Is encountering the Other still possible in a world in which we all have become rootless, disconnected and strangers, alienated from the outside world and from ourselves? Does the question of Otherness still bear a meaning after the deconstruction of the self and the crumbling of the very concept of identity? The author examines some major twentieth-century poetic responses to the violent denial of otherness and difference in modern Europe. The myth of Medea is brought in to reflect upon the tragic history...

Matters of Time provides an unorthodox array of perspectives on materialist thought and representation in twentieth-century French intellectual culture.

A partir d une lecture detaillee de L Impossible, ce livre met peu a peu en lumiere la relation paradoxale qui s etablit dans le mouvement de l ecriture entre le langage, l experience et le monde. Cette approche favorise les confrontations en sciences humaines et en meme temps, elle eclaire le sens de la haine de la poesie qui excede les limites de la litterature et de la philosophie. Par leur exploration du mode de reference propre a l enonciation, ces analyses permettent aussi de questionner...

Locating Hybridity: Creole, Identities and Body Politics in the Novels of Ananda Devi
ISBN: 9783034318143 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Despite its inherent negative implications as a purveyor of essentialism, the concept of hybridity holds a great deal of critical purchase in the postcolonial world. Hybridity allows identities and cultures to be conceptualized as different and manifold, allowing for the undermining of the binaries of self and other, centre and periphery, colonizer and colonized. In Mauritius, a country where numerous civilizations (African, European, Indian, Chinese) coexist and have constructed a new society, linguistic practices, culture and the body are all intrinsically linked to the concept of identity....

La phenomenologie permet de saisir ces elements dans les textes litteraires et dans un dialogue avec les autres arts. Il manquait a la theorie critique un ouvrage d abord simple sur la valeur litteraire dans la pensee de Merleau-Ponty, qui puise dans son...

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...

French in Canada: Language Issues
ISBN: 9783039101429 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book analyses comprehensively the complex linguistic situation in Canada focusing particularly on the position of the French language at both national and provincial levels. Language issues in Canada are of great interest to linguists and sociolinguists for many reasons, not least because of Canada s policy of official bilingualism (Official Languages Act, 1969). The authors address a wide range of topics of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of French and Linguistics as well as readers with a specialist interest in Canadian or Quebec Studies. Individual chapters discuss...

Ce livre se consacre a l uvre de Marie-Claire Bancquart, poete, romanciere, essayiste et critique. Habiter le monde en conscience, en y effleurant des joies, en y devinant des survies dans l immanence, sans rien ignorer de ses violences, habiter - avec la mort, quartier d orange entre les dents -, telle est la tache que se fixe Bancquart dans sa poesie. - Braille du vivant -, la langue du poeme doit permettre, avec simplicite, exigence, tendresse, d interroger l enigme des choses, entre presence et fragilite, parole et suspens.

Painted Poetry: Colour in Baudelaire's Art Criticism
ISBN: 9783039110940 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 241 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Before becoming a poet, Charles Baudelaire was an art critic; and he made his literary debut with the Salon de 1845. Its failure to find a receptive audience led him to write the groundbreaking Salon de 1846 with its pivotal chapter on colour, in which Baudelaire challenged fundamental critical concepts of art by insisting on colour s complexity, expressivity and modernity. Through a close reading of his critical essays on art, this book examines how Baudelaire s thoughts on colour developed throughout his life and sets them in the context of traditional views of colour. What...

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...

The essays collected in this volume include a selection of those presented at a conference in the Universitat Rovira i Virgili, Tarragona, Spain, in 2002. They highlight the existence of a European network of women s writing which became a valuable source of consciousness-raising, not only for European women writers, but also for their readers. The main theme running through the essays is love: women loving against the odds and transcending all kinds of obstacles. Does love speak a common language or is it inevitably linked to social mores and individual experience? Does desire work in the...
