'In Mucker I was born': humour et pittoresque dans "The Green Fool" de Patrick Kavanagh
2004
International audience; Kavanagh’s The Green Fool (1938) consists of a double portrait of himself and his birthplace, the main motifs of which are humour and wit. In his self-portrait, humour dominates, enabling him to positively, if not, proudly, single himself out : his imputed status as « village fool » or « family idiot » actually reveals his essential singularity as a poet. Contrastingly, his portrait of Inniskeen is marked by farcical theatricality and witticisms galore. Farce and wit prove compelling instruments of ridicule and apt ways to circumvent the constraints of his milieu. Yet their dominance in the communal portrait hints at Kavanagh’s failure to overcome his suffering from …

L’autoreprésentation féminine dans la bande dessinée pornographique
2017
What happens when feminine authors investigate porn-comics and draw themselves in it ? Self-depiction of feminine authors conveys something original in a field where it usually is a way to express a private fantasy. From feminist comics of the 70s to the most recent porn comics, authors’ bodies are not sex objects anymore, they are the subject of a narration. Self-depiction is a new material for porn-comics and gives sincerity to the stories, it may be a way to express political views. Self-fantasy, sex confession or physical metamorphosis are the multiple ways self-depiction provides the feminine author to strengthen her authorship. Implicitly those self-depicted porn-authors draw up an in…

Søren Kierkegaard et les masques de l’autobiographie
2010
Si Søren Kierkegaard, contrairement à Jean – Paul Sartre, n’a pas expressément sacrifié à l’autobiographie, il est cependant indéniable que l’on découvre, à travers son œuvre, des autobiographies déguisées qui prennent diverses formes. Ce phénomène n’est sans doute pas étranger au fait que Kierkegaard accorde non seulement une importance capitale à la notion d’existence mais qu’il considère aussi que sa propre existence est à l’origine de sa réflexion philosophique, voire que seule l’existenc...
The (im)possible success of disadvantaged students. Reflections on education, migration and social change
2019
The paper focuses on the ?unexpected pathways? of successful students with an immigrant background: these biographical routes, that seems socially impossible, raise theoretical issues around the individual-society, actor-structure relationship. Disadvantaged students who succeed represent a sociological challenge in the attempt to understand atypical situations and to identify the institutional processes and the structural opportunities that facilitate them, reducing ethnic inequalities in education. This framework is the starting point of the Su.Per. project (Success in educational pathways of students with immigrant background), based on the collection of written autobiographies of 65 imm…

2021
This chapter explores how growing up environments and landscapes are remembered, described and depicted in autobiographies written by people who experienced the reconstruction era in northern Finland in their childhood and youth. The article is based on a collection of submissions to the essay called “Generations of Youth” in 2010 and archived in the Finnish Folklore Archives. The texts provide an interesting opportunity to investigate the cultural meanings attached to growing up environments, mindscapes, and places of childhood and youth in post-war Finland. The chapter combines approaches from the fields of history as well as humanistic geography. It addresses the question of how children…
