Abstract

Trois dates scandent cet ouvrage : 1684 : de l'homme de cour à l'homme de goût - date de publication en France de l'ouvrage de Baltasar Gracian, L'homme de cour. Ce sera l'énorme fortune, auprès des courtisans français, des maximes espagnoles qui disent comment se comporter en gentilhomme, sans pour autant jamais pour ainsi dire faire appel à la sagesse antique. Gracian propose un type moderne de laïc, aguerri moralement et politiquement, à la mesure des situations insidieuses de conflits guerriers entre États de même confession. 1687 : Les Abeilles et les Araignées - c'est le début de la célébrissime Querelle des Anciens et des Modernes, lorsque certains entendent prouver que l'Antiquité gréco-romaine n'a pas ignoré le conflit, réactivé par Gracian, entre tradition et nouveauté, mais l'a fait à partir d'une synthèse entre la maturation au présent et les fondations héritées du passé. Faut-il en conclure à la supériorité morale des Anciens ? 1748 : le retour à l'Antique - convaincus de leur supériorité en tous domaines sur les Anciens, les Modernes marquent aussi un retour esthétique aux Anciens, à la lumineuse simplicité de leurs styles, et lancent la " guerre du goût " dans l'Europe des Lumières. A l'origine conçu comme la reprise de trois préfaces (L'homme de cour, La Querelle des Anciens et des Modernes, Les Goûts des Anciens), l'ouvrage a évolué en cours de route vers l'étude, inédite, de la fascination moderne pour l'Antique. Connu pour son érudition joyeuse, et le plaisir pris à la communiquer, Marc Fumaroli est ici au sommet de son art.

Abstract

Le Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille abrite une exceptionnelle collection de dessins anciens provenant du legs Wicar. Né en 1762, élève de Jacques-Louis David, le peintre Jean-Baptiste Wicar vécut plus de trente ans en Italie. À sa mort, en 1834, il légua l'ensemble de sa collection de dessins à sa ville natale, Lille. Parmi ces 1300 feuilles, les plus grands maîtres sont représentés : Raphaël, Michel-Ange, Botticelli, Cranach, Dürer, Holbein ou Poussin. Pour commémorer les 250 ans de la naissance de Jean-Baptiste Wicar, le Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille présentera une sélection des deux cents plus beaux dessins de cette collection. Leur présentation exceptionnelle sera enrichie par des créations originales d'Ernest Pignon-Ernest à partir des chefs-d'œuvre choisis par l'artiste.

Abstract

Steven Tötösy de Zepetnek proposes a theoretical approximation of already established and current aspects of the disciplines of comparative literature and cultural studies. His comparative cultural studies is conceived as an approach -- to be developed eventually to a full-fledged framework -- containing at this point three areas of theoretical content: 1) To study literature (text and/or literary system) with and in the context of culture and the discipline of cultural studies; 2) In cultural studies itself to study literature with borrowed elements (theories and methods) from comparative literature; and 3) To study culture and its composite parts and aspects in the mode of the proposed "comparative cultural studies" approach instead of the currently reigning single-language approach dealing with a topic with regard to its nature and problematics in one culture only. At the same time, comparative cultural studies would implicitly and explicitly disrupt the established hierarchy of cultural products and production similarly to the disruption cultural studies itself has performed. The suggestion is to pluralize and paralellize the study of culture without hierarchization. The book presents a framework of comparative literature based on a contextual (systemic and empirical) approach for the study of culture and literature and applied in audience studies, film and literature, women's literature, translation studies, new media and scholarship in the humanities, and in the analyses of English, French, German, Austrian, Hungarian, Romanian, and English-Canadian modern, contemporary, and ethnic minority texts.

Abstract

The collected volume Companion to Comparative Literature, World Literatures, and Comparative Cultural Studies - edited by Steven Totosy de Zepetnek (Purdue University) and Tutun Mukherjee (University of Hyderabad) is intended to address the current situation of scholarship in the discipline of comparative literature and the fields of world literature and comparative cultural studies in a global context. While the discipline of comparative literature in the West appears to be losing ground in its institutional presence, in other parts of the world including Asia and Latin America, as well as in "peripheral" European countries such as Spain, Portugal, Poland, Greece, Macedonia, etc., the discipline is flourishing both in scholarship and in its institutional structure and pedagogical vitality. The field of world literatures is gaining renewed interest in US-American scholarship while the field of comparative cultural studies is a new area of study pursued by scholars who are committed to the intellectual trajectories of comparative literature - minus Eurocentrism and the nation approach - and cultural studies. 36 articles of around 6000 words each are presented in thematic groups in this volume: Part 1: Theories of Comparative Literature, World Literatures, and Comparative Cultural Studies; Part 2: Comparative Literature in World Languages (including the histories of the discipline in various countries); Part 3: Examples of New Work in Comparative Literature, World Literatures, and Comparative Cultural Studies; Part 4 is a Multilingual Bibliography of Books in Comparative Literature, World Literatures, and Comparative Cultural Studies (also available online in open access at http://docs.lib.purdue.edu/clcweblibrary/comparativeliteraturebooks). The volume is intended for students and faculty in the humanities and social sciences, as well as a general readership.
