society and a symbol of freedom and resistance to this same corruption. In recent years, the world has changed a lot and the conclusion of the study is focused on the contemporary aspects of Mirbeau’s world, as well as on the postmodern dimension of his universe

Full textThis research focuses on the analysis of the issues of language and identity in novels written in Hebrew by members of the Palestinian minority in Israel ("hybrid texts" according to Yassir Suleiman). It combines two components, one diachronic and one analytical. First, it examines the history of the Palestinian novel in Hebrew and the different fields where Hebrew and Arabic, Palestinian and Israeli Jew as well as minority and majority meet. Second, the analytical, comparative approach of the works of Atallah Mansour (1935), Anton Shammas (1950) and Sayed Kashua (1975) is examined from their dual, Israeli and Palestinian, affiliation. It sets these works in the context of Minor Literature, post-colonial hybrid identity and Mahmoud Darwich’s third space. The aim is to outline the Palestinian narrative initiated by minority writers as a process of deconstruction, reconfiguration and correction of the representation of the Palestinian character in Hebrew literature
Stentz, Barbara. "Les représentations de la douleur dans les arts graphiques en France au XVIIIè siècle." Thesis, Strasbourg, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012STRAG032.
Full textThis study aims to examine the forms and the issues of pain in graphic arts during the 18th century, as drawings and engravings take on an experimental aspect and constitute precious evidence of patterns diffusion. It considers the conventions, the debates and the codifications determining its figurative representations, in relation to aesthetic, médical, social and political matters. In a time when pain tends to be obscured by people who are supposed to be in charge of it, it seemed important to appraise its occurrences and its past depictions. Seen from this perspective, the French figurative arts through the second half of the 18th century offer a remarkable field of study. The aesthetic debates about the sculpted group of Laocoon and the veil of Timanthes, or, on a medical level, concenring pain persistence in persons convicted and decapitated, reveal that this passion was of great interest for the theorists at that time

Full textThe concept of “popular theater” has many connotations which is often contradictory and it constitutes nowadays a utopia or a true “myth”, in the sense that Roland Barthes attributed to this term in his famous Mythologies. Our research project is therefore an attempt to question this utopia by comparing the debates, theories and practices that have crossed the twentieth century in France (and in Europe) and in the same period, those that animated a context far removed, culturally and geographically: China. Between the desires of democratization and the effects of propaganda, between dreams of formal revolutions and aesthetic conformism, the notion of popular theater makes it possible to go through a long period, rich in contradictions, characterized by enormous changes on the political and ideological level (two world wars and several revolutions) as well as strictly theatrically. If China has been able to represent on several occasions, a mythical and controversial model in the west, what about Western theories and practices, especially French, in China? This study is based on a comparative survey of socio-cultural movements, intellectual thoughts and aesthetic transformations of a utopia concerning popular theater of the twentieth century between France and China

Full textFrom a corpus of fifteen buildings and architectural projects in twelve cities located east of the border of the Holy Roman Empire, this dissertation endeavours to shed light on the question of the creation of an architectural programme specific to public theatre. Running counter to a certain historiographical tradition centred on auditorium reform and the progressive monumentalization of the theatre, this study examines how theatrical productions determined architectural distributions and conditioned the demands made upon such buildings. To this end, the analyses of the various architectural modes of expression are grounded in the social and administrative history of performances. This approach investigates the various parties involved in the realization of each new public theatre as well as the roles played by public administrators and the cultural press in encouraging the building projects and making information about the existing buildings available. By highlighting actors often neglected by architectural historians and modes of circulation specific to the imperial context, the process of transferring architectural knowledge may be questioned anew. The new avenues thus opened make it possible to extend the chronology of the emancipation of the architecture specific to the public theatres in Central Europe fifty years earlier, also shedding light on such forgotten typologies as the théâtres-redoute and the theatre-inns. Finally, this methodological perspective allows for a greater understanding of the political exploitation of the durable nature of theatre architecture toward the formation of an imaginary ‘civilised Europe’ promoted by the theatrical elite of the Holy Roman Empire
Renouf, Magali. "Surréalisme africain et surréalisme français : influences, similitudes et différences." Thesis, Tours, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013TOUR2004/document.
Full textAfrican Surrealism requires the question from the influence of French surrealism. Terminology implies, indeed, a link between African writing and the French movement. This link is established by both critics and the dialogues between the two worlds. Senghor encouraged to consider independent part of this surrealism evoking a black negro-african surrealism. We disclaim then behind apparent similarities, differences which reveal a surrealism in the service of understanding the world purely African. African surrealism is an expression of the traditional African perception whose shape is similar to that introduced by the Parisian movement without necessarily had influence

Full textIf we contemplate the playwright's rich production, we realise to what extent Egypt plays a prominent part in his work and life. It is the crowning achievement of his literary work which highlights all the aspects of this country, social, historical, cultural and political However, in this study, we will try to limit our subject of The image of Egypt in T.al-Hakim's work to two particular eras, the revolutions of 1919 and 1952. His writings clearly relate those major events. The way he thinks, writes, criticizes and analyses before and after the 1919 revolution is no longer the same after the 1952 revolution. He started being a dreamy idealistic writer, and turned into another one, more realistic and committed in his literary work. Our global problematics will hinge on the following issues: what representation of Egypt does Tawfiq al-Hakim's work give? Can we regard his return to ancient myths as a continuity between modern Egypt and ancient Egypt? In a first part, we deal with the two revolutions which have had repercussions on his writings and political vision. The second part will tackle the society of his novel, in which he describes a country seen through a native Egyptian, and the strong ties which link the Egyptian people to their nation. The third part will focus on women and on the fallah, which greatly inspired the writer. The fourth part will be dedicated to the Pharaonic Egypt. We will see how far he has been influenced by ancient Egypt to descibe the modern one. We have relied on a few works of different writers so as to find an authentic link between what he writes and thinks reality and imagination in his works. We will analyse the way he sees, observes and criticizes his own country

Full textIn the America of the XXe century, works of Ying Chen, Dany Laferrière and Wajdi Mouawad express voices that are, at the same time, different, various and deviating for the ones of the quebecker’s national literature. Taking their distance toward stereotyped representations of their time, like the exilic literature or the travel literature, migrant authors set stories where brand new images of the northern towns emerge, as well as emblematic places and the meeting of the other occurs. The migrant author reveals, just like his exploded path, a game with the reader by taking over several roles, several auctorial figures. His writing is therefore, a palimpsest: it’s integrating various literary models while it goes beyond. In its intern construction, in its creation process, we may discover how it shielded literary norms. Finally, the migrant writer offers a view of the world that is both reconcile and indulgent by making live together the alives and the deads
Clara, Christine. "La mise en pièces de l'héritage surréaliste après 1945." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016USPCA058.
Full textWhen André Breton comes back to France in 1946, he's thrilled with theatre plays which manage to renew the dramatic practices of the time. Between 1945 and the late sixties, Ionesco, Schehadé, Gracq, and also Adamov, Arrabal, Audiberti, Limbour, Obaldia, Vian and Weingarten create daring plays which have everything to allure the leader of surrealism.Even if most authors only have a tenuous or even non-existent link with the surrealist movement, they inherit certain notions of first surrealism through playwrights and theatre theorists - such as Artaud and Jarry-, thinkers -philosophers or psychoanalysts- but also stage directors.The twenty plays studied here question human existence by either analyzing the perception of the nonsense of the world and the incapacity to communicate, or the loss of values and reference markers, leading the characters to wonder about their identities, their memories and their desires. Beyond these reflections characteristic of the dramatic production of the post-war period, the playwrights of our corpus explore new dramatic paths. Some propose a linguistic work which aims at finding poetry within daily conversations. Others question what we take for granted through humour and irony. Finally, others turn to the exploration of one’s unconscious, dreams and madness.These three approaches born of individual initiatives of the playwrights get close to a surrealist aesthetics, but they may not by themselves summarize the diversity of dramatic attempts nor define a posteriori a new idea of surrealist theatre
Rascle, Floriane. "Écritures dramatiques et romanesques des XXe et XXIe siècles à l’épreuve des arts non verbaux. Modèles et dispositifs." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016USPCA110.
Full textThe observation of the presence of non verbal arts within the works of Marguerite Duras, Lawrence Durrell, Elfriede Jelinek and Péter Nádas leads us to examine the musicality and the iconicity of contemporary dramatic and novelistic writings in terms of model, pattern and devices. Dialogue, hybridization, polyphony, dialogism, intermediality, and what Jacques Rancière calls “impurification” within the “Aesthetic Regime of Art”, display the dreams, desires and longings of verbal art for other arts, but also for representations whose artistic content is arguable. The fact that contemporary writings produce an organic, sexual, erotic, even pornographic body invites us to focus on the interactions between arts and non-arts with regard to their performative devices and to propose a queer reading of the works. In Postmodernism, the fact that writings draw on non verbal forms can be understood as the expression of the failure of Logos – both language and reason – and of representation. Moreover, what is also at stake is an aesthetic and political reform of literature. Whether they tend to impose new verbal models or break into them, non verbal arts contribute not only to reshape literary forms but also to emphasize their political substance and renew their fictional content. This dissertation aims to investigate the crossroads between aesthetics and politics that the various relationships between verbal and non-verbal arts display, from mid-20th century to the beginning of the 21st century, within Literature, the verbal art par excellence
