Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Delphine revint vers la maman de Noémie et approcha la couveuse, où sa petite fille luttait silencieusement. Sa maman se mit à lui parler d'une voix à la fois douce et haut-perché. Delphine jeta un regard à la petite fille, baignée de lumière ultra-violette. Sous le petit bonnet de laine, Noémie offrait un visage au teint presque transparent, strié de minuscules vaisseaux sanguins roses vif. Elle avait les yeux fermés, mais on aurait dit qu'elle écoutait." Dans les coulisses d'un service de néonatologie, il n'y a pas de place pour les états d'âme. Lorsque l'injustice s'ajoute aux complications de la vie privée, la nuit ressemble à une interminable traversée.

Download or read book The Birth to Presence written by Jean-Luc Nancy and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The epoch of representation is as old as the West. Indeed, representation is the West, understood as what at once designates and expands its own limits. But what comes after the West? What comes after representation's disclosure of its own limit? The central problem posed in these essays, collected from over a decade of work, is how in the wake of Western ontologies to conceive the coming, the birth that characterizes being. We are now at the limit of representation, where objects as we experience them have been show to be merely objects of representation--or rather, of presentation, since there is nothing to (re)present. The first part of this book, "Existence," asks how, today, one can give sense of meaning to existence as such, arguing that existence itself, as it comes nude into the world, must now be our "sense." In examining what this birth to presence might be, we should not ask what presence "is"; rather we should conceive presence as presence to someone, including to presence itself. This birth is not the constitution of an identity, but the endless departure of an identity from, and from within, its other, or others. Its coming is not desire but jouissance, the joy of averring oneself to be continually in the state of being born--a rejoicing of birth, a birth of rejoicing. The second section, "Poetry," asks: What art exposes this? In writing, in the voice, in painting? And what if art is exposed to it? How does it inscribe (or rather, "exscribe," in a term the book develops) the coming existence as such? The author's trajectory in this book crosses those of Hegel, Schlegel, Baudelaire, Nietzsche, Freud, and Heidegger, in their comments on art and politics, existence and corporeality, everyday life and its modes of existence and ecstasy. An analysis that dares this crossing involves all the varied accounts of existence, political as well as philosophical, and all the realms of poverty.

Book excerpt: Une nouvelle traduction française de 2023 de "Nuit et jour" de 1919 de la célèbre romancière anglaise Virginia Woolf, avec une introduction de la traductrice. Adeline Virginia Woolf était une romancière et critique victorienne, largement considérée comme l'une des plus importantes romancières féministes de tous les temps. Ses techniques de flux de conscience et son style poétique comptent parmi les contributions les plus importantes à la fiction moderne. En raison de l'importance de Woolf en tant qu'innovatrice de la forme du roman moderne et commentatrice de la quasi-totalité de la littérature anglaise et européenne, sa vie a fait l'objet de nombreuses recherches. Woolf a écrit neuf romans majeurs ainsi que des essais sur la théorie de l'art, l'histoire littéraire, l'écriture des femmes et la politique du pouvoir. Les tentatives de Woolf pour capturer les moments fugaces de la vie à travers les modèles, les structures et les images de son écriture, probablement les plus influentes utilisées dans les monologues internes pour communiquer des couches de pensées, de sentiments et de perceptions. Aujourd'hui, pour la toute première fois, tous ses romans sont disponibles en français moderne. Le deuxième roman de Woolf, Night and Day, a été publié en 1919, quatre ans après son premier roman, The Voyage Out. Il a fait l'objet d'importantes révisions visant à modérer le ton plus strident et plus furieux de ses commentaires politiques, de l'échec de ses fiançailles avec son ami Lytton Strachey, de son mariage avec Leonard Woolf et d'au moins une dépression et une tentative de suicide.
Download or read book Rewriting Franco s Spain written by Samuel O’Donoghue and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rewriting Franco’s Spain: Marcel Proust and the Dissident Novelists of Memory proposes a new reading of some of the most culturally significant and closely studied works of Spanish memory fiction from the past seventy years. It examines the influence of French writer Marcel Proust on fiction concerning the Spanish Civil War and Franco’s dictatorship by Carmen Laforet, Juan Goytisolo, Juan Benet, Carmen Martín Gaite, Jorge Semprún, and Javier Marías. It explores the ways in which À la recherche du temps perdu has been instrumental in these authors’ works, galvanizing their creative impetus, shaping their imaginative act, and guiding their adversarial stance toward Franco’s regime. This book illustrates how these writers use Proustian themes and techniques and thereby enhances our understanding of the function of memory and fictional creation in some of the most important milestones in contemporary Spanish literature. Rewriting Franco’s Spain argues that an appreciation of Proust’s pervasive influence on Spanish memory writing obliges us to reconsider the notion that Franco’s regime maintained a rigid stranglehold on imported culture. Capturing the richness of Spanish novelists’ contact with literature produced outside of Spain, it challenges the prevailing scholarly tendency to focus on the novelists’ immediate sociopolitical concerns. There is more to these texts than a simple testimony of the brutality and hardship of the civil war and life under Franco. By illuminating the subversive nature of Spanish novelists’ use of a Proust-inspired practice of self-writing, Rewriting Franco’s Spain seeks to readjust some of the ways we view the role of novelists living during the regime and in its wake. It advocates a conception of novelists as dissidents, teasing out the seditious undercurrent of their cultivation of self-writing and examining how they disputed the regime’s ideas about what culture should look like. The preconception that the development of Spanish literature under Franco was stunted because Spaniards were prevented from reading works considered an affront to National-Catholic sensibilities is cast aside, as is the notion that Spain was isolated from narrative developments elsewhere. Rewriting Franco’s Spain ultimately reveals the centrality of Proust’s monumental novel in the evolution of contemporary Spanish literature.
