Abstract:

A peça Doubt, a Parable (2004) de John Patrick Shanley revisita o mundo que ele conheceu quando criança – o bairro do Bronx dos anos 1960. A história se desenrola em uma comunidade escolar católica ítalo-irlandesa e o enredo diz respeito a uma dúvida – que se transforma em crença – por parte de uma das personagens, Irmã Aloysius, a diretora da escola. Ela acredita que o Padre Flynn esteja molestando sexualmente o único aluno negro da escola. A peça é uma construção em aberto, que permite a cada leitor/espectador construir sua própria interpretação dos fatos. Além de ser o autor da peça, Shanley também transformou seu texto teatral em roteiro para o cinema, e atuou como produtor da peça e roteirista e diretor do filme Dúvida, de 2008. Nesta dissertação examino as estratégias utilizadas por Shanley para manter a possibilidade de interpretação aberta quando ele traduz sua obra para mídias diferentes – na página, no palco, no cinema. Ao empreender tal análise, considero pertinente explorar padrões contemporâneos sobre questões como verdade, dúvida e certeza, porque as mesmas encontram-se imbricadas com o construto artístico examinado, favorecendo assim um olhar atento sobre o papel do autor e do leitor nesse processo. Para investigar as construções ideológicas que definem os elementos de dúvida e certeza, utilizo o conceito de Paradoxo do Imaginário, como proposto por Castor Bartolomé Ruiz (2003), dando especial atenção às questões relacionadas com o simbolismo da dúvida, tal como pode ser percebido na obra de Shanley.
John Patrick Shanley’s play Doubt - a Parable (2004) revisits the world he knew as a child, which is the Bronx of the 1960’s. The story centers upon a Catholic Irish-Italian school community, and the plot relates to a doubt - that grows into belief, and ends up as certainty - on the part of Sister Aloysius, the principal of the school, who is persuaded that Father Flynn, the vicar, has been harassing the only Black student in the school. The play is an open-ended construct, allowing each reader/spectator to build their own interpretation of the facts implied. Shanley is more than the author of the play. He has also worked as the producer of the play on the stage and he turned the story into a movie screenplay, Doubt, and has worked as a director to the movie. In this thesis I examine the strategies used by Shanley to keep the possibility of interpretation open as he translates his own work into different media, on the page, on the stage and on the screen. As I do that, I also consider the contemporary standards regarding issues as truth, doubt, certainty, especially as they constitute themselves aesthetically in the fictional world, thus reexamining the role of the author and the role of the reader in the process. So as to investigate the ideological constructions that define the elements of doubt and certainty I refer to the concept of “paradoxes of the imaginary” as proposed by Castor Bartolomé Ruiz (2003), with special attention to questions concerning the symbolism of doubt as perceived in Shanley.

Abstract:

En s'appuyant sur Tristram Shandy de Laurence Sterne, la thèse soutient que la littérature amorce l'intérêt philosophique porté par le 18ème siècle au concept d'identité. Après Locke et avec Hume, l'on ne croit plus guère au caractère immuable de l'identité. Celle-ci cesse d'être et l'homme s'effraie devant les immensités de ces virtualités. Le récit de vie se révèle tentative d'interroger la nature d'une individualité élusive. Aussi, le genre faussement autobiographique du roman impose-t-il comme une évidence de répondre à la question : qui "suis-je ?". Cette interrogation est reprise par le lecteur implicite qui s'immisce dans l'espace textuel à la fois pour figurer l'étranger avec lequel il faut bien compter mais surtout pour forcer à la réévaluation. Le concept d'identité s'envisage donc, en second lieu, sous l'angle du "qui es-tu ?". Cet étranger qui interroge sur soi dérange car c'est bien dans la démarche de se dire à lui que l'on se perd. Pourtant, la tentative de s'expliquer est le seul moyen d'y voir plus clair en soi. Il s'agit alors, dans un troisième temps, de s'intéresser à tout ce qui, dans la vie quotidienne, peut nourrir cette identité. Chaque anecdote, même banale, sert de révélateur et Tristram se laisse déplier à la manière d'une figure d'origami, indéfiniment. Reste que le temps, littéraire ou humain, ne peut contenir totalement une personnalité. L'identité d'un individu échappe partiellement à l'écriture et doit finalement s'envisager à l'échelle de l'humanité, dans quelque chose de l'ordre de ce que Kant aurait qualifié de "transcendantal", rendant la référence à l'humanité absolument nécessaire dans la définition du concept d'identité
Relying on the novel Tristram Shandy by Laurence Sterne, the PhD insists on seeing literature as the starting point of the 18 th century's philosophical interest in the concept of identity. After Locke and with Hume, man can no longer rely on identity for stability. This triggers distress, partially soothed by writing one's life, an attempt to question the nature of an elusive individuality. As we are concerned here with the mock-autobiographic genre, we first logically endeavour to answer the question : "who am I ?". The enquiry is given further implications when reiterated by an implicit reader who functions as a kind of impediment, meddling with the textual space in order to figure the stranger every individual has to do with and imposing reassessment. It follows that the concept of identity is scrutinized from the "you" point of view, asking the question "who are you ?". The Other is disturbing, for it is in the attempt to say oneself that the self is diluted. However, portraying ones singularity is also the only way to reach a better understanding of oneself. The third turning point of the reflection is thus concerned with all that, in everyday life, nourishes this identity. It insists on the efficiency of the roundabout way and of apparently trifling details, leading to Tristram's indefinitely unfolding, in the manner of an origami. But time, be it a literary or a human time, never fully encapsulates a personality. Identity, when individual, eludes writing. In the end, it has to be apprehended at the level of the humanity, in something that Kant would have called "transcendental", making the reference to humanity necessary in the definition of the concept of identity

Ha, Thang Long. "Behavioural ecology of grey-shanked douc monkeys in Vietnam." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2010. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/252209.

Full text

Abstract:

The grey-shanked douc monkey (Pygathrix cinerea) is an endemic primate to Vietnam found in 1997. The species is critically endangered with less than 1,000 individuals left in the wild. Research was conducted in Kon Ka Kinh National Park, Gia Lai Province Vietnam for 18 months. The monkeys were found in two forest types: (1) closed evergreen lower montane moist sub-tropical forest; (2) mixed broad-leaf and needle-leaf lower montane moist sub-tropical forest. Group size varied from 2 to 88 individuals; average group size was 14.8 individuals. There were four different social structures found in the encountered groups, including one-male unit (OMU), all-male unit (AMU), multi-male and multi-female group, and solitary group. Annual activity budget involved the monkeys spending the highest proportion of time resting (37.0%) and lowest feeding (11.9%). Seasonality significantly influenced the activity budget result, with increased resting and socialising in the wet season and decreased feeding and travelling. The emergent canopy layer and the main canopy layer in the forest are important for all activities. Trees in the height classes 15-19.9m were very important to the monkeys, since they involved more than 60% of feeding. Branches and boughs were used more often for resting and socialising, while twigs were used more often for feeding and travelling. The monkeys ate 49.5% young leaves, 21.9% ripe fruits, 19.1% unripe fruits and only 9.3% mature leaves. 166 plant species of 40 plant families were identified as foods of the monkeys. The monkeys ate mostly young leaves in the dry season (82%), but switched to fruits (~70%) in the wet season.

Full text

Abstract:

This research is an investigation into Hakka shange 客家山歌 (Hakka mountain songs) and their relationship with Hakka ethnicity, with principal discussions on the interplay between music making and ethnic/cultural identity in the Hakka populations. Hakka is a complex ethnic and cultural phenomenon which stepped into the limelight of history beginning in the 19th century. This study includes research into archival materials for an in-depth understanding of Hakka ethnicity and Hakka shange in the context of historical development, aiming to obtain new information/data and insights into historical data and theories documented by earlier studies. In this study, both synchronic and diachronic aspects are covered. Framed in an ethnomusicological paradigm, which posits music as part of culture and social life and utilises ethnography as a major means of gathering data, the study incorporates fieldwork carried out on location in Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland as an essential component. Seeing cultures as fluid and adaptable to outer forces rather than as a monolithic entity, the aim of this study is not to seize the “last opportunity” to preserve records of Hakka shange, before this musical tradition declines further into oblivion, but rather, to account for the processes by which traditional music adapts to the global system at various local levels. It is noteworthy that, in the local-global continuum, a society is not conceived as a static and structured system in which music is performed as a mere cultural marker that connects to or reflects the other structural parts of that society. On the contrary, a society is seen as a flexible and fluid social space in which music plays an active, transformational role.

Full text

Abstract:

The interjection of a new and dynamically different reading of Lawrence Sterne’s Tristram Shandy is imperative, if scholars want to clearly see many of the hidden facets of the novel that have gone unexamined because of out-dated scholarship. Ian Watt’s assumption that Sterne “would probably have been the supreme figure among eighteenth-century novelists” (291) if he had not tried to be so odd, and the conclusion that he draws, that “Tristram Shandy is not so much a novel as a parody of a novel” (291), is incorrect. Throughout the thesis, I argue that Sterne was not burlesquing other novelists, but instead, was engaging with themes that are now being examined by postmodern theories of Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, and Jean François Lyotard: themes like the impenetrability of identity (“Don’t puzzle me” (TS 7.33.633)), the insufficiency of language (“Well might Locke write a chapter upon the imperfections of words” (5.6.429)), and the unavailability of permanence (“Time wastes too fast” (9.8.754)). I actively engage with their theories to deconstruct unexamined themes inside Tristram Shandy, and illuminate postmodern elements inside the novel. However, I do not argue that Tristram Shandy is postmodern. Instead, I argue that if the reader examines the novel outside of its usual context inside the eighteenth-century novel, there are themes that are apparent in the narrative which have gone unexamined because of the way it has been classified inside academia, and that postmodernist theory allows for these themes to be re-examined in the postmodern culture in which we now reside.

Abstract:

With the increasing number of people studying online, self-aid learning platforms which help customers（users）study by themselves are more and more prevalent in China. Self-aid online learning is a relatively innovative field which has not been widely and thoroughly researched. This paper used Shanbay which is one of the largest self-aid English learning platforms in China as an example to investigate what and how factors influence customer satisfaction leading to their (re)purchase intention. Based on the previous models and empirical studies of some related fields, this paper outlined a new framework and generated eight propositions to explore these two research questions. Both free users and premium users of Shanbay were interviewed to gather the research material, and the data got from the interview were analyzed to develop the propositions. This paper found that positive service experience can facilitate customer satisfaction from their perceived utilitarian value and hedonic value. Among the proposed five factors influencing the two values, perceived usefulness was considered as the most important factor while perceived playfulness was the least one. What’ more, the relationship between customer satisfaction and (re)purchase intention was suggested to be positive in this paper.

Abstract:

La publication de tristram shandy par l. Sterne donna lieu a de nombreuses reactions: chacune des cinq livraisons (1759-67) provoqua la parution d'ecrits parasites. Plaquettes raillant le succes du nouvel auteur, volumes singeant son ecriture, strophes en son honneur dans les revues, tous accrurent la reputation sulfureuse de "tristram". Sterne y contribua lui-meme en publiant ses sermons sous le pseudonyme de yorick. C'est en 1760 que les reactions furent les plus nombreuses : les explanatory remarks furent suivies du clockmaker's outcry, si judicieux et bien informe qu'il est probablement de la main de sterne. Vinrent ensuite des recits qui imitent tristram shandy et adoptent son titre. La parution en livraisons ouvrait la voie aux faussaires: des faux volumes trois et neuf devancerent ceix de sterne. Les volumes authentiques sont compares aux apocryphes par une etude stylostatistique. Apres les travaux de ferriar (1798), sterne perdit sa reputation d'originalite. Les etudes recentes montrent que ses emprunts sont toujours transformes. L'examen des textes parasites revele que sterne puise chez ses imitateurs comme chez les classiques: il s'approprie certaines de leurs trouvailles et les incorpore a sa propre ecriture
The publication of tristram shandy by l. Sterne prompted many reactions: each of the five instalments (1759-67) spawned parasitic writings. Pamphlets jeering at the new author's success, volumes aping his writing, verse celebrating him in the magazines, all increased "tristram's" reputation of indecency. Sterne contributed to it by publishing the sermons under the pseudonym of yorick. The reactions appeared mainly in 1760: the explanatory remarks were followed by the clockmaker's outcry, so clever and well informed that it is probably by sterne himself. Then came fictions imitating tristram shandy and adopting its title. The publication by instalments opened the way for forgers: spurious volumes three and nine were publihed before sterne's own. The authentic volumes are compared to the forgeries in a stylometric study. After ferriar's work (1798), sterne lost his reputation of originality. Recent studies show that his borrowings are always transformed. A scrutiny of the imitations reveals that sterne uses his followers just as the classics: he appropriates some of their best ideas and incorporates them into his own writing

Abstract:

Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo analisar o romance A vida e as opiniões do cavalheiro Tristram Shandy (The life and opinions of Tristram Shandy, gentleman), do escritor irlandês Laurence Sterne, a partir de sua relação com a tradição e a ruptura desta, à luz de diversos teóricos que contribuirão para pensarmos as relações da obra principalmente com as noções de realismo, modernidade, metaficção, hibridismo de gênero, paródia, autoconsciência dentre outros elementos presentes na obra. Por tratar-se de um romance que tem por narrador e protagonista uma personagem que se posiciona como escritor de sua própria vida e opiniões, perpassa pelo texto a discussão das formas convencionais da literatura, bem como das diversas perspectivas teóricas sobre os gêneros literários. Diante disso, propomos investigar a estruturação do romance e estabelecer contrapontos com as tendências literárias do século XVIII. No mesmo sentido, ao estudarmos a estrutura heterogênea da obra, buscamos evidenciar o diálogo consciente que Sterne estabelece, a partir do modo pelo qual Tristram narra sua vida e sua composição romanesca, com elementos que são convencionais ao gênero teatral. Para isso, amparamos nossa discussão, primeiramente, em trabalhos acadêmicos e críticos sobre o romance em questão, dentre os quais, a título de exemplo, Jorge de Sena, Nícea Nogueira, Sérgio Paulo Rouanet e Luiz Costa Lima. Para pensarmos a composição híbrida da obra, bem como seu caráter dialógico e os elementos como paródia, intertextualidade e metaficção, nos orientamos pelas perspectivas teóricas de Mikhail Bakhtin e Linda Hutcheon; os trabalhos de Joan DeJean, Massaud Moisés e outros são utilizados para estudarmos as diversas perspectivas teóricas da literatura que se fazem presente na construção de Tristram Shandy, enquanto um movimento de recusa e aceitação das normas, num procedimento crítico e reflexivo; as teorias de Ian Watt, ao lado de outros diversos estudos, embasam a apresentação dos traços característicos da literatura inglesa do século XVIII e as transformações da noção de realismo na literatura, ao longo dos tempos; para entendermos a atuação da personagem do protagonista, que, enquanto narrador e escritor, desordena as convenções narrativas, nos pautamos nas perspectivas de Walter Benjamin e Theodor Adorno, entre outros, para refletirmos sobre suas formas. Por fim, para a análise da presença das formas teatrais no romance de Sterne, buscamos respaldo nas teorias de Umberto Eco, acerca da compreensão do leitor, elemento importante na obra do romancista, e dos autores que discutem os procedimentos em voga no período setecentista, como é o caso de Roger Chartier e do canadense Alexander Jhon Dick, com sua dissertação de mestrado, e demais pesquisadores que abordam as teorias do teatro e a interação com o leitor.
The aim of this research is to analyze the novel The life and opinions of Tristram Shandy, gentleman, written by the Irish Laurence Sterne, from its relationship with the tradition versus rupture, in light of several theories that will help us to see the relations between the novel and the conceptions about realism, modernity, metafiction, hybrid genre, parody, self-consciousness and other elements present in the work. As being a novel that has by narrator and protagonist a character, which is the writer of his own life and opinions, runs throughout the text the discussions about conventional forms of literature and also multiple theoretical perspectives on literary genres. Therefore, we propose to investigate the structure of the novel and stablish counterpoints with the literary trends of the eighteenth century. In the same way, by studying the heterogenic structure of the novel, we seek highlight the conscious dialogue that stablishes Sterne, from the way in which Tristram narrates his life and his novelistic composition, with elements that are conventional to the theatrical genre. For this, we support our discussion, first of all, in academic and critical works about the novel in question, among which, for example, Jorge de Sena, Nícea Helena de Almeida Nogueira, Sérgio Paulo Rouanet e Luiz Costa Lima. To think the hybrid composition of the novel, among its dialogical character and the elements like parody, intertextuality and metafiction, we are guided by the theoretical perspectives of Mikhail Bakhtin and Linda Hutcheon; the works of Joan DeJean, Massaud Moisés and others are used to our study of the various theoretical perspectives of literature that are present in the construction of Tristram Shandy, while a refusal movement and acceptance of standards, a critical and reflective procedure; theories of Ian Watt, alongside several other studies underlie the presentation of the characteristic features of English literature of the eighteenth century and the transformations of realism notion in literature throughout the ages; to understand the role of the protagonist's character, who, as narrator and writer, clutters the narrative conventions, we are based in the perspectives of Walter Benjamin and Theodor Adorno, among others, to reflect on their ways. Finally, to analyze the presence of theatrical forms in Sterne's novel, we support our point view by the theories of Umberto Eco, concerning the reader's understanding, an important element in the novelist's work, and also of the authors who discuss the procedures in vogue in the eighteenth century period, like Roger Chartier and the Canadian Jhon Alexander Dick, with his dissertation, and other researchers who discuss theories of theater and interaction with the reader/spectator.

Schwarz, Clair. "Shane Meadows : representations of liminality, masculinity and class." Thesis, University of the West of England, Bristol, 2013. http://eprints.uwe.ac.uk/20464/.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis offers a new approach to the work of the British filmmaker Shane Meadows. In contradiction to the conventional reading of his work as part of the long tradition of social realism in British cinema, this thesis offers a new approach which argues that the term ‘liminal realism’ best describes both the in-between nature of the texts and Meadows’ place in British screen culture. In order to construct this alternative reading of Shane Meadows, this interdisciplinary study draws upon work from anthropology, folk culture and myth to describe the particular ways in which Meadows’ work demonstrates liminality, most especially via the Jungian archetype of the trickster. The thesis argues that the figure of the trickster describes the cultural construct of the filmmaker himself which can be described as being in-between, whether critically positioned between the mainstream and art-house; between the cultural imaginaries of the British north and the south, residing in the liminal elsewhere of the Midlands; and moving between autographical and biographical registers, arguing how he responds to that positioning with a tricksterish sensibility. Focusing on the ways in which masculinity and class are represented, the thesis explores the centrality of homosociality in Meadows’ work, explaining how it demonstrates a particular dynamic of desire which operates between men. The first chapter identifies the reason existing paradigms for Meadows inadequately describe the particular, liminal quality of both Meadows’ films and the positioning of the filmmaker himself. Chapter Two explores the tradition of social realism in British cinema and how it works as a discourse. It goes on to argue why this conventional paradigm is not adequate as a way of understanding Meadows’ work. Chapter Three demonstrates how the production of the films is liminal, positioned between art-house and commerce, and how a reading of the body of the filmmaker as a text is a productive way to approach the representation of masculinity and class. Chapter Four analyses the film texts using a Jungian archetypal framework to explain the ways in which they are liminal. The study concludes that Meadows can be best understood through the concept of liminal realism, a new paradigm with potentially wider applications for analyses of screen culture.

Abstract:

The aim of the present thesis is to analyse how the narrative affects the various philosophical debates in Tristram Shandy and Jacques le fataliste. Contrary to what one expects from a philosophical novel, Sterne and Diderot do not impose upon the reader an authorial and authoritative discourse. Dominant discourses are constantly challenged and contradicted. The philosophical debates in both novels remain open and are left without a conclusion. The author's voice is but one amongst many others, and it is the narrative which maintains the dialogue between them by preventing one particular voice from invalidating the others. My argument hinges on Bakhtinian dialogism, which can be defined as the presence of interacting voices and views. In Tristram Shandy and Jacques le fataliste, dialogism occurs through the narrative structure allowing for the confrontation of the contradictory discourses in the philosophical debates, and enabling them to engage in dialogue, instead of establishing the authorial voice as the sole valid discourse in the text. Through those contradictions, the philosophical content takes on a different form, that of a refusal of systematic discourse. No dogmatic view is forced upon the reader. Sterne and Diderot do not offer a solution to the various philosophical questions debated in their novels. However, they do offer a philosophical method whereby the confrontation of contradictory ideas creates a dynamic for the pursuit of truth.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis explores and develops themes first outlined in my earlier MA dissertation, Two Sentimental Novels, and it should be noted that the argument set out in either study greatly augments and supports that of the other. After a brief review of Sterne's life, looking particularly at his familiarity with libertines, the study moves on to consider the long critical tradition that has associated Sterne's work with libertine and deistic ideas. The same themes are described as they occur in a selection of illustrations, including those from an early pornographic edition of Tristram Shandy, and the first section concludes with a brief review of the way Sterne himself has been seen by various critics to be making subtle allusions to unorthodox sources. This section strenuously critiques the notion that Sterne's work can be regarded as an expression of his professed Anglicanism. The second section first reviews three of Sterne's lesser-known compositions in which such ideas are also strongly noticeable, and after a short preamble on textual strategy, turns at last to Tristram Shandy. The remainder of the study comprises a close reading of the text, particularly those parts of it than deal with life at Shandy Hall. Close attention is paid throughout to chronology which is regarded as the dominant structuring principle, and mapped out fully in an appended table. This section offers a very radical reinterpretation of the text, challenging established ideas while noting many connections with the material explored in the first section. The argument accumulates and is presented as a series of character studies, each of which draws to its own conclusion, rather than towards a conventional concluding chapter.

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis examines and accounts for patterns of income maintenance among elderly shanty town residents in Greater Buenos Aires (GBA), Argentina. It uses a framework which includes both macro-level institutional responses to ageing (such as national pension and assistance programmes) and responses at the micro-level (individual and household strategies). First, the thesis accounts for the high proportion of elderly in Argentina and explains the origin of shanty towns in GBA. This is followed by an analysis of the evolution of official social security programmes at the national and local levels and the extent to which gaps in them have been filled by non-state institutions. Particular attention is paid to the up-grading of limited, pluralistic initiatives in the early twentieth century, the imposition of a public sector welfare monopoly in the 1940s and the gradual reintroduction of the voluntary and private sectors since the 1970s. Despite the development of a complex bureaucratic apparatus, the mismanagement of insurance funds and an inconsistent commitment to assistance financing prevented universal state protection for the elderly. Case studies of three shanty towns draw attention to the significance of community initiatives for elderly welfare. Whilst these perform a number of functions, they serve primarily as conduits for resources from supra-local state and non-state agencies. A questionnaire survey and semi-structured interviews demonstrate the economic dynamics of individual households containing elderly members. It is shown that most elderly combine income from a number of sources, including pensions, continued employment and family support and that the relative importance of these different sources is strongly influenced by their gender and labour histories. The significance of bureaucratic obstacles and disinformation in preventing access to support from state programmes is also highlighted.

Abstract:

The Christio-Conjure paradigm, a product of both Christianity and Conjuring, historically has provided an alternate set of ideologies for African Americans. As an ontological archetype, the Christio-Conjure paradigm is centered around a set of metaphysical phenomenon featuring various conventions such as religious/moral guidance, natural healing, and contact with spirits. To a large extent, the Christio-Conjure paradigm functions within a matriarchal network designed to extol the African American woman as the life force and mother of humanity. A corpus of African American women writers have exhibited a critical interest in the Christio-Conjure paradigm because of its cultural link with the past and because of the Afrofemcentric allure associated with this ancient, yet ever-active, African American tradition. Tina McElroy Ansa, Gloria Naylor, and Ntozake Shanqe are three authors who contribute to the matrix of African American women’s writing via their novels, Baby of the Family (1988), Mama Day (1989), and Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo (1982) respectively; each author functions as a literary Christio-Conjure woman, fashioning worlds of women richly impacted by the power of conjure.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis considers Laurence Sterne's Tristram Shandy in light of Friedrich Schlegel's concept of irony. Departing from previous criticism, which focuses on Sterne's playful narrative techniques, the discussion here elucidates other ways in which Tristram Shandy exemplifies the kind of irony Schlegel theorizes. These ways include: Sterne's "Mischgedicht" method, which amalgamates in a single work many types of style, or diverse permutations of form and content; the depiction of Parson Yorick, who epitomizes Socratic irony as Schlegel defines it in the 108th Lyceum fragment; Sterne's gentle satirizing of systematic thinkers, including his own narrator, Tristram; and Sterne's attitude toward words, knowledge, and reading. At the end of chapter 5, Sterne's irony is unraveled and reconstructed. This disentangling leads to a proposed refutation of recent interpretation of both Sterne and Schlegel. These studies see Sterne and Schlegel's irony as implying lack or flux of meaning. It is the strong contention of the following thesis that an essential aspect of Sterne and Schlegel's shared ironic world view is the continual, optimistic attempt to understand life, which necessarily presupposes a sincere and profound belief in both meaning and the reliable conveyance of it.

Abstract:

Ce travail analyse Tristram Shandy à partir de la pragmatique, et considère le texte comme un objet linguistique. Il explore donc l'usage du langage dans le roman. Un premier chapitre montre de quelle façon s'organisent les énonciations des personnages, et souligne leur inaptitude à communiquer. Le deuxième chapitre aborde la perspective du personnage-narrateur et de ses dispositifs énonciatifs en mettant en valeur la parente (linguistique) de Tristram avec les autres personnages. Le troisième chapitre, plus théorique, étudie ce non-fonctionnement général du langage dans le cadre du récit et en montre les conséquences sur la nature du texte. Le dernier chapitre élargit le débat en situant le roman au sein de la tradition linguistique du XVIIIème siècle et en faisant apparaitre un rêve linguistique de Tristram Shandy
The thesis deals with Tristram Shandy from the point of view of the philosophy of language, viewing the text as a linguistic object of analysis. It is an investigation of the use of language in the novel. The first chapter shows the organization of the characters' utterances, and emphasizes their inability to communicate with each other. A second chapter broadens the scope and shows, through the utterances of the narrator, Tristram's linguistic kinship with the other characters. The third, more theoretical, chapter deals with the general breakdown of communication within the framework of the novel and shows its consequences upon the nature of the text. The last chapter places the whole analysis within the context of eighteenth century linguistics and tries to underline the new approaches introduced by the novel

The objective of the study is to look at the social impact of development in relation to the relocation of people from an informal settlement to a formal settlement. This is demonstrated by illustrating how the context and flexibility of space influences the social and economic life of people. I show how the spatial flexibility with in, and the context of, an informal settlement enabled people to strategise around their living environment for their survival and well being. This contrasts with the disruption and disturbance to social and economic life in the formal settlement to which they were relocated. Evidence for my argument emerges from ﬁeldwork carried out in the Western Cape between March and June 1997, firstly in the Marconi Beam informal settlement and secondly amongst the same people in their new formal settlement, Joe Slovo Park.

Abstract:

Tristram Shandy de Laurence Sterne (1713-1768) reste un texte déroutant et original, plus de deux siècles après la mort de son auteur. Cette thèse s’attache à analyser les points de contact possibles entre le texte de Sterne et les gravures qui furent publiées et insérées dans des éditions entre 1760 et 1817. L’illustration puise à la source du texte tout en reflétant l’esthétique des divers artistes. Les gravures dans les éditions illustrées sont également le témoignage de changements dans la culture de l’imprimé et de l’histoire du livre durant les deux dernières décennies du XVIIIe siècle. Une première partie s’articule sur la circularité entre le texte et l’image. L’analyse met au jour des mécanismes de migration et de porosité entre les deux media. La seconde partie s’attache à déterminer les différentes formes que peut revêtir la notion de variabilité. La réflexion et déflexion entre le texte et l’image sont au cœur de cette étude, mais les images et le texte de Sterne sont aussi appréhendés comme le lieu d’une tension, celle qui caractérise l’irréductibilité des deux media. C’est ce qui fait l’objet de l’étude dans la troisième partie. L’étude vise à mieux cerner les jeux et les enjeux qui sous-tendent l’illustration d’un texte aussi foisonnant que Tristram Shandy
Laurence Sterne’s Tristram Shandy remains an oddity, well over two hundred years after the author’s death. This thesis explores the relationship between the text and a corpus of illustrations to Tristram Shandy from 1760 to 1817. Illustrations that are offsprings of Sterne’s text are also rooted in each artist’s aesthetic response. Those images are moreover closely related to the book trade and changes in print culture in the last decades of the eighteenth century. The first part deals with the impact of illustrations, namely how those images migrate from a model to imitations and new creations. A fundamental pattern of circularity is established between the verbal and the visual to see how the images bear traces of text in a variety of ways. The analysis in the second part draws on the notion of variability, whether in format of the book or within the narrative. This thesis argues that prints which accompany the text deflect the reader’s interpretation and reception. Furthermore, there is a mutually mirroring effect on both the text and the images. Although a kind of perfect harmony between the two medium may seem appealing, text and image do not dovetail. The argument aims at pinpointing paradoxical features of that relationship, more so when it comes to illustrating a text as zany and fluctuating as Tristram Shandy

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis argues that the narratives of the eighteenth-century novels selected for this study demonstrate a conscious manipulation of time and space, and that the consequence of this manipulation is to provide the reader with a unique literary journey through the text. The thesis, in its analysis and comparison of these distinctive journeys, chooses to focus on the narrative techniques which facilitate or hamper progression and continuity within the texts. It particularly concentrates on the impact of these narrative techniques on the reading experience. The first chapter studies and compares texts resorting mainly to the present tense with those predominantly written in the past tense. It examines the effects of the tense used in the narration on the reader's engrossment in the fiction. The second chapter concentrates on the repercussions of the author's choice of a beginning and an ending for his story on the nature of the progression of the narrative. The third chapter is devoted to the destabilising reading journey offered by Tristram Shandy. It examines the numerous techniques which react against continuity and progression in time and in space, and the narrator's motivation behind their use. It shows how the narrative choices of Tristram Shandy place the reader face to face with his own act of reading. The fourth and final chapter is concerned with the role and the status of fictional footnotes in some eighteenth-century prose fictions. It demonstrates the fictional nature of the footnotes in Tom Jones. It argues that fictional footnotes affect the reader's progression across the text in time and in space as well as his understanding of the work of fiction, and this in a fundamental way.

O objetivo deste estudo ? fazer uma an?lise estrutural da obra do autor irland?s Laurence Sterne (1713-1768), A Vida e as Opini?es do Cavalheiro Tristram Shandy (The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman), publicada em 1760 e respons?vel por representar uma verdadeira revolu??o est?tica num g?nero liter?rio que j? vinha se consagrado no s?culo XVIII na Inglaterra: o romance. Rompendo com no??es est?ticas predominantes do g?nero romanesco de sua ?poca, Sterne apresenta em sua obra uma narrativa fragmentada, com cap?tulos incompletos e fora de ordem, intermin?veis digress?es e um narrador cuja confiabilidade ? constantemente colocada em quest?o. Partindo da complexidade proporcionada pelas inova??es est?ticas de Sterne, investigaremos as diversas formas pelas quais o autor quebra a narrativa em seu romance. Essas quebras possuem como principal objetivo provocar nos seus leitores uma sensa??o constante de estranhamento e frustra??o, de modo que para se compreender Tristram Shandy ? necess?rio por parte do leitor deixar de lado uma leitura passiva e passar a trabalhar em conjunto com o pr?prio narrador do romance, Tristram, para, dessa forma, compreender as inten??es por tr?s da narrativa fragmentada e ca?tica de Sterne, as quais possuem o prop?sito de provocar o riso e a reflex?o, al?m de revelar uma vis?o sat?rica e cr?tica da sociedade puritana inglesa do s?culo XVIII. Para a an?lise deste trabalho, observaremos as t?cnicas est?ticas e narrativas utilizadas por Sterne que t?m por finalidade causar o estranhamento e alterar a percep??o do leitor, como a fragmenta??o do romance, as mudan?as de ritmo na narrativa e a parodiza??o. Al?m disso, analisaremos como o riso ? provocado atrav?s da carnavaliza??o e da erotiza??o. Por fim, falaremos um pouco sobre os recursos gr?ficos utilizados pelo autor de modo a manter sua marca autoral na obra. Usaremos como base te?rica estudos de Chklovsky (1978), Lotman (1978), Bakhtin (1993), Genette (1995), Reis e Lopes (2000), Arag?o (1980), entre outros. Conclu?mos que as rupturas na narrativa de Sterne possuem o objetivo de criar uma obra capaz de dar aos seus leitores uma experi?ncia ?nica de leitura, revelando por tr?s de sua narrativa fragmentada uma obra de poderosa cr?tica e s?tira social, al?m de um senso de humor extremamente cr?tico e inovador.
The goal of this study is to do a structural analysis of the work of the Irish author Laurence Sterne (1713-1768), The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, published in 1760 and that was remarkable for representing a true aesthetic revolution in a literary genre that was already renowned on the 18th century in England: the novel. Breaking with the predominant aesthetical notions of the romanesque genre of his time, Sterne shows in his work a shattered narrative, with incomplete, out of order, chapters, endless digressions and a narrator whose trustworthiness is constantly put in question. Starting from the complexity brought by Sterne?s aesthetical innovations, we will investigate various ways by which the author breaks the narrative in his novel. Those breaks have as main goal to provoke in his readers a constant sensation of strangeness and frustration, so that in order to understand Tristram Shandy it is necessary that the reader forgoes a passive reading and starts to work alongside with the author himself, Tristram, so that they may understand the intentions behind Sterne?s shattered and chaotic narrative, which seeks to provoke laughter and reflection, plus revealing a satirical and critic view of the English puritan society of the 18th century. For the analysis of this novel, we will investigate the aesthetical techniques and narratives used by Sterne that seek to cause strangeness and alter the reader?s perception, like the fragmentation of the novel, the changes in the rhythm of the narrative and the process of parody. Furthermore, we will analyse how the laughter is performed through the carnivalization and the erotization, and finally we will discuss a little about the graphical techniques are used by the author to reclaim his authorial property in his work. As our theoretical basis, we will use the studies by Chklovsky (1978), Lotman (1978), Bakhtin (1993), Genette (1995), Reis and Lopes (2000), Arag?o (1980), among others. We conclude that the ruptures of the narrative on Sterne?s work aim to create a work able to give to its readers a unique reading experience, revealing a work of powerful criticism and social satire behind its shattered narrative, as well as an extremely critic and innovating sense of humour.
