Book Synopsis How to Show Things with Words by : Rui Linhares-Dias
Download or read book How to Show Things with Words written by Rui Linhares-Dias and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2006 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book straddles the border between linguistics and philosophy to address, on a sound interdisciplinary basis, the narrative-theoretical issue of proximal vs. distal stance adoption. In languages with no grammaticalized evidential systems, the epistemological structure of discourse underlying perspectival oppositions is heavily dependent on the self-expression of language-using personae and must thereby be inferred from a well-defined set of surface markers. For that matter, the book provides an in-depth formal semantic account of tense, aspect and Aktionsart, supported by the cognitive processes inherent in eventuality-description types.

Book Synopsis Re-Reading Zola and Worldwide Naturalism by : Marie-Sophie Armstrong
Download or read book Re-Reading Zola and Worldwide Naturalism written by Marie-Sophie Armstrong and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-26 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Re-Reading Zola and Worldwide Naturalism continues the discussion of Émile Zola and French naturalism with examinations of unexplored areas of the founding father’s project and legacy. In addition to offering essays on Zola’s lesser known naturalist contemporaries, the volume extends the investigation of the naturalist literary current to include areas of Europe outside France, as well as the Americas and Asia, tracking its persistence in various forms through the twentieth century and into the twenty-first. The authors pay particular attention to the ways naturalism was conceived and then received, including in other channels, undergoing transformations in new social conditions and creating other versions of the basic precepts. This work features multidisciplinary and comparative approaches to the study of naturalism, paying tribute to Anna Gural-Migdal—a Professor of French Literature and Film Studies at the University of Alberta, in Canada, who specializes in the visual aspect of Zola’s Rougon Macquart novels and the transfer of these strategies to naturalist film. She has been a leader in the field of Zola and naturalism in her role as president of the AIZEN for almost fifteen of its twenty years of existence.

Book Synopsis Grand-Guignol Cinema and the Horror Genre by : Mario DeGiglio-Bellemare
Download or read book Grand-Guignol Cinema and the Horror Genre written by Mario DeGiglio-Bellemare and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2023-02-14 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grand-Gugignol Cinema and the Horror Genre traces important contributions of the Parisian Grand-Guignol theatre’s Golden Age as theoretical considerations of embodiment and affect in the development of horror cinema in the twentieth century. This study traces key components of the Grand-Guignol stage as a means to explore the immersive and corporeal aspects of horror cinema from the sound period to today. The book is a means to explore the Grand-Guignol not only as a historical place and genre, but also, theoretically, as a conceptual framework that opens up an affective mapping of Grand-Guignol attractions in cinema. This study’s restoration of a long Grand-Guignol tradition in cinema makes it a significant contribution to new theorizations of horror. It brings seemingly disparate traditions into conversation, as American, Canadian, French, and Italian cinema are all important sites for thinking through cinematic embodiment. These four countries have developed their own important genres and movements of Grand-Guignol cinema: the slasher, the “French Films of Sensation,” Canadian “body horror” and the giallo. The Grand-Guignol famously operated in a dead-end of Chaptal Street, in the Pigalle district of Paris; this study offers affective and corporeal readings that open up new byways beyond the dead-end of psychoanalytic readings that continues to be dominant in horror genre scholarship.

Download or read book Yvette written by Guy de Maupassant and published by Le Livre de Poche. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edition enrichie (préface, notes, commentaire, documents, biographie, chronologie) Publié en 1884, Yvette, l'une des œuvres les plus justement célèbres de Maupassant, nous conte une éducation sentimentale et sociale. Courtisée par l'élégant Servigny, l'ingénue Yvette prend peu à peu conscience du milieu équivoque dans lequel la fait vivre sa mère, une aventurière jouant la marquise. Se gardant de tout recours au larmoyant ou au tragique, l'auteur de Boule de suif dépeint ce demi-monde à petites touches précises et subtiles. Les autres nouvelles du recueil explorent les registres les plus divers, du tableau exotique ou guerrier (Mohammed-Fripouille) au drame psychologique (L'Abandonné) ou criminel (Le Garde). Chacune offre cette alliance de réalisme minutieux, de sens de l'intrigue et de recréation visionnaire qui fait la singularité et la force de Maupassant. Présentation et notes de Gérard Gengembre.

Book Synopsis The Rhetoric of Pessimism and Strategies of Containment in the Short Stories of Guy de Maupassant by : David Bryant
Download or read book The Rhetoric of Pessimism and Strategies of Containment in the Short Stories of Guy de Maupassant written by David Bryant and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study proposes an overall interpretation based on an analysis of three constants. First, Maupassant accepts that man lives in an objective, contingent world in which he has no purpose, and elevates the notion of chance into an explanation of the human condition. Secondly, this awareness explains the adoption of a view of the world as farce. Thirdly, in order to shape and mitigate the consequences of these positions, Maupassant elaborates a rhetoric of pessimism and strategies of containment. The book argues that this triple approach enables Maupassant to rise above the evidence of his experience and gives the reader access to a work that otherwise might appear inconsequential and disparate. Maupassant's three hundred and six short stories represent a unified series of variations on three constants and offer a coherent, structured response to a personal dilemma that nevertheless has wider application.
