TL;DR: Although Wittgenstein in a study on philosophy and literature as discussed by the authors quotes in an apparently derogatory manner a line from Goethe's "Metamorphosis of Plants" (« And so the choir hints a secret law ») so as to illustrate the rationalistic positivism of Frazer's approach to facts, there are striking similarities between Goethe and W.
Abstract: Although Wittgenstein in a study on philosophy and literature, "Remarks on Frazer's Golden Bough", quotes in an apparently derogatory manner a line from Goethe's "Metamorphosis of Plants" (« And so the choir hints a secret law ») so as to illustrate the rationalistic positivism of Frazer's approach to facts, there are striking similarities between Goethe and Wittgenstein' s positions towards knowledge.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The authors traces the emergence in Sand's work, following her meeting with Pierre Leroux in 1835, of the problematics of the proletariat as subject or hero, as author (through Sand's defense of and friendship with worker poets), as audience and as political agent.
Abstract: This study traces the emergence in Sand's work, following her meeting with Pierre Leroux in 1835, of the problematics of the proletariat as subject or hero, as author (through Sand's defense of and friendship with worker-poets), as audience and as political agent. Sand doesn't solve « la question sociale » but explores in fiction modalities of access to « voices of our own » for the people.

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship of Baudelaire to the figure and his works is explored from a first encounter in 1883 through to Nietzsche's breakdown. But the relationship is not discussed in detail.
Abstract: This study deals with the relationship of Nietzsche to Baudelaire — the figure and his works — from a « first » encounter in 1883 through to Nietzsche's breakdown. Nietzsche's passionate ambivalence to a figure in which he recognised an alter-ego is traced, in posthumous texts and major works, through the themes of decadence, Wagnerism, French vs German culture, and aesthetic theory.

TL;DR: The principle of Caillois's Esthetique generalisee is that all in nature is beautiful, in the subject's absence ; but the system is haunted by the ghost of the excluded subject.
Abstract: The principle of Caillois's Esthetique generalisee is that all in nature is beautiful, in the subject's absence ; but the system is haunted by the ghost of the excluded subject. Caillois's fascination, in his texts on minerals, with the « quarte-fantome », which carries its own image en abyme within itself, is symptomatic of the fantasm at the heart of his generalised aesthetics — and at the heart of the modern extension of the aesthetic relation.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The link between literature and philosophy in German idealism works itself out through and in language and through a renewal of the understanding of language exemplified in Humboldfs "Einleitung zur Kawi-werk", where language is theorised as the means for and locus of the Kantian synthesis.
Abstract: Bildung and « linguistic sense »: Wilhem von Humboldt. The link between literature and philosophy in German idealism works itself out through and in language and through a renewal of the understanding of language exemplified in Humboldfs "Einleitung zur Kawi-werk", where language is theorised as the means for and locus of the Kantian synthesis, while the temporal dimension of language dynamises the Kantian system.

TL;DR: In this article, a chansonnier montmartrois supposes that quelques lecteurs bien imbeciles se sont goures a sujet, that les dits ont cru y voir une attitude voyoue.
Abstract: [12] A ce point de notre recherche, nous pouvons (et nous devons) nous estimer satisfaits des resultats obtenus. Nous avons reussi a creer des problemes la ou il n'y en avait pas, ce qui est eminemment philosophique, et, de plus, nous nous acharnons avec tant d'emphase a ne les point resoudre et a bien en embrouiller les donnees que nous devons etre certainement sur le point d'atteindre a la veritable ampleur philosophique 1. Je ne « crois » pas un mot de ce dernier paragraphe ; j'espere que quelques lecteurs bien imbeciles se sont goures a ce sujet, que les dits ont cru y voir une attitude voyoue. Non. Non. Non. A supposer que je pensassasse un traitre mot de ces quelques phrases a l'allure spirituelle a peine dignes2 d'un chansonnier montmartrois, a supposer dis-je qu'elles fussent ecrites de confiance, en sincerite, valablement, pour son auteur, elles ne deceleraient chez le dit aucune inclination vers le mode d'etre

TL;DR: In this article, the story of the young female beggar, inserted in the "Vice Consul", is a pseudo-myth of origins: there is no goal for her to attain.
Abstract: A quest of origins? Identity and spatial displacement in Marguerite Duras' "Vice-consul". The story of the young female beggar, inserted in the "Vice-Consul", is a pseudo-myth of origins: there is no goal for her to attain. But when she has ceased to move she is absorbed back into an « origin » as she disappears into the Ganges. She is then the ideal prey for the imaginary of the men in the "Vice- Consul", who comment on her story as if the story of a beggar had to be the myth of the origins of women.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The oxymoronic form of Sceve's Delie demonstrates how the destructive confrontation of contrary forces can liberate the creative energy of words as discussed by the authors, and the oxymoron enacts stupor and silence, themselves contradicted by the movement of the text and the use of words.
Abstract: The oxymoronic form of Sceve's Delie demonstrates how the destructive confrontation of contrary forces can liberate the creative energy of words. The oxymoron enacts stupor and silence, themselves contradicted by the movement of the text and theuse of words, in anoxy moron which reveals the secret of the form. The figure of Delie, or the work of language to catch l'Idee, lost in that movement, and music in Sceve's poetry, redouble the structure.
