Download or read book Esculape et Dionysos written by Jean Céard and published by Librairie Droz. This book was released on 2008 with total page 1220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esculape et Dionysos invite à partager, sur le mode de l'excès et de la mesure à la fois, l'esprit que Jean Céard a insufflé à tous ceux qui ont collaboré avec lui ou travaillé sous sa direction ; ainsi ce recueil d'études contribue-t-il à illustrer l'intimité du scientifique et du littéraire, du plaisir et du sens, liaison profonde que le travail de ce pédagogue et chercheur a toujours souhaité comprendre. On y goûtera une cornucopie de joyeuseté scientifique tirant ses fruits des différents champs du savoir que Jean Céard a explorés tout au long de sa carrière (philosophie, sciences naturelles, théologie), enrichissant aussi des questions génériques et d'histoire littéraire qu'il a tout particulièrement éclairées (la poésie, la traduction), ou relançant l'étude d'un auteur dont il a renouvelé l'approche (Rabelais). Cette plongée dans la culture de la Renaissance vise, au fil de quelque soixante-dix enquêtes, à témoigner de la générosité intellectuelle d'un de ses plus éminents historiens et, au nom de la curiosité sans bornes de celui-ci, à entraîner le lecteur à se nourrir «d'admiration, chasse [et] ambiguïté» pour progresser sur la voie que Jean Céard a éclairée de manière décisive: l'interprétation des signes au XVIe siècle.

Download or read book Reproduction in Education Society and Culture written by Pierre Bourdieu and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1990-10 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The way in which the ruling ideas of a social system are related to structures of class, production and power, and how these are legitimated and perpetuated, is fundamental to the sociological project. In this second edition of this classic text, which includes a new introduction by Pierre Bourdieu, the authors develop an analysis of education (in its broadest sense, encompassing more than the process of formal education). They show how education carries an essentially arbitrary cultural scheme which is actually, though not in appearance, based on power. More widely, the reproduction of culture through education is shown to play a key part in the reproduction of the whole social system. The analysis is carried through not only in theoretica

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays celebrates the work of the French Nobel prize-winning novelist Claude Simon. Scholars reconsider the fifty years of Simon's fiction in the light of his large-scale autobiographical novel, 'Le Jardin des Plantes' (1997). From a variety of perspectives - postmodernist, psychoanalytic, aesthetic - chapters reflect on the central paradox of Simon's work: his writing and rewriting of an experience of war so disruptive and traumatic that words can never be adequate to communicate it.

Download or read book Aloysius Bertrand s Gaspard de la Nuit Beyond the Prose Poem written by Valentina Gosetti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aloysius Bertrand’s Gaspard de la Nuit (1842) is a familiar title to music lovers, thanks to Ravel’s piano work of the same name, and to specialists of French literature, especially those interested in Baudelaire’s prose poetry. Yet until very recently the collection and its author have generally been viewed almost exclusively through the prism of their pioneering role in the development of the prose poem. By placing Bertrand back in his original context, adopting a comparative approach and engaging with recent critical work on the collection, Valentina Gosetti proposes a substantial reassessment of Gaspard de la Nuit and promotes a new understanding of Bertrand in his own terms, rather than those of his successors. Through his playful and ironic reinterpretation of Romantic clichés, and his overt defiance of the boundaries of poetry and beauty, Bertrand emerges as a fascinating figure in his own right. This book is one of the first full-length studies of Bertrand’s work, and it will be of particular interest to specialists of the nineteenth century and of provincial literature, and to students of nineteenth-century poetry or the fantastic.

Download or read book The Rules of Art written by Pierre Bourdieu and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written with verve and intensity (and a good bit of wordplay), this is the long-awaited study of Flaubert and the modern literary field that constitutes the definitive work on the sociology of art by one of the worlds leading social theorists. Drawing upon the history of literature and art from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, Bourdieu develops an original theory of art conceived as an autonomous value. He argues powerfully against those who refuse to acknowledge the interconnection between art and the structures of social relations within which it is produced and received. As Bourdieu shows, arts new autonomy is one such structure, which complicates but does not eliminate the interconnection. The literary universe as we know it today took shape in the nineteenth century as a space set apart from the approved academies of the state. No one could any longer dictate what ought to be written or decree the canons of good taste. Recognition and consecration were produced in and through the struggle in which writers, critics, and publishers confronted one another.
