Abstract

L’intitulé de ce troisième colloque universitaire recouvre la première moitié du très beau titre de la thèse de doctorat de Joseph Rouffanche consacré à Jean Follain, Espace du cœur et passion du temps, dont le premier volet fut largement exploré lors de la rencontre de Mortemart en 2003. Le présent colloque marque une première étape fondatrice dans l’existence de la jeune Société des Amis de Joseph Rouffanche (S.AJ.O.R.), qui entend étudier et promouvoir l’œuvre du poète, ainsi que, plus largement, la poésie contemporaine. Il nous a semblé opportun d’ouvrir la définition de « l’espace du cœur » que propose le poète dans son mémoire, où l’expression représente « la mémoire des jeunes années, matériau de prédilection du poétique, substance dont presque tout poème plus ou moins se nourrit, que tout rappelle, où tout ramène, pour célébrer, magnifier, inventer, et pour un salut ». La terre limousine incarne le « luxe du cœur » de Rouffanche (Élégies limousines). Il s’agit là à la fois d’un territoire fondateur, symbole d’un certain rapport au monde, réalisé dans l’enfance. Mais « l’espace du cœur » recouvre différentes acceptions que les études présentées ici explorent finement : lien du poète à l’espace aérien ; temple de l’écriture ; compagnonnage avec des auteurs de prédilection ; proximité d’un bestiaire ; cadastre du monde et cartographie de l’âme.

Abstract

Georges Bataille, la terreur et les lettres met en cause la vulgate critique qui, à la suite de Tel Quel, continue à donner la faveur à une lecture « terroriste » de l'œuvre bataillienne. On lit toujours Bataille pour le sublime de son abjection et la passion indicible de ses textes. On retient encore de son œuvre ce moment initial où la révolte contre le surréalisme contribue à proposer l'image durable d'une « écriture » antirhétorique, sacrificielle et pulsionnelle. Or, cette approche est aussi historiquement limitée qu'elle est textuellement problématique. Elle ne permet pas de prendre en compte l'ensemble d'une réflexion littéraire qui, dans les années quarante, revient sur ses textes et repense leur relation au sacrifice et à l'indicible. C'est donc à partir d'une relecture générale de l'œuvre et plus particulièrement de certains textes charnières des années quarante (le Coupable, L'expérience intérieure, L'impossible) que le présent ouvrage remet en question le « terrorisme » de Bataille. Il réévalue son approche littéraire dans le contexte critique des œuvres contemporaines pour montrer que l'appel paulhanien à un « retour à la rhétorique » trouve alors davantage d'échos dans l'écriture bataillienne que la terreur anti-poétique. L'expérience intérieure de Bataille, son « impossibilité », n'y perdent pas leur tension vers l'indicible. Elles y gagnent une conscience de leurs clichés et le savoir très sûr de leur littérarité.

Abstract

This book investigates what Bataille, in "The Pineal Eye," calls mythological representation: the mythological anthropology with which this unusual thinker wished to outflank and undo scientific (and philosophical) anthropology. Gasché probes that anthropology by situating Bataille's thought with respect to the quatrumvirate of Schelling, Hegel, Nietzsche, and Freud. He begins by showing what Bataille's understanding of the mythological owes to Schelling. Drawing on Hegel, Nietzsche, and Freud, he then explores the notion of image that constitutes the sort of representation that Bataille's innovative approach entails. Gasché concludes that Bataille's mythological anthropology takes on Hegel's phenomenology in a systematic fashion. By reading it backwards, he not only dismantles its architecture, he also ties each level to the preceding one, replacing the idealities of philosophy with the phantasmatic representations of what he dubs "low materialism." Phenomenology, Gasché argues, thus paves the way for a new "science" of phantasms.

Abstract

The essays in this collection were originally given at the international colloquium Cent Ans de Bataille: La Bataille de Cent Ans held at the Fondació Tàpies in Barcelona in September 1998. They are written from a variety of perspectives but are drawn together by the singular aim of addressing and interrogating Georges Bataille as our contemporary whose fascination with the rupture between mythical and experimental forms of discourse defines our own age as much as it did in Bataille’s own time. More precisely, the essays in this collection range over Bataille’s status as a novelist, a poet, an art critic, a philosopher and a prophet of post-modernity with this aim in mind. They not only seek to advance and clarify debate about Bataille’s present status in the post-modern canon but also shed new light on the complex relation between Bataille and the present generation of readers who have come to him through the prism of post-modernist thought. It is of significance for each writer in this collection, most crucially, that the premonition of catastrophe which defined Bataille’s fluid political positions is also located between tragedy and irony.

Abstract

Why did France spawn the radical poststructuralist rejection of the humanist concept of 'man' as a rational, knowing subject? In this innovative cultural history, Carolyn J. Dean sheds light on the origins of poststructuralist thought, paying particular attention to the reinterpretation of the self by Jacques Lacan, Georges Bataille, and other French thinkers. Arguing that the widely shared belief that the boundaries between self and other had disappeared during the Great War helps explain the genesis of the new concept of the self, Dean examines an array of evidence from medical texts and literary works alike. The Self and Its Pleasures offers a pathbreaking understanding of the boundaries between theory and history.

Abstract

In this vividly written biography, William E. Wallace offers a new view of the artist. Not only a supremely gifted sculptor, painter, architect and poet, Michelangelo was also an aristocrat who firmly believed in the ancient, noble origins of his family. The belief in his patrician status fueled his lifelong ambition to improve his family's financial situation and to raise the social standing of artists. Michelangelo's ambitions are evident in his writing, dress and comportment, as well as in his ability to befriend, influence and occasionally say 'no' to popes, kings and princes. Written from the words of Michelangelo and his contemporaries, this biography not only tells his own stories, but also brings to life the culture and society of Renaissance Florence and Rome. Not since Irving Stone's novel The Agony and the Ecstasy has there been such a compelling and human portrayal of this remarkable yet credible human individual.
