Download or read book Proust Latino written by Rubén Gallo and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marcel Proust a été l'intime de plusieurs figures latino-américaines installées à Paris au début du xxe siècle. Se pourrait-il que ces amitiés aient influencé l'auteur de la Recherche et que cette ouverture à un monde lointain, exotique, ait façonné son imaginaire ? A cette question audacieuse, l'universitaire Rubén Gallo répond par un livre savoureux en forme d'enquête culturelle et littéraire. A travers les portraits des Latino-Américains les plus proches de Proust, son amant, le Vénézuélien Reynaldo Hahn ; le fantasque secrétaire argentin du comte de Montesquiou, modèle de Charlus, Gabriel de Yturri ; le poète cubain José Maria de Heredia et le sulfureux critique littéraire mexicain Ramón Fernández, Gallo s'attache à établir la présence forte de l'Amérique latine dans la vie de Proust et dans la construction de son oeuvre. Loin du dandy parisien, on y découvre un Proust plus spontané, plus tropical. En tentant de démêler les liens de ces deux mondes, leurs apports réciproques, Rubén Gallo livre aussi un beau texte sur l'altérité en art, et une réflexion puissante sur le rapport ambigu de la France, à l'époque phare culturel incontestable, à ses étrangers, si brillants soient-ils.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis qu’il a découvert que Marcel Proust avait été l’intime de plusieurs figures latino-américaines installées à Paris au tournant du XXe siècle, une intuition guide le travail de Rubén Gallo, universitaire mexicain reconnu : ces amitiés ont laissé des traces dans la vie de l’auteur de La Recherche et cette ouverture à un monde lointain, exotique, a façonné son imaginaire.De cette assertion audacieuse, iconoclaste, Gallo tire un livre savoureux en forme d’enquête culturelle et littéraire. À travers les portraits des Latino-Américains les plus proches de Proust, son amant, le Vénézuélien Reynaldo Hahn ; le fantasque secrétaire argentin du comte de Montesquiou, modèle de Charlus, Gabriel de Yturri ; le poète cubain José Maria de Heredia ; et le sulfureux critique littéraire mexicain Ramón Fernández, Gallo s’attache à établir la présence forte de l’Amérique latine dans la vie de Proust et dans la construction de son œuvre.

Il a été repéré en France suite à la publication, en 2013, de son ouvrage Freud au Mexique aux éditions Campagne première. Proust Latino est son premier essai à paraître aux éditions Buchet-Chastel.

Book Marcel Proust and Spanish America

Download or read book Marcel Proust and Spanish America written by Herbert E. Craig and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Craig begins by attributing the early introduction of the Recherche to the intimate friendship between Proust and the pianist-composer Reynaldo Halm, who was born in Caracas. He then shows in chapter 1 how literary critics of the principal newspapers and literary magazines of such countries as Venezuela, Argentina, and Chile examined this French text, which we know today as one of the fundamental works of modernism. Shortly thereafter interest in the Recherche spread to Cuba, Mexico, Uruguay, and Colombia. Eventually it would be read in all parts of the New World. Over the years Spanish Americans have continued to write about the Recherche and have published several noteworthy books on it, which are included in the comprehensive bibliography which serves as an appendix."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Understanding Marcel Proust

Download or read book Understanding Marcel Proust written by Allen Thiher and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Marcel Proust includes an overview of Marcel Proust's development as a writer, addressing both works published and unpublished in his lifetime, and then offers an in-depth interpretation of Proust's major novel, In Search of Lost Time, relating it to the Western literary tradition while also demonstrating its radical newness as a narrative. In his introduction Allen Thiher outlines Proust's development in the context of the political and artistic life of the Third Republic, arguing that everything Proust wrote before In Search of Lost Time was an experiment in sorting out whether he wanted to be a writer of critical theory or of fiction. Ultimately, Thiher observes, all these experiments had a role in the elaboration of the novel. Proust became both theorist and fiction writer by creating a bildungsroman narrating a writer's education. What is perhaps most original about Thiher's interpretation, however, is his demonstration that Proust removed his aged narrator from the novel's temporal flow to achieve a kind of fictional transcendence. Proust never situates his narrator in historical time, which allows him to demonstrate concretely what he sees as the function of art: the truth of the absolute particular removed from time's determinations. The artist that the narrator hopes to become at the end of the novel must pursue his own individual truths—those in fact that the novel has narrated, for him and the reader, up to the novel's conclusion. Written in a language accessible to upper-level undergraduates as well as literate general readers, Understanding Marcel Proust simultaneously addresses a scholarly public aware of the critical arguments that Proust's work has generated. Thiher's study should make Proust's In Search of Lost Time more widely accessible by explicating its structure and themes.

Book Discourses of Mourning in Dante  Petrarch  and Proust

Download or read book Discourses of Mourning in Dante Petrarch and Proust written by Jennifer Rushworth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-24 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together, in a novel and exciting combination, three authors who have written movingly about mourning: two medieval Italian poets, Dante Alighieri and Francesco Petrarca, and one early twentieth-century French novelist, Marcel Proust. Each of these authors, through their respective narratives of bereavement, grapples with the challenge of how to write adequately about the deeply personal and painful experience of grief. In Jennifer Rushworth's analysis, discourses of mourning emerge as caught between the twin, conflicting demands of a comforting, readable, shared generality and a silent, solitary respect for the uniqueness of any and every experience of loss. Rushworth explores a variety of major questions in the book, including: what type of language is appropriate to mourning? What effect does mourning have on language? Why and how has the Orpheus myth been so influential on discourses of mourning across different time periods and languages? Might the form of mourning described in a text and the form of closure achieved by that same text be mutually formative and sustaining? In this way, discussion of the literary representation of mourning extends to embrace topics such as the medieval sin of acedia, the proper name, memory, literary epiphanies, the image of the book, and the concept of writing as promise. In addition to the three primary authors, Rushworth draws extensively on the writings of Sigmund Freud, Julia Kristeva, Jacques Derrida, and Roland Barthes. These rich and diverse psychoanalytical and French theoretical traditions provide terminological nuance and frameworks for comparison, particularly in relation to the complex term melancholia.
