Ce florilège de textes publiés par Bernard Bray entre 1975 et 2010 montre comment depuis la Renaissance les manuels épistolaires ont pu donner naissance à de véritables romans par lettres, d’Étienne Pasquier à Colette en passant par Laclos, contribuant ainsi au développement du je en littérature.

"First-person poetry is a familiar genre in Latin literature. Building on the Greek poetic tradition of performed poetry, Latin poets such as Propertius, Catullus, Horace, and Ovid positioned their speakers both as participants in the poem's narrative and as narrators standing outside the poem and shaping its discourse. This book offers a model for understanding the ubiquitous use of a first-person voice in Latin poetry, taking on several of the central debates in the field of Latin literary studies-- including the inheritance of the Greek tradition, the shift from oral performance to written collections, and the status of the poetic "I-voice"--through close readings of Catullus, Propertius, Horace, and (in the epilogue) Ovid. Moving beyond debates about how closely the textual speaker replicates the historical author, McCarthy analyzes poetic structure, showing how the poet draws the reader in by narrating scenes of address from which the reader is, paradoxically excluded, as if leaning in to listen to an overheard conversation"--

Some of the most pressing contemporary issues (ecological crisis, migration and integration, fragmented worldviews, social media, fake news, extremist politics and terrorism) can be understood more profoundly through how they interact with both individual and collective forces of nostalgia. Nostalgia is politics, but these politics are also interwoven with media and culture. Notwithstanding how nostalgia is used or contextualized in terms of politics and social practices, commodification or personal development, its power is primarily situated within its efficacy as a governing, influential human emotion. The vast and luminous contributions to this special issue on contemporary nostalgia are all investigating the role different aesthetic media formats (film, music, literature, computer games) plays in nostalgic negotiations with style, history, migration, love, nationalism, diaspora, irony, modernity, colonial and postcolonial discourses, and adoption. Mutually, these essays stand out as important, original, critical contributions to the expanding field of nostalgia studies and offer a valued insight on our world.
