French & Francophone Studies Faculty Works
Dans cet entretien enregistré en 2004 (actualisé pour les besoins de cette publication), l'écrivaine ivoirienne Véronique Tadjo, Grand Prix Littéraire d'Afrique Noire en 2005, médite d'abord sur les problèmes sociopolitiques de l'Afrique du Sud et sur le potentiel économique, sur le capital symbolique de ce pays où elle vit depuis 2001. Elle parle ensuite de son œuvre romanesque et poétique, de ses grands thèmes, de son écriture influencée surtout par l'oralité traditionnelle ainsi que de ses textes destinés à la jeunesse, textes qu'elle illustre très souvent ellemême. C'est sans doute cette versatilité formelle qui la distingue entre autres parmi les …

Rousseau, The Anticosmopolitan?, Helena Rosenblatt
Rousseau, The Anticosmopolitan?, Helena Rosenblatt
Publications and Research
Rousseau's repeated criticisms of the Enlightenment's ideal of cosmopolitanism has led to his thought being characterized as 'anticosmopolitan'. His work abounds in denunciations of the ideals of equality of treatment and universal rights supported by his contemporaries. Moreover, his liking of solitude, introspection and socialization in small circles and his preference for patriotism over equity among all men seem to set him up as the counterpoint of the universalism his contemporaries defended. However, a deeper insight into the work of the author of The Reveries of the Solitary Walker shows that, far from being incompatible with true cosmopolitanism, the moral …
On The Topic Of Pseudoclefts, Ileana Paul
On The Topic Of Pseudoclefts, Ileana Paul
French Studies Publications
This paper presents arguments in favor of a pseudocleft analysis of a certain class of sentences in Malagasy, despite the lack of an overt wh-element. It is shown that voice morphology on the verb creates an operator-variable relationship much like the one created by wh-movement in free relatives in English and other languages. The bulk of the paper argues in favor of an inversion analysis of specificational pseudoclefts in Malagasy: a predicate DP is fronted to a topic position from within a small clause constituent. Moreover, it is shown that the same inversion occurs in equative and specificational sentences in …

Spectres, Monstres Et Fantômes. Les Chants Maldoror" Et Le Spectacle De La Fantasmagorie, Eloise Sureau-Hale
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
Découverts quatre ans après la mort de leur auteur Isidore Ducasse dit le Comte de Lautréamont, Les Chants de Maldoror ont fait l'objet de nombreuses études. L'étrangeté du texte, les manèges narratologiques et les images déroutantes ont depuis la fin du XIXe siècle inspiré la critique. En revanche l'aspect ludique de l'oeuvre n'a retenu que peu de critiques. Pusique Ducasse demeurait au coeur d'un Paris en pleine effervescence culturelle, il ne serait pas difficile d'envisager un goût pour la culture populaire, le visuel, le cirque ou la magie, prévalents au milieu du siècle. Les Chants auraient-ils été pris trop au …

‘The Despair Of His Tutor’: Latin As Socioeducational Marker In Les Trois Mousquetaires, Emily A. Mcdermott
‘The Despair Of His Tutor’: Latin As Socioeducational Marker In Les Trois Mousquetaires, Emily A. Mcdermott
Classics Faculty Publication Series
A significant motif in Les Trois Mousquetaires is to communicate the four heroes’ differing natures through their differing relationships with the Latin language. The separate academic pedigrees thus suggested for the three actual musketeers, Porthos, Athos and Aramis, each represent one of the major education models of early 17th century France: the courtly academy, private tuition, and the Jesuit collège. In the case of the up-and-coming d’Artagnan, by contrast, Dumas proffers less a type of 17th century education than an updating of the social values of that period to coincide with those of his own time. The successes of this …

Along The Banks Of The Amazon: Ethnicity And Crosscultural Imaging In Jules Verne's La Jangada, Rudyard Alcocer
Along The Banks Of The Amazon: Ethnicity And Crosscultural Imaging In Jules Verne's La Jangada, Rudyard Alcocer
World Languages and Cultures Faculty Publications
This article focuses primarily on Jules Verne’s novel La Jangada (1881) within an evaluative and interdisciplinary postcolonial framework that emphasizes the novel’s relevance to scholars concerned with issues of ideology and visual culture in colonial Latin America. The postcolonial focus is implicated in the process of rendering visible the novel’s ideological agenda - one that addresses the role of the non-Westerner (Amazonian tribes, to be specific) in modernization. It is also foregrounded in relation to other works by Sue and Bernardin that describe Latin American “worlds” unknown to European readers and in the discussion of Léon Benett’s illustrations in relation …
Carol Symes. A Common Stage: Theatre And Public Life In Medieval Arras, Vicki L. Hamblin
Carol Symes. A Common Stage: Theatre And Public Life In Medieval Arras, Vicki L. Hamblin
Modern & Classical Languages
Operating from the premise that five surviving plays from thirteenth- century Arras are the products of a particular environment and therefore that their meaning is referential and contemporary, Symes argues against the traditionalist approach by which well-known works including Jehan Bodel's Jeu de saint Nicolas and Adam de la Halle's Jeu de Robin et Marion have been interpreted generically as examples of early French literary drama. Since medieval plays constitute the "scripted remains of activities" (2) that were publicly endorsed and publicly displayed, Symes maintains that they reflect instead the specific performance culture in which and to which they were …

Displacement In French/Displacement Of French: The Reggae And R’N’B Of Tiken Jah Fakoly And Corneille, Olivier Bourderionnet
Foreign Languages Faculty Publications
This paper examines the work and situations of two francophone singer-songwriters from Africa, Tiken Jah Fakoly and Corneille, through the notion of displacement. I attempt to answer important questions regarding language, identity, and the social role of the African pop artist in France and the francophone world. Tiken Jah Fakoly and Corneille embody the mediation between publics from two continents and the global music industry in a particular geopolitical context. They also belong to a generation of artists whose productions signal a shift in French popular music representations of Africa and Africans. Discussing these artists’ choice to sing in French …

Jean Sulivan (1913-1980): La Marginalité Dans La Vie Et L’Oeuvre, Eamon Maher
Books/Chapters
Le prêtre-écrivain Jean Sulivan est encore peu connu en France. Pourtant, Jacques Madaule a dit de lui dans Témoignage chrétien du 30 avril 1964 qu'il était "un auteur capable de continuer Bernanos". A travers l'étude de la marginalité dans la vie et l'oeuvre de Sulivan, l'ouvrage d'Eamon Maher entend mettre en lumière l'originalité d'un parcours et d'une écriture des marges : l'enfance dans une ferme bretonne, le travail de prêtre diocésain à Rennes et la naissance à la littérature, en marge des courants, roman catholique ou nouveau roman.

Joan Of Arc And The Crusade: Memorizing Medieval Examples To Improve A Renaissance King, Lidia Radi
Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications
In 1518, Le Penser de royal memoire was published in Paris by Guillaume Michel de Tours.2Thanks to the pioneering research conducted by Anne-Marie Lecoq in her monumental book Francois Ier imaginaire, this allegorical text has recently caught the attention of scholars as part of an important moral and political literary production that was published under the reign of King Francis I (r. 1515-1547). Lecoq's study and subsequent works, such as the critical edition of Jean Thenaud's Triomphe des Vertus by Titia Schuurs-Janssen, shed new light on the literature of propaganda addressed to Francis I, the king …
Tortured Bodies, Loved Bodies: Gendering African Popular Fiction, Pim Higginson
Tortured Bodies, Loved Bodies: Gendering African Popular Fiction, Pim Higginson
French and Francophone Studies Faculty Research and Scholarship
This essay examines the gendering of the crime novel in an African context. Specifically, it proposes that Malian Author Aida Diallo's novel Kouty, memoire de sang uses the gendered body to critique the West's delight in pornographies of sub-Saharan African violence while challenging the masculinist tendencies of African male authors of crime fiction. Most powerfully, the protagonist abides by and disturbs the continuity between gender and genre. By introducing recognizable tropes from the romance novel, Diallo productively challenges the persistent hegemonic strains residing latently within this popular literary tradition. In so doing, she finally, and this through a strategic manipulation …

Rewriting The Writing Mother In Marie Darrieussecq's Le Bébé, Claire Marrone
Rewriting The Writing Mother In Marie Darrieussecq's Le Bébé, Claire Marrone
Languages Faculty Publications
This article studies the innovative maternal portrait in Marie Darrieussecq's Le Bébé (2002), the autobiographical story of a mother's first nine months with her newborn son. It also examines how Darrieussecq engages in the riveting debate surrounding maternal creativity. On the one hand, Le Bébé is a "success story," one that attests to the victories of the feminist movement. On the other hand, the text examines the new challenges of today's writing mothers. Throughout the work, the "mother as scientist" analyzes her developing child while the nurturing "mom" pens her joys, discoveries, and difficulties. The article concludes that because the …

L'Orlanda De Jacqueline Harpman: Virginia Woolf Rencontre Carl Gustav Jung, Sylvie Vanbaelen
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
Confrentée maintes fois à la question du rapport entre ses deux activités professionnelles, la psychanalyse et la littérature, Jacqueline Harpman ne cesse de maintenir qu'il s'agit là de deux domaines bien séparés. Alors que l'analyse réclame tout son sérieux, écrire s'avère être pour elle un divertissement auquel elle s'adonne par pur plaisir. S'il est difficile de croire chez elle à l'étanchéité de ces deux displines, c'est là une impossibilité lorsqu'on s'attelle à la lecture d'Orlanda (1996). Harpman elle-même est forcée de concéder:
