The myth of Medea is brought in to reflect upon the tragic history...

Simone de Beauvoir's Fiction: A Psychoanalytic Rereading
ISBN: 9783906768557 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Simone de Beauvoir s fiction is a largely unexplored field. This book offers new readings of her whole fictional corpus, using psychoanalysis as a critical lens. Vehemently anti-Freudian at the beginning of her career, Beauvoir denied the validity of his theories; however, her fiction hints at a different tale. It is the untold Beauvoirean story this book sets out to tell.
Firstly, using her own autobiographical admissions it examines her resolute resistance to psychoanalysis and offers possible reasons for her initial violent disavowal of its concepts. Secondly, it traces her explicit... Simone de Beauvoir s fiction is a largely unexplored field. This book offers new readings of her whole fictional corpus, using psychoanalysis as a cri...

Masking Strategies: Unwrapping the French Paratext
ISBN: 9783034307468 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Gerard Genette s seminal study of the paratext, Seuils (1987), is the starting point for this collection of essays, all of which seek not only to engage with Genette s taxonomy and apply it, but also to interrogate it and to move through and beyond it. In addition to mapping Genette s organization of (para)textual space onto a number of French texts, including novels and plays, texts translated into French, book series and publishing marketing material, these essays take up some of the challenges raised in Seuils as well as posing their own. For example, the relationship between...

Viva Pinter: Harold Pinter's Spirit of Resistance
ISBN: 9783039119295 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. In his Nobel speech, entitled Art, Truth and Politics, Harold Pinter explained how he was fighting against the -tapestry of lies-. It is indeed those daily lies, lies of love or of state, that are exposed in this book, which emphasises his political agenda. In March 2007, the University of Lyon (Jean Moulin) and the ENS LSH organised VIVA PINTER, a tribute to his work centred on a key notion for the city of Lyon, the Spirit of Resistance. Pinter combined a concise, fragmented and syllogistic style with a keen perception of the metaphors of our time. The most specific instrument of this...

Rhythms: Essays in French Literature, Thought and Culture
ISBN: 9783039113491 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. As they oscillate and flow between action and aesthetics, habit and creativity, rhythms are vital to our understanding of how subjectivities are constructed upon the shifting borderlines between life and art. Yet whilst rhythm remains an established concept in studies of French poetry, this is the first major overview to address the centrality of rhythm in fields such as literature, philosophy, dance and film, and to link these debates across periods and disciplines within French Studies. Drawing on thinkers such as Deleuze and Guattari, Kristeva, Lefebvre, Meschonnic, and Virilio, the...

Francophone Writing in Transition: Algeria 1900-1945
ISBN: 9783039102945 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 339 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Francophone writing in Algeria has traditionally been read as grounded in displacement and erasure of the colonised culture. Yet even the most assimilated evolue remained critical and conscious of a dual allegiance; and even the most resistant underwent significant acculturation, which they had to integrate into their claims to rootedness in a local community (itself jarringly reshaped by colonialism). Their writing (both fiction and non-fiction) is studied here for the first time as the hesitant articulation of strategies of alternative representation and, however modest, of deviance...
