May sinclair has been typically considered as a liminal author, positioned between two eras: the 19th and the 20th centuries, Victorian culture and modernism, traditional and avant-garde writing and thinking. As a result, traditional criticism has confined her to the...
Où l’on verra que la trilogie américaine de Roth peut s’envisager comme l’expression d’une constante réflexion sur la relation ambivalente et complexe qu’il entretient avec l’Amérique, qu’un fil de seuils infranchissables court dans Portnoy’s Complaint, que The...
This volume comes as a sequel to a previous publication, Impersonality and Emotion in Twentieth-Century British Literature, which explored the paradoxical connections between impersonality and emotion, two notions central to modernist as well as to later British...
Aucun numéro de revue n’a jamais été consacré intégralement à Emily Dickinson en France. Qu’on ne s’y méprenne pas, cette affirmation relève de bien autre chose que de la fierté qu’on peut ressentir à avoir comblé une lacune, et qui pourrait paraître déplacée. Elle...
Consacré à Elizabeth Bishop, l’ouvrage examine le traitement de l’espace visuel et métaphorique dans une poésie où l’instabilité prévaut. La frontière entre espace public et espace privé s’y brouille de diverses manières : par le truchement d’hétérotopies, par décadrage...
Ending Slavery broadens the scope of the anti-slavery struggle beyond the national and domestic narrative to draw a map of a new transnational and differentiated geography of abolitionism. It aims at complicating our understanding of the antislavery struggle by offering...
What makes the work of the American experimental writer Kathy Acker so utterly relevant today, almost thirty years after her passing? The articles collected in this volume aim to provide answers to this question. Indeed, through studies of both Acker’s published and...
This collection of essays means to explore the interaction between autonomy and commitment in an attempt at revisiting and possibly, revising conventional literary history. Until recently, literary history has indeed tended to present twentieth century British...
On the eve of the democratic elections scheduled in South Africa in 2009, this collection of essays analyses the many ways in which South Africans have been trying to heal the wounds of apartheid, as advocated in Nelson Mandela’s famous 1994 speech, delivered at the...
As liminal beings, ghosts seem particularly appropriate to define, question or challenge hybrid cultures where several, seemingly irreconcilable, identities coexist. The present volume wonders how they manifest themselves in the English-speaking world, and whether there...
‘Transport’ is a delightfully open word; adding an ‘s’ to the original makes it even more interesting. The participants in the Conference which was organized on this topic by the Cerpac, early November 2005 at the Université Paul-Valéry, Montpellier (France), explored...
What are the origins and nature of terror and terrorism in the United States and beyond? This book of essays about the history and contemporary reality of terror reveals little-known aspects of a compelling subject. Since the American and French Revolutions, governments...
Many writers started their professional lives in very diverse fields before embracing writing, or on the contrary have turned away from writing. The present volume seeks to explore the complex relationship between that ‘other life’ and writing. The aim is to determine...
From hard scrabble origins on the Plains of North Dakota, to longshoremen organizing on Manhattan’s West Side docks, to living the life of a Bohemian poet in Los Angeles and beyond, Thomas McGrath’s literary aspirations took him far from his humble beginnings. For over...
If Vizenor’s written work is remarkable for this constant repetition of the same excerpts, phrases, images or metaphors—a mannerism which can be quite unsettling, or even feel irritatingly complacent—, one cannot but be struck, again and again, by his very special...
Cet ouvrage collectif vise à mettre en perspective, par une approche pluridisciplinaire, la « dévolution » en Europe, c’est-à-dire le processus de redistribution des pouvoirs politiques, législatifs et administratifs au profit de l’échelon régional. Le cas du...
Questioning “Modernism and Unreadability” means exploring Modernism from the perspective of one of its most problematic effects: unreadability. Modernism is approached through the lens of texts known to be particularly resistant to interpretation-“ borderline” modernist...
One cannot fail to be impressed by the number of works of fiction relating to slavery and the slave trade, writing back to the original slave narratives of the 18th and 19th centuries. If the African-American authors of the 1960s and 1970s are now well-known, they find...
Over the last few decades, in the wake of the ‘Ethical Turn’, contemporary literature has been examined through the prism of the ethics of alterity. Yet, this may not be consistently the case with Victorian and Modernist literature, since relatively few of the authors...
Through its take on ‘the humble’, this volume attempts to reveal the depth and philosophical relevance of literature, its ethical and political dimension as well as its connection to life. Because it can be associated with social class, religion, psychology or ethics,...
