Nakamura, Midori. "Les "annonces" narratives dans les romans d'Emile Zola." Thesis, Paris 3, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA030076.
Full textHow does Émile Zola retain durably the reader’s interest? In this study, we identify one of the author’s frequent narrative techniques: the "announcement", which allows the reader to foresee the outcome, creating both the desire to see if the novel ends as one might have guessed, and the urge to find out how. An essential aspect of announcements in Les Rougon-Macquart is that they are voiced by characters either of secondary importance or belonging to society’s margins. Moreover, their sinister prophecies are often declared "unreasonable" and easily cast aside, in order to throttle the voicing of inopportune truths. Thus, the announcement in Zola’s fiction is not only a narrative issue; it also raises awareness on social hypocrisy. Studying Zola’s manuscripts offers a prime perspective on how the author integrated this process to his novels. His dossier préparatoire for L’Assommoir shows firsthand the programming of the announcement through a secondary character; that of Pot-Bouille shows the same procedure, for a socially marginal character. But in L’Argent, one finds a wavering of these archetypal announcing figures in la Méchain, while Sigismond appears as the sprout of an entirely new type of announcer, which will blossom in the last novelistic series. Indeed, after the transition of Les Trois Villes, the heroes of Les Quatre Évangiles become preachers announcing a better world, and confirming its fruition. The announcement then consists of putting forth an ideal. The system of foretelling therefore undergoes a transformation that parallels the author’s ideological evolution: from the denunciation of current issues to the annunciation of the coming utopia

Full textDue to Zola’s engagement in the Dreyfus Affair, his critical reception is problematic, for it comprises both literary and political fields. In addition, the socially critical content of his works has always encouraged politicized reactions. It is this phenomenon we shall be investigating in Germany whilst bearing in mind contemporary occurrences in France. In both countries the history of the reception of Naturalism’s leading figure is marked by various revisionary readings of his oeuvre and literary project. Rarely are these revisions motivated by purely literary concerns—they always come from the left wing. From the 1950s onwards the German Democratic Republic began to re-evaluate and rehabilitate the French author through the initiative of Victor Klemperer and later of Rita Schober, while the Federal Republic of Germany showed only limited interest in Zola until the 1970s, a phenomenon initiated by the re-politicization of academic criticism. This study allows us to distinguish the principle stages of Zola’s French and German reception based on the predominant understandings of the author and his work, and it enables us to compare the stages of his critical reception in order to highlight their structures and convergences, as well as to bring out their differences. As a result, it offers an original re-reading of Zola’s œuvre: by uncovering recurring points of resistance to Zola in critical approaches, this study retraces the most powerful aspects of the author’s mind and action
Lauraine, Françoise. "Le système des éléments dans l'oeuvre de Zola." Paris 3, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA030086.
Full textPrimary elements system in zola's works the object of this dissertation is to study the system of the four primary elements : water, air, earth and fire, specially used in zola's works and dating back to the first stoician philosophers of the antiquity. We have first examined the system genesis and its own structure, then the part it plays at every stage of the literary creation, from the fore-text to the final text, in all the parts of the fiction work ; for example the structural, dramatical, and referential function of the system. Moreover the system also generates its stylistics, the figurative use of the elements composing it, produces metonymies, metaphors and synestesises. Besides, global syntagms like "all", "it was. . All. . One", "it was. . All", are profuse and in company with the recurrent character of pan, a universal god. From this comes out the semiology of the system, in relation with bachelard's concept of imagination and matter, and still in relation with anthropology that links imagination archetypes to science. The stoician philosophy echoes, in the text, zola's pantheism and globalizing thought. The predominance of the "artist fire", a fire of purification and creation, death felt like a return "to the universal life", evil and pain dominated by the ideal of life in harmony with nature, and "the vital energy", give evidence of a wisdom based, on the idea of an "eternal return", on the greek and latin stoicians' "palingenesis", and also on love for life, a life that should be accomplished with dignity, for the good of people
Licari, Anthony. "Etude stylométrique de l'engagement psycho-social d'Emile Zola dans la série "Les Rougon-Macquart"." Tours, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004TOUR2020.
Full textThis thesis takes as a point of departure three expressions taken from a sentence by Claude in "l'Oeuvre" by Emile Zola : literature, science and democracy. Zola considers these elements as the base of prosperity in society. He admits that his work has no infallible system, however, nor efficient solutions to suggest. It is thus experimental and bases itself on the energy which is indispensible to commitment, this thesis which poses two hypotheses : the psychosocial commitment of Zola and the relation between the social worries of Zola and modern society. To this end, measurement methods inspired by human sciences are applied to the whole corpus of the "Rougon-macquart". The aim of this method of analysis of literature is to reduce the parameters of interpretation, espacially free and intuitive, and to create more discipline in literary analysis
Ngone, Dzene Delphine Dielle. "Les pastiches - Zola : poétique et critique." Thesis, Toulon, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018TOUL3003/document.
Full textZola-pastiches are a sign of reception of Zola’s literary works. More than a centuryafter his death, his style is still targeted by the authors of this type of rewriting. Our researchposes the problem of mimetic or differential appropriation of Zola-pastiches posterior to hisdeath. How the author of Les Rougon-Macquart is imitated in these pastiches is our mainresearch question. A pastiche is a writing that implies a textual repeat characterized by theexistence of two types of texts: the hypertext (derived text) and the hypotext (source text). Acomparative approach linked to the theories of intertextuality and hypertextuality has enabledus to discover that the imitators of Zola draw inspiration from his writings and also from thewritings of other authors. They thus produce pastiches with single, double or multiplehypotexts. The distinction between Zola-pastiches is also based on their internal (literary) orexternal (political, advertising) aim. The authors of pastiches with external aims documentthe social facts of their era just like Zola did in his novels. Some authors show a literaryengagement by attacking political leaders but indirectly. In addition to their aims, theirrepresentation of Zola’s style diversifies their writings. Each writer conforms to someimitation rules which are generally related to the principles of similarities and differences.Some pastiches are therefore move creative and/or more representative of Zola’s style thanothers. The study of the imitative ways of pastiches’ writers implies a reflection on theconcept of style whose definitions seem unclear. These writers no longer focus only onZola’s thematic which has been highly criticized during his life time and even after his death.They blend themes and stylistic devices, thus acknowledging the poetic quality of the literaryworks of the naturalism founder. The Zola-pastiches written during the 20th and at thebeginning of the 21st centuries therefore appear to be a critical analysis of these works as wellas the criticism of the partial or one-sided criticism that preceded the renewed interest in thereading of the author of Medan’s texts. The imbrication of stylistic devices and themesborrowed from Zola and adapted to new contexts shows that the literary style convokes theidiosyncratic and sociologic dimensions of an author’s specific way of writing, given that,style is not an abstract phenomenon but a series of formal and thematic choices which arehistorically located and whose imitation is highly determined by representations
Lemarié, Yannick. "Ventre et manducation dans l'œuvre de Zola." Angers, 1996. http://www.theses.fr/1996ANGE0023.
Full textStanding from the conceptions of plato and descartes that lay the fondations of the philosophy of the body in 19th century France, this thesis aims to point how Zola turns his back on these trends of thoughts in order to have a better understanding of bodoly reality and turn man into devouring being. The next point is to settle in what way the stomach and manducation constitute the basis of fiction creativeness : portraits, space, social structures are thus analysed on this basis. Lastly, the female character is replaced in this new context. Even, the woman is no longer reduced to her sex but she plays a prominent role again in the cycle eater-eaten
Anfray-Plantureux, Clelia. "La Bible de Zola : mythocritique des Rougon-Macquart." Paris 4, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA040243.
Full textIn the Rougon-Macquart, Zola suggests the rewriting of pagan or Christian, timeless myths. While the first half of the series is about stories inherited either from classical mythology or from the Genesis, the second half borrows essentially from the Ancient and the New Testament, Christian myths, hagiographic stories, or legends. The story of the Original Sin, which is stretched throughout the first three novels, is followed by ancient beliefs about pagan idols: Diana, Vulcan, Venus, etc. Sacred characters, saints, or prophets, like Jacob, Esther, St. Stephanus, or St Paul. Finally the cycle ends with the eschatological story of the Apocalypse. Thus, in order to explain the origins of the collapse of the Second Empire, the author builds a "modern Bible", and partly respects its chronology and unity. In this work, we adopt Pierre Brunel's method, "mythocritique". It rests on three principles: emergence, flexibility, and irradiation. Any interpretation necessarily rests on the emerging of some explicit, mythical occurrence: a single name, a single object or a single sentence can manifest by itself the mythical print. In addition, these mythical elements are not reproduced as such inside the work. They have to be modulated and adapted by the novelist; literary text inflects them. Our study aims at letting them irradiate
Ogino, Fumitaka. "Système, anti-système et clôture dans l'oeuvre d'Émile Zola." Paris 3, 1993. http://www.theses.fr/1993PA030123.
Full textThe changes in emile zola's understanding of creation can be described with the 2 schemes of situation in front of x (god, nature), and inrreducibility which enables creation to the creation. Being confronted with the so-called systematic philosophers proudhon and taine, zola considers nature as antisystematic in the processs of works creation. Zola will go further in asserting nature and life as irreducible not only to creation, but also to the history of a given society. The scheme of irreducibility is also at work in zola's involvement in the dreyfus case, case in which the closeness of a religion's history is put under question
Tremou, Catherine. "Le dialogue romanesque dans les Rougon-Macquart d'E. Zola." Paris 3, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA030122.
Full textThe fictif dialogue in "les rougon-macquart" il considered as an independant system with its. Own rules. In the novels we find different types of dialogue with their proper meaning. Such types are the informatif, the argumentatif, the debate and the conversation. The dialogue also belongs to the narrative system, and it is the domain for the expression of an ideology. It is therefore a semiotic system with its own significance in the novel

Full textFrom 1865 to 1872 , as a young, ambitious and outraged man who came to Paris from Aix, Emile Zola goes through the basics of journalism and prepares for war thanks to the contacts he established at the publishing house Hachette with writers, critics and journalists. He becomes a contributor to anti-establishment newspapers such as L'évènement illustré, but above all, La Tribune, Le Rappel, La Cloche. He adopts and echoes in his articles the opposition movement against the Second Empire which, with its liberalization in 1868, comes to its end. Similarly, with the advent of the Third Republic, he reflects, as a Parliament columnist in Bordeaux then in Versailles, the political practices and debates of this transition period during which democracy is hard to set up. His columns show a wide range of themes from political gossip to contemplative stroll. They especially display an extensive set of literary forms ( dialogues, speeches, letters ) and styles ( from pamphlet to satire ) we analyse in the main part of our study. The third part of the thesis tries to show through references to four novels: La Curée, Nana, La Conquête de Plassans, Son Excellence Eugène Rougon and some incursions in other works from the Rougon-Macquart saga, how the young journalist tested and worked patterns, situations and characters out, that will be more or less unconsciously reinvested develloped and adapted by Zola as a novelist. In short, the press will have been ( above all? ) a kind of processing room for Zola's major work too. It gave this major work its lively aspect
