Abstract

Dans L'Elaboration du mythe de soi Solveig Hudhomme démontre comment les oeuvres de Samuel Beckett construisent leur propre mythe, mythe d'un espace, d'une intériorité permanente par-delà les frontières textuelles. Cette intériorité, ce que l'on peut appeler 'le soi', est un lieu affranchi du biographique, du 'moi', mais peuplé d'invariants. Cette étude se concentre sur la façon dont les histoires introduisent un principe de répétition et de reconnaissance, reconnaissance d'un lieu, d'une trame, d'un personnage. Dans l'ordre du récit, la contingence laisse place à la nécessité. In L'Elaboration du mythe du soi Solveig Hudhomme highlights how Samuel Beckett’s works build a myth of their own, the myth of a space, a permanent inner space going beyond the textual boundaries. This inner place, 'the self' as we can call it, is a place liberated from biography, from the « ego » but also a place in which some invariants can be found. This study focuses on the way stories introduce a principle of repetition so that the reader can recognize a place, a narrative, a character. As the story develops, contingency slowly grows into necessity.

Abstract

Northern Europe and North America have dominated the world stage for more than two centuries. Using a wide range of sources, this book provides the first coherent account from a multi-national perspective of the ideas and perceptions that, from the Renaissance onwards, fuelled the North’s rise to prominence, and enabled it to rival the traditional cultural and political hegemony of the South. This includes not only the fascinating conquest of the polar regions, but also the religious upheaval of the Reformation, the changing view of nature engendered by Romanticism, and, not least, the revival of ancient Nordic and Celtic culture. Finally, the book offers an indispensable historical background to current events in the Far North, where the past and the future meet in a complex web of dramatic environmental concerns, the exploitation of natural resources, and the strategies of politics and commerce.
