Origins And Identities In French Literature

~~197,43€~~ 177,69€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The essays in this volume investigate origins and identities of individuals and groups in French literature from the seventeenth century to the present, as well in French literature in general. They show how, as France developed a national identity through its literature, individuals of various origins searched for their own identities and often called into question not only traditional identities, but also the very literary means of creating them.

Violence In French And Francophone Literature And Film

98,05€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Stories of violence - such as the account in Genesis of Cain's jealousy and murder of Abel - have been with us since the time of the earliest recorded texts. Undeniably, the scourge of violence fascinates, confounds, and saddens. What are its uses in literature - its appeal, forms, and consequences? Anchored by Alice Kaplan's substantial contribution, the thirteen articles in this volume cover diverse epochs, lands, and motives. One scholar ponders whether accounts of Huguenot martyrdom in the sixteenth-century might suggest more pride than piety. Another assesses the real versus the true with respect to a rape scene in The Heptameron. Female violence in fairy tales by Madame d'Aulnoy points to gender politics and the fragility of female solidarity, while another article examines similar issues in the context of Ananda Devi's works in present-day Mauritius. Other studies address the question of sadism in Flaubert, the unstable point of view of Emmanuel Carrere's L'Adversaire, the ambivalence toward violence in Chamoiseau's Texaco, the notions of "terror" and "tabula rasa" in the writings of Blanchot, the undoing of traditions of narrative continuity and authority in the 1998 film, A vendre, and consequences of the power differential in a repressive Haiti as depicted in the film Vers le Sud (2005). Paradoxes emerge in several studies of works where victims may become perpetrators, or vice versa.

Mother In/And French Literature

197,43€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The essays in this volume investigate maternity and the figure of the mother in French literature from France, Switzerland, Quebec and Africa, from the seventeenth century to the present. Drawing on cultural history, psychoanalysis, and feminist theory, as well as more traditional methods, they present maternity as a source of frustration and of joy, mothers as repressed and revered, daughters as wounded and loving, sons as domineering and dependent. Indeed, few things are simple where mothers - and especially where writing about mothers - are concerned.

Hybrid Genres / L'Hybridite Des Genres

173,58€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The essays collected in this volume explore the ways in which hybridity functions in a wide variety of visual, musical, and written texts from France, the Francophone world, and beyond. Hybridity is defined here as an unexpected interaction or combination between two or more forms--whether literary, filmic, ethnic, generic or gendered. The volume covers works ranging from the 16th to the 20th centuries, from Pierre de Ronsard to Woody Allen. The essays demonstrate that rather than being a uniquely postmodern or postcolonial phenomenon, hybridity may be integral to creativity itself, leading to the conclusion that hybrid forms tend to challenge authority by proposing alternatives to existing power structures or questioning conventional ways of thinking and viewing the world.

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Girls in French and Francophone Literature and Film is a collection of essays focusing on constructions of girlhood in French and Francophone Literature and Film from the late-Nineteenth to the early-Twenty-First centuries. The volume is firmly anchored at the intersection of French and Francophone studies and the bourgeoning field of girls' studies. Collectively, the articles demonstrate that girls' experience, historically viewed as a mere deviation from the "normative" male model, is a product of diverse ideological, cultural and economic factors, and is deserving of its own field of inquiry.
