Rethinking Africanity through the phenomenon of the “circulation of worlds” The term “circulation of worlds” was used by Achille Mbembe in her essay Sortir de la grande nuit (2013) to expose her Afropolitan thought. Evoking on the one hand the phenomenon of “dispersion”, that is to say the dissemination of Africans and Africa in the world illustrated in Un Océan, deux mers, trois continents (2018) by Wilfried N'Sondé, Tels des astres éteints (2008) and Crépuscule du tourment, I. Melancholy (2016) by Léonora Miano. And on the other hand the phenomenon of “immersion”, namely the migration of the world in Africa represented in Blues pour Élise (2010) by Léonora Miano, L’Africain (2004) by Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio, Mathématiques congolaises (2008) by In Koli Jean Bofane, Une Blanche dans le Noir (2001) by Jean-Roger Essomba and Ténèbres à midi (2010) by Theo Ananissoh ; among other things, he raises the limits of ancestral “African citizenship” based on the African = Black equation.
Achille Mbembe在她的文章Sortir de la grande nuit(2013)中使用了“世界循环”一词来揭示她的非洲人思想。一方面唤起了“分散”现象,即非洲人和非洲人在世界上的传播,如威尔弗里德·恩森德(Wilfried N’sond)的《三大洲》(2018)、《三大洲》(2008)和《忧郁》(2016)。另一方面,“浸入”现象,即世界在非洲的迁移,代表在蓝色pour Élise(2010年)由lsamonora Miano, L 'Africain(2004年)由Jean- marie Gustave Le clsamzio, mathacimmatiques congolaise(2008年)由in Koli Jean Bofane, Une Blanche dans Le Noir(2001年)由Jean- roger Essomba和tsamonres commidi(2010年)由Theo Ananissoh;除此之外,他还根据非洲人=黑人的等式提出了祖先“非洲公民身份”的限制。

Claude Vigée in the mirror of the Scripture(s) According to Paul Ricœur, « The text is the medium through which one understands oneself ». Claude Vigée (1921-2020), as a Jewish writer, tries to receive, embrace and perpetuate the identity conveyed by the Holy Scriptures into his own writing, while also relating it to his life. Asserting oneself as part of a vaster destiny or History; developing a better self-knowledge in the light of a shared relation to the world; finding one’s reflection in Biblical figures, but also relinquishing one’s Self for a better understanding of one’s belonging: these are the paths taken by Vigée for this identity quest which implies the pursuit of the father – or, rather, of the Biblical Fathers – in a fully assumed filiation.

Salacrou’s anguish. Reappropriation of some expressionist motifs in L’Archipel Lenoir and Histoire de rire by Armand Salacrou This paper aims to highlight the exploitation of some expressionist motifs in two plays by the French playwright Armand Salacrou (1899-1989), L’Archipel Lenoir and Histoire de rire throughout the painting of a metaphysical anxiety. In those pieces we can see realisation of such expressionist concepts as the war of brains (bataille des cerveaux), irradiation of the author’s I which conditions an antinaturalistic and caricatured expression of anxiety in an axiologically misstructured world. We can also appreciate elaboration of the expressionist motif of psychological murder which is an illustration of empoisoned relations between man and woman who do seek to destruct and moulder each other.
Salacrou的痛苦。本文旨在探讨法国剧作家阿尔芒·萨拉克鲁(1899-1989)的两部戏剧《勒努群岛》和《河的历史》对表现主义主题的运用,这两部戏剧贯穿着一种形而上学的焦虑。在这些作品中,我们可以看到表现主义概念的实现,如大脑的战争(bataille des cerveaux),作者的自我的辐射,在一个价值结构失调的世界中,这是一种反自然主义和讽刺的焦虑表达。我们也可以欣赏到表现主义主题心理谋杀的阐述这是一个男人和女人之间的病态关系的例证他们试图摧毁和塑造彼此。

The hope in the heart of despair in Carmen Boustani’s La guerre m’a surprise à Beyrouth [The war surprised me in Beirut] The purpose of this article is to analyze the topic of hope in Carmen Boustani’s La guerre m’a surprise à Beyrouth [The war surprised me in Beirut]. The narrative structure of Greimas shows that hope exists even in a catastrophic situation and pushes the characters to act. The ending is happy not only for the country but also for the various women who lived through the war. The narrator Yasmina and her friends show that hope can arise even in a destroyed space and that life is found even in the throes of death. The act of writing itself becomes a sign of hope which proves that from black, light is born.
卡门·布斯塔尼(Carmen Boustani)的《战争让我在贝鲁特感到惊讶》(La guerre m 'a surprise Beyrouth)中绝望之心的希望本文的目的是分析卡门·布斯塔尼(Carmen Boustani)的《战争让我在贝鲁特感到惊讶》(La guerre m 'a surprise Beyrouth)中的希望主题。格莱马斯的叙事结构表明,即使在灾难性的情况下也存在希望,并推动人物采取行动。结局不仅对这个国家来说是幸福的,而且对经历过战争的各种妇女来说也是幸福的。叙述者雅斯米娜和她的朋友们表明,即使在被摧毁的空间也能产生希望,即使在死亡的阵痛中也能找到生命。书写行为本身成为希望的标志,证明黑暗孕育光明。

The Mask at the CRICOT1 Theatre: From the Pictorial to the « Operative » Gesture The aim of this paper is to describe the beginnings, rather unknown, of the CRICOT theatre and to demonstrate the evolution which took place between the first show of CRICOT1 and the last piece performed in 1938. Focusing on the manners of treating the scenic object, the scenography, the costumes and the masks, the paper analyses the transformation of the amateur theatre: artistic, satirical, visual and comic into quasi-professional theatre, carrying an existential message. Message to be developed afterward by the world-famous collective, reformer of the European stages: Tadeusz Kantor’s CRICOT2.

Victoires of Wajdi Mouawad : when defenestration becomes a collective hope Victoire, a student at the National Conservatory of Dramatic Art, committed suicide when she was only twenty-four years old. This death, inspired by Greek tragedies, reveals a gesture that is both heroic and symptomatic of an era. In his play, Wajdi Mouawad questions the depth of the deadly gesture of suicide as well as fate of death. By analyzing the funeral rites evoked in the play, we will see how Victoire's friends engage in a process of idealizing death, making Victoire a modern heroine. The gesture of death transforms into that of a gesture of hope, leading them towards a surge of life itself.

The possibility of hope in Michel Houellebecq Often considered depressive, Michel Houellebecq’s writing seems to be at the antipodes of hope, even if fragile. In this article, we will attempt to explore the three levels of hope in the author’s work. Hope in Houellebecq’s writing is first presented in a derisory way as a variant of an illusion. It constitutes an evil associated with sexual desires in contemporary hyper-liberalist society. Then, the author stages a positivist utopia, that of immortal neo-humans. But hope does not exist in this post-human society. Finally, by freeing himself from all illusory hopes, the author intends to seek hope in the present, in the manner of Schopenhauerian contemplation. He uses an approach that is both clinical and pathetic and gives a new form to hope that hopes for the unhoped-for.
Michel Houellebecq的作品通常被认为是抑郁的,但他的作品似乎处于希望的对立面,即使是脆弱的。在本文中,我们将尝试探索作者作品中三个层次的希望。在Houellebecq的作品中,希望首先以一种嘲笑的方式呈现,作为一种幻觉的变体。在当代超自由主义社会中,它构成了与性欲有关的邪恶。然后,作者提出了一个实证主义的乌托邦,一个不朽的新人类的乌托邦。但是在这个后人类社会中不存在希望。最后,通过将自己从所有虚幻的希望中解放出来,作者打算以叔本华式的沉思方式在当下寻求希望。他采用了一种既客观又可悲的方法,为无望的人带来了一种新的希望。

A Poetic Palliative. The Épître au docteur Alfred G*** sur l’espérance, considérée dans l’exercice de la médecine (1811), by Jean-Marie Caillau (1765-1820) In 1811, the poetic academy of Toulouse awarded an epistle about hope in medical practice, by Jean-Marie Caillau, a now unknown physician who combined medicine and writing. This article provides contextualizing and close reading. It presents Caillau’s works and reputation, and highlights how he defined himself as a doctor-writer. Then it focuses on the didactic epistle, in which hope is regarded as a moral palliative, or a soothing and comforting illusion that the empathetic clinician prescribes to incurable, moribund and suffering people. The study of the text reveals the significant use of the peritext, the strong connection between medical discourse and poetical devices, and the praise of an eloquent physician at the patient’s bedside. By correlating hope and eloquence, Caillau embodies and promotes the dual figure of the doctorpoet. This article thus explores the fruitful and sometimes challenging interplay between medicine and poetry during the early 19th century.
