Texte intégralPichot, de la Marandais Thibault. "Monsieur Ouine de Georges Bernanos : le roman d'une initiation, roman d'initiations." Bordeaux 3, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010BOR30044.
Texte intégralIs the eponymous character of Monsieur Ouine bound to be doomed to Gehenna ? Most critics think so. As far as we are concerned, we suggest another interpretation of this novel by Georges BERNANOS to show that the ouinian agony, in which the verbal exchanges between the old man and Steeny are of paramount importance, may very well be a kind of initiation rite. This rite gives the dying man the opportunity to change, to be born again by finding again the child he used to be and to eventually know the sweet Divine mercy just as he is passing away : « I have sorted myself out », he will say at the end of his earthly pilgrimage. As he is the seat of a testing fight between Good and Evil, this former language teacher represents an allegory of the man, and a sinful one as he is, for the redemption of whom Christ died and rose from the dead. Have faith beyond anything we hope for, this is the pervasive leitmotiv of the author’s works. As it finishes off his novels, Monsieur Ouine then appears to us like a bernanosian apocalypse

Texte intégralWhat is the mission of fiction in the Bernanosian project? Based on the tools of reconciled rhetoric of figures and argumentation, the aim of this work is to re-examine the Bernanosian triple paradox of "convincing of the obvious without using words those who share his beliefs" which generates the tension of his project of writing from the end; that is to say finding a language worthy of Christian truth, a language so "true" and so "transparent" that it could be capable of immediate conversion of souls. To fully understand the place of battle in Bernanosian writing, the notion of the end as a creative principle is examined through three main themes: the preludes to the end of time (eschatology), the final struggle for the end (agony) and the end results of writing (aim).
Writing from the end fundamentally implies a return to the origins. The focus of this study will be to demonstrate that the Bernanosian project, through a return to the source of spiritual authority and a re-examination of asceticism, is a central part of the vast enterprise of reappropriation of language defining French literature after the armistice. The search for this language capable not of convincing but of conquering is mainly studied through the voices the author gives his characters who are simple in heart and soul: to his heroes who are "strangers to a certain fencing with language," locked in a perpetual battle with words. The analysis of these heroes' discourse in this "slow tongue" attempts to determine the exact, though improbable, degree to which their babbling voices carry a weight of authority.

Texte intégralWhere does Evil come from? Where is the Truth? How does one discern the Truth and falsehood in the words of others? How can we trust the words of others? How can we remove ourselves from the evil that enfolds us in stressful situations? The semiotic analysis of the novel of Bernanos, Sous le soleil de Satan, a novel which gave rise to violent discussions from its publication in 1926 for the representations of the Evil described by the author, permits us to emphasize the importance of the encounter among personages and the importance of the word within an inter-subjective relationship that the encounter puts into words. During the encounter, if the subject wishes to reveal the profound desire which animates him, it is not the exact knowledge of the words that will conduct the interlocutor’s adhesion, but the trust and the faith that he will give him. Where does this device of the subject come from (to want adhere to the word of the other)? The semiotic analysis applied in the sequences of the encounter has shown how, in the dialogue, the ‘articulated strength’ of the word circulates between the actors; if the interlocutor adheres to the words he heard or if he opposes them, it is that he has been profoundly touched by the word that solicits him or recalls his own pressing desire. Thus reading Sous le soleil de Satan in semiotic invites us to look in a new way at the inter-subjectivity: How to believe the words of the other? How to trust the one who is speaking or how to fulfill the wish of the other expressed by his words, that would free the subject who speaks from a situation of suffering through a successful communication?

Texte intégralThe subject of this study consists to an analysis of the narration in the political writings and essay of Bernanos which have been classified as <>. The first idea of our study : to write pamphlets for Bernanos, it was telling events that answer to an historical time, influenced by the souvenir and the anticipation of the writer. The analysis is based on the major property which has the narration to make double the <> and the <>. The first part of the study is dedicated to the problematic of the destination in bernanos' political writing; the second part, particularly, to the analysis of the relation between the <> et the <>. The narration or the metaphore is used to ask the reality. The narration constitutes the detourning way, but to speak viver. It is also by this way th e narration permits to discover and discover again the reality in its metaphoric function. In bernanosian's narration, we distinguished a double narrative mouvement which underline the two different univers which put in a large part all bernanosian's tellings. In one part, an <> of carnival's world, configurate d by the <> and <>; the other part, a <> of epic world. Finally, the <> and the <> caracterize the narrative system of the telling bernanosian in general
Mérand, Benoit. "Georges Bernanos, imposture et sainteté." Thesis, Montpellier 3, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010MON30040.
Texte intégralThis study offers an analysis of the fraud figure and mechanism in Georges Bernanos’ fiction as it islinked in both contradictory and imitative way with sanctity figure and phenomenon. It is handled by threeaxes. The first axe tries to highlight the reason why, through his personal career, Bernanos decides to usethese two themes, both interdependent and opposed, as a recurring if not obsessive fiction subject. Thesecond axe stretches the biography by a comment on the genesis of his works, essentially linked to the twofigures, in other words, on the development of these two themes, as it appears in his first written worksand fictions. The third axe favours fraud reality and mechanism as Bernanos characters may reveal, mostdistinctively Mouchette, whose path in Sous le soleil de Satan is characteristically announcing the otherimpostors’ paths : in particular those of Abbé Cénabre, the fake priest of Mégère and M. Ouine. Then, thepath of the devil himself, liar and father of lies, following the Gospel verse, which the author is referringto, and whose representation in his first fiction, appears to be the only total supernatural imposture
Talan, Max. "Nomenclature et symbolique du Bestiaire dans les oeuvres de Georges Bernanos." Paris 10, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA100015.
Texte intégralThis thesis is a classification through alphabetical order of the animal found within the works of Georges Bernanos, specifically in his writings about romance and struggle. Images and symbols often serve as the bridge between the tangible world and its understanding. The thesis makes an attempt at a deeper interpretation of the animal symbolism used in the bernanosian world. The purpose of the study of the animal kingdom is to set forth a deeper, more precise insight into the literary works and their writer: the fictional and real-life characters that the creates and describes; the ideas that he developes; and most importantly, the diverse influences that he supports. The book is divided into two very distinct pats. The first, and most important part, extends from page 1 to 1063. It contains the official lay-out of the nomenclature of the animal kindgom. Each animal is accounted for, explained in its context, and then studied in order to outline its role and specific value. The second part, from page 1064 tyo 1139, gives in large part the general sense of the animals of the bernanosian world. It reveals, successively, the work's significance, its diverse origins which are essentially biblical, medieval and rustic, and also an outline of the book's psychological value and metaphysical dimension. It does through its satirical aspects principally in the writing about stuggle. Essentially, it demonstrates why the animal kingdom is often a revelation of bernanosian fears

Texte intégralSandler, Julie. "Bernanos et Cohen : deux écritures du commencement." Tours, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007TOUR2052.
Texte intégralThe origin of the research is to be found in the intuition of te relevance of an imaginary entcounter between Georges bernanos and Albert Cohen concerning th implementation in writing of the fervour that the idea of beginning generates in the characters they create. The confrontation of the two writers is organized around the confrontation of their novelistic writings. A first part enhances the relations that both authors have concerning the notion of beginnings and shows, through the study of the beginnings of the story (threshold, incipit, time-slicing, characters entrance, facts of temporality) then through the study of the topic of the beginnings, that both writers meet in the writing of a real inchoating effusion. In a second part, the beginning is apprehended as an object of writing fully-fledged. The third part, proceding from a series of reviews that lead us fromthe inchoating to the teological facts, tries to confirm the assumption according which the novelistic writings of Cohen and bernanos world be informed by a quest of the beginning and questions the meanings of the pardoxical quest

Texte intégralLefouin, Claire. "L'ontologie de la joie dans les romans de Bernanos." Nancy 2, 1990. http://www.theses.fr/1990NAN21007.
Texte intégralAfter an analysis of the relationship between joy and being and of the different modes of expression suited to mean a quality of soul more than an emotion or a sentiment, the thesis proposes to make a study of the mysteries of joy which enveils three most interesting characters on that account. The first three chapters are devoted to the trials endured by the parish priest of Ambricourt, the abbey Donissan, and Chantal de Clergerie. Those trials are the condition on which may be obtained the union of the soul with the royal betrothed. They are necessary for the birth of joy, sign of victory over the negative powers. The second part looks into the radical evil which is the utter denial of infinite good; no longer may subordinate to the secret of the being, Mr Ouine only know the delusion of joy. In Mr Ouine, a crime, a bad dream which brings the experience of emptiness and vice, dereliction becomes the usual condition of the characters who no longer recognize themselves again as participating in the being, cause and origin of joy. We have to meet Chantal -the third part is wholly devoted to her-who chose the way of spiritual child horde to understand that it is only in self-immolation and in the triumph of martyrdom that the fullness of being may flower-heavenly joy opposed to hellish joy and complementary to healing joy. Joy is sign of love, grace of purification
Gil, Marie. "Les deux écritures : étude de l'intertexte néo-testamentaire dans l'oeuvre de Georges Bernanos et mise en perspective (Charles Péguy)." Paris 4, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005PA040066.
Texte intégralThe problem of neo-testamentary re-writing exacerbates the problem of writing. The question 'what to write, when everything is written?' becomes 'what to write that is not the Bible?' An actualization as a paraphrase rather than as a quotation loses the essential point – the letter, which contains the Logos. Literary work thus strives for a complete quotation, the ideal of the exhaustive inscription of the Scripture onto the written page. This study is concerned with penetrating the strata of Bernanos' text in three phases, from the surface of the discourse to the latent text, and, for each stage, in light of Péguy's writing. Christian writing assigns literary inspiration the task of being the mediating voice of the divine word, secretly hidden in the primary object of the discourse—the denatured world. By becoming the mediator of a revelation, the work falls within the ancient apocalyptic genre: the speaker-narrator steps aside, making itself the mouthpiece of the revealed Word. In studying the discourse, two a priori opposing writings – quotation and commentary – confront each other. The paradox that gradually emerges is that of a biblical intertext at once containing gaps, a flash of lightning within the profane text, and as an encompassing matrix, so that every text is either only an explanation or an enlargement of it. Exegetical commentary and paraphrases form an expansive discourse that laments the impossibility of its eradication. The connection between the symbolism of the work's "book of the creatures" and the book of Scripture at the same time reveals that, with regard to novelistic representation, the book of Scripture functions like a dictionary, which forms a superimposition of the two books that imitates an original book, now lost. However, it is in the 'palimpsest', the latent text, and these biblical 'words' situated under the words of the literary page, that the complete superimposition of the books is achieved. This superimposition is subject to a twofold approach reviving the theory of reading, as well as intertextual studies: a hermeneutic reading, also called an 'intentional reading', and an 'involuntary reading' that views the palimpsest as a 'phenomenal object'
Inoguchi, Yoshihiko. "Le mythe de la famille dans l'oeuvre de Georges Bernanos : autour de la paternité." Nancy 2, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1995NAN21013.
Texte intégralThe aim of this thesis is to pinpoint the complex ideas related to the family throughout Bernanos’ works and from such analysis to deduce the existence of a certain number of archetypes which structure and organize this mixture of the imaginary. In particular, the accent has been placed upon notions of paternity in comparison with correlative notions such as maternity and fraternity. The method of analysis is based on two concepts: "le mythe personnel" (personal myth) elaborated by Charles Mauron and "le roman familial" (the family novel), theory invented by Sigmund Freud. Based on these two concepts, we have examined the evolution of paternal figures from one story to another
Richard, Philippe. "L’écriture de l’abandon : esthétique carmélitaine de l’œuvre romanesque de Georges Bernanos." Thesis, Paris 4, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA040116.
Texte intégralIntrinsically polyphonic, Bernanos’ novels seem to be established in a Carmelite world and develop a mystic intuition, from the experience to the creation of a writing of the abandonment. The novelist wishes to understand and calm the metaphysical questions of his century. The purpose is to create an embodied rhetoric and its relationship to the world. A theological aesthetics is also established on an ethics of the sweetness. To rewrite the dark night or to represent the spiritual rise : it is a question of creating a singular, humble and sublime language who represents the idea of abandonment of God and abandonment to God

Texte intégralGentil, Jean-François. "La forme policière dans la création romanesque de Bernanos." Paris 4, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2006PA040100.
Texte intégralThe first part proposes the study of connections between the novelistic work of Bernanos and the style of the detective novel. This style is codified and it appears that Bernanos manipulates the codes in his proper way. There is an interest for Simenon but it is Simenon who took Bernanos as a starting point; the position of Bernanos is the recognition for a brilliant pupil. If Bernanos did not write detective novels, on the other hand, he has relations with the crime novel which is a category from the comparative literature. A second part shows us the undeniable print of the hard-boiled novel, independent style, on Bernanos and some rewriting of the traditional ones. At last, the links between hard-boiled movies and the cinema are studied without theorization

Texte intégralThe interwar’s literature is known as a frantic and creative period concerning literary forms, and the demoniac’s figure arises from this effervesence. Suffering from a new « sickness of the century », many writers – most of them as catholics – raise the idea of evil under the guise of demoniac. We chose to turn towards François Mauriac, Georges Bernanos and Julian Green and emphasize some of their works in particular, because they embody this sphere of influence. We wondered about the demonic nature and about the way it was part of the novels they wrote in those days and how it could develop in these novels. Bernanos, Mauriac and Green were influenced by religion as well as by some authors and this gave a new dimension – a particularly tragic one – to the pattern of demonic. We tried to define the complex links between tragic and demonic in order to show how Mauriac, Bernanos and Green’s works are part of what Jean-Marie Domenach calls “the return of the tragic”. By setting these novels in the wake of tragic, we are given the opportunity to swing between excess and non-fulfilment, deconstruction and unity, crisis and balance. Therefore does this pattern of ambiguity – both affecting the narrative and thematic dimension of the novel – appear as one of Ariadne's threads, connecting Bernanos, Mauriac and Green's novels. Demonic thus became the root of a full esthetics : from this tension between questioning and understanding, arose the supernatural and the unspeakable, the only ways to lead us to demoniac
Serveau, Karine. "Les métamorphoses de l’écriture de la transcendance dans l’œuvre romanesque de Georges Bernanos." Thesis, Paris 4, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA040082.
Texte intégralConfronting fictional narrative writing and transcendence thanks to the metamorphosis that the novelist Georges Bernanos had been subjecting his work to for its twenty years’ development requires a threefold critical approach: generic, genetic, hermeneutic. The generic study makes it clear how the eight narrations are challenged to integrate a theological, metaphysical and mystical concept in a fictional setting with a non-reductive novel. Genetic analysis is pointing out a metamorphosis’s topography and timeline of the writing in the corrected crossed-out hand-written page, and in the completed fiction work, not to mention the homogeneous self-block consisting in the scriptural and structural unit of a novel. The hermeneutic investigation reveals the two preferred deployment means of this writing: the Bible as textual transcendence and the Christian mystical adventure as incarnate transcendence
Lacoste, Sarah. "Lire le mal. Valeurs d’usage de la mystique pour le repérage d’une langue du mal chez Bataille et Bernanos." Thesis, Paris 4, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA040219.
Texte intégralThe works of Bataille and Bernanos are pregnant with a language of evil, which has a system of its own and coexists (yet does not compete) with the literal meaning of the texts. It takes its meaning from the act of reading: the texts contain the possibility of evil, which is actualised only by the reader. However, this hermeneutic reading is, in itself, the product of the works: to some extent, the text itself teaches the reader to decipher the meaning. In order to grasp the specificity of this “foreign language”, a form of mediation is necessary. Mysticism acts as a bridge between Bataille and Bernanos, and as a hermeneutic tool to read this language of evil. This identification takes the form of a mystical journey in several steps: compassion (the internalisation of evil), the dark night (from the indecipherable to reversibility), imitation (which is tantamount to a re composition), and ecstasy (the lights of evil). After the identification of some representations of evil associated with recurring stylistic devices, the dark night appears to be a necessary time of indeterminacy, which leads to a form of creative negativity: those first two steps contribute to the identification of evil as a linguistic object, that the reader can get hold of. This language pertains to a number of idiosyncratic devices gathered around the notion of “rebroussement”: the alliance of opposites, lever words, body words. Ultimately, this thesis advocates the elaboration of an imaginary work, through dialogues between Bataille’s and Bernanos’s characters

Texte intégralThis ph. D. Research deals with the question, mainly in a literary perspective, of the form(s) given to an inherited figure, the devil of christianity and western culture, at a certain moment of time (after the first world war), in literary works of a determined genre (novels) and written by three major and contemporary writers of the modern european world (thomas mann, georges bernanos and c. S. Lewis). Firstly, the research shows the existence of strong links between the writing of the novels, the re-appearance of the character of the devil in these literary worlds and the historical context (two world wars, totalitarianism, secularization). Secondly, it analysizes the substantial modifications in the character's representation, which i call the principle of re-coding (recodage) of inherited traditions. Finally it answers the question of how the writer managed to make the appareance of this obsolete character plausible in the context of the contemporary world as shown in the novels - this leads to detailed and comparative studies of the aesthetics of the "fantastique", science-fiction and fantasy. The conclusion of this ph. D. Is that the character of the devil appears irreplaceable to western thought: no other symbol is as rich and meaningful, as expressive and at the same time open to all kinds of interpretations. It seems that the european literature and culture will not manage to get easily rid of this definitely central character
Schmitt, Maud. "Le récit apologétique laïc : Barbey d’Aurevilly, Bloy, Bernanos." Thesis, Paris 4, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA040149.
Texte intégralThis thesis aims to study how, in a post-revolutionary context of dechristianization, some Catholic writers set free from the Church authority and enable literature itself (as a work of fiction and imagination) to renew the apologetic discourse. Barbey d’Aurevilly, Bloy and Bernanos continue the founding shift in perspective that Chateaubriand started with the Génie du christianisme. These three writers use an ancient rhetoric narrative form called the exemplum. The first part of this work focuses on the evolutions of this form, and more specifically on the metamorphosis caused by its Christianization; but it also highlights its constant structure, from its theorization by Aristotle, until its latest use by the authors of “histoires tragiques”. The next three parts of the thesis deal with the way Barbey, Bloy and Bernanos conceive their narrative in order to obtain the religious conversion of their reader. The second part shows how the writers authenticate fiction; the third part focuses on the way they react to the difficulty of naming the divine: the authors resort to the figuration of this inexpressible object. Finally, the fourth part studies the means these narratives use to produce an effect on their readers, and make them actually change their moral behavior
Pinot, Anne. "Expérience et sens du déracinement dans l’œuvre romanesque de Dostoïevski et de Bernanos." Thesis, Paris 4, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PA040045.
Texte intégralDostoyevsky's and Bernanos's novels meet up on the frail boundary between literature and metaphysics; the incarnation of characters in spaces and places tainted by their troubled hearts gives the text its essential symbolism, which is neither the romantic "chosen landscape" nor the realists' overdetermined space. Incarnation does not contradict the rules of fictional creation —powerfully remodeled by the two authors— but recasts them in archetypal family stories where the father's home can be the locus of an initial moral murder. Behind the words of garrulous characters, who are eager for philosophy and psychology (which long caught the critics' attention), there lies the question of language and aestheticism confronted with truth. Many of them are liars who have forgotten the meaning of the entrenched language which Bernanos cherished, and Dostoyevsky's soliloquists get lost in the rambling development of their convoluted wording. The question of aestheticism depends on the vicissitudes of a period (1880-1930) which was marked by the uprooting of intellectuals: what is this beauty which will "save the world", a world which is no longer theo-centred, and how legitimate is a novelist who proposes its quest, especially if it is a spiritual one? Despite the existence of salvation figures who, through the suffering caused by violent confrontation, propose the acceptance of otherness, the uprooted characters often choose to lie persistently and prefer the demonic mask of duality or the nothingness of the "a quoi bon", an expression of absolute indifference and disillusionment
Diop, Cheikh. "L'inscription de la religion dans "La Symphonie pastorale" (Gide), "Journal d'un curé de campagne" (Bernanos), "L'Aventure ambigue" (Kane) et "La Flèche de Dieu" (Achebe)." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015BOR30025/document.
Texte intégralIn reading the stories of Bernanos, Gide, Achebe incorporated in our corpus, it emerges that religious imagery offers a composite picture. Based upon a set of representations, religion indeed varies according to the times and society. Though viewing the divine as an influential entity, religion implies beliefs and local theogonies. In fact, divinity doesn’t influence religious belonging for no much more than there is not religion without society, there isn’t society without religion: an atheist society undoubtedly would be a godless society but it wouldn’t mean a society devoid of religion or belief. It is worth noting that in these texts the mere mention of religion poses an existential problem beyond any fervor it is likely to stand for. More than a relationship between the divine and the human, it’s about the advent of man’s evolving conscience in a universe where bonds which have always created the collective unity tend to untie. In other words, religion is meant to be a set of values by which human behaviors are inspired. It is in fighting against such a prescription that some discomfort came to be among most characters in some novels. As a result, the observation both stunning and unsatisfactory provided by the image of a universe caught up in the turmoil of societal demands stems from the approach of religion. In view of fictions, it turns out that the nature of the sacred stirs and moves throughout all peoples but also fades away more than it shows off, leads astray more than it takes root. Though leaned to the landmark of faith, the human being is more and more subjugated by vertigo. This uneasiness becomes universal because religion is a collectively-lived phenomenon. In other words, the texts unveil human being’s drift in his struggling against evil. But more than a fight against the others, it’s rather a bitter struggle against oneself in order to be reborn to the first splendor. It is obvious that the universe of stories is peopled by individuals whose voices bear the echo of the divine. A perpetual cohabitation between good and evil, this is how the human condition is established and so depicted in the novels. For what may reveal the diary of a priest bearing the arrow of god and striving against demons except that it is the symphony of an ambiguous adventure, if not a perilous one
