Abstract:
Although several Chaucer scholars have argued for the last four tales of the Canterbury Tales as a concluding sequence, it has not been generally recognized that Chaucer ends his book deliberately and skillfully beginning with the Second Nun's Tale. Through the concluding stories Chaucer disengages himself and his audience from the fiction making of the Tales, moving toward his own voice in the Retraction, and he introduces themes of transformation in tales concerning the conversion of souls (Second Nun), the transmutation of metals through alchemy (Canon's Yeoman), the metamorphosis of Apollo's crow (Manciple), and the transforming powers of contrition and penitence (Parson, Retraction). The consistency of these closure themes provides evidence for the authority of the Ellesmere manuscript as against the highly regarded and recently published Hengwrt manuscript of the Tales, which has a different concluding tale order and which does not contain the Canon's Yeoman's Tale.

Abstract:
Welsh author Arthur Machen (1863–1947) wrote his most popular supernatural tales between 1890 and 1900, a period in which European culture felt itself to be on the decline and in which “decadent” art and literature rose up both as a reflection of and a contribution to this perceived cultural deterioration. While Machen's works have received little critical attention, a recent revival of interest in fin-de-siècle decadence has brought his supernatural tales into the literary limelight. Noteworthy examples of this interest include Julian North's treatment of The Great God Pan in Michael St. John's Romancing Decay: Ideas of Decadence in European Culture and Christine Ferguson's analysis of the same work in her PMLA article “Decadence as Scientific Fulfillment.” Indeed, Machen's supernatural tales could enhance and complicate any exposition of decadent literature and culture; they offer a unique vision of descent into the primordial that differs from the moral and psychological treatment of decadence in other popular works of the time, such as Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray and Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Like Stevenson and Wilde, Machen employs themes of transgression and metamorphosis to illustrate his characters’ deviations from human nature. However, the forces at work in Machen's tales do not arise from the recesses of the human mind in its modern conception, nor do his protagonists sin primarily against society and the arbitrary nature of its morals and values. Instead, Machen locates mythic forces at work within his contemporary society to highlight a much older form of transgression and to challenge notions of degeneration that held currency at the end of the nineteenth century.

Abstract:
A storehouse of narratives can be found within the literature which emerged from and gave expression to the spiritual developments in sixteenth-century Safed. These include legends, moral tales and exempla, anecdotes, and parables which can be garnered from the volumes of the kabbalistic ethical works and other literature of the sixteenth, seventeenth, and early eighteenth centuries. In this study we shall seek to explore two such narratives of that period, stories which, while quite different from one another in character, both draw upon much earlier narrative traditions which have been subtly but radically remolded. The immediate aim of tracing the prehistory of these two stories and their routes of metamorphosis and of comparing the Safed stories with the sources which lie behind them is to clarify the literary and historical significance of the two narratives in the precise form which they acquired in the Safed experience. On a broader scale, such exploration might serve to exemplify the transformation of narrative traditions under the impact of a worldview and a cultural-spiritual milieu.

Abstract:
The metamorphosis of man to beast has fascinated audiences for millennia. The werewolves of medieval literature were forced to conform to the Church's view of metamorphosis and, in so doing, transformed from bestial and savage to benevolent and rational. Analysis of Marie de France's Bisclavret, the anonymous Arthur and Gorlagon, the Irish tale The Crop-Eared Dog, and the French roman d'aventure Guillaume de Palerne reveals insight into medieval views of change, identity, and what it meant to exist in the medieval world. Each of these tales is told from the werewolf's point of view, and in each the wolf undergoes a fury or madness where he cannot seem to help turning savage and harming people. This 'rage of the wolf' lies at the root of the identities of these werewolves, reflecting the conflict between good and evil, the physical and the spiritual, and Church doctrine and a rapidly changing society.

Abstract:
Ce travail porte sur les origines et les évolutions du conte merveilleux et de sapoétique, à travers l’étude privilégiée de la métamorphose. Le genre, issu de lalittérature orale, se caractérise en effet par une histoire littéraire tout particulièrement faite de transformations, de récritures et d’appropriations diverses, au gré du changement des mentalités, d’un élargissement des modes de diffusion et d’une ouverture aux littératures étrangères. En outre, les transpositions du conte à d’autres domaines que celui de l’écrit, tels que l’image et la scène, participent de l’évolution d’une poétique merveilleuse qui se définit en premier lieu comme poétique démonstration. Dans cette perspective, un deuxième versant de notre travail s’intéresse à la manière dont le cinéma – en prise de vues réelles et, surtout, d’animation (graphique) – a pu s’emparer du conte dès le tournant du XXe siècle, et met en lumière un certain nombre d’apports figuratifs (relevant principalement de la métamorphose et d’un jeu sur le voir et le non voir) à la poétique d’un genre dont il perpétue par ailleurs la structure narrative forte
This work retraces origins and developments of fairy tales and its poetic, focusing on the metamorphosis. The history of this literary genre, born trough oral tradition, is especially composed of numerous changes, re-writings and various appropriations,according to mentalities, development of mass dissemination methods and study of foreign literatures. In parallel, fairy tales transpositions to others non-written domains,like theatre and pictures, confirms that the fairy tales poetic is primarily pictureoriented.In this perspective, the second part of our work focuses on how cinema(through live-action images and, especially, graphically animated images) has been inspired from fairy tales since early 20th century, and highlights a couple of figurative contributions (mostly based on metamorphosis and a game between visible and non visible) to the poetic of this genre, while it also perpetuates its strong narrative structure
