« Condamnés à mort » : les mots français de Walter Pater

2013

Cet article traite de l’utilisation des mots, expressions et citations françaises dans The Renaissance de Walter Pater (1873). L’usage érudit des langues étrangères par Pater se rattache à la stylistique décadente, mais sa précision et les effets d’éclaircissement et de masquage de sources ou de thèmes qu’il en tire sont propres à l’auteur. Si les mots expriment l’altérité de toute langue et le processus de traduction qu’implique l’utilisation de la langue selon lui, les mots français de ce texte désignent plus particulièrement l’altérité de la mort. This article focuses on the use of French words, expressions and citations in Walter Pater’s The Renaissance (1873), be they translated or not…
