This article analyses selected writings in French by Lydia Flem and Philippe Forest, with a focus on the intertextual presence of literary figures from well-known sources, identifications with figures from imaginary worlds and their relationship to the writing project. These authors’ curiosity about the place of storytelling in understanding selves and lives extends to the question of how literature connects with experiences that otherwise remain inaccessible or elude conscious awareness. The formal and thematic functions of Lewis Carroll’s Alice and J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan are examined in Flem’s Comment je me suis séparée de ma fille et de mon quasi-fils and Forest’s L’Enfant éternel. The article argues that via the perspectives of the (parental) narrators in both texts, these literary figures mobilize the creative expression of experiences of change and loss. The (re)turn to literature takes place not because it saves, or consoles, these writers insist; rather, they describe the compelling and paradoxically sustaining functions of reading and writing even as they precisely fail to offer up any certain resolution. Literature’s capacity to enliven curiosity about human experience means that writing is life; literary figures live with and in them. In a similar spirit to Deborah Levy’s description of ‘living autobiography’, the article argues that Flem and Forest attest to the need and desire to write in an ‘engaged’ way, characteristic of a writing practice that encompasses concrete and imaginary worlds, reality and fantasy. From explorations of transition and loss, Flem’s ‘bébé de papier’ and Forest’s ‘être de papier’ emerge.
本文分析了莉迪亚·弗勒姆和菲利普·福里斯特的法语作品,重点关注知名文学人物的互文存在,与虚构世界人物的认同及其与写作项目的关系。这些作者对讲故事在理解自我和生活中的地位的好奇,延伸到了文学如何与那些无法接触或逃避意识意识的经历联系起来的问题。弗莱姆的《评论我是ssamparsame de ma fille et de mon准fils》和福里斯特的《少年》(L’enfant)对刘易斯·卡罗尔的《爱丽丝》和j·m·巴里的《彼得潘》的形式和主题功能进行了考察。本文认为,通过两个文本中(父母)叙述者的视角,这些文学人物调动了对变化和失落经历的创造性表达。这些作家坚持认为,(重新)转向文学并不是因为它能拯救或安慰人;相反,它们描述了阅读和写作的引人注目和自相矛盾的维持功能,尽管它们恰恰未能提供任何确定的解决方案。文学能够激发人们对人类经历的好奇心,这意味着写作就是生活;文学人物与他们生活在一起。与黛博拉·利维对“活生生的自传”的描述类似,这篇文章认为,弗莱姆和福里斯特证明了以一种“参与”的方式写作的需要和愿望,这是一种包含具体和想象世界、现实和幻想的写作实践的特征。从对过渡和失落的探索中,Flem的“b de papier”和Forest的“être de papier”出现了。

Divorce was legalized in France during the French Revolution and remained legal (though more restricted) during the Napoleonic period. With the return of the Bourbons in 1815, however, it was almost immediately outlawed. The Revolution of 1830 and the ascension of the more progressive Louis-Philippe d’Orléans led to hopes that divorce would soon be reinstated, but they were quickly disappointed as the conservative Chamber of Peers squashed all attempts at restoring it. This article examines an 1835 novel, Aloïse Christine de Carlowitz’s Le Pair de France ou Le Divorce, which traces the debates about divorce in the years before and after 1830. The first section focuses on Carlowitz’s representation of these discussions and of various perspectives on the law and social reform. The second section considers how Carlowitz relates the divorce plot to the political changes in France between 1830 and 1834 through a series of parallels between historical events and the private drama of the protagonists.

The Cent Nouvelles nouvelles present challenges to student learners of French linguistically, culturally and in terms of the content of the stories. Investigations designed to interrogate how the stories might have been collected in the second half of the fifteenth century end up demonstrating how the storytelling environment shapes the stories that are told and the way that they are understood. The experience of storytelling online during a period of pandemic learning is very different from the same experience in a pre- or post-pandemic classroom. Methodologies, such as critical pedagogy and inquiry stance pedagogy, which had limited resonance in the pre-pandemic environment, became much more central to the learner’s experience in the online, pandemic environment. This confirms the practices of ‘Flux pedagogy’, as advocated by Sharon M. Ravitch. Similarly, reactions to a story featuring the transmission of plague can be shaped by a framing that includes or excludes direct reference to the risk of infection experienced by the listeners.

Fernando Contreras Castro’s novel Única mirando al mar (1993 and 2010) is a bitter, scathing social critique of Costa Rica’s government, a government which only occasionally remembers its duty to its taxpayers and its environment. Rewritten in 2010 after the closure of Río Azul, a landfill near San José, the novel explores the way this action affected the population of the landfill, locally known as the buzos. Analyses of the novel address primarily the buzos’ resilience and the complexity of the relationship between the buzos’ society and the rest of the country. This study will consider the buzos’ society as a social order based on habit, and trace its adaptability and persistence in the face of multiple changes to the buzos’ life. To this end, I will use the theory of posthegemony with a particular focus on Pierre Bourdieu’s concepts of habit and habitus to explore the adaptability and persistence of the buzos’ habitus as reflected in habitual practices, rituals and ritual language. I will analyse the 2010 version of the novel, published after the closure of the landfill.
