Abstract:

This thesis undertakes a study of esotericism in the writings of Eva-Gore-Booth in order to generate insights into the approach to gender refracted in her literary output and illuminate the way in which recourse to esoteric, religious and philosophical traditions enabled her to negotiate the issue of sexual difference in a way that challenged its mainstream conceptualizations. The progression of proto-ecological concerns in Gore-Booth's literary and theological writing, and the ways in which such concerns are interwoven with her feminist advocacy of movement beyond male-female categorisation,

Abstract:

Beginning with a redefinition of key critical terms and a discussion of the Western academy's stake in devaluing the discourse of the sacred, this dissertation moves into a study of the sacred writings of six American women. First, we look at Lucille Clifton's poetry in Good Woman and Next. We observe this poet's celebration of her participation in generative creation and racial continuity, through the body of motherhood. In addition, Clifton claims kinship with "Other" cultural groups, based on shared values, understandings, and vocation. The second chapter explores the "character" of the Ame

Abstract:

This thesis inhabits the space between the art of poetry and the conditions of faith. Its concern is threefold: women, Church, poetics. It undertakes a journey from institutional Church into more radical and textual spaces, beginning with an examination of the state of the Roman Catholic Church today as revealed in Tina Beattie’s critique of Hans Urs von Balthasar, whose disturbing theology has contributed to a misogyny she argues has poisoned the body of the Church. Beattie’s critique is a point of departure into a potentially transformative poetics that she hints at but never fully pursues.

Abstract:

Biblical literalism can be dangerous, especially when scriptural exegeses shape standards for social norms. According to the 2nd version of the biblical creation story of Adam and Eve for example, all of mankind must suffer for Genesis’s account of the choice of one woman. As many peoples have historically viewed this ancient story as fact, despite various changes, the ambiguous and often contradictory language of the text, and preconceptions stemming from philosophical interpretations, women have been regarded as inferior to man largely in part to Eve’s role in the story, or more specifically

Abstract:

This thesis investigates what formal problems globalisation and the loss of anthropological place pose for the creative writer. It asks how fiction might best represent the journeys of the solitary supermodern “passenger” through an empty and mute world of transient non-places. The exegesis finds that the non-place possesses qualities analogous with sacred space, and that writing informed by the Japanese religio-aesthetic ideal ma (間) may yield sympathetic depictions and understandings of non-place that current treatments are not calibrated to register.

« L’expérience est la mise en question (à l’épreuve) dans la fièvre et dans l’angoisse, de ce qu’un homme sait du fait d’être ». Une telle manière de définir une « expérience » que Georges Bataille qualifie d’« intérieure », nous oblige à nous questionner autour des enjeux et de l’objet de la philosophie en tant que celle-ci réalise le nouage entre pensée et vie.Elle soulève, au fond, l’interrogation suivante : quel doit être l’être du sujet pour qu’il soit capable de vérité, quelles opérations doit-il faire sur lui-même afin de se transformer et de se rendre capable de vérité ?

Abstract:

La thèse porte sur l’ensemble de l’oeuvre poétique de James Sacré, poète français contemporain né en 1939 à Cougou (Vendée). Comme son titre l’indique, elle aborde les problématiques liées à la représentation poétique du paysage, de l’autre et de l’écriture elle même. Ces trois figures capitales de l’oeuvre constituent un socle à partir duquel se déploie laréflexion poétique de J. Sacré et sa pratique de l’écriture. Écriture pratiquée et figurée, donc, essentiellement comme relation désirante au monde, à autrui et à la langue. Aussi la réflexion tente d’aborder l’écriture poétique comme dynami

À partir de la trajectoire spécifique de Pedro de Ribadeneyra S.I. (1526-1611), à la fois personnalité centrale de la Compagnie de Jésus et écrivain réputé de son temps, cette thèse doctorale interroge les rapports complexes entre écriture, institution religieuse et pratiques littéraires. À cet égard, il faut appréhender Ribadeneyra non seulement comme une figure fonctionnelle de la Compagnie, mais aussi comme un écrivain aux prises avec une société qui ne se réduit pas forcément à celle de Jésus, afin de ressaisir la spécificité du religieux tolédan comme auteur.Croisant histoire de la Compag

Abstract:

Orange County is the traditional homeland of the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians, Acjachemen Nation. Though the tribal-nation is not federally recognized, it is a state and county recognized tribe. Development is a constant threat to Acjachemen ancestral homelands. The Acjachemen are faced with the problem that their ancestral sites are now other peoples' lands. Many Acjachemen sacred sites have already been developed, like the burial grounds at Putuidem. The four sacred sites I explore -- the Cogged Stone site at Bolsa Chica in Huntington Beach, California, Puvungna in Long Beach California,

This dissertation combines methods from literary history, book history and religious history in order to map formerly unknown regions of Hindi literary culture in early modern North India. By sketching the broad contours of the manuscript archive and also looking closely at the material aspects and histories of individual text artifacts including notebooks, anthologies, and scriptures, it reveals connections and distinctions between audiences, genres, and canons that could not otherwise be seen.

Abstract:

The research I present in this portfolio is broadly concerned with the programming, politics and ethics of secondary English and its teaching in New South Wales, my home state, and Australia in the years 2003 to 2013. It was undertaken in a time of significant curriculum change. These developments took place in a media and political context that was generating a good deal of comment and controversy, including strident criticism from some commentators and politicians of the quality of contemporary English teaching. The research specifically relates to the conditions of being for the secondary

Le rapport occidental moderne au sacré s’est transformé de façon importante au 20e siècle avec le processus de sécularisation. Cette désagrégation d’un sacré traditionnel laisse un vide – principalement existentiel et spirituel – là où auparavant certains contenus associés au sacré permettaient de se positionner dans et face à l’universel, c’est-à-dire d’occuper une place dans le monde et les institutions qui l’organisent et d’investir cette place d’un sens compris, accepté et partagé autant individuellement que collectivement.

Abstract:

L’œuvre de Nelly Arcan s’inscrit dans un pan de la littérature contemporaine accueillant les monstres comme figures de la transgression qui, par leur é-normité, interrogent la norme dont ils s’écartent. Ces êtres à la fois fascinants et inquiétants hantent la littérature depuis les récits fondateurs de la mythologie antique. Arcan, à l’instar de plusieurs femmes auteurs, recourt au procédé de la réécriture de plusieurs grands mythes grecs dans Folle (2004) et À ciel ouvert (2007). Dans les deux récits, elle met en scène des personnages en fuite qui, face à leur destin néfaste, se métamorphosen

Abstract:

This project explores music performance as a ritual, arguing that its performative form reflects and reinforces a particular worldview and its concomitant social structures and relations. It proposes a definition of a standard Western form of music performance, identifying it to be based on a duality of an active performer and passive audience, and suggests ways in which this form sponsors ‘everyday’ social structures and relations, emphasizing rationality and individuality. It follows this by proposing an alternative form of performance, one of active participation, that is seen to sponsor s
