    Dire le secret (2022)
    Presses Universitaires de Bordeaux
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: Le secret est le “personnage théorique” de ce volume collectif qui essaye de penser les figures particulières que la Modernité lui a inventées. Il ne s’agit donc pas de décrire des structures hors de toute histoire mais de chercher en quoi le secret est intimement lié à une économie nouvelle du langage, à des formes littéraires nouvelles. Car la Modernité a produit une exigence de tout dire qui change radicalement le partage entre dicible et indicible. Journal intime ou roman sont, notamment, deux matrices fécondes d’écriture du secret et leur floraison est, d’une certaine façon, l’histoire de la modernité. On déclinera donc quelques figures narratives du secret, en racontant le “roman du secret”. De Madame de Duras à Huysmans, Proust et Bernanos, de Blanchot à Quignard, ou chez Carrère et Both, le principe même du romanesque réside dans les modalités indéfinies de révélation du secret, ce secret qui se réserve, qui nous fait lire. Par contraste, la poésie choisit le versant du mystère. On en verra chez Maeterlinck, Artaud, Pessoa ou Michaux les modes de figuration, et ce qui fait du lyrisme une science de l’ineffable. Les figures du secret sont infinies, chatoyantes et séduisantes. Les énigmatiques jeunes filles de Balthus nous rappellent la place du visible et les réflexions de Wittgenstein ouvrent à une redéfinition de la subjectivité. Le secret échappe. Il relance heureusement notre désir de savoir, notre avidité de lire, notre besoin de lui donner un contenu. Il est ainsi l’un des noms, secrets et éclatants, de la littérature.

    Chapter 32 The Roots and Ramifications of Narrative in Modern Medicine (2021)
    Edinburgh University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-01
    Description: In this landmark Companion, expert contributors from around the world map out the field of the critical medical humanities. This is the first volume to introduce comprehensively the ways in which interdisciplinary thinking across the humanities and social sciences might contribute to, critique and develop medical understanding of the human individually and collectively. The thirty-six newly commissioned chapters range widely within and across disciplinary fields, always alert to the intersections between medicine, as broadly defined, and critical thinking. Each chapter offers suggestions for further reading on the issues raised, and each section concludes with an Afterword, written by a leading critic, outlining future possibilities for cutting-edge work in this area. Topics covered in this volume include: the affective body, biomedicine, blindness, breath, disability, early modern medical practice, fatness, the genome, language, madness, narrative, race, systems biology, performance, the postcolonial, public health, touch, twins, voice and wonder. Together the chapters generate a body of new knowledge and make a decisive intervention into how health, medicine and clinical care might address questions of individual, subjective and embodied experience.

    Writing for Immortality (2022)
    Johns Hopkins University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: Before the Civil War, American writers such as Catharine Maria Sedgwick and Harriet Beecher Stowe had established authorship as a respectable profession for women. But though they had written some of the most popular and influential novels of the century, they accepted the taboo against female writers, regarding themselves as educators and businesswomen. During and after the Civil War, some women writers began to challenge this view, seeing themselves as artists writing for themselves and for posterity.Writing for Immortality studies the lives and works of four prominent members of the first generation of American women who strived for recognition as serious literary artists: Louisa May Alcott, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Elizabeth Stoddard, and Constance Fenimore Woolson. Combining literary criticism and cultural history, Anne E. Boyd examines how these authors negotiated the masculine connotation of "artist," imagining a space for themselves in the literary pantheon. Redrawing the boundaries between male and female literary spheres, and between American and British literary traditions, Boyd shows how these writers rejected the didacticism of the previous generation of women writers and instead drew their inspiration from the most prominent "literary" writers of their day: Emerson, James, Barrett Browning, and Eliot.Placing the works and experiences of Alcott, Phelps, Stoddard, and Woolson within contemporary discussions about "genius" and the "American artist," Boyd reaches a sobering conclusion. Although these women were encouraged by the democratic ideals implicit in such concepts, they were equally discouraged by lingering prejudices about their applicability to women.

    E. E. Cummings (2022)
    Johns Hopkins University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: Originally published in 1960. In E. E. Cummings: The Art of His Poetry, Norman Friedman argues that critics who have focused on what Cummings's poetry lacks have failed to judge Cummings on his strengths. Friedman identifies a main strength of Cummings as his being a "sensual mystic." The book unpacks Cummings's subject matter, devices, and symbolism, ultimately helping readers develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of Cummings's work.

    Presses Universitaires de Bordeaux
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: Ce cahier, le cinquante quatrième de la collection « Eidôlon », est constitué par l’ensemble des actes du colloque « Paysages romantiques » qui s’est tenu à Bordeaux 3 en mai 1998. Il s’inscrit dans la tradition propre au LAPRIL en témoignant de la nécessaire pluridisciplinarité dans les recherches esthétiques. En effet, autour d’un thème littéraire déterminé, « le paysage romantique », ce cinquante quatrième cahier confronte et coordonne plusieurs approches, sans aucune fermeture méthodologique. C’est cette confrontation et cette coordination recherchées par le LAPRIL depuis sa fondation en 1976 par Claude Gilbert-Dubois qui permet au discours sur l’imaginaire et sur l’art de ne pas demeurer un exercice d’école.

    Albert Cohen (2022)
    Johns Hopkins University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: Honorable Mention winner in the Modern Language Association's Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize competition for French and Francophone Literary StudiesA major figure in twentieth-century letters, Albert Cohen (1895–1981) left a paradoxical legacy. His heavily autobiographical, strikingly literary, and polyphonic novels and lyrical essays are widely read by a devout public in France, yet have been largely ignored by academia. A self-consciously Jewish writer and activist, Cohen remained nevertheless ambivalent about Judaism. His self-affirmation as a Jew in juxtaposition with his satirical use of anti-Semitic stereotypes still provokes unease in both republican France and institutional Judaism.In Albert Cohen: Dissonant Voices, the first English-language study of this profound and profoundly misunderstood writer, Jack I. Abecassis traces the recurrent themes of Cohen's works. He reveals the dissonant fractures marking Cohen as a modernist, and analyzes the resistance to his work as a symptom of the will not to understand Cohen's main theme—"the catastrophe of being Jewish."For Abecassis, Cohen's diverse oeuvre forms a single "roman fleuve" exploring this perturbing theme through fragmentation and grotesquerie, fantasies and nightmares, the veiling and unveiling of the unspeakable.Abecassis argues that Cohen should not be read exclusively through the prism of European literature (Stendhal, Tolstoy, Proust), but rather as the retelling—inverting and ultimately exhausting, in the form of submerged plots—of the Biblical romances of Joseph and Esther. The romance of the charismatic Court Jew and its performance correlative, the carnival of Purim, generate the logic of Cohen's acute psychological ambivalence, historical consciousness and carnal sensuality—themes which link this modernist author to Genesis as well as to the literary practices of Sephardic crypto-Jews. Abecassis argues that Cohen's best-known work, Belle du Seigneur (1968), besides being an obvious tale of obsessive love and dissolution, is foremost a tale of political intrigue involving Solal, the meteoric-rising Jew in the League of Nations during the period of Appeasement (1936), and his ultimate self-destruction. Providing close readings and imaginative analyses of the entire literary output of one of twentieth-century France's most important Jewish writers, Abecassis presents here a major work of literary scholarship, as well as a broader study of the reception and influence of Jewish thought in French literature and philosophy.

    Idéologie(s) et roman pour la jeunesse au xxie siècle (2022)
    Presses Universitaires de Bordeaux
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: Né juste après la Révolution française pour désigner la science des idées, le mot « idéologie » s'est dévalué au cours du xxe siècle et il suscite aujourd'hui le débat à plusieurs titres, au premier chef lorsqu'il s'agit de le définir. Dans le domaine du livre de jeunesse, la conjonction entre idéologie, instruction publique et éducation s'inscrit au cœur des enjeux d'une littérature adressée et sous surveillance que l'auteur, l'éditeur, le médiateur ont toujours cherché à encadrer à des fins éducatives. C'est dans ce champ particulier que l'on se propose d'affronter la complexité d'une notion « labile et fourbe », d'après Bruno Blanckeman, pour en circonvenir les manifestations et les effets dans les entreprises romanesques de l'extrême contemporain. Faute de définition stable et univoque, sans doute convient-il ici d'embrasser la notion au pluriel et de concevoir les idéologies comme des « systèmes fixes de valeurs ordonnancées » qui trouvent un terrain de prédilection dans le roman, lui-même genre pluriel, « archi-genre » qui orchestre une polyphonie de discours et s'accommode de toutes les hybridités. En observant certains de ses sous-genres - roman-miroir, roman de fantasy, roman dystopique, roman post-colonial - les différents contributeurs sont conduits à se demander dans quelle mesure le roman contemporain pour la jeunesse met en œuvre une « poétique des valeurs » et s'il rend possible l'émergence de ces « fictions critiques » que Dominique Viart définit comme des textes où « le discours met en crise la pensée ». Les articles réunis ici interrogent dans les romans pour la jeunesse l'approche, souvent paradoxale, des grandes questions soulevées par les évolutions du monde contemporain. Au moment où l'actualité concernant l'école en France se cristallise à nouveau sur le sujet de l'enseignement de la morale, la réflexion s'attache notamment aux corpus romanesques prescrits par l'institution scolaire et à leur enseignement.

    Republic of Intellect (2022)
    Johns Hopkins University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-26
    Description: In the 1790s, a single conversational circle—the Friendly Club—united New York City's most ambitious young writers, and in Republic of Intellect, Bryan Waterman uses an innovative blend of literary criticism and historical narrative to re-create the club's intellectual culture. The story of the Friendly Club reveals the mutually informing conditions of authorship, literary association, print culture, and production of knowledge in a specific time and place—the tumultuous, tenuous world of post-revolutionary New York City. More than any similar group in the early American republic, the Friendly Club occupied a crossroads—geographical, professional, and otherwise—of American literary and intellectual culture. Waterman argues that the relationships among club members' novels, plays, poetry, diaries, legal writing, and medical essays lead to important first examples of a distinctively American literature and also illuminate the local, national, and transatlantic circuits of influence and information that club members called "the republic of intellect." He addresses topics ranging from political conspiracy in the gothic novels of Charles Brockden Brown to the opening of William Dunlap's Park Theatre, from early American debates on gendered conversation to the publication of the first American medical journal. Voluntary association and print culture helped these young New Yorkers, Waterman concludes, to produce a broader and more diverse post-revolutionary public sphere than scholars have yet recognized.
