Abstract

Abstract:This article is a close reading of the fausse phthisie ruse in Stendhal's Lamiel. It examines the scene in the 1840 version of the manuscript in which Lamiel and Doctor Sansfin fake the symptoms of tuberculosis using the blood of a dead bird. In the first instance, this article analyses the novel's motif of the dead bird by using Jean-Baptiste Greuze's Jeune fille qui pleure son oiseau mort (1765) and Denis Diderot's Salon de 1765 as intertexts revealing the quasi-incestuous dimension of the fausse phthisie scene. In the second instance, it demonstrates how Lamiel charts the eponymous heroine's physiological progression through puberty via its use of the terms petite and jeune fille. Ultimately, this article argues that Lamiel's personal and sexual freedom is intimately connected to her subversion of both the visual iconography and the medical discourse of the jeune fille.

“不为死鸟哭泣的女孩”:斯坦达尔Lamiel的女性青春期

摘要:本文是对司汤达的《拉梅尔》中“虚情假意的诡计”的细读。它检查了1840年版本手稿中的场景，其中拉米尔和桑芬医生用一只死鸟的血假装肺结核的症状。本文首先以格鲁兹的《年轻时的快乐》(1765)和狄德罗的《1765年的沙龙》(1765)为互文，分析了小说中“死鸟”的母旨，揭示了小说中“乱伦”的场景。在第二个例子中，它展示了拉米尔是如何通过使用“娇小”和“充满青春”这两个词来描绘女主角在青春期的生理进程的。最后，本文认为，拉米尔的个人自由和性自由与她对视觉图像学和青年医学话语的颠覆密切相关。
