"La poésie aujourd'hui se trouve dans une situation de liminalité par rapport aux dynamiques éditoriales et économiques et, de ce fait, l'écriture poétique constitue un champ favorable pour l'enquête littéraire, tant du point de vue des créateurs que des critiques et des lecteurs. Les poètes deviennent, ou restent, des témoins privilégiés de notre temps qu'ils ont l'opportunité de questionner tout en travaillant sur les formes et les dispositifs du dire poétique. L'attention des auteurs du présent volume se concentre sur la question de la figuration du sujet dans les textes de poètes contemporains qui oeuvrent avec la langue et qui la plient à des exigences toujours renouvelées pour exprimer leurs préoccupations qu'elles soient formelles, existentielles, sentimentales, éthiques, politiques ou philosophiques. Ce volume présente neuf études organisées en trois parties, chacune introduite par des poèmes de Jean-Patrice Courtois, Antoine Emaz et Jean-Louis Giovannoni, qui permettent une mise en regard poétique directe des travaux théoriques et des lectures proposées. Une première partie se concentre sur Les enjeux de l'énonciation poétique d'André du Bouchet à Antoine Emaz, de James Sacré à Lorand Gaspar et Jean-Louis Giovannoni. La deuxième partie, De d'énonciation à l'éthos du poète, propose une série de réflexions sur la question du sujet poétique à partir des oeuvres de Richard Rognet, Gérard Noiret, Jacques Ancet, Guy Goffette et Valérie Rouzeau. La troisième partie, enfin, s'interroge sur l'existence d'un Au-delà du sujet lyrique : littéralisme et fiction en poésie, à travers l'étude de la poésie d'Emmanuel Hocquard, Olivier Cadiot, Gherasim Luca, ou encore Antoine Emaz et Jean-Louis Giovannoni, Jean-Patrice Courtois et Emmanuel Laugier."--P.

Alexander the Great, according to Plutarch, carried on his campaigns a copy of the Iliad, kept alongside a dagger; on a more pronounced ideological level, ancient Romans looked to the Aeneid as an argument for imperialism. In this major reinterpretation of epic poetry beginning with Virgil, David Quint explores the political context and meanings of key works in Western literature. He divides the history of the genre into two political traditions: the Virgilian epics of conquest and empire that take the victors' side (the Aeneid itself, Camoes's Lusíadas, Tasso's Gerusalemme liberata) and the countervailing epic of the defeated and of republican liberty (Lucan's Pharsalia, Ercilla's Araucana, and d'Aubigné's Les tragiques). These traditions produce opposing ideas of historical narrative: a linear, teleological narrative that belongs to the imperial conquerors, and an episodic and open-ended narrative identified with "romance," the story told of and by the defeated. Quint situates Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained within these rival traditions. He extends his political analysis to the scholarly revival of medieval epic in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and to Sergei Eisenstein's epic film, Alexander Nevsky. Attending both to the topical contexts of individual poems and to the larger historical development of the epic genre, Epic and Empire provides new models for exploring the relationship between ideology and literary form.

'Ancient Greek and Semitic languages resorted to a large range of words to name the divine. Gods and goddesses were called by a variety of names and combinations of onomastic attributes. This broad lexicon of names is characterised by plurality and a tendency to build on different sequences of names; therefore, the Mapping Ancient Polytheisms project focuses on the process of naming the divine in order to better understand the ancient divine in terms of a plurality in the making. A fundamental rule for reading ancient divine names is to grasp them in their context - time and place, a ritual, the form of the discourse, a cultural milieu...: a deity is usually named according to a specific situation. From Artemis Eulochia to al-Lat, al-'Uzza and Manat, from Melqart to "my rock" in the biblical book of Psalms, this volume journeys between the sanctuary on Mount Gerizim and late antique magical practices, revisiting rituals, hymnic poetry, oaths of orators and philosophical prayers. While targeting different names in different contexts, the contributors draft theoretical propositions towards a dynamic approach of naming the divine in antiquity.'

The turn of the millennium in France coincided with a number of tangible crises and apocalyptic discourses, and with the growth of the mass media and global market, further generating and manipulating crisis. In this original, wide-ranging but closely analytical study, Cruickshank contextualizes and reads the work of four influential writers of prose fiction —- Angot, Echenoz, Houellebecq, and Redonnet —- teasing out each one's response to this convergence. She suggests that the recurrent fictional and cultural trope of the turning point has both aesthetic and critical potential. Bringing together analyses spanning literature, thought, and culture, she identifies and critiques the ways in which, on the eve of the twenty-first century, different theoretical and fictional approaches confront the manipulation of crisis discourses. Drawing on a 'long twentieth century' of crisis thinking, Cruickshank counters the perception that a postmodern model of perpetual crisis is culturally dominant, and establ

The study of French culture has long ceased to be purely centred on literature. Undergraduate French courses now embrace all forms of cultural production and consumption, and students need to have a broad knowledge of everything from day-time TV and the latest detective novels to debates about national identity and immigration policies. This stimulating text is an introduction to the full range of contemporary French culture. Written by a group of leading academics both within and outside France, each chapter focuses on a topic from the French cultural scene today. Starting with an overview of resources for further information (both in print and online), the text discusses the varied forms of French cultural expression and looks critically at what 'Frenchness' itself means. The book also explores examples of cultural production ranging from sport, media and literature to theatre, cinema, festivals and music. An essential resource for students and scholars alike, this text provides detailed material and analysis, as well as a launch-pad for further study.
