Carter On 10 July 1901, Marcel Proust called on his friend Léon Yeatman in his law office and announced: ‘Today I’m thirty years old, and I’ve achieved nothing!’ (Corr, ii, 32). Yeatman must have protested, but Marcel had good reason to be discouraged. Nearly all his friends had established themselves as writers or launched other successful careers. Although he held university degrees in literature, philosophy and law, he had never entered a profession. He had stubbornly rejected the advice of his father, Dr Adrien Proust, one of France’s most distinguished physicians and scientists. After one of their heated discussions about his failure to choose a career, Marcel wrote: ‘My dearest papa ...I still believe that anything I do other than literature and philosophy will be just so much wasted time’ (Corr, i, 237). Dr Proust was a self-made man from the little town of Illiers. His fortune had greatly increased when he married Jeanne Weil, the daughter of a wealthy Jewish family. Proust adored his mother, who, though modest and discreet, quoted with ease from the classics in several languages.

  • The Theater in the Fiction of MARCEL PROUST Ïaywood Linn
    The Theater in the Fiction of MARCEL PROUST - ^ ^ . n*^pp/.. ïaywood Linn The Theater in the Fiction of Marcel Proust JOHN GAYWOOD LINN That Marcel Proust and the theater of his time were not strangers to one another is evident to even the most casual reader of A la recherche du temps perdu. From Mr. Linn's thoroughgoing investigation, however, it is clear that the significance of this re­ markable abundance of theatrical and dra­ matic references, both in Proust's great novel and his other fiction, is far greater than has heretofore been suspected. For Mr. Linn uncovers a very definite pattern and a rigid control in Proust's deployment of theatrical metaphor and allusion, in his use of quotations from the drama, and in the parallels he draws between the actions of plays, events in real life, and the lives of his characters. Ultimately, Mr. Linn demonstrates, through Proust's constant use of theatrical reference as a means of delineating character and per­ sonality, building and destroying illusion, and depicting the setting for a bit of action, that life and art in his writings become so closely interwoven, so intimately interrelated, that one is scarcely discernible from the other as they subtly merge and then separate again. Art, for Proust, remains the constant stand arc! against which life is to be measured; and (Continued on back flap) /fie Çffîècfeeti tff $o/in Copyright © 1966 by the Ohio State University Press All Rights Reserved Library of Congress Catalogue Card Number: 65-24374 All quotations from Marcel Proust's Du côté de chez Swann, A l'ombre des jeunes filles en fleurs, Le Côté de Guermantes, Soâome et Gomorrhc, La Prisonnière, La Fugitive, and Le Temps retrouvé are from the 1954 Gallimard edition of A la recherche du temps perdu in the "Bibliothèque de la Pléiade."

  • Octave Mirbeau, L'affaire Et L'ecriture De Combat
    OCTAVE MIRBEAU, L’AFFAIRE ET L’ECRITURE DE COMBAT Les livres d’histoire (du moins ceux qui accordent encore un peu plus de quelques lignes à l’Affaire Dreyfus) ne retiennent souvent de l’intervention des intellectuels qu’un nom, Zola, et qu’un texte, la lettre que l’écrivain adressa au Président de la République Félix Faure pour s’insurger contre la condamnation du capitaine. Pourtant, les historiens ainsi que les critiques littéraires savent que le clan des intellectuels ne s’est pas limité à ce seul nom. Marie-Claire Bancquart rappelle, par exemple, l’engagement rapide d’Anatole France dans un combat longtemps incertain, et ce en dépit de sa peur, de l’attitude de ses collègues de l’Académie française voire de ses amitiés anciennes pour Ernest Chavaray, l’un des experts en écriture qui attribuèrent à Dreyfus le fameux bordereau : « Le 23 novembre 1897, dans une interview à L’Aurore, Anatole France déclare qu’il refuse de se prononcer sur la culpabilité de Dreyfus, n’ayant rien vu ni rien su des pièces du procès. [...] Dire en ce 23 novembre 1897 que l’on ressent des incertitudes à propos de la condamnation de Dreyfus, c’est aller contre les sentiments de presque tous les Français. Anatole France aggrave son cas en faisant paraître le même jour, dans la série de l’Histoire contemporaine, un article intitulé “Les Juifs devant l’Église” [...] Voilà une prise de parti sans ambiguïté. L’interview d’Anatole France dans L’Aurore, l’article dans L’Écho de Paris, ne peuvent se lire l’un sans l’autre : refus des juridictions spéciales, du secret de l’instruction, du cléricalisme et de l’antisémitisme.

  • Secularism, Assimilation and the Crisis of Multiculturalism It Is Meant to Overcome
    IMISCOE Jansen This remarkable book develops a political theoretical critique of contemporary RESEarcH discourses on secularism and assimilation. Jansen argues that the perspective of assimilating distinct ethno-religious minorities by incorporating them into a secular and supposedly neutral public sphere can generate and perpetuate the very distinctions of Multiculturalism Assimilation and the Crisis Secularism, it is meant to overcome. To flesh out this insight she borrows from the literature on the paradoxes of assimilation as experienced by the French Jews in the late 19th century, through a contextualised reading of Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time. Secularism, Assimilation and Jansen offers a dynamic, critical multiculturalism as an alternative to discourses focusing on secularism, assimilation and integration. the Crisis of Multiculturalism Yolande Jansen is a senior researcher at the Amsterdam Center for Globalisation Studies, University of Amsterdam. She is also a Socrates professor of humanism in relation to religion and secularity at the VU University Amsterdam. French Modernist Legacies “[A] brilliant and thorough philosophical reading of current writings on assimilation, multiculturalism and secularism, weaving together a rereading of Proust on Jewish experiences of the paradoxes of assimilation with current debates about the situation of Muslims in Europe.” John R. Bowen, Dunbar-Van Cleve Professor in Arts & Sciences, Washington University in St. Louis Yolande Jansen “Jansen’s brilliant and insightful analysis draws on a variety of fields and lucidly shows how the crisis is a crisis in modernity.” Brian Klug, Philosophy, University of Oxford “Jansen’s work is a hard-hitting and back to basics reminder of multiculturalism fundamentals. It also offers a brilliant, pragmatic and insightful analysis of what secularism makes invisible about the position of Muslims in France today.” Rim-Sarah Alouane, Université Toulouse I-Capitole Amsterdam University Press 978 90 8964 596 8 · .
