Abstract

Pourquoi le roman contemporain évoque-t-il des épidémies quasiment éradiquées en Occident (peste, choléra, variole, diphtérie) ? Comment lire ces récits d'épidémie ? Que révèlent-ils sur la fin du XXe siècle? L'ouvrage se propose de réévaluer La Peste de Camus : sa réinscription dans une « bibliothèque de l'épidémie » révèle sa dimension fondatrice sur le plan éthique et esthétique. À des degrés divers, les récits d'épidémie de Gabriel García Márquez, José Saramago, André Brink, Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio et Stewart O'Nan entrent en résonance avec le roman de 1947.

Abstract

Les auteurs français de la Renaissance, tels Clément Marot, François Rabelais, Montaigne, perpétuent et font évoluer un corpus de représentations de la peste en mêlant imitation et invention et en se mettant souvent en scène comme des survivants des épidémies. Le récit de peste devient un genre littéraire codifié.

Abstract

Nowadays, more and more people realize the importance of global sustainability. Also, there has been an increasing number of quantitative studies investigating the connection between climate change and human societies in academia. Given this background, the Atmosphere Special Issue “Climate Change, Climatic Extremes, and Human Societies in the Past” aimed to highlight the major aspects of the climate-society nexus in ancient and recent human history. There are eight papers based on quantitative approaches to illustrate different forms of climate-society nexus in ancient, historical, and contemporary periods. Regarding ancient periods, the interconnection among climate, agriculture, and human societies is focused. Regarding historical periods, the non-linear and complex relationship between climate change and the positive checks (wars, famines, and epidemics) in historical China and pre-industrial Europe is revealed. Regarding contemporary periods, the papers focus on weather-related phenomena that significantly affect human societies. The complexity of those phenomena is also highlighted. The associated findings can help human societies to mitigate the adverse impacts of weather extremes better. This special issue contributes to the field of quantitative analysis of the climate-society nexus, both theoretically and methodologically, which could facilitate a more fruitful discussion about the climate-society nexus.
