Littéraire, non littéraire: Enjeux traductologiques d’une problématique transdisciplinaire (Regards sur la traduction)
Par Christiane Nord, Marie-Alice Belle, Valérie Bouchard, Hélène Buzelin, Bruno Courbon, Fayza El Qasem, Nicolas Froeliger, Patricia Godbout, Andrée Mercier, Adrien Rannaud, Marie-Andrée Ricard. 2021
Cet ouvrage collectif aborde les aires de divergence et de convergence, les différences et les confluences entre le littéraire et…
le non littéraire dans la perspective d’une application à la traduction et à la traductologie. Cette réflexion épistémologique est alimentée non seulement par l’apport de traductologues, mais aussi par ceux de chercheurs issus des domaines extérieurs ou connexes à la traductologie et dont cette dernière se nourrit – en l’occurrence, le droit, la lexicologie, la théorie littéraire (narratologie et histoire littéraire) et la philosophie. Le pari de ce collectif est double : d’une part, il cherche à illustrer de manière concrète comment peut fonctionner et évoluer la traductologie en tant qu’interdiscipline, voire polydiscipline, par le simple fait de réunir dans un seul ouvrage des contributions complémentaires qui, prises ensemble ou séparément, peuvent inspirer de nouvelles avenues aux traductologues. D’autre part, il vise à mettre en évidence l’urgente nécessité de repenser la traductologie dans une perspective décloisonnée. Préfacé par Christiane Nord, traductologue incarnant aujourd’hui l’héritage de la traductologie fonctionnaliste allemande, cet ouvrage réunit traductologues et non-traductologues autour de la traductologie et des vastes enjeux qu’elle embrasse, ceux-ci étant souvent sous-estimés ou méconnus en-dehors de la sphère traductologique.Traductions et métraductions de Jane Austen: Effacement et survivance de la voix auctoriale (Regards sur la traduction)
Par Rosemarie Fournier-Guillemette. 2021
La réputation de l’autrice britannique Jane Austen, particulièrement dans le monde anglophone, n’est plus à faire : son œuvre est…
abondamment fréquentée par les lecteurs et lectrices, et l’on ne compte plus les adaptations et continuations – textuelles et transmédiatiques – de ses romans. En français seulement, ses ouvrages ont été l’objet de plus de 70 traductions en deux siècles d’existence.Comment son écriture, où abondent humour, ironie et discours indirect libre, a-t-elle été intégrée au corpus français ? Alors qu’Austen fait déjà l’objet de débats dans le monde anglo-saxon, quelle interprétation aura franchi la Manche et été proposée au lectorat francophone ? Ce transfert linguistique aura-t-il, pour l’autrice, donné lieu à une traduction ou à une métraduction ?Analyse littéraire combinant les disciplines de la traductologie, la narratologie et des études féministes, ce livre se penche, avec une approche diachronique, sur les traductions françaises de trois romans de Jane Austen : Northanger Abbey (1803 [†1818]), Pride and Prejudice (1813) et Persuasion (†1818).Dans cette étude traductologique et littéraire des versions françaises des romans de Jane Austen, Rosemarie Fournier-Guillemette s’intéresse aux destinées françaises des prises de position et de l’écriture de cette autrice qui a inspiré de nombreuses féministes par sa critique de l’institution du mariage.Eight Men Speak: A Play by Oscar Ryan et al. (Canadian Literature Collection)
Par Oscar Ryan, Edward Cecil-Smith, Frank Love, Mildred Goldberg. 2012
This volume comprises a reprinting and gloss of the original text of the 1933 Communist play Eight Men Speak. The…
play was banned by the Toronto police after its first performance, banned by the Winnipeg police shortly thereafter and subsequently banned by the Canadian Post Office. The play can be considered as one stage–the published text–of a meta-text that culminated in 1934 at Maple Leaf Gardens when the (then illegal) Communist Party of Canada celebrated the release of its leader, Tim Buck, from prison. Eight Men Speak had been written and staged on behalf of the campaign to free Buck by the Canadian Labour Defence League, the public advocacy group of the CPC. In its theatrical techniques, incorporating avant-garde expressionist staging, mass chant, agitprop and modernist dramaturgy, Eight Men Speak exemplified the vanguardist aesthetics of the Communist left in the years before the Popular Front. It is the first instance of the collective theatrical techniques that would become widespread in subsequent decades and formative in the development of modern Canadian drama. These include a decentred narrative, collaborative authorship and a refusal of dramaturgical linearity in favour of theatricalist demonstration. As such it is one of the most significant Canadian plays of the first half of the century, and, on the evidence of the surviving photograph of the mise-en-scene, one of the earliest examples of modernist staging in Canada. - This book is published in English.Selected Letters of Vernon Lee, 1856–1935 (The Pickering Masters #3)

Par Robert J. Morgan. 2011
Yes, angels are real. They are not the product of your imagination. &“If we had open spiritual eyes we would see not only…

Par Andrea Ceccherelli. 2024
Dante and Polish Writers: From Romanticism to the Present explores the phenomenon of Polish Danteism from a hermeneutic perspective. The chapters…
shed light on a series of “encounters” of eminent Polish writers with Dante and the Divine Comedy, resulting in original interpretations, creative reworkings, and a wealth of intertextual references testifying to a dialogue that has always been – and still is - alive, not excluding antagonism and bitter controversy. The contributors are all scholars of Polish literature with comparative expertise, teaching in Italian and Polish universities, which ensures a consistently focused point of view on the receptive context and the ways in which it is affected by the confrontation with Dante. The hermeneutic horizon ranges from the Inferno-like reading of the inhuman lands with which history abounds, to the metaphysical yearning underlying Dante’s “poetics of transhumanizing,” to recent perspectives related to the posthuman and storytelling.Dancing an Embodied Sinthome: Beyond Phallic Jouissance (The Palgrave Lacan Series)
Par Megan Sherritt. 2023
This book provides the first in-depth analysis of Lacanian psychoanalytic theory and the art of dance and explores what each…
practice can offer the other. It takes as its starting point Jacques Lacan’s assertion that James Joyce’s literary works helped him create what Lacan terms a sinthome, thereby preventing psychosis. That is, Joyce’s use of written language helped him maintain a “normal” existence despite showing tendencies towards psychosis. Here it is proposed that writing was only the method through which Joyce worked but that the key element in his sinthome was play, specifically the play of the Lacanian real.The book moves on to consider how dance operates similarly to Joyce’s writing and details the components of Joyce’s sinthome, not as a product that keeps him sane, but as an interminable process for coping with the (Lacanian) real. The author contends that Joyce goes beyond words and meaning, using language’s metre, tone, rhythm, and cadence to play with the real, mirroring his experience of it and confining it to his works, creating order in the chaos of his mind. The art of dance is shown to be a process that likewise allows one to play with the real. However, it is emphasized that dance goes further: it also teaches someone how to play if one doesn't already know how. This book offers a compelling analysis that sheds new light on the fields of psychoanalysis and dance and looks to what this can tell us about—and the possibilities for—both practices, concluding that psychoanalysis and dance both offer processes that open possibilities that might otherwise seem impossible. This original analysis will be of particular interest to those working in the fields of psychoanalysis, aesthetics, psychoanalytic theory, critical theory, art therapy, and dance studies.The Effluent Eye: Narratives for Decolonial Right-Making
Par Rosemary J. Jolly. 2024
Why human rights don&’t work In The Effluent Eye, Rosemary J. Jolly argues for the decolonization of human rights, attributing…
their failure not simply to state and institutional malfeasance but to the very concept of human rights as anthropocentric—and, therefore, fatally shortsighted. In an engaging mix of literary and cultural criticism, Indigenous and Black critique, and substantive forays into the medical humanities, Jolly proposes right-making in the demise of human rights. Using what she calls an &“effluent eye,&” Jolly draws on &“Fifth Wave&” structural public health to confront the concept of human rights—one of the most powerful and widely entrenched liberal ideas. She builds on Indigenous sovereignty work from authors such as Robin Wall Kimmerer, Leanne Betasamosake Simpson, and Mark Rifkin as well as the littoral development in Black studies from Christine Sharpe, Saidiya Hartman, and Tiffany Lethabo King to engage decolonial thinking on a range of urgent topics such as pandemic history and grief; gender-based violence and sexual assault; and the connections between colonial capitalism and substance abuse, the Anthropocene, and climate change. Combining witnessed experience with an array of decolonial texts, Jolly argues for an effluent form of reading that begins with the understanding that the granting of &“rights&” to individuals is meaningless in a world compromised by pollution, poverty, and successive pandemics.

Par Anissa Talahite-Moodley. 2007
De quelle manière s’est transformée l’idée d’appartenance à une culture, une nation ou une ethnie particulière ? Peut-on encore parler…
d’ « exil » dans le contexte de cultures transnationales et d’identités plurielles ? Y a-t-il une écriture de l’exil ? Cet ouvrage cherche des réponses à ces questions à travers le regard nouveau que portent les écrivains francophones contemporains sur les problématiques identitaires. Un groupe international d’universitaires s’est penché sur des œuvres d’auteurs francophone d’origines diverses – africaine, antillaise, canadienne, chinoise, maghrébine, libanaise, russe pour n’en citer qu’une partie – pour y interpréter le « discours de l’exil ». Ce qui ressort est une diversité immense mais une constante : l’exil est une mise en perspective qui ouvre la possibilité de constructions identitaires nouvelles et fait de ces littératures francophones un lieu de créations fertile en questionnements.RE: Canadian Literature and Criticism after Modernism (Reappraisals: Canadian Writers)
Par Robert David Stacey. 2010
It would be difficult to exaggerate the worldwide impact of postmodernism on the fields of cultural production and the social…
sciences over the last quarter century—even if the concept has been understood in various, even contradictory, ways. An interest in postmodernism and postmodernity has been especially strong in Canada, in part thanks to the country’s non-monolithic approach to history and its multicultural understanding of nationalism, which seems to align with the decentralized, plural, and open-ended pursuit of truth as a multiple possibility as outlined by Jean-François Lyotard. In fact, long before Lyotard published his influential work The Postmodern Condition in 1979, Canadian writers and critics were employing the term to describe a new kind of writing. RE: Reading the Postmodern marks a first cautious step toward a history of Canadian postmodernism, exploring the development of the idea of the postmodern and debates about its meaning and its applicability to various genres of Canadian writing, and charting its decline in recent years as a favoured critical trope.Engendering Genre: The Works of Margaret Atwood
Par Reingard M. Nischik. 2009
Winner of the 2010 Margaret Atwood Society Best Book Prize. In Engendering Genre, renowned Margaret Atwood scholar Reingard M. Nischik…
analyzes the relationship between gender and genre in Atwood’s works. She approaches Atwood’s oeuvre by genre – poetry, short fiction, novels, criticism, comics, and film – and examines them individually. She explores how Atwood has developed her genres to be gender-sensitive in both content and form and argues that gender and genre are inherently complicit in Atwood’s work: they converge to critique the gender-biased designs of traditional genres. This combination of gender and genre results in the recognizable Atwoodian style that shakes and extends the boundaries of conventional genres and explores them in new ways. The book includes the first in-depth treatment of Atwood’s cartoon art as well as the first survey of her involvement with film, and concludes with an interview with Margaret Atwood on her career “From Survivalwoman to Literary Icon.”Northrop Frye and Others: The Order of Words (Canadian Literature Collection)
Par Robert D. Denham. 2017
This book, based on extensive archival and historical work, identifies and brings to light additional and littlerecognized intellectual influences on…
Frye, and analyzes how they informed his thought. These are variously major thinkers, sets of texts, and intellectual traditions: the Mahayana Sutras, Machiavelli, Rabelais, Boehme, Hegel, Coleridge, Carlyle, Mill, Jane Ellen Harrison and Elizabeth Fraser. In each chapter, dedicated to Frye’s connection to a specific influence, Denham describes how Frye became acquainted with each, and how he interpreted and adapted certain ideas from them to help work out his own conceptual systems. Denham offers insights on Frye’s relationship with his historical and intellectual contexts, provides valuable additional context for understanding the work of one of the 20th century’s leading scholars of literature and culture. Includes over 20 photos, tables and figures, as well as a chapter on Frye’s personal relationship with Elizabeth Fraser.The format of this book is arbitrary and exact, the way paint is in a landscape by Alex Colville. It…
follows the program of the symposium that took place at the University of Ottawa, from April 25 to 27, 1986. As Bakhtin leaps from the sidelines to centre stage, as Derrida clambers out of orchestra pit into the prompter's box, and Lancan swings from the flies, as Foucault, Lévi-Strauss, Saussure, Barthes, and a throng of others rhubarb their way through the text, one recognizes just how connected all the disparate elements of this critical extravaganza really are.
