Download or read book Ruy Blas written by Victor Hugo and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 2018 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ruy Blas has held the stage better than any other of his dramas and has been popular in America. Here Hugo's dramatic theory of contrast of grave and gay, rapid alternation of tragic and grotesque, is pushed to its utmost verge. The scene is Madrid; the time 1699. Don Salluste de Bazan, scorned by Maria de Neubourg, second wife of the do-nothing King, Charles II, plots revenge. Failing to enlist the aid of his scapegrace but chivalrous cousin, Don César, he introduces his valet, Ruy Blas, to the queen and through her sympathetic interest gains official preferment which he uses for political and fiscal reform. The queen and Ruy Blas are betrayed into a compromising situation by Don Salluste, who, when Don César threatens to balk his revenge, ruthlessly sacrifices his cousin to his injured vanity. Ruy Blas kills Don Salluste and then himself, consoled that his death has extorted from the queen an admission that love has overcome all prejudice of rank or station.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Le colloque international 2000 ans de Rire. Permanence et modernité qui s'est tenu en juin juillet 2000 à l'initiative commune de Corhum et du Grelis-Laseldi et qui a réuni à l'Université de Franche-Comté à Besançon une cinquantaine de chercheurs de différentes nationalités, relève le défi d'un bilan en "humorologie". Visant à "dresser un état des recherches en fin de millénaire" il ne réalise évidemment pas un parcours exhaustif, mais propose des repères sur le mode de la rétrospective, de la prospective, du défilement panoramique ou de l'" arrêt sur image". Dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire, le champ des lettres reçoit souvent l'éclairage des sciences du langage et des sciences sociales. Les trente-neuf contributions réunies dans ce volume d'actes abordent les phénomènes du rire, du comique, de l'humour à partir de corpus très variés (traditions populaires, dessins, histoires drôles, théâtre, nouvelles, romans, cinéma, chansons, sketches...). Elles sont regroupées en quatre sous-ensembles (Culture et société/Littérature/Langue et discours/Actualités du rire) correspondant à des dominantes disciplinaires et/ou à des objets de recherche. Le volume s'attache à la fois à la singularité du rire selon les communautés, les époques, les genres, et à ce qui fonde l'universalité de ce phénomène complexe à la charnière du naturel et du culturel. Il convie à une réflexion de portée sémiotique sur les processus de compréhension et d'interprétation, en privilégiant les données culturelles et les rapports sociaux observés à travers la médiation des formes et des interactions."
