L’interprétation n’aurait-elle pas besoin des émotions ? Ce livre répond à cette question par une série d’études sur l’articulation entre l’expérience esthétique et l’activité herméneutique dans des œuvres des XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Si le corps et l’interprétation ont longtemps été placés dans un rapport d’exclusion, une partie de la pensée philosophique et critique a récemment proposé de repenser une continuité entre la réception sensible et l’élaboration du sens. La période qui s’étend de la Renaissance aux Lumières nous aide à le faire, parce qu’avant l’autonomisation de la sphère esthétique, une œuvre ou une pratique esthétique ne sont jamais pensées hors de leurs effets sur leurs destinataires. Les études réunies dans ce volume invitent à repenser en profondeur l’expérience esthétique, qui se reformule plus exactement en relation esthétique : l’objet à interpréter n’est pas tant l’œuvre que la réaction, l’affection, du corps face à l’œuvre, ou la relation que le lecteur/spectateur établit avec l’œuvre. C’est en fonction de cette interprétation seconde que l’on pourra décider du sens – ou de l’un des sens possibles – de l’œuvre. On voit ainsi apparaître des manières différentes d’engager l’expérience sensible dans l’interprétation, ce qui nous importe à la fois comme pédagogues, dans nos pratiques de transmissions, comme chercheurs, pour comprendre comment opère l’élaboration du sens, mais aussi comme spectateurs, dans l’appréhension des œuvres d’art qui nous entourent.

"Falling into Matter examines the complex role of the body in the development of the English novel in the eighteenth century. Elizabeth R. Napier argues that despite an increasing emphasis on the need to present ideas in corporeal terms, early fiction writers continued to register spiritual and moral reservations about the centrality of the body to human and imaginative experience. Drawing on six works of early English fiction--Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Samuel Richardson's Clarissa, Henry Fielding's Tom Jones, Elizabeth Inchbald's A Simple Story, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein--Napier examines how authors grappled with technical and philosophical issues of the body, questioning its capacity for moral action, its relationship to individual freedom and dignity, and its role in the creation of art. Falling into Matter charts the course of the early novel as its authors engaged formally, stylistically, and thematically with the increasingly insistent role of the body in the new genre."--Jacket

Early Christian apocryphal and conical documents present us with grotesque images of the human body, often combining the playful and humorous with the repulsive, and fearful. First to third century Christian literature was shaped by the discourse around and imagery of the human body. This study analyses how the iconography of bodily cruelty and visceral morality was produced and refined from the very start of Christian history. The sources range across Greek comedy, Roman and Jewish demonology, and metamorphosis traditions. The study reveals how these images originated, were adopted, and were shaped to the service of a doctrinally and psychologically persuasive Christian message.

Les différents articles présentés dans cet ouvrage mettent en lumière la dimension corporelle du livre. Toutefois, les analyses développées dans Le Livre au corps ne se contentent pas de l’analogie qui associe le corps à l’objet-livre à travers les mots d’un vocabulaire commun à l’instar de ceux de tête, pied, dos, nerfs… Loin d’un anthropomorphisme manifeste, aisément repérable et vite accessible, le projet de ce livre est surtout de mettre au jour la profondeur de liens sensibles et l’articulation de rapports visibles et invisibles entre le livre et le corps dans l’histoire - au Moyen Âge, à la Renaissance - mais aussi dans leur propre production et reproduction artistique autonome. Qu’il soit un objet investi d’esprit ou immédiatement un corps selon Edmund Husserl ou une modalité de notre être selon Emmanuel Lévinas, le livre n’est rien sans son lecteur dont il révèle la corporéité sensible, le livre étant lui-même une forme d’incarnation de l’œœuvre et une mise en œœuvre du corps dans l’acte de lecture. Avec Henri Michaux, Saint-John Perse ou encore Wols, Le Livre au corps montre que le corps comme le livre sont saisis par une poétique de leur génération ou de leur engendrement réciproque.

Revealing Bodies considers three thinkers not often read together in order to ask a question with continued relevance in the present: how is it that we claim to know the body? Reading their work in relation to their contemporary anatomical discourse as well as our own contemporary anatomical spectacle, the book explores a question with wide-ranging stakes both for those with specialized interest in eighteenth and nineteenth-century culture and with a broader interest in bodily representation.
