  • JACQUES ROUSSEAU's EMILE By
    TOWARD AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE NOVELISTIC DIMENSION OF JEAN- JACQUES ROUSSEAU’S EMILE by Stephanie Miranda Murphy A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Stephanie Miranda Murphy 2020 Toward an Understanding of the Novelistic Dimension of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Emile Stephanie Miranda Murphy Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science ABSTRACT The multi-genre combination of philosophic and literary expression in Rousseau’s Emile provides an opportunity to explore the relationship between the novelistic structure of this work and the substance of its philosophical teachings. This dissertation explores this matter through a textual analysis of the role of the novelistic dimension of the Emile. Despite the vast literature on Rousseau’s manner of writing, critical aspects of the novelistic form of the Emile remain either misunderstood or overlooked. This study challenges the prevailing image in the existing scholarship by arguing that Rousseau’s Emile is a prime example of how form and content can fortify each other. The novelistic structure of the Emile is inseparable from Rousseau’s conception and communication of his philosophy. That is, the novelistic form of the Emile is not simply harmonious with the substance of its philosophical content, but its form and content also merge to reinforce Rousseau’s capacity to express his teachings. This dissertation thus proposes to demonstrate how and why the novelistic

  • "The Odyssey"And Soyinka^S "The Bacchae of Euripides"
    Cross-Cultural Dialogues with Greek Classics: Walcotù "The Odyssey"and Soyinka^s "The Bacchae of Euripides" VALÉRIE BADA D EREK WALCOTT'S The Odyssey and Wole Soyinka's The Bacchae of Euripides represent creative attempts to revitalise Western canonical works by offering a visionary reconstruction of subterranean mythic recurrences through a creolization rooted in Caribbean folklore, on the one hand, and an explora• tion of the myth of Dionysos in the light of Yoruba cosmology on the other. This imaginative reshaping of literary and reli• gious myths does not so much betray a need for classical valida• tion as it reveals a comparative scrutinising of archetypal patterns in order to disclose "latent cross-culturalities" (Harris, "Quetzalcoatl" 40, qtd. in Maesjelinek 37), that is, a subterra• nean cross-cultural polyphonic structure. Homer's epic and Euripides' play appear as palimpsests constantly disrupted by overarching textual revisions entirely written in the spaces be• tween the Greek words. The revelation of cross-cultural streams of myths, concepts and symbols underscores the regenerative potentiality of the original literary paradigms whose latent am• biguity, shifting meaning and archetypal qualities define them as poetic sites particularly open to creative alterations. Walcott's and Soyinka's plays reveal an unrelenting obsession with myth and make clear its complex interaction with history. The two playwrights' poetic imagination is constantly immersed in currents of change by crossing mythological archetypes (Car• ibbean, Yoruba and European) with fresh historical insights and by bringing myths "into explosive contact with the rawness of the present" (Moore 169). This reactivation and creative ARIEL: A Review of International English Literature, 31:3, July 2000 8 VALÉRIE BADA mutation of mythological themes reveal the two poets as both users and creators of myths: their imagination is both rooted in mythic grounds and involved in a mythopoeic dynamics of cul• tural cross-fertilization.

It thus traces both the emergence of children’s literature as a publishing category and the transformation of the Odyssey into a tale of adventure – a perception of the Odyssey which is still widely accepted today (and not only among children) but which is not, for example, how Aristotle understood the poem.

This paper argues, however, that Fénelon, and particularly his political and educational treatise Telemachus (1699), plays a significant role in a number of Godwin’s subsequent fictional works. Employing Telemachus to explore the theories of education presented by Godwin in the various editions of Political Justice and The Enquirer (1797), this paper explores the manner in which Godwin’s version of the Enlightenment transcendence of pedagogical power comes up against its limits.

  • The Return of Ulysses ‘Only Edith Hall Could Have Written This Richly Engaging and Distinctive Book
    the return of ulysses ‘Only Edith Hall could have written this richly engaging and distinctive book. She covers a breathtaking range of material, from the highest of high culture to the camp, cartoonish, and frankly weird; from Europe to the USA to Africa and the Far East; and from literature to film and opera. Throughout this tour of the huge variety of responses that there have been to the Odyssey, a powerful argument emerges about the appeal and longevity of the text which reveals all the critical and political flair that we have come to expect of this author. It is all conveyed with the infectious excitement and clarity of a brilliant performer. The Return of Ulysses represents a major contribution to how we assess the continuing influence of Homer in modern culture.’ — Simon Goldhill, Professor of Greek Literature and Culture, University of Cambridge ‘Edith Hall has written a book many have long been waiting for, a smart, sophisticated, and hugely entertaining cultural history of Homer’s Odyssey spanning nearly three millennia of its reception and influence within world culture. A marvel of collection, association, and analysis, the book yields new discoveries on every page. In no other treatment of the enduring figure of Odysseus does Dante rub shoulders with Dr Who, Adorno and Bakhtin with John Ford and Clint Eastwood. Hall is superb at digging into the depths of the Odyssean character to find what makes the polytropic Greek so internationally indestructible. A great delight to read, the book is lucid, appealingly written, fast, funny, and full of enlightening details.

  • Télémachus, Pressé Par Mentor, Quitte L'île De Calypso
    Charles Meynier (Paris 1768 - Paris 1832) Télémachus, pressé par Mentor, quitte l’île de Calypso Circa: 1800 1800 154 x 203 cm Télémachus, pressé par Mentor, quitte l’île de Calypso, is the masterpiece of Meynier’s career. For two centuries thought lost, the painting, until now, has only been known through an engraving. The painting was received with great praise from both the public and critics alike when it was first presented at the Salon of 1800 and can be considered not only the artist’s chef-de-oeuvre but also a key painting within the canon of French Neoclassicism - representing a sublime example of the very particular aesthetic of turn of the century Napoleonic France. A pupil of François-André Vincent, Meynier shared the prestigious Prix de Rome with Girodet in 1789, staying in Italy until December 1793. Returning to Paris, under the Empire, he received orders for military paintings to the glory of the Emperor and made three ceilings for the Louvre Museum, still in place. Telemachus represents a key moment in French neo-classical painting in which the propagandist subject matter of the last decade - often glorifying military prowess and which had been strictly adhered to - were relaxed, allowing artists such as Meynier to explore new themes such as History Painting. Meynier’s subject of Telemachus, the Son of Odysseus, is taken from Greek Mythology as re-told by Francois Fenelon in his acclaimed contemporary novel published in 1699, The Adventures of Telemachus. Fenelon’s reworking of Homeric legend was recognized by contemporaries as a scathing rebuke to the autocratic reign of Louis and an allusion to the virtuous ideals espoused by the revolutionary Directoire.

  • Satish Padiyar, Last Words: David's Mars Disarmed by Venus and The
    RIHA Journal 0023 | 01 June 2011 Last Words: David's Mars Disarmed by Venus and the Graces (1824). Subjectivity, Death, and Postrevolutionary Late Style Satish Padiyar Peer-review and editing organized by: The Courtauld Institute of Art, London Reviewers: Sarah Betzer, Susan Siegfried Abstract Completed as he was approaching death in 1825, Jacques-Louis David's final refractory history painting is an intricate summation of a life in politics and painting. The article attempts to re-interpret the canvas in relation to the dual problem of 'late style' and the condition of exile. I argue that this history painting invokes the metaphor of non-sex for the condition of exile; and as a late gesture stages an anomalous return to a pre- lapsarian eighteenth century. The painting, I conclude, reveals less the transcendent subjectivity of an artist approaching biological death, than the critical disarming of a once-radical neoclassical aesthetic itself, in its tragic late phase. Contents Farewell to Painting A Schizophrenic Subject in Exile Painting on the Far Shore (back to the Rococo) The Metaphor of Non-Sex in Exile Activating the Graces Two Crowns Conclusion The force of subjectivity in late works is the irascible gesture with which it leaves them. It bursts them asunder, not in order to express itself but, expressionlessly, to cast off the illusion of art. Of the works it leaves only fragments behind, communicating itself, as if in ciphers, only through the spaces it has violently vacated. Adorno, "Late Style in Beethoven" Farewell to Painting [1] If it is true that the nearer one comes to death the more vividly distant memories are stirred up, then David's last public history painting, Mars Disarmed by Venus and the Graces, completed in Brussels some twenty months before his death in December 1825, should constitute a veritable Proustian archive (fig.
