Abstract

Si les rêves de cité idéale, des plus réalistes aux plus extravagants, ont séduit de nombreux hommes et femmes et donné sens à leur vie, parfois jusqu'au sacrifice de leur vie, d'aucuns n'ont pas manqué de faire opposer que la nature humaine et les contraintes historiques ou culturelles ont constitué et constituent autant d'obstacles à leur mise en oeuvre. Et que finalement, comme le relève le philosophe Jacques Rancière, tout projet utopique "inclut l'échec comme donnée toujours vérifiée par avance". Le lecteur trouvera ici les actes d'un colloque international et interdisciplinaire consacré à ces sceptiques, détracteurs et "anti-utopistes" qui n'ont pas manqué de stigmatiser les imperfections et les carences inhérentes, à leurs yeux, aux projets qui avaient la prétention d'assurer la félicité générale. Les communications portent sur des formes de nature extrême¬ment diverse: fiction romanesque, aphorisme, discours philoso¬phique, politique ou religieux, pamphlet, texte journalistique ou programmatique, poésie, théâtre, opéra, essai, peinture.Marita Gilli, Professeur émérite d'Allemand, est spécialiste de l'influence des Lumières et de la Révolution dans les pays germaniques. Elle a co-fondé en 1967 l'unité de recherches interdisciplinaire "Littérature et histoire des pays de langues européennes", qu'elle a dirigée jusqu'en 1981.

Abstract

In his book Archaeologies of the Future: The Desire Called Utopia and Other Science Fictions (2007), Fredric Jameson analyzes the multiple components of utopia and the possibility of achieving utopia in the near future. As this book argues, however, human civilization will never achieve utopia unless humans reach a state of pure consciousness in which they will use their full mental potential and avoid making blunders in life that would undermine the possibility of a utopia. This book develops a non-teleological, comparative poetics between Western and Sanskrit literary traditions by analyzing their opposing theories of language, consciousness and meaning. This comparison seeks to demonstrate the complementary nature of their two perspectives: the objective, conceptual emphasis of contemporary Western theory; and the subjective experiential emphasis of Sanskrit poetics. The potential contribution to the West of Indian culture in general, and Sanskrit poetics in particular, centers on the phenomenon of direct experience. Without the direct experience of pure consciousness, humans will not achieve a state of utopia because they will remain entangled in materialism without access to idealism or spiritualism available only through the direct experience of the unity of pure consciousness or the void of conceptions.

Abstract

In Hundred Days’ Literature , Lorenzo Andolfatto explores the landscape of early modern Chinese fiction through the lens of the utopian novel, casting new light on some of its most peculiar yet often overshadowed literary specimens. The wutuobang or lixiang xiaoshuo , by virtue of its ideally totalizing perspective, provides a one-of-a-kind critical tool for the understanding of late imperial China’s fragmented Zeitgeist . Building upon rigorous close reading and solid theoretical foundations, Hundred Days’ Literature offers the reader a transcultural critical itinerary that links Edward Bellamy’s Looking Backward to Wu Jianren’s Xin Shitou ji via the writings of Liang Qichao, Chen Tianhua, Bihe Guanzhuren, and Lu Shi’e. The book also includes the first English translation of Cai Yuanpei’s short story “New Year’s Dream.”
