Semiotics and the modern Quebec novel

Paul Perron

Dependent title
a Greimassian analysis of Thériault's Agaguk

Literature University of Toronto Press 0802009263 Available

View details

Annotation: The most popular novel in Quebec since the Second World War, Yves Theriault's Agaguk was published just before the Quiet Revolution, a period of major political and cultural transformation that radically altered Quebec society at the beginning of the 1960s. In this original socio-semiotic reading of the novel in translation, inspired by A.J. Greimas and the Paris School of Semiotics, Paul Perron examines the Inuit setting and characters of Agaguk as metaphors for Quebec society. Semiotics and the Modern Quebec Novel is one of the few semiotic analyses to deal with an entire novel, and illustrates the heuristic value of this complex methodology with respect to long prose texts in English.

Towards a 'Natural' Narratology

Monika Fludernik

Literature Routledge 0415124824 Available

View details

Annotation: In this ground breaking work of synthesis, Monika Fludernik combines insights from literary theory and linguistics to provide a challenging new theory of narrative. This book is both an historical survey and theoretical study, with the author drawing on an enormous range of examples from the earliest oral study to contemporary experimental fiction. She uses these examples to prove that recent literature, far from heralding the final collapse of narrative, represents the epitome of a centuries long developmental process.

Contexts of Pre-Novel Narrative

edited by Roy Eriksen

Literature Mouton de Gruyter 3110138832 Available

View details

Other title information: The European Tradition

Annotation: While being concerned with the theory and forms of early narrative, the present collection of essays presents a history of narrative rather than poetics of narrative. Rather than offering to write a coherent narrative about the historical development of narrative before " the rise of the novel", the volume presents stages in the development towards that elusive and unstable form of narrative, giving the reader what in another context has been referred to as an "exemplary history" (Reed 1981) of narrative.

This recognizes that materialist criticism may embrace techniques borrowed from psychoanalytic, feminist, Marxian, and historicist criticisms. It employs materialist criticism to broaden and strengthen our understanding of what constitutes a 'cultural artifact' and how such artifacts function.

Le pouvoir comme passion

Anne Hénault

Literature Presses universitaires de France 2130465412 Available

View details

Notes: Together with a debate between Algirdas J. Greimas and Paul Ricœur that happened in 23.05.1989.

Annotation: Nous savons déchiffrer un propos que répresente de la passion mais savons-nous reconnaître un texte que manifeste de la passion sans la transcrite? La recherche sémiotique était parvenue à un point où il lui était absilumnet nécessaire de pouvoir observer cette inscription directe du vécu, du sensible dans la trame, d'un discours donné. L'expérience la plus pure consitait à partir d'un texte émotionnellement plat, dans son écriture, et cependant captateur, pour démontrer ce qu le travaillait en sous-main,nune qualité de présence qui pertubait le texte et le troublait en profondeur, alors qu'elle était insignifiée au niveau proprement linguistique: Le pouvouir comme passion est la première expérience de mise en évidence de phénomènes discursifs inarticuláres. We know how to decipher a statement that represents passion, but do we know how to recognize a text that manifests passion without transcribing it? Semiotic research had reached a point where it was absolutely necessary to be able to observe this direct inscription of the lived, of the sensitive in the framework of a given discourse. The purest experience consisted of starting from an emotionally flat text, in its writing, and yet captivating, to demonstrate what was working on it behind the scenes, a quality of presence that disturbed the text and troubled it deeply, while it was insignificant at the strictly linguistic level: Power as passion is the first experience of highlighting inarticulate discursive phenomena.
