Ouattara, Tiona Ferdinand. "Tradition orale, initiation et histoire : la société Senufo et sa conscience du passé." Paris 1, 1991. http://www.theses.fr/1991PA010595.
Full textBased on oral and written sources, this thesis aims at favouring a better knowledge of the Senufo society. In fact, it shows a triple vision of the senufo world. In the first section, i have tackled the problems of generic terms and moral features attributed to the Senufo of Cote d'Ivoire. I have also analysed these external peoples' perception of the social structure and the initiatory institutions of the Senufo. In the second section, i have analysed the Senufo's concepts of history, the functioning of history in the Senufo society and the Senufo's perception of their historical personality. In the last section, I have tried to rebuild the history of the senufo on the basis of universal chronology. I have analysed the constitution process of the senufo historical personality, the questioning of their personality and finally the Senufo people's search for their lost identity. The general conclusion closes up on setting the limits of this work and opens other ways of research for the future
Ba, Aminata. "L'introduction des medias modernes au sein de sociétés de l'oralité (Mali, Mauritanie, Niger, Sénégal)." Rennes 2, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996REN20015.
Full textIn the early sixties, when most of the African states became independent, it was believed that the advent of new information technologies would give opportunities to developping countries. The main objective was the eradication of illiteracy by the means of modern communication technologies, such as educative television and rural broadcasting. At present results, look disapointing. During the introduction of these technologies, which were not really adapted for developing countries, the social and cultural realities of these countries as well as the impact of oral transmittance were ignored. Today, the link between oral transmittance and modern media is to be evaluated differently when considering urban or rural areas. The complementarity between the two communication systems functions in the urban areas because oral aspects (proverbs, tales. . . ) Persist in urban communities. In the rural areas, imported media are often percieved as belonging to the entertainment sector and this for two main reasons : - the high illiteracy rates, which encourage the traditional forms of knowledge acquirement, - the inadequate infrastructure that hampers development of communication facilities. The multiple consequences of this are : growing disparity between the urban area and the country side, unequal development of communication facilities and an increase of the communication gap between citizens from the same country. This situation creates a society in which, part of the citizens can develop a worlwide view while others have only access to a restricted choice of information channels

Full textThe triumph of occidental values since the shock of colonisation has obliged the Malinke griots of West Africa to reposition themselves in front of a fragmented society that tends to contest the usefulness of traditional values. Thus, the question of their status and legitimacy needs to be raised. This thesis is organised in two main parts and aims to determine the present role of griots today, not only among their original socio-cultural environment but also as migrants, in a changing and multicultural urban environment. The first part intends to analyse Malinke griots who live and "practice" in Mali, in order to understand them in their everyday traditional environment. The second part discusses the "uprooted" griots of Paris in particular who have decided to conquest the world
Sow, Abdoul Aziz. "Essai de typologie des genres poétiques peuls (Mauritanie-Sénégal)." Paris 4, 1998. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA040181.
Full textThe purpose of this PhD deals with oral Fulani poetry from the Fouta-Toro (Mauritania - Senegal) and is composed of three parts. In the first part, a sociological approach brings into relief the role and function of each of the social classes that are the generating of this literature. A brief survey of works already written on Fulani literature has put an emphasis on the specificity of the former in each Fulani cultural area. Starting from the local taxinomy of poetic genres, this thesis has achieved a typology of poetic genres by showing that poetry is produced in a specific context that regulates its performance and its reception. Poetic genres have had as a main axis of development the social classes that compose the Fulani society of Fouta-Toro. In the third and final part, the literary analysis illustrates two major aspects of this poetry. Rhythm is so far as poets use various means to create. Furthermore, it is the vector of an ideology proper to the social groups to which it is linked with

Full textThis thesis is assigned, as the terms and conditions of research to define specific modes of appearance and operation of the epic in the historical Chronicle and the songs of exaltation in honour of Emperor Bakari II, represented as the "discoverer" of America before Columbus. The text is a bilingual version consisting of a transcript in Mandinka language and a French translation. Singing its achievements, the griot is the praise of the heroic qualities of the character and nature of the emotions aroused by his daring to go to the onslaught of the waves of the Atlantic Ocean. A text that presents itself as a simple appearance, epic intonation is assigned to it even though it can be called 'neo epic’. Certainly the epic was necessary with regard to the choice of an aesthetic of orality that allows to establish 'unadorned' history, the heroic and wonderful deeds. We have here, the definition of epic registry and noble style associated with it in the rhetoric, which is followed by the work. First of all, we have tried to look on the Foundation of the Mande, from the origins to the advent of Sundiata Keita, founder of the empire and the social composition and the political organization of the Mali Empire. This thesis confirms, along with other ethnographic studies, that medieval Mandingo society is organized around three poles strongly hierarchical, endogamous and specialised: the horon, the nyamakala and the jon. Before transcribing malinke language, then translate them into French songs-rhythms of praise of Fa Bukari, we revisited Maghan Sundiata epic cycle which is accompanied by the Chronicle of the Emperor of Mali, Aboubakari II. To conclude, we discussed stylistic and semantic properties that revolve around the figure of the epic poet, poetry form, epic speech, the special rhythmic of epic speech, without concealing the prospects of many research that open in the field of oral literature, in general and the epic of Bakari II, in particular that contains an entire domain to explore

Full textThis study focusses on the sung satirical poetic duel as a genre for conflict management, given its penchant for invective and criticism. Beginning with an overview of basic orality and performance theories, it proceeds through more specific issues concerning the relation between oral performance and its written record, the role of translation, the theory of game and the concepts of dialogue and satire, to a triptych comprising the African "halô" chant-poem, the medieval Portuguese "cantigas de escàrnio e maldizer", and the Brazilian "peleja". A brief account of social history precedes the textual analysis of samples of each poetic tradition, while a comparative chapter attempts a review of the question of obscenity and vulgarity within the specific context of the aesthetics of the satirical duel
Mountali, Joseph. "Le sacré de la tradition orale à la littérature écrite en Afrique subsaharienne." Nice, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1995NICE2041.
Full textWe have analyzed the clearness of the sacred from oral tradition to written literature in subsaharian africa. For sur the live of an african has even since been regulated by a set of values governed by the sacred, the visible and the invisible. When we proceeded with analyzing the main props "piliers" of the orality, through which the sacred manifests itself, we did not focuss our mind only on africa; we also extended our instigations towards other primitive peoples beyond the african continent frontiers. This strategy has unabled us find out the universal aspect of myths tales and legends. Our particular interest in exploiting the sacred is a ginuine expression of the desire of any african not to break with his cultural past. The same desire is even the basement of the birth of the negritude a literary movement said to be of "revolt". For any african, nothing is as important as the sacred. His life issued from the natural and the supernatural
Agyei-Kye, Lot. "Le conte akan : une étude sémio-linguistique." Besançon, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005BESA1010.
Full textThis dissertation which is a sémio-linguistic study of Akan tales, examines the passage from the oral to the written state of Akan tales especially through the processes of transcription and translation and the problems that the researcher encounters. Among the problems identified is that of “alteration” due to reformulation and trans-coding of the original text belonging to a people with a different “conception of the world”. The basis of the work is the theories of Jean Peytard, George Mounin, Edward Sapir, Benjamin Lee Whorf and Genevieve Calame-Griaule It further looks at the structural analysis of Akan tales in particular the notion of “polyphony” as underlined in the works of earlier researchers like Vladimir Propp, Jean Michel Adam and Denise Paulme among others. Finally, the work looks further at the notion of “variation” in the Akan tale examining the factors that cause these changes with regards to changes emanating from the same teller and those from different tellers. Earlier observations made by Annikki Kaivola-Bregenhoj and Veronika Karady-Gorog among others, are considered in this analysis
Diabate, Mansa Makan. "Transcription et analyse de textes de tradition orale malinke (textes de K'el'emonson Diabat'e)." Grenoble 3, 1990. http://www.theses.fr/1990GRE39010.
Full textThe rare attested texts on malinke oral tradition are either adaptations or of poor quality as concerns their trancription or their translation. Such documents are exclusively for the use of scholared publics. In our study, based no two narrations by kelemonson diabate, a compromise is proposed to satisfy both the specialized linguist ans the simple speaker tautht in bambara. Thus firstly, after clarifying certain phonological points that were ignored in b. Keita's thesis, we propose, for the first text, a presentation that rigorously takes into account all linguistic factors : phonetic transcription, underlying representation (a morphophonological inquiry), literal transcription, french translation of each phrase. Such approaches give this text its technical value reserved exclusively for professional linguists. Secondly, the latter text is presented together with another one in a graphy inspired by the above mentionned approaches ; i. E. A graphy which is rigorous on the linguistic level, but with an oral transcription nonetheless of easy access to mandinka speakers that had prior reading training in their language, and to oral literature specialists. This transcripion is a loyal restitution of the phrases that were actually pronounced, and the given translation (in french) remains as close as possible to the storyteller's version. Such a study has allowed us

Full textMvett is an oral epic of the "fang-bulu-beti" people. It is generally declaimed during the ritual ceremony closing the mourning period for a man. Mvett then pertains to the category of initiatory texts as it is mainly about the quest for immortality through which appears the mortal/immortal duality. In this connection, mvett encompasses everu aspect of the epic genre : textual density, lyricism and the dramatic system. Most of all, its main discursive strategies are based on such tropes as the hyperbole and the metaphor. The hyperbole is the key to understanding the meaning of mvett. Here, we have studied three types of hyperbole : the verbal hyperbole is analyzed in connection with the notion of ascetism of silence, the visual hyperbole is about the conception of power and the pre-eminence of mind and the axiological hyperbole translates the willingness to control our Mortal side made up of human passions. As for the metaphor, it is used in mvett to explain a number of concepts : the first category of metaphors refers to the concept of "Byang éning", whereas alchemical complex or telescoped metaphor illustrates it. "Byang éning" or "universal medicine" should then be considered the source of Immortality and "Fek éning" the Way leading to it

Full textNetiher its in the nature of speech to be anti scientific nor the scripture to be scientific ? the developed countries had invested in the necessity of written communication, it was not the same for negro-african populations. A such ascertainement gave birth to an idea commonly admited in the developed countries, that there is no sens in speech unless written and no valuable action unless commended by the scripture. Il other words all the populations without written word are suppose to be without any culture or cultures. This is the logis perhaps coherent, but it is not the logic of every body, because to day, there are a lot of societies on our planet, those do not fonction according to this logic, and the bavoungou of gabon are on of them. If it is undeniable that a power fixed through written word is more firm, more useful, and more susceptible to be modified, its true also that unique use of speech is not a symbole of systematic cultural, economic, and technologic backword ness in the word. The societies those had since long tine adopted the systeme of written word are not all very placed in front of present century's stake, and the others those never adopted the written word seems to be a waken before the to day's realities. If the scripture is the ideal vector of culture distinction of a society, it is not possible to confirme that this way is the only way of salvation on the route of elysee

In songs and tales found in the popular oral literature, in informal or historic discourses, suffering appears as a marker of identity. The heterogeneity of these representations reflects differing positions of social actors in society

Full textThere is genuine continuity between the congolese oral tradition and literature penned in the french linguage by the writers of our time : continuity in "collage" form. On the one hand they are the well-known african literary genres such as songs, tales, proverbs, myths, legends, parables and yarns and, on the other, a type of veneer drawn from the maternal bantu languages : ladi-kongo, munukutuba (kikongo), lingala, vili, bembe, mbochi (mbosi), and the other. . . Effectively, since the ivory cast writer ahmadou kourouma launched his renowned novel sun of independence (heinemann educator), an african form of "nouveau roman" has come into being, not perhaps to the compared with michel butor's passing time (jupiter bks) : yet a distinct manner of "nouveau roman" none the less. It embodies a series of works that stand apart, headed by Sony Labou Tansi, closely followed by Henri Lopes, Sylvain Bemba, Tchitchelle Tchivela, and Emmanuel Boundzeki-Dongala. While each one retains his individuality. They embellish their texts lexical and grammatical features, known elsewhere "africanisms" and locally "congolisms"

Full textGuinean griots state: "In the beginning of the world creation there was the word and the end there will always be the word". Thus we notice that all times, the word has been the Manding man's receptacle. From his birth, he has been nourished by the word. He has been filled by the word and his initiatory paths have been marked by it. He has been structured by it during his maturation and it has lead his social life. At the Manding man's death, the word contributes to elaborate the social and kinship group's morning work. Consequently the word supports the ethnic code to exist and so to make the others exist

Full textThis thesis is to variability in rewriting four versions of the Mandingo epic. By referring to comparison differential initiated by Ute Heidmann (2005) who defend an approach to no-hierachizing texts, this thesis proposes to put an evidence variability indices in the diversity of their textual forms. These are generated by different enunciative sources including the figure of the griot representing different characters, the description of some historical facts and nature, featuring as it sees fit cut and thrust. Finally, the variability indices refer to the different editions of the same text of the Mandinka heritage literature. Based on the corpus, this study explores the variables that represent editorial movement places inducing shifts in meaning sometimes due the rivalry between the griots, authors of the performance

Full textAs a result of the critical examination of ifa and Evuzok medical system, this dissertation shows the stakes and challenge of a confrontation between african knowledge and modern science. Increasing the value of the African knowledge and practices undeniably requires an audacious counter-appraisal which modern science can validly serve a reference mark for. But it also requires an attention as audacious as well for representations and techniques that science can yet not validate, but which can provide alternatives or complementary ways of interpretation, comprehension and mastery of real. Anthropology of knowlegde could also free itself from the narrow perspective consisting in choosing betwween the two usual major positions, each as mutilating as the other, that are on one hand the research and valuation of the exoyic, and on the other, the identification and the aithentification of the same. It could also serve as a starting point for a crossed epistemology of endogenous knowledge and modern science, able to sow the limits and gaps, as well as the potentialities of the two systems and increase, by the way, the aptitude of human to decode and dominate the real

Full textThis work examines a full version of the Fulani epic from Fuladu, which the author collected, transcribed from Fulani and translated into French. Its shows a three-cycle structure centered on three figures: a Fulani Muslim of great holiness, Sayku Umar; a hero who establishes Fulani power against that of the Mandinka, Alfaa Moolo; and finally, his son, Musa Moolo, who consolidates the power conquered by his father. The canvas-type narrative proposed by Lilyan Kesteloot and Bassirou Dieng based on "Soundjata ou l'épopée mandingue" edited by Djibril Tamsir Niane does not apply the first cycle, while it applies to each of the last two parts, be it with their own rearrangements. The analysis is limited to the second cycle, the one of Alfaa Moolo, because it has more specifics related on the one hand to the history of the Fulani community in Fuladu and on the other hand to the intermediary place that he occupies between the two other figures. This is an analysis of first hand data collected in the field, which brings to the attention of everyone a story unknown until now

Full textIn the tradition of other African studies, the present thesis is about the acknowledgement of the legend and its different ways of spotting it as a kind in the Soninke literature panorama, a raised question through all the African oral literature. Though already acknowledged as a sort of speech the legend fulfils an aesthetic and social role. Nevertheless, it is often confused and assimilated to with other kinds of literature such as the tale, the myth and the fable. The legend hasn’t got yet a defined domain unlike the other forms of oral literature. Both a theoretical and a practical approach were used to close in on the legend and to bring out its characteristics in the Soninke context which is marked by the river narrations. I established and analysed a corpus composed of unheard recitals collected in the villages alongside the Senegal River. It revealed the crocodile as a highly symbolic animal. It is the matter of all concerns either as a predator or a tutelary guardian (demigod?) and it nourishes the river side populations’ imaginary. Studying these recitals allowed me to set the legend into the system as well as in the chronology of Soninke literature. The legend is a hybrid of morphological traits of the tale, myth, epic and urban legend. It developed a fascinating specificity and at the same time rising the question of the evolution of kinds in African oral literature, beyond any other approach

Full textNjeddo Dewal, Kaïdara, Koumen, L'éclat de la grande étoile - these are the titles of Fulani initiatory tales passed on by the Malian writer Amadou Hampâté Bâ. Through crossing and questioning these materials, we have tried to address the issues linking culture, orality and writing. What is being said about men and culture in the passage from the oral to the written transmission of founding texts? Choosing to study initiatory tales of young Fulani shepherds - an oral material playing a significant social and cultural role for the individual and the community - what status should be conferred upon these tales once they are written and published? Can then this new form of tales be considered as a source of ethnological knowledge of Fulani culture? What is the literary, initiatory and ethnological work achieved by author Hampâté Bâ, so as to make these written tales both pieces of expression of a culture and structuring elements of initiation? Thus our research through pages have led us to perceive the tales as a creation to the glory of the Bovidae, containing the sacred words and the knowledge necessary to the weaving of the bond between the Fulas and their culture’s cement element - the cow. By collecting and putting the tales in writing, Hampâté Bâ reiterates this attachment, but even more preserves and reveals the literary and cultural wealth they are linked with. True the tale is indeed a phenomenon whose justification is pleasure, that is enjoying exchange and circulation. However it is within its permanence, its curves and its variations that the tale takes its full scope and draws the strength enabling it to carry the culture that creates it

The author examines oral tradition related to the origin of the craft aims at reconstructing the historical changes of this practice since the first contact with the Europeans in the 18th century. Drawing on a 18 months of field work, this thesis gives an ethnographical description of the organisation of the profession of traditional tattooist (tufuga ta tatau) and studies its ritual aspects. Technical process (the making of the tattooing tools and their use) are analysed in relation with indigenous categories of thinking and "milieu technique" (Leroi-Gourhan). Then, this work proposes to understand the social relevance of Samoan tattooing in broader cultural setting by comparison with the tattooing institution of Wallis, Futuna, Tonga, and Rotuma. Eventually, the modern impact of Samoan Diaspora and western clientele is considered as a major factor of change
Fromonteil, Alice. "L'art de raconter à Uvea (Wallis, Polynésie occidentale) : une topologie narrative." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019AIXM0249.
Full textBased on ethnographic fieldwork on 'Uvea (Wallis, Western Polynesia), this thesis concerns the “art of storytelling” (fakamatala) in order to explore the way in which this activity inscribes the narrator and the enunciators in a shaped, experienced and lived spatio-temporal framework. It examines the conditions, modalities and effects of narrative practices, at a time when a series of transformations is profoundly changing local society, particularly the status of speech and the organization of land tenure which, with no land registry, relies on orality. A bilingual corpus containing a hundred oral accounts recorded, transcribed and then translated with Wallisians is presented in a second volume. In the wake of linguistic anthropology, this thesis regards the spoken arts as social performances, taking as its main theme the forms of expression used by narrators to link storytelling and staging. The topological approach developed makes it possible to encompass the different scales of analysis in order to consider the meaning of experiences and constitutes the theoretical tool used to examine the interactions observed and the narrative processes identified. This is how the subject studied will be seen, based on the case of Wallisian orators who make verbal art a powerful rhetorical and emotional vector in order to appropriate their language, land, and history, recalling the necessity of considering that storytelling is acting

Full textThe researches deal with: - autobiographical narration of an oral text: the specificities of oral traditions and oral texts, - the role of orality in the development of a community: the professional speaker; the part of youth literature in Africa; morals and organization of Africa societies, problems of cultures interrelation in the memoirs. It is worth dealing with the questions evolved in the memoirs. These questions are: - Can a culture grow without contacts with other cultures? - Does interculturality mean a new social environment to be assimilated in terms of identity? - What are the roles of the colonial school, Muslim school, and the school of the tradition? - What could be the part of cultural contacts in the development of a community? Culture consists of ways of thinking, feeling, and behaviour of the different communities of which it is made of; it is the result of contacts and interrelationship between different groups of individuals. Therefore, any culture can be viewed as the mixture of different cultures. The exchanges that result give birth new ways of thinking, feeling, and behaviour. Lndeed, interculturality is the contacts of different cultures, and implies reciprocal respect of the cultures involved. It raises the question of how to live together with people from different cultures

Full textThe study proposes to analyze the writings of Hampâté Bâ by locating them within the framework of scientific and literary discourses in which they are rooted; to understand them through the multiple filiations that structure his perceptions of knowledge on Africa. To this purpose, we will attempt to interrogate his works through their conditions of possibility and determine their formulation by questioning the discursive paradigm that inform Africanist perceptions in Europe and Africa. Basing our analysis on the concept of field of knowledge, we have tried to understand the writers works through the various discourses and counter-discourses that mark Africanism since its inception with the French conquest of Africa western research, both colonial and anthropological, (Delafosse and Griaule) as well as Africa research as reflected in the writings of African writers and thinkers (1st congress of African writers and artists) are some of the modalities we have discussed in the first part of this study. However, as Hampâté Bâ works draw from Africanism, it is inevitable that he be confronted with the question of orality. The second part of our study proposes to address this concept both as a literary motive and as a social and textual practice and questions its implications. In the third part of our study, we move on to review Hampâté Bâ works to understand his perceptions on Africa and Africanist knowledge and determine current trends in Africanism where a major shift seems to have occurred : it is no longer merely a space within which writers and thinkers interrogate Africa, but a space which provides for the practice of literature and philosophy

Full textHow and why mass media can contribute to help and to question the orality that belongs to African societies? To answer this question, we are bound to carry out some sort of survey of speaking and language activities pertaining to modes of communication and information. The chosen field of investigation concerns the countries of Sahel, specifically the Bwa populations of Mali. It is in this geographical area that we try to check the hypothesis according to which the radio contributes to valorise and to save the oral, immaterial patrimony and constitutes one of the bridges of social, cultural, economic and political development of the African countries that receive it. The aim is to shed light on the ways in which mass media can invest societies characterised by oral tradition. Taking the example of tales which are told on the radio we can discover specific modes of appropriation. By interviewing storytellers, feeling of how media actors perform and questioning the way local radios work, by consulting reports from UNESCO and other associations, documents in information and communication sciences, but also anthropological and linguistic documents, it is at stake to understand that more media communication may lead to more common ground between human beings

Full textThe thesis including all our previous works of about 1710 pages is focused on african historical methodology, african antiquity, ancient egypt, central africa with specific items such as teke, vili, mbochi and kongo. Bantu area is also covered by studying languages, peoples and civilisations. A particular accent is made on the historical epistemology in the context of the actual african historiography. So, the global effort leads to a systematic conceptualisation of african cultral history which is not yet carried out in africa. Being just a part of mankind history, african history must indeed receive a scientific treatment, so that the oral aspect of african history becomes a subject of interest in the general framework of mankind history. The problem of the africanity of ancient egypt cannot be dodged, and the socalled "chamito semitic" or "afro-asiatic" family is a false one because without any concrete, scientific basis. The book africa in antiquity is still present when discussing the africanity of ancient egypt. We have attempt to make a new classification of ancient egyptian language which belongs as a matter of fact to negroafrican family. It is steadly question of history since comparative linguistic is always history

Full textTraditional palaver for the Punu people is a social phenomenon, a meeting, a gathering intended to settle down problems which may bring about disorder in society. It is based on an exchange of words. As a codified speech, palaver can only be apprehended within a particular environment. The manifestation of this phenomenon discloses some elements of drama such as dialog, gesture, silence and dancing. We have studied traditional palaver as a social drama basing our work on two transcribed and translated texts. In that framework, the palaver's analysis has led us to realize how speech changes into action and meaning thanks to its countless aspects. We have then come to the conclusion that oral tradition inspires francophone African drama a lot, notably Gabonese one. To that end, "La Mort de Guykafi", a play by Vincent de Paul Nyonda has helped us justify that assertion

Full textThe Horn of Africa has a traditional oral literature which is rich and varied as the rest of the continent, starting from pastoral mythology to poetry, legend and storytelling. But with the social upheaval which occurred with the arrival of European settlers and the introduction of writing, the chain of transmission of the oral tradition is threatened. Many Europeans have sought to describe the habits and customs of these people. Whereas on the other hand, the writers from the Horn of Africa are often inspired by giving it (orality) and a new way of doing it. The following research work strives to reflect traditional forms of orality and their impact on modern literature
Covarrubias, Acosta Sabina. "Pour une écriture multimédia dans la composition musicale." Thesis, Paris 8, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA080116/document.
Full textThe main goal of this work is to solve some of the difficulties that composers encounter when notating music. Firstly, we describe how the Western musical notation (WMN) is limited when attempting to write specific musical elements. Secondly, we show the possible advantages that multimedia writing (MW) could offer on the notation of such elements. To address these issues, we used MW in six “experiments/composition projects” that were conceived to answer specific notation questions. The results obtained thereof allowed us to demonstrate the efficacy of MW for overcoming current limitations in music notation. More specifically, MW constitutes a group of procedures that allows to simultaneously represent information in different ways. This information could be either text, sounds, still or moving images, among others. Such procedures can be used to note down a message to further save it and transfer it from the composer to the performer. In the context of our experimental paradigms, MW has proven to be efficient for: the notation of timber, the integration of musicians from oral tradition in mixed music works, the incorporation of instrumental techniques drawn from oral tradition music into written music, the integration of a tonal language in a music score, the notation of new instrumental and vocal techniques, the guidance at using new software, and the incorporation of expressiveness associated to music styles of oral tradition into written works. We consider that two types of notation that proved to be efficient in this research could be added to the body of already existing MW, namely auditive notation and the notation of a know-how by the means of video

Thesis, Paris Est, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PEST0072.
Full textThis thesis tries to demonstrate how the work of Ahmadou Kourouma crosses both oral and traditional speech. A cultural vernacular substratum structures the work and moulds it, culminating in a poetical hybrid; a synthesis of two literary traditions (oral and written) and of two symbolic universes (the Malinké legacy and the western colonial influence). The question of identity forms the crux of our examination of Kourouma. This analysis highlights the importance given to the Malinké origins and contributes to the emergence of a “interiority”. writing style. This research concentrates on three main themes which reveal the density of cultural references in the novels of this author and the roles which they play in anchoring a strong cultural identity and a rich aesthetical style

Full textThis thesis had to answer a question: can the negro-african mythology, whose accounts are essentially from oral tradition, be used as support and/or substance for dramaturgic writing? To answer this, we tried - starting from two examples, namely the Peul’s myth of Kaydara and an extract of the Fang’s epopee of the mvet of Zwè Nguéma Ŕ to offer perspectives for a possible work of theatrical setting through the articulations of the intrigue of each account. We extracted from them visual virtual settings, sound and body likely to be staged and transformed in staging language. We, with this intention, emphasized their dramatic specificity and intensity. Through the setting-up of the dramaturgic structure, we try to work out a speech that fits the requirements of theatrical communication

Full textOur research is an analysis that crosses the semiotics of the sensible and the african french-speaking literature. The study by, in fact, epic oral sources to achieve the analysis of the tensive subject by the flow of value.This means that our analysis shows how the values associated with the practices and genres of oral interfere in the processes of communication and perception of values object and inflect their reception and their interpretation.Our thesis assumes that the forms of traditional communications fall within the sensitive. The study attempts to show the perception of the sensitive circulation of value that manifests the traditional orality, taking into account the semiotic - linguistic data, but in a way encompassing and articulated some elements of phenomenology, contributing to the construction of the meaning. The study from an aesthetic renewal that characterizes the African writing as being related to the meaning given by the integration of orality. That is to say that in African fiction prose seizure sensitive proved possible with the literary innovation, indicative and bodily presence able to express the meaning, on three complementary views : i) apprehension of value, through the sensitive around the body, formed by notions of perception , emotion-passions and language understood as “thought process”, ii) on semiotic course the saying to describe states of mood , as if the analysis of the speech act of the subject - speaker raises the affect of the flesh.iii) these emotional states, such as process passionate provisions within the dynamism of a passionate deployment ( disposition modals and tensifs ), which highlights beings. Consequently, these phenomena have passion allowed to reach an argumentative strategy manifested as an integrated passion in african oral culture, as a form of life

Full textIn this study, we felt it necessary to go back to the oral, universal and linguistic origins of the french revolution; these origins are at level of speech both as an endogenus and exogenus sign. The tale is still at the origin of linguistic exchange between the generations both dead and alive; it denunciates social situations and regulates tensions. The tale also acts on reality always translating it according to the satisfaction of a need. The revolution is the best example of this process

Full textCe mémoire de maîtrise présente une analyse des quatre œuvres qu j’ai composées entre l’automne 2007 et l’automne 2008, au cours du programme d’études : Deux tempêtes et une langueur (violoncelle et piano), Sept gestes ludiques (violon, cor et piano), Azabache (musique pour danse contemporaine, six musiciens) et Landocinógena (orchestre). Il s’agit de quatre projets aux concepts compositionnels différents ayant en commun, la plupart d’entre eux, une ligne directrice se traduisant par un lien avec des sources musicales de tradition orale. Ce volet m’a amené à développer un projet de maîtrise reposant sur une codirection entre composition et ethnomusicologie. Ces analyses seront précédées d’une introduction contextuelle. La dernière partie présentera des conclusions à caractère réflexif.
This Memory of Master Degree presents the analyses of the four works composed during the program (from Autumn 2007 to Autumn 2008): Two Storms and a Languor (cello and piano), Seven Playful Gestures (violin, horn and piano), Azabache (music for contemporary dance, six musicians) and Landocinógena (orchestra). Those projects have different compositional concepts. Nevertheless, the sources of oral musical traditions are the common link between the most of them. This view has conducted my interest to develop a co-direction in the field of Compositions and Ethnomusicology. These analyses will be preceded by a contextual Introduction and will close with some reflexives conclusions.

Full textThis study examines how the mediatory action of the griot in West African oral traditions is at work in the films of Senegalese filmmaker Djibril Diop Mambety. This force of orality, of mise-en-présence, emerges in Mambety’s films from narrative disruptions and sound-image disjunctions. Instead of relying on narrative or speech as a discourse, this force of orality challenges the story’s consistency, inviting the viewer to frequently revise his or her interpretation of what is being seen and heard. The film itself becomes griot, a griot which links the world borne by the film and the spectator in a dynamic and ever-changing interplay. By fostering, through these disruptions, a critical stance toward the world on which depends the narrative, Mambety’s cinema makes room for marginality and exclusion, which inhabit all his films. Oral tradition and griot are first defined, followed by an analysis of how the films Parlons Grand-mère and Le franc are mediator films, functioning as griots. This opens the way for a broader reflection on the ethical significance of film-as-mediator, as well as the possible ties between mediation and narrative. Finally, an analysis of the film Hyènes, on account of its more linear narrative exposition, provides an opportunity to deepen our understanding of Mambety’s filmmaking, and to explore the greater implications of mediation in cinema.
