Download or read book Le Jardin des supplices (French Edition) written by OCTAVE MIRBEAU and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait : "Avant de raconter un des plus effroyables épisodes de mon voyage en Extrême-Orient, il est peut-être intéressant que j'explique brièvement dans quelles conditions je fus amené à l'entreprendre. C'est de l'histoire contemporaine." Descriptif : Le jardin des supplices, invention littéraire de Mirbeau, réunit dans une configuration obsédante ces deux clichés : celui de la cruauté des Chinois qui lui sert de paravent exotique pour exposer une réflexion anthropologique portant sur la cruauté humaine en général. Il ne contient pas seulement des descriptions horrifiantes de supplices. Il contient aussi des considérations sur la cruauté humaine et sur la pulsion scopique et sur le voyeurisme. Le roman d’Octave Mirbeau a eu à l’époque un grand succès. Extrait : Si tu es près de moi… quand je mourrai… cher petit cœur… écoute bien !… Tu mettras… c’est cela… tu mettras un joli coussin de soie jaune entre mes pauvres petits pieds et le bois du cercueil… Et puis… tu tueras mon beau chien du Laos… et tu l’allongeras, tout sanglant, contre moi… comme il a coutume de s’allonger lui-même, tu sais, avec une patte sur ma cuisse et une autre patte sur mon sein… Et puis… longtemps… longtemps… tu m’embrasseras, cher amour, sur les dents… et dans les cheveux… Et tu me diras des choses… des choses si jolies… et qui bercent et qui brûlent… des choses comme quand tu m’aimes… Pas, tu veux, mon chéri ?… Tu me promets ?… Voyons, ne fais pas cette figure d’enterrement… Ce n’est pas de mourir, qui est triste… c’est de vivre quand on n’est pas heureux… Jure ! jure que tu me promets !… Le Jardin des supplices n'est pas seulement le catalogue de toutes les perversions dans lesquelles s'est complu l'imaginaire de 1900. L'ouvrage exprime aussi l'ambiguïté de l'attitude d'un Européen libéral, mais Européen avant tout, devant le colonialisme et ce qu'on n'appelait pas encore le Tiers Monde. Pour Mirbeau, la Chine est le lieu des plaisirs mortels et, par leur système pénal et l'invraisemblable raffinement de leur cruauté, les Chinois ne peuvent être à ses yeux que des barbares : Emmanuelle sur fond de guerre du Viêt-nam, comme l'écrit Michel Delon. Mais les Chinois vivent dans une société plus solidaire et matériellement moins asservie que la nôtre. Et surtout ils sont d'admirables artistes. Tel est le paradoxe de la Chine : un jardin de supplices mais aussi les plus belles porcelaines, les plus beaux bronzes que l'on ait jamais faits. «Voici donc les Barbares à peau jaune dont les civilisés d'Europe à peau blanche violent le sol. Nous sommes toujours les mêmes sauvages, les mêmes ennemis de la Beauté.»

Book excerpt: "Beauvoir in Time situates Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex in the historical context of its writing and in later contexts of its international reception, from then till now. The book takes up three aspects of Beauvoir's work more recent feminists find embarrassing: "bad sex," "dated" views about lesbians, and intersections with race and class. Through close reading of her writing in many genres, alongside contemporaneous discourses (good and bad novels in French and English, outmoded psychoanalytic and sexological authorities, ethnographic surrealism, the writing of Richard Wright and Franz Fanon), and in light of her travels to the U.S. and China, the author uncovers insights more recent feminist methodologies obscure, showing Beauvoir is still good to think with today"--

Download or read book The European Landscape Convention written by Michael Jones and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and insightful book provides, for the first time, a broad presentation of ongoing research into public participation in landscape conservation, management and planning, following the 2000 European Landscape Convention which came into force in 2004. The book examines both the theory of participation and what lessons can be learnt from specific European examples. It explores in what manner and to what extent the provisions for participation in the European Landscape Convention have been followed up and implemented. It also presents and compares different experiences of participation in selected countries from northern, southern, eastern and western Europe, and provides a critical examination of public participation in practice. However, while the book’s focus is necessarily on Europe, many of the conclusions drawn are of global relevance. The book provides a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students in landscape policies and management, as well as for professionals and others interested in land-use planning and environmental management.

Book excerpt: Michel de Certeau considers the uses to which social representation and modes of social behavior are put by individuals and groups, describing the tactics available to the common man for reclaiming his own autonomy from the all-pervasive forces of commerce, politics, and culture. In exploring the public meaning of ingeniously defended private meanings, de Certeau draws on an immense theoretical literature in analytic philosophy, linguistics, sociology, semiology, and anthropology--to speak of an apposite use of imaginative literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Salvator Rosa (1615–1673) was a colorful and controversial Italian painter, talented musician, a notable comic actor, a prolific correspondent, and a successful satirist and poet. His paintings, especially his rugged landscapes and their evocation of the sublime, appealed to Romantic writers, and his work was highly influential on several generations of European writers. James S. Patty analyzes Rosa’s tremendous influence on French writers, chiefly those of the nineteenth century, such as Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Victor Hugo, George Sand, and Théophile Gautier. Arranged in chronological order, with numerous quotations from French fiction, poetry, drama, art criticism, art history, literary history, and reference works, Salvator Rosa in French Literature forms a narrative account of the reception of Rosa’s life and work in the world of French letters. James S. Patty, professor emeritus of French at Vanderbilt University, is the author of Dürer in French Letters . He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.

Download or read book The Violence of Modernity written by Debarati Sanyal and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Violence of Modernity turns to Charles Baudelaire, one of the most canonical figures of literary modernism, in order to reclaim an aesthetic legacy for ethical inquiry and historical critique. Works of modern literature are commonly theorized as symptomatic responses to the trauma of history. In a climate that tends to privilege crisis over critique, Debarati Sanyal argues that it is urgent to rethink literary experience in terms that recall its contestatory potential. Examining Baudelaire's poems afresh, she shifts the focus of critical attention toward an account of modernism as an active engagement with violence, specifically the violence of history in nineteenth-century France. Sanyal analyzes a literary current that uses the traditional hallmarks of modernism—irony, intertextuality, self-reflexivity, and formalism—to challenge the historical violence of modernity. Baudelaire and the committed ironists writing in his wake teach us how to read and resist the violence of history, and thereby to challenge the melancholy tenor of our contemporary "wound culture." In a series of provocative readings, Sanyal presents Baudelaire's poetry as an aesthetic form that contests historical violence through rhetorical strategies of complicity, counterviolence, and critique. The book develops a new account of Baudelaire's significance as a modernist by dislodging him both from his traditional status as a practitioner of "art for art's sake" and from his more recent incarnation as the poet of trauma. Following her extended analysis of Baudelaire's poetry, Sanyal in later chapters considers a number of authors influenced by his strategies—including Rachilde, Virginie Despentes, Albert Camus, and Jean-Paul Sartre—to examine the relevance of their interventions for our current climate of trauma and terror. The result is a study that underscores how Baudelaire's legacy continues to energize literary engagements with the violence of modernity.
