Abstract:
This paper undertakes an analysis of Breytenbach’s prison book in terms of the autobiographer's psychological response to his experience of incarceration. Breytenbach’s ‘gallows humour' is shown to parallel the Bakhtinian ‘carnivalesque' with its symbolic destruction of official authority on the one hand, and the assertion of spiritual renewal on the other While looking into the carnivalesque dimension of gallows humour as mediated through the literary device of the trickster figure, I shall show that ‘the laughter of irreverence' goes beyond mere verbal playfulness in that it is part of a spiritually-based programme of opposition.

Abstract:
AbstractIndigenous artists are introducing traditional knowledge practices to the contemporary art world. This article discusses the work of selected Indigenous artists and relays their contribution towards changing art discourses and understandings of Indigenous knowledge. Anishinaabe artist Norval Morrisseau led the way by introducing ancient mythos; the gifted Carl Beam enlarged his oeuvre with ancient building practices; Peter Clair connected traditional Mi'kmaq craft and colonial influence in contemporary basketry; and Edward Poitras brought to life the cultural hero Coyote. More recently, Beau Dick has surprised international art audiences with his masks; Christi Belcourt’s studies of medicinal plants take on new meaning in paintings; Bonnie Devine creates stories around canoes and baskets; Adrian Stimson performs the trickster/ruse myth in the guise of a two-spirited character; and Lisa Myers’s work with the communal sharing of food typifies a younger generation of artists re-engaging with traditional knowledge.

Full text
Abstract:
The article discusses Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony with a focus on textual manifestations of the figure of the trickster. The theme of shape-shifting and transformation that one usually associates with tricksters is linked here with the theme of (non)dualist timespace, the notion of interbeing, which in turn introduces the theme of trauma healing. The author combines two perspectives—Paula Gunn Allen’s view on timespace in her The Sacred Hoop, and Gerald Vizenor’s writings concerning trickster aesthetics—in order to show that the narrative structure of the novel can also be seen as an embodiment of the trickster: trickster-timespace, trickster-relation, and trickster-processuality; these three manifestations of the trickster are analyzed from the perspective of one more actualization of the trickster, that of a psychopomp, the “Guide of Souls” (which is manifested both at the level of plot and narration).

This essay uses the rubric of “trickster” to explore the narrative character of Solomon as presented in Kings. Using both the broader literary category and the specific comparand of the Lenape (Delaware) trickster, Wehixamukes, nuances of the biblical presentation are highlighted and seemingly disparate elements of the biblical Solomon character are seen as parts of a coherent whole.

Full text
Abstract:
This project examines facets of racial identity as they emerge in a contemporary South African context, and considers how instances of local satire both subtly resist and support white normativity. It consists of two separate sections: firstly, a self-reflective essay that, employing current theories from the academic field of whiteness studies, assesses South African satire’s relation to and negotiation of race and identity politics; and secondly, The Weekly Crab, my own creative response to the genre of satire. Using contemporary theories of racial construction, the first section will delineate whiteness as a dominant but invisible identification, and as a social construction underpinned by an inherited and continually reproduced privilege. Satire, in turn, will be described as a mode of rhetorical and conceptual attack that is capable of cultivating an understanding of how whiteness functions as a cultural construct, as well as foster a sensitivity to how its cultural dynamics shape and inform racial politics in the South African context. The first section will identify the website Hayibo.com as a source of local satire whose satirising of current events is often complicit in the perpetuation of white normativity. I will point to moments in its work where white expectations, fears and social mores are left unexamined, and, indeed, become an unspoken part of their critiquing lens rather than the focus of it. An accompanying critical breakdown of my own satire in The Weekly Crab will show my work to be a countertext to Hayibo. As I will make clear, I am not saying that I successfully fill a gap in the landscape of South African satire. Instead, in comparing my work to the satire that Hayibo produces, and by providing, in the second section, a creative response to that particular approach to satire, I am trying to circumscribe a blind spot in South African literary journalism : that is, the paucity of satire that aggressively subverts the normativity of whiteness.

Fenlon, Carol. "Addressing the unspeakable : the feral child as literary device." Thesis, Edge Hill University, 2009. http://repository.edgehill.ac.uk/6202/.

Full text
Abstract:
This project aims to explore the fictional image of the feral child through practice-based and critical research. The novel Consider The Lilies, comprising the main body of the thesis, explores the relationship between Vicky, a woman who suffered isolated confinement as a child, and Jack, the main narrator, as he searches for his lost identity. In the critical component, analysis of the image using historical perspectives locates its function within the text as one of radical critique, reviewing existing social practices from a defamiliansed perspective. Exploration of contemporary texts focuses this critique on the role of language in the formation of the individual consciousness. The application of psychoanalytic theories, in particular the work of Julia Kristeva on the semiotic chora, identifies the function of the fictional image of the feral child as a catalyst permitting the expression of the semiotic in the text. An examination of a specific text, Jill Dawson's Wild Boy (2003) tests this proposition and evaluates the poetics involved in the composition. The simultaneous development of practice-based and critical research is discussed in the chapter on the poetics of wildness which traces the writing process and its motivation. The concluding arguments consolidate the position that the fictional image of the feral child acts as a catalyst permitting an address to the unspeakable and the expression of the semiotic in the text which carries a revolutionary potential but recognise that this image is only one means of making such address, situating this research as part of an ongoing poetics which will continue to influence future writing.

Gee, E. R. G. "Astronomy as a literary device in the Fasti of Ovid." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 1997. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.599344.

Full text
Abstract:
The astronomical material in Ovid's Roman calendar, the <I>Fasti</I> has been inadequately treated in past scholarship, and is neglected by contemporary scholars. In my dissertation I deal comprehensively with this material, which forms between one quarter and one third of the total volume of the poem. My approach to the <I>Fasti</I> through its stars aims to combine recent genre-based or "programmatic" reading with a broad culture-historical perspective. I do not study Ovid's stars using the technical methods of mathematical astronomy. The importance of astronomy to the <I>Fasti</I> is not so much scientific as generic. The stars serve to tie the <I>Fasti</I> with hexameter didactic poetry as much as with elegiac models. A primary didactic ancestor is the <I>Phaenomena</I> of Aratus, an astronomical poem written in the C 3<SUP>rd</SUP> BC. The main task of my thesis is to test the scholarly assumption, never fully explored, that the astronomy in the <I>Fasti</I> is influenced by Aratus' <I>Phaenomena</I>. The first four chapters take up this task. My findings, gained through a comprehensive comparison of the astronomical material in the <I>Fasti</I> with corresponding material from the <I>Phaenomena</I>, indicate that the connection between the two poets is not readily quantifiable in terms of direct echo, but inheres in a broader symbolic relationship. Aratus is a poet of Stoicism and of order, Ovid of mythology and shifting political ground. Comparison of these two different entities produces meaning by both their similarity to and divergence from one another. In the final two chapters of my thesis I take the <I>Fasti</I> and its Aratean model out of the purely literary frame and into contemporary politics. The astronomy in the <I>Fasti</I> can be seen to be in keeping with ideas of cosmic empire, in which Greek learning was appropriated to express Roman political domination. At the same time, the stars bring the <I>Fasti</I> into line with the universe of the <I>Metamorphoses</I>, in which catasterism (translation to the stars) is amoral and part of a fluid world-view which is not consonant with political determinism. Through its astronomy, the <I>Fasti</I> both takes on and resists the impulse towards Augustan universalist panegyric.

Abstract:
Este trabalho se propôs a analisar O Diabo Mesquinho (1892-1902), romance-chave de Fiódor Sologub (1863-1927), um dos expoentes do simbolismo russo. Além da importância incontestável da obra para a literatura russa e mundial, foi estímulo para a pesquisa a possibilidade de delinear o primeiro estudo acadêmico sobre o autor no Brasil. A análise seguiu duas direções, que continuamente se encontraram: a evidente tessitura paródica, e a presença de arquétipos míticos universais perpassados por elementos do folclore russo. Quanto ao uso da paródia, tendo como base teórica autores como Iuri Tyniánov e Mikhail Bakhtin, foram feitas aproximações de O Diabo Mesquinho com textos de Aleksándr Púchkin, Nikolai Gógol e Fiódor Dostoiévski, cujas marcas deflagradas são essenciais para o entendimento da estrutura da obra, assim como o narrador que, subvertendo a estética realista, organiza esses discursos. Com relação à incorporação de arquétipos literários, a qual ressalta a dimensão paródica e a contextura neomitológica, tal como conceituada por Zara Mints, foi desenvolvida uma análise do desdobramento do anti-herói Ardalión Peredonov, um trickster diabólico, no herói cultural mítico. Esse aprofundamento, embasado sobretudo em Eliazar Meletínski, desvelou a articulação que a narrativa faz entre as dualidades míticas mais estáveis (caos versus cosmos, próprio versus alheio), as construções de herói e de anti-herói, e os traços folclóricos e do demonismo popular. A convivência desses componentes conduz o enredo ao caos mítico junto da loucura progressiva de Peredonov. A breve contextualização do simbolismo russo, movimento que, apoiado na própria cultura e história, inaugurou novos rumos na arte e na filosofia russas, foi também fundamental para trabalhar com O Diabo Mesquinho, pois o romance consagra seus grandes mestres, sublinha seu contexto gerador e rompe paradigmas.<br>The research aims at analysing The Petty Demon (1892-1902), a key novel by Fiódor Sologub (1863-1927) who is one of the best known writers of the Russian symbolism. The importance of this novel is well established for Russian and world literature, and this research thesis was the first academic study on the author in Brazil. The analysis followed two main directions, which appear in intersection: first, the evident parodist structure of the text and second, the presence of universal mythic archetypes juxtaposed by elements of the Russian folklore, which inhabit the narration. Regarding the use of parody, drawing on Iuri Tyniánov and Mikhail Bakhtin, the analysis establish dialogues between The Petty Demon and texts by Aleksándr Púchkin, Nikolai Gógol and Fiódor Dostoiévski. These parodist dialogues are seen here as essential for the understanding of the structure of the text, as well as the narrator who organises these discourses subverting the realistic aesthetics. In relation to the incorporation of literary archetypes in the novel, highlighting the parodist dimension and the neomythologic structure, as conceptualised by Zara Mints, an analysis was developed on the history of the anti-hero Ardalión Peredonov, a diabolic trickster, as a cultural mythic hero. This in-depth analysis drawing on Eliazar Meletínski, unravelled the articulation between well established mythic dualities (chaos versus cosmos); the construction of the hero and anti-hero; and the folkloric characteristics and popular demonism. The relation between these components guides the story to the mythic chaos alongside the gradual madness of Peredonov. The brief contextualisation put forward in this research thesis of the Russian symbolism - a movement that based on its own culture and history launched new paths for Russian arts and philosophy - was fundamental to the analysis of The Petty Demon, as the novel established great masters in literature, highlighted its symbolist context and broke paradigms.

Wilkinson, Lorna Christine Rose. ""A blur of potentialities" : the figure of the trickster in the works of Elizabeth Bowen, Elizabeth Taylor, Iris Murdoch and Muriel Spark." Thesis, University of Exeter, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/10871/28760.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the figure of the trickster in the works of Elizabeth Bowen, Elizabeth Taylor, Iris Murdoch and Muriel Spark. By looking at these writers’ treatment of elusive, illusive and allusive characters, the thesis argues that they each incorporated what can be read as “trickster” figures in their fiction as a means of addressing anxieties about art, society and the self. The trickster is a character-type found in narratives from a multitude of cultures and eras, and is typically characterised by his subversive presence, his boundary-crossing and his role as a healer of predicament. While the trickster is often perceived as a universal phenomenon arising from a collective unconscious, this thesis instead focusses on writers’ intentional inclusion of trickster characters in literature as a way of thinking through specific problems. Bowen, it will be shown, interpolated tricksy characters drawn from myth and fairy-tale into her fiction in order to expose a perceived rift between art and academia; Taylor used the trickster to think about the construction of identity in post-war Britain; Murdoch took models from Shakespeare to create tricksters that helped her explore the ethics of writing fiction; and Spark’s tricksters allowed her to conceptualise truth and lies, and good and evil. Concentrating on four mid-century writers whose works have been seen to vary in genre and style, this thesis demonstrates that a trickster paradigm emerged in mid-twentieth-century British fiction – a period not previously associated with the trickster. Influenced by converging strands of trickery and allusion in art through the early decades of the twentieth century, notable mid-century British writers used outsider characters to probe social and artistic shifts in a landscape fractured by war and to reach for a sense of healing. By identifying such characters as trickster figures, this thesis sheds new light on patterns of subversion, healing and character in mid-century fiction. It explores the particular affinity the trickster had with women’s writing, and illustrates how the trickster was important to twentieth-century concerns surrounding metafiction and the role of the reader.

Doolan, J. C. "'Geys morg heiti hafi pér gefit honum' : the mutability of Óðinn as a literary device in Old Norse texts of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2011. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.598599.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation presents the thesis that the literary figure of Óðinn was an extremely useful artistic device for medieval Icelandic authors seeking to engage with their pagan heritage and to reconcile an interest in this cultural past with their own beliefs and experiences. An accurate definition of what constitutes the Odinic figure and its various uses is therefore highly valuable to a fuller understanding of the complex and dynamic relationship in Old Norse literature produced in the Christian present but reflecting on the pagan past. Part One examines source evidence for Óðinn, taking the numerous names for Óðinn as a method by which to categorise and understand him as a figure. These names are found overwhelmingly in Old Norse poetry and poetic treatises, providing information on the mythological attributes and guises of Óðinn. These sources (the poems of the <i>Poetic Edda, Snorra Edda</i>, including the additional <i>pulur</i> appended to <i>Skáldskaparmál</i>, and skaldic poems) comprise the most complete and earliest evidence of Old Norse mythology for modern scholars. Part One collates and analyses the names of Óðinn found in these sources to reach a definition of the ‘Odinic’ and its constituent parts which include: disguise; deception; moral and sexual ambiguity; and status as the father of gods and men, as patron of poetry and the giver of victory in battle. Part Two utilises the definitions as the basis of a comparative study into the manifestations of the Odinic figure found in Old Norse prose, in particular the narratives of <i>Heimskringla</i> and <i>Flateyjarbók</i> which each combine Old Norse myth, legend, and history in order to construct a chronological account of the Scandinavian peoples, encompassing and adapting the contradictory origin myths of the pagan and biblical traditions. Examination of the ways manuscript compilers use Óðinn for this purpose casts light on their world view and on Óðinn as means by which Icelandic Christian writers could explore and reconcile these seemingly disjunctive traditions in their literature.

L'essor du numérique et la multiplication des supports (smartphone, tablette tactile)ouvrent de nouvelles perspectives en matière d'écriture. Dans ce monde où textes, images et sons s'entrecroisent au fil des réseaux et au gré de l'interactivité, la fiction littéraire peut-elle trouver une voie qui lui permette de préserver sa richesse tout en bénéficiant des apports du numérique ? Comment l'auteur littéraire peut-il concevoir et agencer ses matériaux narratifs afin de toucher efficacement des lecteurs disposés à franchir le pas du numérique ? Quels sont les fondements d'une narration multimodale utilisant au mieux les potentiels du texte, de l'image et du son, dans toute leur complémentarité, pour servir une fiction littéraire destinée à un large public ? Ces questions sont abordées, tant du point de vue de l'auteur que de celui du lecteur, dans une approche transdisciplinaire à la fois théorique et expérimentale.

Full text
Abstract:
Tricksters are popular cultural and literary characters which appear across regions and genres in various forms. The characters Uncle Julius from The Conjure Woman collection of short stories by Charles W. Chesnutt, and the confidence man from Herman Melville's The Confidence-Man: His Masquerade are both tricksters who are based on strong cultural backgrounds: the African(- American) religious trickster, and real life con artist William Thompson, respectively. This thesis sets out to compare the tricksters in thematic and structural elements. The origins of the literary characters help shape the readers' expectations and perception of the tricksters. Melville and Chesnutt encourage the stereotypical reading of the characters while also including an alternative one in the text. The conflict of perceptions serves to introduce a number of social topics regarding slavery in The Conjure Woman and self-reliance in The Confidence-Man, both of which ultimately point to the problematic distribution of freedom in American society. The tricksters appear both as literary characters and literary devices, corresponding with the ambiguous nature of the trickster archetype.

This study deals with the ability of the three-dimensional module of the CATHARE2 code to simulate the thermalhydraulic behavior of a 900MWe Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) in Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) conditions. The CATHARE2 code is a “Best-Estimate” system code, developed by the CEA, in collaboration with EDF, AREVA NP and IRSN, used in France in the frame of realistic methodology to evaluate safety margins. Particularly, the realistic simulation of the so-called “chimney effect”, which occurs during the reflooding phase of a Large Break LOCA is of primary importance. Observed during experiments, this effect is indeed characteristic of the hydraulic behavior of a nuclear core presenting a non-uniform radial power profile. Several separate effect tests such as PERICLES 2D reflood and CCTF/SCTF experiments have demonstrated the existence of cross-flows between the hot assembly and the mean assemblies of the core during this reflooding phase. Liquid goes from the mean assemblies toward the hot one beneath the quench front leading to an increase in the heat transfer coefficient in the hot assembly compared to the one in the mean assemblies, and hence to a better cooling of the hot rod. After a literary survey on the “chimney effect”, quantitative information has been found in several publications concerning SCTF and CCTF tests. More precisely, a correlation has been established from the results of these tests providing the increase rate of the heat transfer coefficient in the hot assembly compared to the one in the mean assemblies depending on the power features of the core. The assumptions related to the establishment of this correlation are first validated in case of the PERICLES 2D Reflood test configuration. Then the simulation of the “chimney effect” by the three-dimensional module of the CATHARE2 code is analyzed by comparing simulation and experimental results in the PERICLES 2D Reflood test configuration. Finally, the same kind of study is performed with the simulation of a 900MWe PWR core in reflooding conditions typical of a Large Break LOCA transient. In both cases, the difference between the heat transfer coefficients of the hot assembly and the mean ones obtained during the CATHARE2 simulations is compared to the correlation derived from the SCTF and CCTF experimental results. While the simulation of a Large Break LOCA in a 900MWe PWR has quite well reproduced SCTF/CCTF experimental evidences, the study performed with PERICLES configuration has not given such satisfying results, probably due to the lack of representativeness of the device (only three aligned assemblies).
