The Race For Globalization: Modernity, Resistance And The Unspeakable In Three African Francophone Texts, Francesca Sautman
The Race For Globalization: Modernity, Resistance And The Unspeakable In Three African Francophone Texts, Francesca Sautman
Publications and Research
The "global village" that media pundits and politicians evoke as general currency might well be visualized, in this onset of the twenty-first century, as a village beset by fires, riot, and rampage, where hunger reigns unopposed. The paradox of the term poorly conceals the untold violence that the violence of rhetoric seeks to erase. Yet, contemporary African Francophone texts have been tearing off this mask for decades, locating themselves less often in idyllic villages, and more frequently, on the cable lines of suffering between dying villages and indigent cities. In the literature of the 1980s, the focus of this essay, …

La Chanson D'Yde Et Olive: A Parable Of A Medieval Self-Made Man, NoéMie Young-Studer
La Chanson D'Yde Et Olive: A Parable Of A Medieval Self-Made Man, NoéMie Young-Studer
Dissertations and Theses
La chanson d'Yde et Olive, an early fourteenth-century epic poem from the Picard region, exemplifies the medieval custom of text renewal that seeks to adapt pagan materials to fit Christian doctrine. Largely based on the plot of the Ovidian fable Iphis and Ianthe from The Metamorphoses, its main character Yde undergoes a metaphorical transformation from a woman into a man. Moreover, much like the Ovide moralisé, a Christianized adaptation of the Latin original, Yde et Olive's message can be understood as a Christian parable for the purging of the sinful soul. To set up the poem's didactic message, the poet …

Les Illuminations D'Arthur Rimbaud : Reflexions Sur Neuf Traductions En Anglais (1946-2002), Brian R. Rundgren
Theses : Honours

The thesis also aims to give some insight into the extraordinary variety of techniques used by these nine translators. The nine translations of the Illuminations that we have studied in the thesis are those by: Louise Varese (1946,1957), Olivier Bernard (1962,!997), Wallace Fowlie (1966), Enid Rhodes Peschel (1973), Bertrand …

De La Fonction De La Femme Exotique Dans Quelques Romans Francais Du Dix-Neuvieme Siecle, Emilie Laurence Methy
Graduate Student Theses, Dissertations, & Professional Papers
La fem m e exotique est un personnage récurrent dans les romans français du dixneuvièm e siècle. Son rôle dans ces fictions mérite d ’être étudié. A l’époque, le voyage en A frique et surtout en Orient était l ’objet d ’un véritable engouement. Le séjour à l’étranger n ’était plus seulem ent une exploration d ’ordre scientifique, mais aussi et surtout un moyen d ’évasion. Hommes et fem m es partaient à la découverte de nouvelles contrées dans le but d ’oublier, en l’espace d ’un voyage, la société française pragmatique et bourgeoise qui tendait à réprim er les …
