Common Scents
The sense of smell has long been the most neglected of the human senses in literature. Common Scents sets out to undo this forgetting of olfactory sense-making by tracing the appearance of odors in modern German and French poetry. Jonas Rosenbrück argues that smell's persistence undermines modernity's self-image as an ocular age and shows how scents index a veritable "revolution of the senses." Such a revolution, as a redistribution of the senses, would make the common and shared character of our existence in scented atmospheres perceptible. Bringing contemporary ecocritical interest in atmospheres, air, and the senses into dialogue with literary criticism, theories of modernity, and politi...
The Play of Light
Drawing from five contemporary French poets—Jacques Roubaud, Emmanuel Hocquard, Danielle Collobert, Anne Portugal, and Jacques Jouet—Ann Smock juxtaposes them and provides a milieu suitable for philosophical reflection on identity, on not-being and being, on communication, and on secrets. Smock also includes thinkers such as Ludwig Wittgenstein and Giorgio Agamben, who contribute to the conversation, as do Jean-Luc Nancy and Maurice Blanchot. Though the poems considered here are often thought difficult, Smock maintains a light touch throughout. She writes in an accessible, even pleasurable style while contributing to the scholarly study of literature at the border shared by poetry and philosophy

The French Genealogy of the Beat Generation
The Francophilia of the Beat circle in the New York of the mid-1940s is well known, as is the importance of the Beat Hotel in the Paris of the late 1950s and early 1960s, but how exactly did French literature and culture participate in the emergence of the Beat Generation? French modernism did much more than inspire its first major writers, it materially shaped their works, as this comparative study reveals through close textual analysis of William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac's appropriations of French literature and culture. Sometimes acknowledged, sometimes not, their appropriations take multiple forms, ranging from allusions, invocations and citations to adaptations and tra...
Revue des Sciences Humaines, n° 346/avril-juin 2022
Ce numéro porte sur les dialogues effectifs, par traductions ou réécritures, et sur les échos circonstanciels possibles entre les œuvres de poètes français et brésiliens des XXe et XXIe siècles ; l'ambition est aussi politique, d'accélérer la lecture de ces auteurs hors de leur pays natal via cet angle d’étude bifocal.
Pascal Quignard. La voix de la danse
Au mois de novembre 2010, Pascal Quignard et la danseuse de butô Carlotta Ikeda ont créé la pièce Medea, sur la scène du Théâtre Molière, à Bordeaux. Cette rencontre de la danse et de la littérature était-elle donc marquée du sceau de l'inéluctable ? Oui, parce que la danse est au cœur de l'œuvre de Pascal Quignard, depuis toujours, et elle éclaire indirectement le sens de ses collaborations multiples, avec des peintres, des musiciens, des comédiens. Affirmer la nécessité esthétique et logique de cet événement peut cependant surprendre car, dans le premier temps de l’œuvre, le corps et sa danse n’apparaissaient guère. Pourtant, quand je l’interrogeais à ce suje...
Aux frontières du langage, l'évènement
Comment un évènement qui fait basculer nos vies bouscule-t-il la langue ? C'est à cette question que l'ouvrage tente de répondre en la questionnant par le prisme de la littérature des XXe et XXIe siècles.
