{"title":"An Epicurean Farewell: Saint-Évremond, Lucretius, and the Godolphin Manuscript","authors":"Anna L. Nicholson","doi":"10.1093/fs/knab131","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/fs/knab131","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:This article examines the religious beliefs and writings of the French exile Charles de Saint-Évremond in light of the corrections that he made to his works in the final months of his life. These corrections provide significant emphases and nuances to Saint-Évremond's view on death and salvation at a time when he could not ignore his own advancing years. Yet, while the corrections might appear to 'clarify' his views, they also embody the author's particular brand of Epicureanism, which is underpinned by the continuous metamorphosis of body and mind. In this way, Saint-Évremond's revisions showcase his final views on the afterlife at the very moment that he anticipated his own death and imagined his own posterity. With this focus on the writings of Saint-Évremond, this article considers the dual notion of 'the afterlife', that is to say, the spiritual afterlife and the literary afterlife. Drawing on early modern ideas about death and posterity, this study reveals how Saint-Évremond grappled with the uncertainty of the spiritual afterlife whilst hoping for a literary afterlife in his attempt to bequeath an 'authoritative edition' of his writings to future generations.Abstract:L'article examine les croyances et oeuvres religieuses de l'exilé français Charles de Saint-Évremond au regard des corrections qu'il apporta à ses écrits pendant les dernières années de sa vie. Ces corrections nuancent et mettent l'accent sur ses réflexions sur la mort et sur le salut à un moment où Saint-Évremond ne pouvait ignorer son âge avancé. Pourtant, bien que les corrections puissent sembler 'clarifier' ses opinions, elles sont aussi représentatives d'un genre particulier d'épicurisme adopté par l'auteur ce qui souligne la métamorphose continuelle du corps et de l'esprit. Ainsi, les révisions de Saint-Évremond révèlent ses réflexions finales sur le salut à une période où il s'attendait à mourir et imaginait sa postérité. Tout en se concentrant sur les oeuvres de Saint-Évremond, l'article aborde la double idée de 'la vie après la mort', c'est-à-dire, la vie spirituelle après la mort et la vie des oeuvres littéraires après le décès de l'auteur. Dans le contexte des pensées sur la mort et la postérité au dix-septième siècle, cette étude révèle comment Saint-Évremond faisait face à l'incertitude de la vie spirituelle après la mort alors qu'il aspirait à une postérité littéraire en essayant de léguer une 'édition autorisée' de ses oeuvres aux générations futures.","PeriodicalId":332929,"journal":{"name":"French Studies: A Quarterly Review","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130622143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article aims to answer this question by examining the thematic and formal similarities between the texts of our corpus. The main hypothesis is that our understanding of these texts depends on their being read together. The article consists of three parts: the first, focused on the study of the sources, shows that the dispositio and completeness of the ABC provide a dynamic and ornamental frame for prayer. The ABC becomes a path, both narrative and moral, that the reader can follow to reach the divinity. The second part analyses the French poems, all dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and highlights the formulas and features they have in common. In the third part, the influence of the ABC poems on French medieval literature is examined through the fragmentation and dissemination of their stylistic features and symbolic meanings in other texts and genres. The article concludes that the ABC poems of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries form a homogeneous corpus that was to prove influential on French literary production.","PeriodicalId":332929,"journal":{"name":"French Studies: A Quarterly Review","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130357367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Unearthing the Subtext of Slavery in Zola's Germinal","authors":"Doyle Calhoun","doi":"10.1093/FS/KNAB099","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/FS/KNAB099","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:On the surface, Zola's Germinal (1885) has little to say about France's non-European 'others', despite the facts that the coal industry and late-nineteenthcentury imperial expansion were linked and the rise of the beet-sugar industry in Europe led to the eventual call for labourers of colour in France. Nonetheless, the subtexts of colonialism and slavery surface in the text via the tropes of colonial metaphor and metonymy. When Zola suggests the material oppression of his miners is 'like' the suffering of enslaved and colonized peoples, he is participating in a nineteenth-century rhetorical tradition shared by both the realist novel and French socialist discourse: one that frequently analogized the subjugation of France's wage labourers to the abject suffering of its colonial subjects. The presence in the novel of colonial products and exotic goods points synecdochically to France's colonies and their systems of exploitative labour even as those objects circulate within metropolitan milieus. This essay excavates the colonial referents of Germinal, examining how the novel represents domestic and colonial servitude within a single novelistic 'economy'.Abstract:Au premier abord, Germinal (1885) n'a que peu de chose à voir avec les 'Autres' non-européens de la France, alors même que l'industrie charbonnière et l'expansion impériale entretenaient des liens étroits à la fin du dix-neuvième siècle et que l'industrie sucrière, en plein essor, a pu faire appel à des hommes libres de couleur pour venir travailler en Europe ou en France. Cependant, le sous-texte de l'esclavage colonial transparaît dans le texte 'métropolitain', notamment par le biais de la métaphore et de la métonymie coloniales. Lorsque Zola suggère que l'oppression des mineurs ressemble à la souffrance des peuples asservis et colonisés, il s'appuie par exemple sur une tradition rhétorique emblématique du dix-neuvième siècle, qui, partagée à la fois par le roman réaliste et le discours socialiste en France, a contribué à établir et diffuser une analogie entre l'assujettissement des travailleurs en France et l'oppression des peuples colonisés. Au sujet de la métonymie, la présence dans le roman de produits coloniaux et exotiques, qui circulent et sont consommés en métropole—à l'exemple du café —, renvoie aux colonies françaises et à leur système d'exploitation. Aussi, cet article cherche à examiner comment Germinal parvient à représenter et à réunir les modalités de la servitude domestique et coloniale au sein d'une seule 'économie' textuelle et romanesque.","PeriodicalId":332929,"journal":{"name":"French Studies: A Quarterly Review","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122943149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
