The Bog Body As Mnemotope: Nationalist Archaeologies In Heaney And Tournier, Anthony Purdy Dec 2001

The Bog Body As Mnemotope: Nationalist Archaeologies In Heaney And Tournier, Anthony Purdy

Anthony Purdy

The sometimes beautifully preserved Iron Age bodies that used to turn up from time to time in the peat-bogs of Northwestern Europe have moved and intrigued writers since P.V. Glob published his classic archaeological account, The Bog People, in 1965. Locating the specificity of the literary bog body in its ability to compress time, to render the past visible in the present, the article seeks to read the figure as a mnemotope, defined provisionally as any chronotopic motif which manifests the presence of the past, the conscious or unconscious memory traces of a more or less distant period in the …

Une Anaphore Nue En Malgache, Ileana Paul Dec 2001

Une Anaphore Nue En Malgache, Ileana Paul

Ileana Paul

Cet article porte sur l’anaphore malgache tena ‘corps’. Il est démontré que cette anaphore est un nominal «nu». À cause de sa forme, la distribution de tena est assez restreinte et contraste avec la distribution d’un autre élément supposément anaphorique, ny tenany ‘son corps’. Ce dernier n’est pas une anaphore, en effet, mais a la distribution et l’interprétation d’un nominal complexe qui contient un pronom possessif. This article examines the Malagasy anaphor tena ‘body’. It is shown that this anaphor is a bare noun and therefore has a highly restricted distribution. Tena is then contrasted with another anaphor-like element, ny …

Hybrid Discourse And Performance In The Old French Pastourelle, Christopher Callahan Dec 2001

Hybrid Discourse And Performance In The Old French Pastourelle, Christopher Callahan

Christopher Callahan

When the pastourelle appears in French in the late twelfth century, some forty years after Marcabru's pioneering "L'autrier jost una sebissa," it is distinguished from its Occitan predecessors1 by two discursive features that have both made its typological classification a delicate issue2 and assured its longevity. The French pastourelle was first of all a pioneer in the mixing of social registers. Its characteristic confrontation between aristocratic narrator and shepherdess intersects both thematically and temporally with Andreas Capellanus's De amore3 and the two reflect, as Michel Zink has argued,4 preoccupations which were peculiar to France. Indeed, the pastorela did not acquire, …

Canon Law, Primogeniture, And The Marriage Of Ebain And Silence, Christopher Callahan Dec 2001

Canon Law, Primogeniture, And The Marriage Of Ebain And Silence, Christopher Callahan

Christopher Callahan

From the Introduction:
 
King Ebain's decision, at the close of the Roman de Silence,1 to wed its eponymous heroine, whom he has just restored to her rightful position as countess of Cornwall, strikes modern readers as impetuous and poorly conceived. This marriage is particularly disturbing in that it effects a complete reversal of the case which Master Heldris seems to be advancing on Silence's behalf. Marriage to the very sovereign who was responsible for her predicament hardly seems a
fitting resolution to a tale that belies its own misogynous rhetoric by presenting Silence and her subterfuge in a …
