Demythologizing de Gaulle: History as Myth and Myth as Hermeneutic in France after Vichy and Algerian Independence 戴高乐的去神话化:维希和阿尔及利亚独立后法国作为神话的历史和作为解释学的神话

History, like fiction, is a narrative interpretation of events, and its writing or telling of the past is always mediated from a present position. The narratological turn in historical discourse from the 1960s challenged the assumption that accounts of the past were the objective accumulation of documented facts and emphasized the ideological mediation of historiography. With a focus on Roland Barthes’s poststructuralist theory of myth as a hermeneutic structure for historical interpretation, this article argues that demythologization is less an elimination of ideological structures than an illumination; a counter- or re-mythologization that perpetuates interpretative work. As a demythologizing critique of Charles de Gaulle’s myth of post-Occupation resistancialism, Michel Déon’s Les Poneys sauvages (1970/2010) undermines the myth of a unanimous and united France and opens up spaces of ambiguity and subjectivity that reveal interpretative conflicts over the historical narratives of the Second World War and the Algerian War of Independence.
历史,就像小说一样,是对事件的一种叙事解释,它对过去的书写或讲述总是以现在为媒介。从20世纪60年代开始,历史话语的叙事学转向挑战了对过去的叙述是文献事实的客观积累的假设,并强调了史学的意识形态调解。本文以罗兰·巴特的后结构主义神话理论作为历史解释的解释学结构为重点,认为去神话化与其说是对意识形态结构的消除,不如说是一种启示;使解释性作品永久化的反神话或再神话。作为对戴高乐占领后抵抗主义神话的去神话化批判,米歇尔·达姆松的《野蛮人》(1970/2010)破坏了一个一致统一的法国神话,打开了模糊和主观性的空间,揭示了对第二次世界大战和阿尔及利亚独立战争的历史叙述的解释冲突。

Auteur prolixe et maître imitateur, Catulle Mendès peut être considéré comme l’archétype du créateur décadent qui pallie un manque d’originalité par la virtuosité, le gigantisme et le maniérisme spectaculaires (Vladimir Jankélévitch). C’est en ce sens que convergent les critiques de l’époque, qu’elles soient favorables ou défavorables. Notre article étudie cette rhétorique du monstre littéraire et de l’écrivain monstrueux qui se trouve également déployée dans l’œuvre romanesque de Mendès, à travers les figures d’artiste impuissant et de créateur à succès. Si la tératogonie mendésienne révèle les faiblesses et les facilités de l’écrivain en mal d’inspiration, elle signale également une réflexion d’une grande sagacité sur l’essence, le pouvoir et les finalités de la création artistique.
作为一个多产的作家和模仿者,卡图尔·门德斯可以被认为是颓废的创造者的原型,他通过精湛的技艺、巨大的规模和壮观的矫饰来弥补独创性的缺乏(弗拉基米尔·扬克里维奇)。这就是当时的批评,无论是赞成的还是反对的,都集中在这个方向上。我们的文章通过无能的艺术家和成功的创造者的形象来研究这种文学怪物和怪物作家的修辞,这种修辞也出现在mendes的小说中。如果孟德斯都的畸形学揭示了缺乏灵感的作者的弱点和弱点,它也表明了对艺术创作的本质、力量和目的的深刻反思。

English Fiction in France: A Cross-Channel Dialogue at the Turn of the Twenty-First Century 英国小说在法国:21世纪之交的跨海峡对话

After a period of postmodern innovation, readers as well as some writers in France have developed a taste for English fiction, preferably for texts that invite immersive reading. In contrast to earlier cross-Channel studies with their emphasis on French influence on English literature, an enquiry into current Anglo-French literary relations might show the reverse being true. For a start, this article discusses creative responses to English works in three French novels: Sylvia Tabet represents the Franco-British literary dialogue as an encounter with a variety of Victorian and post-Victorian voices; Julie Wolkenstein stages it as a negotiation between a novel by Henry James and her own fiction; and Jacqueline Harpman replies to Virginia Woolf’s Orlando with an updated version of the myth of the androgyne. Like the English pre-texts, the French offshoots encourage identificatory reading, yet by their mise en abyme techniques they also provoke critical reflection.
经过一段时间的后现代创新,法国的读者和一些作家都对英国小说产生了兴趣,尤其是那些能让人身临其境地阅读的小说。早期的跨海峡研究强调法国对英国文学的影响,而对当前英法文学关系的研究可能会显示出相反的情况。首先,本文讨论了三部法国小说对英语作品的创造性回应:西尔维娅·塔贝特代表了法英文学对话与各种维多利亚时代和后维多利亚时代声音的相遇;朱莉·沃尔肯斯坦将其描述为亨利·詹姆斯的小说和她自己的小说之间的谈判;杰奎琳·哈曼对弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫的《奥兰多》的回应是对雌雄同体神话的更新版本。就像英语的前言一样,法语的分支鼓励认同阅读,然而,通过他们的隐含技巧,他们也引发了批判性的反思。

Marivaux empiriste: la fiction comme expérience de pensée 经验主义者马里沃:小说作为思想实验

L’émergence de l’empirisme de John Locke à la fin du dix-septième siècle semble annoncer une nouvelle manière, fondée sur l’expérience, de concevoir l’homme et ses connaissances. Une manière qui trouve sa concrétisation dans la fiction marivaudien au début du dix-huitième siècle. En renonçant à la déduction et à l’abstraction, Marivaux conçoit la fiction comme un lieu propice pour l’expression des expériences subjectives dans un contexte plus concret et plus proche du lecteur de l’époque, de sorte que ses écrits deviennent l’illustration de l’identité personnelle et de la théorie de la connaissance de John Locke. Une illustration qui semble faire de la fiction marivaudienne une « expérience de pensée ». Mais comment Marivaux conçoit-il cette expérience de pensée? Quel type de connaissance cette expérience fournit-elle? C’est à ces questions que cet article tente d’apporter des réponses en repérant les analogies entre la pensée de Locke et celle de Marivaux, en analysant la notion de l’identité personnelle et son illustration dans l’œuvre marivaudienne et en expliquant les mécanismes de l’expérience de pensée que propose la fiction marivaudienne et son impact sur le lecteur de l’époque.
约翰·洛克(John Locke)在17世纪末的经验主义的出现似乎预示着一种新的、基于经验的看待人及其知识的方式。这种方式在十八世纪初的马里沃小说中得到了具体化。通过放弃演绎和抽象,马里沃将小说视为在更具体的背景下表达主观体验的有利场所,更接近当时的读者,因此他的作品成为约翰·洛克个人身份和知识理论的例证。这幅插图似乎使马里沃小说成为一种“思想体验”。但马里沃是如何设想这种思想体验的?这种经验提供了什么样的知识?这篇文章试图通过发现洛克和马里沃思想之间的类比,分析个人身份的概念及其在马里沃作品中的说明,并解释马里沃小说提出的思想体验机制及其对当时读者的影响,来回答这些问题。

‘Working Girl’: Sex Work and Intersubjectivity in Georges Bataille's Madame Edwarda “工作女孩”:乔治·巴塔耶的《爱德华夫人》中的性工作和主体间性
IF 0.1 4区 文学 Q3 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-03-01 DOI: 10.3366/nfs.2022.0340
J. Hornsby
This article examines the role of sex work in Georges Bataille’s account of intersubjectivity through transgression and the erotic. It conducts a close reading of Madame Edwarda, a short text in which a sex worker takes centre stage. This text is cited as exemplary of Bataille’s rejection of the limits of reason, limits imposed by a socio-economic model wherein everything must be exchanged, invested, and subordinated to logics of profit and accumulation. The aim of this article is to show that the model of transgression that Bataille sets out in Madame Edwarda in fact depends on another person’s labour. However, it is able to disavow this dependency because it assumes the labour in question – sex work – to be a free act of generosity: Edwarda’s sex work disappears as work, because she is identified with sex absolutely. The article argues that Bataille’s intersubjectivity is thus founded on work, and so on subjection.
本文考察了性工作在乔治·巴塔耶通过越轨和情色描述主体间性中的作用。它对爱德华夫人进行了细读,这是一部性工作者占据中心舞台的短篇小说。这篇文章被引用为巴塔耶拒绝理性极限的典范,理性极限是由社会经济模式强加的,在这种模式中,一切都必须交换、投资,并服从利润和积累的逻辑。本文的目的是表明,巴塔耶在《爱德华夫人》中提出的越轨模式实际上取决于另一个人的劳动。然而,它能够否认这种依赖性,因为它假设了有问题的劳动力 – 性工作 – 是一种自由的慷慨行为:爱德华的性工作就像工作一样消失了,因为她绝对认同性。文章认为,巴塔耶的主体间性是建立在工作之上的,主体性也是如此。

This article would like to show the rhetorical ambivalence of Émile Zola's Lourdes, in which the naturalist method (seeing, showing) is the one used by the young Sophie Couteau to convince her audience of the miracle of which she is the lucky one. It is precisely the paradox of this novel to denounce the religious imposture and the commercialization of the miracle, while underlining the similarity of the methods employed by the religious discourse, the medical discourse and by the naturalist novel.

Émile Zola and the Literary Language of Climate Change 埃米尔·左拉与气候变化的文学语言
IF 0.1 4区 文学 Q3 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2021-12-01 DOI: 10.3366/nfs.2021.0331
Johannes Ungelenk
On 7 February 1861, John Tyndall, professor of natural philosophy, delivered a historical lecture: he could prove that different gases absorb heat to a very different degree, which implies that the temperate conditions provided for by the Earth's atmosphere are dependent on its particular composition of gases. The theoretical foundation of climate science was laid. Ten years later, on the other side of the Channel, a young and ambitious author was working on a comprehensive literary analysis of the French era under the Second Empire. Émile Zola had probably not heard or read of Tyndall's discovery. However, the article makes the case for reading Zola's Rougon-Macquart as an extensive story of climate change. Zola's literary attempts to capture the defining characteristic of the Second Empire led him to the insight that its various milieus were all part of the same ‘climate’: that of an all-encompassing warming. Zola suggests that this climate is man-made: the economic success of the Second Empire is based on heating, in a literal and metaphorical sense, as well as on stoking the steam-engines and creating the hypertrophic atmosphere of the hothouse that enhances life and maximises turnover and profit. In contrast to Tyndall and his audience, Zola sensed the catastrophic consequences of this warming: the Second Empire was inevitably moving towards a final débâcle, i.e. it was doomed to perish in local and ‘global’ climate catastrophes. The article foregrounds the supplementary status of Tyndall's physical and Zola's literary knowledge. As Zola's striking intuition demonstrates, literature appears to have a privileged approach to the phenomenon of man-induced climate change.
1861年2月7日,自然哲学教授约翰·廷德尔发表了一篇历史演讲:他可以证明不同的气体吸收热量的程度非常不同,这意味着地球大气层提供的温和条件取决于其特定的气体成分。奠定了气候科学的理论基础。十年后,在英吉利海峡的另一边,一位年轻而雄心勃勃的作家正在对第二帝国统治下的法国时代进行全面的文学分析。埃米尔·左拉可能没有听说或读过廷德尔的发现。然而,这篇文章提出了将左拉的《鲁贡·麦克夸特》解读为一个关于气候变化的广泛故事的理由。左拉试图捕捉第二帝国的决定性特征,这让他明白,第二帝国不同的环境都是同一个“气候”的一部分:一个包罗万象的变暖。左拉认为这种气候是人为的:第二帝国的经济成功是基于供暖,无论是字面意义上还是隐喻意义上,都是基于给蒸汽机加燃料,创造温室的肥大氛围,从而改善生活,最大限度地提高营业额和利润。与廷德尔和他的观众形成鲜明对比的是,左拉感受到了这种变暖的灾难性后果:第二帝国不可避免地走向了最后的崩溃,即它注定要在局部和“全球”气候灾难中灭亡。文章着重论述了廷德尔身体知识与左拉文学知识的补充地位。正如左拉惊人的直觉所表明的那样,文学似乎对人类引发的气候变化现象有着特殊的处理方式。

La Critique et le dépassement de la « méthode expérimentale » dans Thérèse Raquin therese Raquin对“实验方法”的批判与超越

Hélène Sicard-Cowan
This article makes the case for reading Zola’s protagonists Laurent and Thérèse as literary foils for one of the founding fathers of the experimental method, namely the physiologist Claude Bernard, and his wife, Fanny Martin. Drawing more particularly on elements from Bernard’s and Martin’s lives, as well as Bernard’s scientific writings, the article shows that Zola ‘performs’ two grueling experiments in the aforementioned novel: the first one, initiated by the author himself, results in the death of three protagonists and the paralysis of the fourth one; the second experiment, initiated by Laurent, reveals that the latter’s evaluation of Thérèse and his ensuing hypothesis are seriously flawed. In fact, Laurent’s gaze is marred by his tendency to ‘dirty’ nature (‘salir la nature,’ to borrow Zola’s expression), and his experiment doesn’t turn out the way he had originally planned, as both lovers turned murderers end up committing suicide together. This article thus argues that, in Thérèse Raquin, Zola resorts to critical posturing as a vivisector in a text that can be read as a revenge narrative which gestures towards the possibility for vivisectors to be ‘redeemed’ as individuals made fully capable of feeling compassion for their objects through angelic intervention.
本文将左拉笔下的主人公洛朗和泰瑞兹解读为实验方法的创始人之一,生理学家克劳德·伯纳德和他的妻子范妮·马丁的文学陪衬。文章特别借鉴了伯纳德和马丁的生活元素,以及伯纳德的科学著作,表明左拉在上述小说中“进行”了两次艰苦的实验:第一次由作者自己发起,导致三位主角死亡,第四位主角瘫痪;由Laurent发起的第二个实验表明,后者对Thérèse的评价和随后的假设存在严重缺陷。事实上,劳伦特的凝视被他“肮脏”自然的倾向所破坏(借用左拉的说法,“肮脏的自然”),他的实验并没有按照他最初的计划进行,因为两个恋人变成了杀人犯,最终一起自杀。因此,这篇文章认为,在《Thérèse Raquin》中,左拉在一篇可以被解读为复仇叙事的文本中,将批判姿态作为活体解剖,表明活体解剖有可能被“救赎”,因为个体完全有能力通过天使的干预对自己的物体感到同情。

La Curée is a novel about financial excesses and sexual appetites. A problem arises for Zola: how to describe sexual acts and avoid censorship? Zola's strategy is to portray sexuality in a slightly indirect way. He uses a scientific gaze as an alibi to describe human sexuality. This article demonstrates how Zola combines references to botany and fairground anatomy for this purpose. Botany allows Zola to write about sexuality in a way that is both explicit and indirect. In addition, the naturalistic method of observation offers a ‘neutral’ scientific perspective of sexuality. Finally, references to anatomical Venuses allow the pseudo-pedagogical observation of the naked female body. Therefore, an indecent, voyeuristic gaze reveals itself behind science as alibi, behind the naturalist gaze.
《Curée》是一部关于经济过度和性欲的小说。左拉遇到了一个问题:如何描述性行为并避免审查?左拉的策略是用一种稍微间接的方式来描绘性。他用科学的凝视作为描述人类性行为的不在场证明。这篇文章展示了左拉如何结合植物学和游乐场解剖学来达到这个目的。《植物学》允许左拉以一种既明确又间接的方式来写性。此外,自然主义的观察方法为性提供了一个“中立”的科学视角。最后,参考解剖Venuses允许对裸体女性身体进行伪教学观察。因此,一种不雅的、偷窥的凝视在科学背后作为不在场证明,在自然主义凝视背后显现出来。
