South (2016) et North (2018) de Frank Owen : diptyque post-apocalyptique américain ou sud-africain ?
2020
National audience; La présente communication se propose d'examiner les représentations d'un avenir post-apocalyptique dans le diptyque South (2016) et North (2018) de Frank Owen et de s'interroger sur une possible hybridation des imaginaires post-apocalyptiques. Bien qu'écrits par un duo d'auteurs sud-africains (Frank Owen étant en réalité le pseudonyme adopté par Diane Awerbuck et Alex Latimer pour écrire ces romans à quatre mains), South et North se déroulent tous deux aux Etats-Unis. Dans le monde post-apocalyptique dépeint dans le diptyque, le pays est divisé en deux et des vents mortels soufflent sur le sud, décimant la population, qui a dû retourner à un mode de vie primitif où domine…

El sirventès en la poesia catalana dels segles XIV-XV : un catàleg
2018
The sirventes of the troubadour era has been broadly studied, but there are not overall explanations concerning the evolution of the sirventes genre in the Catalan-speaking lands of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. This paper propounds a catalogue of sirventesos concerning its historical development, the troubadour models, rhetorical and grammatical treatises, and genre assignment in rubrics. Our catalogue contains thirty-one Catalan sirventesos , including twenty-eight extant items and three items lost. In some cases the literary motifs of the sirventes cross boundaries in a process of poetic hybridization with other moral genres which borrow out themes, images and rhetorical strate…

"For beyond this trading community lies family life" : filiation et écriture dans Crossing the River
2016
This paper examines the relationship between filiation, affiliation and writing in Crossing the River. First, it examines the diversity of literary genres incorporated, revisited and juxtaposed in a novel often defined by its polyphonic structure. This analysis leads to a study of the ways in which family ties, and particularly the links between parents and children, are staged in the text through a complex pattern of repetitions and inversions. The echoes which connect, and sometimes oppose, the various parts of the novel suggest that repetition and inversion are the tools through which family identity is constructed throughout the novel. The reason behind these textual strategies may also…
