La Politique du texte
Offert à Claude Duchet, ce livre dessine les territoires et les frontières d'une discipline fertile depuis de nombreuses années, la sociocritique, qui a la particularité d'être dissiminée dans de multiples recherches et domaines littéraires.L'ouvrage veut être fidèle à ce mouvement de démultiplication. Il explore successivement la constitution interne du champ sociocritique et les problèmes de voisinage avec d'autres démarches comme l'analyse institutionnelle ou l'étude thématique. Interrogeant la frontière entre textualité et socialité, il met en évidence les ressources internes et les ruptures potentielles d'une entreprise qui aborde l'existence sociale et historique des textes à travers leur puissance d'invention, donc leur aptitude à la séparation. Complété par une bibliographie systématique (Isabelle Tournier et Stéphane Vachon), l'ouvrage comprend les contributions de Ruth Amossy, Marc Angenot, Annie Becq, Georges Benrekassa, Jacques Dubois, Jacques Leenhardt, Henri Meschonnic, Robert Morissey, Jacques Neefs, Thomas Pavel, Régine Robin, Elisheva Rosen.

The Limits of Performance in the French Romantic Theatre
This volume analyzes major French plays of the 1830s, focusing on their theatricality, and on the ways in which they expose the workings of the theater rather than conceal them. Through an examination of performance within these plays, the study posits that the stage is a privileged site of demonstration, a literal "proving ground" that lends a physical reality to abstract values announced in the text and shared or questioned by the audience. Negotiating between the literary study of drama and performance theory, this work breaks new ground in nineteenth-century theater scholarship while proposing a fresh direction in the study of text and performance. The Limits of Performance challenges conventional wisdom, offering a novel take on the mal du siècle, that thematic hardy perennial of French Romanticism and the nineteenth century in general, combined with eminently readable and, therefore, compelling analysis of plays - a thought-provoking addition to work in the field (Glyn Hambrook, Modern and Contemporary France, November 2008).
Acoustemologies in Contact
In this fascinating collection of essays, an international group of scholars explores the sonic consequences of transcultural contact in the early modern period. They examine how cultural configurations of sound impacted communication, comprehension, and the categorisation of people. Addressing questions of identity, difference, sound, and subjectivity in global early modernity, these authors share the conviction that the body itself is the most intimate of contact zones, and that the culturally contingent systems by which sounds made sense could be foreign to early modern listeners and to present day scholars. Drawing on a global range of archival evidence—from New France and New Spain, t...
France on Display
Explores national identity in twentieth-century France.
La production de l'immatériel
Siècle du passage à l'économie libérale et à la société industrielles, le xixe siècle voit en France la création littéraire et artistique prendre tous les caractères d'une ± production - pensée avant même notre entrée, au xxie siècle, dans l'ère de l'immatérialité numérique, comme celle de "produits immatériels" ». Les belles-lettres et les beaux-arts doivent alors et sans retour s'adapter à un nouveau système de valeurs, viser un public de masse, trouver leur place dans le premier des médias modernes qu'est la presse périodique (journaux et revues). En même temps, l'État postrévolutionnaire invente et instaure la pratique spécifiquement française de la politiq...
Heinrich Schenker
Originally published in 1966, the Reeseschrift remains one of the most significant collections of musicological writings ever assembled. Its fifty-six essays, written by some of the greatest scholars of our time, range chronologically from antiquity to the 17thcentury and geographically from Byzantium to the British Isles. They deal with questions of history, style, form, texture, notation, and performance practice.
Baudelaire
In his poetry and critical writings, Baudelaire performs a vast fusion of experiential and literary sources, explores in a more resolute manner the domain of correspondences, and, thereby, marks a radical departure from the accepted norms. He challenges, humbles, and then reaffirms and recenters Western tradition. That is his finest achievement.
Jules Michelet
Jules Michelet, one of France’s most influential historians and a founder of modern historical practice, was a passionate viewer and relentless interpreter of the visual arts. In this book, Michèle Hannoosh examines the crucial role that art writing played in Michelet’s work and shows how it decisively influenced his theory of history and his view of the practice of the historian. The visual arts were at the very center of Michelet’s conception of historiography. He filled his private notes, public lectures, and printed books with discussions of artworks, which, for him, embodied the character of particular historical moments. Michelet believed that painting, sculpture, architecture, ...
