Full textPerformance - which has kept evolving since the 1960’s - is a medium that invites us to rethink the limits of the body. It is a symbol of taking control over oneself. It also implies a return to the physical, carnal world in our current society essentially ruled by technology. Performance is a medium of choice for women and their self-representation. It embodies their feminist commitment alongside the transgression of religious, moral and alienating values… it takes places somewhere between the show, staging or exile and shatters reality with its direct, « in your face » impact. Performance may not only emerge from disorientation, fantasy or artistic spirituality but also from some sort of radicalism and social politics often tinted with self-deprecating humour. « Performing wild woman » raises questions about the representation, the incarnation and the transgression of the female body and the « borderline » position between nature and culture, male and female, pornography and fairy tale, she-dog and she-wolf, fantasy and politics. Through the work of two very different writers sharing a common and impressive ability to address everyone, we shall study how it is possible for committed artists to open a breach to which everyone can identify. Finally, far from the « heterosexual normality » that confines women to specific roles, performance mostly symbolizes the right to reclaim enjoy one’s own body without guilt or restriction, inviting everyone to regard their flesh as the only proof of their existence. This research is the result of a particular journey made of internal development and experience

Full textSituated at the intersection between comparative literature and gender studies, this dissertation theorizes what I term the postnormâle novel. It deploys readings of four contemporary European novels along with a corpus of literary and feminist theory. The novels include Doris Lessing’s The Golden Notebook (1962), Märta Tikkanen’s Manrape (1975), Stieg Larsson’s Millenium trilogy or The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2005-2007) and Virginie Despentes’s Apocalypse baby (2010). My analysis of these texts examines the way in which the postnormâle novel reclaims social discourses of sexual difference for a mass audience while subtly displacing realist conventions in order to inscribe women’s—or lesbians’—experience of sexual conflict into the text. A four step process is used to study the work. First, I anchor the novels to a “realist real”, and study the function of detail within the postnormâle aesthetic. Then I chart the sociogram ’feminism’ in the novels and their reception. Thirdly, I read the narrative of what I call “counter-rape”, and lastly the inscription of woman-desire and the figuration—the constitution even—of entr’elles, a feminist space. The perspective of my study is postmodern, which implies a suspension—but not a disbelief—of the twofold question of literary status and literary evaluation, in order to focus on texts in their contexts. In this process, I aim to rethink the link between the notions of the feminine and the queer in light of contemporary feminist and lesbian perspectives

Full textIn our early 21th century, an increasingly number of writers gets a real enthusiasm for woman-related themes. More precisely, their purpose is to underline the identity quest of women in our society. This kind of literature uncovers a constant involvement of body and sexuality closely linked to society and to cultural schemes that society imposes - thus leading these authors to hold an innovative discourse about women. Our research aims to show how a literary discourse, drawing from actual sociocultural, feminist and psychoanalytic discourses, conceives the Woman issue and which representation of woman it can create. At the hands of this reflection about the Woman issue and her identity, the study focuses on three female authors’ novels, Virginie Despentes, a french writer, Lucia Extebarría, a spanish writer and Maïssa Bey, an algerian French-speaking writer. The woman being is portrayed in her relations with male violence but also with her own violence linked to her relation to body and sexuality, and through human struggles and a social and cultural alienation. The female character is lonely, confined to an identity in which she does not recognize herself anymore and that she rejects. The quest for self-knowledge and for self-recognition lets its longings emerge, in contradiction with their remit. In the end of each novel, woman’s individualization is imaged through a takeover of speech. Self-reconstruction can only be possible thanks to a control of speech about oneself and the individuation quest has to keep going

Full textFounded on the basis of "sociocritique", this thesis aims to study how neoliberalism is present in the Vernon Subutex trilogy written by Virginie Despentes. The analysis reveals on the one hand the standardization of the textual space, which is reduced to an opposition between cities and peripheries, and on the other hand the standardization of the textual time caused by the enforcement of the laws of the market, which causes the abolition of the distinction between working time - production - and leisure time - consumption. This deletion is more fully explored by studying the text's permanent insistence on the rooting and stabilization of attention economy. The thesis highlights the consequences of these transformations on the society of the novel: the disappearance of social safety nets, the atomization of a society abandoned to individuals' private interest, the normalization of systemic social and institutional violence, as well as the blurring of the border between the private and the public due to an instrumentalization of cognitive processes, intimacy, affects, and individual and collective identities. The analysis thus brings to the fore the teleological dimension of the current historical conjuncture. It also intends to demonstrate the liminality of Vernon Subutex, the eponymous character of the trilogy and the core of the textual genesis around which revolve a multitude of marginal characters. The "mise en texte" (Duchet) of the novels' characters is such that it captures a moment of the historical becoming of the social, the economical and the cultural, as well as it identifies the crucial role of the symbolic motif of the threshold in the poetics of the novel.

Full textSince the end of the 1990’s, a new generation of female writers started working on stories about the body and sexuality. Some of the narratives they develop drew attention because of the "shameless exhibitionism" they supposedly include, others because of their violence or what appears as a display of pornography. Those texts are evidence of deep changes occurring in our society, but moreover, they are interesting by their lack of respect for the literary conventions. This essay is about the way sex and body are depicted in À ciel ouvert by Nelly Arcan, Baise-moi by Virginie Despentes, La brèche by Marie-Sissi Labrèche, La vie sexuelle de Catherine M. by Catherine Millet and La nouvelle pornographie by Marie Nimier. The body is politics: it tells us that today, as much as in the 1970’s, sexual identities have to be dissolved and recreated. In addition, reading Arcan’s, Despentes’, Labrèche’s and Millet’s work while focalizing on what kind of subject is expressed via pleasure and desire shows that writing about sexuality can be a way of exploring human being when speech is useless. We will then see how the writers use pornography on a generic level and how they try and reconfigure our literary regime.

Full textThis thesis takes its roots in the question of the materiality and theatricality of the gendered body, as it can be understood by a cross-reading of a nineteenth century and a contemporary novel. L’Ève future, by Auguste de Villiers de l’Isle-Adam, and Les Chiennes savantes, by Virginie Despentes, are both putting an emphasis on the performance of the feminine gender. By staging characters of seductive women who combine their gendered performance with their work as actress and dancer, Les Chiennes savantes and L’Ève future are suggesting a link between the representation, the seductive power and the ‘reality’ of gender. If womanliness is a play, as Edison and Louise are alluding to in their respective stories; a masquerade according to Riviere; a political category as argued by Wittig; a performance for Butler; a technology for Preciado; does gender still exist that much? Can it be said that irony, which is found as a literary and philosophic device in both novels, by playing with the tension between the true and the fake in a discourse, is renewing the undecidability of the ‘reality’ of gender?
