Philosophie du roman personnel : de Chateaubriand à Fromentin, 1802-1863
2010
International audience; A la jointure du roman écrit à la première personne et de l'autobiographie, le roman personnel, de Chateaubriand à Fromentin, de René à Dominique, pose une question moderne : la fiction serait-elle un laboratoire d’expérimentation de la subjectivité qui puisse contester à la démarche autobiographique l’exclusivité de la connaissance de soi ? A quelles conditions la fiction peut-elle dire la vérité ? Un romancier ne soutiendrait-il de son autorité la cause de l’illusion que pour en faire la forme visible du vrai ? Sur la base d’un corpus comptant une quinzaine de romans autobiographiques, Véronique Dufief-Sanchez montre l’émergence du genre au gré de grands textes, co…
La question du père et du fils dans l'autofiction (S. Doubrosky, A. Robbe-Grillet, H. Guibert)
2012
This thesis will study the construction of fantasy in autofictional writing from a psychoanalytical perspective, focusing on Serge Doubrovsky’s Fils, Alain Robbe-Grillet’s Le Miroir qui revient and Hervé Guibert’s A l’ami qui ne m’a pas sauvé la vie. Taking up a phrase by Alain Robbe-Grillet’s, this study will rely on two different axes to inform autofictional discourse: firstly, the autobiography writer is bent on “creating an own statue of himself” while, on the other hand, the autofiction writer sets out to “project an image out of himself”, as it were. Gradually, there emerges the teenage imaginary construction of a son caught up in his aporias when faced with the analyst-father of the …

The humour in science fiction litterature : identification ans specification of its contours, its attributes, its techniques and its variations
2014
This thesis is divided in two parts. The first part suggests a theory of humour, it starts studying that concept by explaining its enunciative, logical or syntactical structures in order to draw a clear vision of it, before offering a first attempt to define it. Then it establishes necessary distinctions between the various categories of the risible to refine the delineation of the contours of humour. Once the concept is marked out, the theory of humour suggests an original typology of humourous themes and a study of the three main variations of humour, before focusing on its purpose. The second part discusses, in the light of certain concepts developed in the first part, the question of hu…
Jean Giono : mythical ways to the discovery of « self »
2013
The aim of this study was to follow the path to recovery myth in the novelistic work of Jean Giono. For Giono, the ancient world remains a permanent and inalienable human condition. Resume is often a myth of his hero to remake another ego, a similar one or the opposite one. The mythical world of Giono, as represented in his works, is of course the psychological imagination and the desire to find a path that led to the self discovery. Being self or being an Other, this is the fundamental question in the contemporary literature. This problem takes a full extent in the post-war writers. During his real existence, Giono invented the myth of the author through the "portrait of the artist himself…
