Modéliser l'affectivité : la constitution d'un " corps " dans L'Astrée

subject

description

This article tackles the question of the 'intime' by thinking about the modelling of the passions in the space of pastoral novel, Honore d'Urfe's L'Astrée. It studies the ways by which this space forms both an inner and an interior space for an affective and moral community. Thus it questions the relationship between the shepherd's body of passions and the pastorale setting-up of a collective corporate "body". This relationship must be understood in the context of the politico-religious issues from the end of the sixteenth to the beginning of the seventeenth century.
