Abstract:As was evident in "Berthe Morisot, Woman Impressionist," an international touring exhibition of the artist's work in 2018-2019, Morisot's painting often captures ways in which the libidinal and affective politics of vision shape the objectified construction of the viewed female subject, and it subtly examines how those politics can be negotiated and challenged. Her portraits of bourgeois Parisian women and figure painting in the late 1860s and 1870s are especially compelling in their interrogation of painting feminine objectification and are a crucial part of Morisot's contribution to the culture of Modernity. I offer a new interpretive framework for identifying a relationship among four well-known paintings of women in domestic spaces that all play with the concept of objectification to engage viewers in the work of essentialist deconstruction. I argue that these paintings build on two innovative and ultimately interrelated forms of defamiliarization to subvert typical viewing practices that essentialize the emotionalized minds and sexualized bodies of women.

Abstract:Cameroonian scientist, literary critic, and writer, Brigitte Tsobgny, has had a parcours like few other authors. Having published seven literary works, Tsobgny is now concentrating on establishing herself in the world of criticism without ruling out a return to creative writing. In this interview, Tsobgny speaks a bit about what has inspired and motivated her throughout her career and how her rich hybrid culture is represented in her oeuvre.

Abstract:Cet article analyse en quoi la mélancolie qui caractérise le film L'Homme atlantique (1981) de Marguerite Duras représente une force libératrice et créatrice pour la voix-off féminine, celle de la cinéaste. Au lieu d'évoquer une condition stagnante qui provient de l'intolérance à la perte de l'objet aimé, la mélancolie engendre de l'activité dans ce film : elle n'est pas un état psychique enraciné dans l'isolation mais sert plutôt à brouiller les frontières entre l'art et la vie afin d'impliquer le spectateur dans la trame du film. Celui-ci est à la fois acteurspectateur, suivant les didascalies de la voix-off et imaginant son propre film en même temps. La mélancolie est un spectacle collectif par excellence dans ce film, elle est l'expression du soi comme ouverture vers l'Autre. Le sublime étant un effet de la mélancolie, il joue aussi un rôle important dans L'Homme atlantique et s'illustre dans la présentation syncopée de l'intrigue ainsi que dans le plan noir, cette représentation de l'absolu qui renvoie au sentiment océanique. Il n'est donc pas question, dans cette étude, de considérer ce film comme représentatif de la destruction du cinéma, mais plutôt comme lieu de la création incessante du possible, mené par la mélancolie et le sublime.
