WINNETT THE EXPRESSED AND THE INEXPRESSIBLE IN THE THEATRE OF JEAN-JACQUES BERNARD AND HENRY-RENE LENORMAND BETWEEN 1919 AND 1945 Abstract Ph.D. 1996 This study is concerned with the ways the Inter-War theatre of Jean-Jacques Bernard and Henry-Rene Lenormand illustrates the paradox of the relative impotence of words as instruments of communication on the one hand as compared with their potency in other respects. The first two chapters are devoted to Bernard's exploitation and demonstration of the inadequacy of words as vehicles of meaning, the complex and correspondingly confusing nature of dialogue and miscellaneous factors which generally aggravate the communication process. Chapter 4 is given over to an examination of the most important failing of verbal symbols as illustrated in Lenormand's metaphysically oriented drama, and Chapter 5 treats of the other ways in which Lenormand's theatre complements Bernard's by highlighting the fundamental inefficiency of words as communication tools and certain factors which further undermine dialogue and personal relations. Chapters 3 and 6 review how the plays of Bernard and Lenormand also bring into relief the extraordinary and sometimes dangerous effectiveness words can have, notably as provocative triggers and psychological catalysts. A substantial Introduction puts Chapters 1-6 into a historical perspective, explains the choice of playwrights, discusses the way their work has been critically evaluated, classified and analysed in the past and accounts for this study's particular approach to their drama between 1919 and 1945. - Ill - CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION 1 1.

THE «I» AND THE AUTHOR IN MODERN FRENCH AUTOBIOGRAPHY MARGUERITE DURAS AND ANNIE ERNAUX. 1616: Anuario de Literatura Comparada, 3 (2013), 259-270 RESUMEN: La emergencia de lo individual ha dominado durante algún tiempo la esfera pública francesa. Esto es especialmente notable cuando se trata de la escritura autobiográfica. Las obras de Marguerite Duras y Annie Ernaux se centran en el individuo y la relación entre el «yo» y la figura del autor en términos generales, y nos proporcionan diversas claves sobre la importancia de la escritura autobiográfica en relación con sus vidas y personalidades. En el análisis de lo individual en su obra son especialmente relevantes los múltiples estratos de autoconsciencia. Palabras clave: Marguerite Duras, Annie Ernaux, Autobiografía Francesa, Lo Individual, Autoconsciencia. © Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca 1616: Anuario de Literatura Comparada, 3, 2013, pp. 259-270 260 NETTA NAKARI THE «I» AND THE AUTHOR IN MODERN FRENCH ABSTRACT: The emergence of the individual has for some time now domi- nated the public field in France. This is especially visible when it comes to autobiographical writing. Marguerite Duras’s and Annie Ernaux’s works address the focus on the individual and the relationship between the «I» and the author in general, and also hold various clues to the importance of autobiographical writing to their lives and personalities.

Comédie-Française ROMÉO ET JULIETTE UNE PIÈCE FANTÔME DU RÉPERTOIRE par Agathe Sanjuan, conservatrice-archiviste de la Comédie-Française, octobre 2015 Roméo et Juliette William Shakespeare version scénique d’après la traduction de François-Victor Hugo mise en scène Éric Ruf 5 décembre 2015 > 30 mai 2016 Ce document vous propose un parcours Roméo et Juliette, une pièce fantôme du répertoire dans les collections iconographiques de la Comédie-Française présentées au sein de la base La Grange, accessible en ligne à l’adresse suivante : http://www.comedie-francaise. fr/la-grange-recherche-simple.php?id=550 Dominique Cailleau - Réalisation / n°3-1039156 / n°2-1039174 - Licences n°1-1040430 © Comédie-Française Longtemps perçue comme étant en contradiction avec la tradition théâtrale française, la dramaturgie de Shakespeare, comme l’ensemble du répertoire étranger, nous parvient par le filtre de ses adaptations et traductions. Les auteurs qui l’adaptent tentent de concilier la richesse de la fable avec les codes du supportable pour un public qui, depuis Voltaire, oscille entre fascination et répulsion à son égard. Le cas de Roméo et Juliette à la Comédie-Française est à ce titre particulièrement édifiant ; si la pièce y est très peu jouée et n’a jamais été reprise depuis 1954, les archives du comité de lecture montrent qu’elle fut très souvent proposée par des auteurs-adaptateurs désireux de s’emparer du mythe.

  • La Comédie-Française 1941
    Jean Knauf LLaa CCoommééddiiee--FFrraannççaaiissee 11994411 Programme de Feu la Mère de Madame de Georges Feydeau, mise en scène de Fernand Ledoux, 27 octobre 1941 - © Comédie-Française 1 2 Avant-propos Jacques Copeau, agréé par le gouvernement de Vichy, est révoqué par les autorités allemandes. Il quitte l’administration du théâtre le 7 janvier 1941. Marie-Agnès Joubert conclut assez justement : « L’administration de Jacques Copeau ne fut finalement qu’une parenthèse, aussi bien dans l’histoire du Théâtre-Français que dans la carrière de l’intéressé. Les ouvrages consacrés à Copeau demeurent d’ailleurs étrangement discrets sur cet épisode de sa vie. En janvier 1941, acteurs et témoins de cette aventure sans lendemain souhaitèrent tourner la page au plus vite. Jacques Copeau reprit le chemin de Pernand-Vergelesses … »1 Léon Lamblin, sous-secrétaire d’Etat aux Beaux-Arts, le remplace entre le 13 janvier et le 2 mars 1941. Directeur du Musée Carnavalet et responsable des matinées poétiques, Jean- Louis Vaudoyer est nommé administrateur à compter du 4 mars 1941. Grand ami d’Edouard Bourdet, Vaudoyer n’est ni un auteur de théâtre, ni un artisan de la scène, c’est un homme de grande culture, amateur d’art et de poésie. Il prend la direction de la maison à un des pires moments de son histoire. La troupe a perdu Yonnel – qui rentrera en octobre après que le Commissariat aux questions juives eût déclaré qu’il ne pouvait être considéré comme juif, Béatrice Bretty dont Jérôme Carcopino 2 exige la mise à la retraite, Véra Korène, Robert Manuel, Henri Echourin, Henri-Paul Bonifas doivent quitter la Société en application des lois de Vichy… La Société se trouve ainsi privée d’éléments importants dans la tragédie comme dans la comédie.

  • Pratiques Durassiennes Sous Pastiche Oulipien
    Pratiques durassiennes sous pastiche oulipien Joël JULY CIELAM, EA 4235 Université d'Aix Marseille (AMU) Résumé : A partir d'un court texte de l'auteur oulipien Hervé Le Tellier, et en confrontant son travail à d'autres imitations moins réussies du style durassien, nous tenterons de dégager ce qui relève de la parodie (thème du regard et notamment du regard biaisé, mention ironique) et ce qui relève du pastiche (temps verbaux, pronoms, parataxe). L'habileté de cette contrefaçon repose surtout sur le point de vue paradoxal, cher à Duras, à travers lequel dans une syntaxe limpide l'évidence devient mystère. Examiner comment tel ou tel pasticheur imite tel modèle permet de poser (seule façon d’un jour les résoudre) tous les problèmes de la description d’un style singulier – en particulier, question épineuse, la définition du « stylème ». Il n’y a de texte que lu et si le pastiche n’est jamais qu’une lecture écrite, alors il est particulièrement prometteur d’aborder la question dite du « style individuel » à travers une comparaison la plus serrée possible des divers pastiches auxquels l’œuvre a donné lieu ( Daniel BILOUS, « Sur la mimécriture. Essai de typologie », in Du pastiche, de la parodie et de quelques notions connexes, Editions Nota bene, 2004, p. 130). Hervé Le Tellier, né en 1957, a été coopté à l'OuLiPo en 1992 et a écrit une thèse sur ce mouvement en 20021. C'est dire si sa production abondante et variée [peux-tu rappeler brièvement rappeler en quoi sa production consiste, nombre de livres et genres ?] reste pétrie de considérations techniques.
