| 1160 | Kathryn St. Ours "La Symphonie pastorale pour des étudiants moyennement avancés" |
Cet article propose d'étudier La Symphonie pastorale du point de vue de l'ironie. Ainsi, il présente diverses activités de prélecture, de lecture en cours et de postlecture déstinees a faire comprendre par nos étudiants moyennement avancés toute la portée de l'ironie dans ce récit. Il s'agit trè précisément d'examiner l'ambiguïté du supposé journal du pasteur, les aspects douteux de l'éducation de Gertrude et le statut d'ironisants de Jacques et d'Amélie. |
| 1172 | Edward C. Knox "The New York Times Looks at France" |
Tendentious article titles, unflattering references to an unchanging France, and an unbalanced selection of letters to the editor combine with aspects of style (puns, the use of French, a polysemous "Gallic") to form a rhetoric by which the Times keeps France in its place, even as it acknowledges France's successes in the international business arena. Form thus subtends a set of standard themes about France (arrogance, snobbishness, petulance, inconsistency, contrarian behavior, etc.) to filter and color information, creating and maintaining a reductive and condescending picture of France and the French, even in the "nation's best newspaper." |
| 1181 | S. Pascale Dewey "Le 'Changement' du siàcle: l'euro" |
Janvier 2002 a marqué le basculement à l'euro. Utopie d'hier, réalité d'aujourd'hui, l'euro commande désormais l'avenir de plus de trois cent millions d'Européens. Cet article degagéra les implications de son avènement, analysera l'action du gouvernement français et abordera quelques questions pratiques pour sa fabrication, sa distribution et surtout sa protection. Le passage à la monnaie unique requiert le soutien de tout citoyen européen qui l'utilise. Or, toute monnaie n'est forte que par la confiance placée en elle. L'euro doit donc mériter la confiance du consommateur, laquelle se fonde sur la compréhension qui est également le but de la présente étude. |

| 1194 | Brigitte E. Humbert "La Religieuse de Diderot et la marquise de Laclos" |
Cet article propose une façon d'aborder la rhétorique propre á la littérature épistolaire du dix-huitième siécle, a travers les personnages centraux de deux romans situés aux antipodes du genre: le monologue-La Religieuse de Diderot-et le "polylogue"-Les Liaisons dangereuses de Laclos. Pour mettre en relief la fonction de la rhétorique épistolaire, on présentera également une brève comparaison avec une adaptation filmique de chaque œuvre. Ces quelques pages offrent à l'enseignant/e intéressé/e des jalons qui lui permettront d'entamer ou d'étayer l'étude de ces deux romans en particulier, et de la fonction rhétorique de l'épistolarite et du récit en général. |
| 1213 | Laurence M. Porter "The Present State of Nineteenth-Century French Studies" |
Distance determines how closely each critic connects nineteenth-century French literature to his or her own reality. In France and the United Kingdom, critics polarize, emphasizing either the Real or the Symbolic. Historiography, biography, and realistic fiction attract critics who wish to preserve their immediate heritage. But because literature and the arts have unquestioned intrinsic value in France, "pure theory" based on a classical and philosophical education also flourishes there. In the United States, criticism must justify itself and literature by connecting literature to social issues. And in Australia, criticism can playfully explore the Imaginary in symbolist poetry and fantasy. In conclusion, a long annotated list signals outstanding books from 1990 through mid-2000. |
| 1235 | Michael O'Riley "Translation and Imperialism in Assia Djebar's Les Nuits de Strasbourg" |
Assia Djebar's recent novel draws on her previous texts' engagements with the intersection of postcolonial hybridity and historical inscription while underscoring the uses and vicissitudes of translation as a paradigm for multicultural relations. Examining the text's focus on translation as a metaphor for cultural transformation, this essay examines how the fusion of translation frequently interweaves the genealogies of imperialist histories, celebrating the hybrid while overlooking the resistance of imperialist strains. The novel's attention to the historical within translation redresses a reliance on translation as a figure for cultural hybridity while urging a pragmatic language for multicultural relations of the New Europe. |
