De Jean de Léry a Claude Lévi-Strauss: por uma arqueologia de Tristes trópicos

A comparação entre a História de Duas Viagens ao Brasil, de Jean de Léry, e Tristes trópicos, de Claude Lévi-Strauss, mostra entre os autores e suas narrativas acerca do Brasil numerosos paralelos. No modo de se relacionar com o Brasil, na descrição dos índios, na própria forma de construir seu texto, Léry aparece como um predecessor de Lévi-Strauss. Mais do que retomar a narrativa de Léry, Lévi-Strauss estabelece com ela um diálogo, no qual se pode também perceber as divergências de ponto de vista entre os autores, envoltas nas lembranças nostálgicas de ambos de suas estadas no Novo Mundo.

Vraisemblance et 'illusion auctoriale' dans le roman contemporain

Les romans contemporains – dont ceux de Jean Echenoz et de Jean-Philippe Toussaint – attirent constamment l'attention sur le caractère construit et artificiel du récit et ont recours à des procédés de réécriture qui fonctionnent comme des clins d'oeil au lecteur, chez qui ils produisent une sensation de complicité avec l'auteur. L'accent y est donc mis sur la présence de l'autorité romanesque plutôt que sur le caractère vraisemblable du monde fictionnel: c'est cette voix qui s'adresse directement au lecteur et la situation d'énonciation qui deviennent vraisemblables et qui assurent ce que l'on appellera une "illusion auctoriale", c'est-à-dire une croyance en un contact ou une relation directe entre lecteur et auteur.

14, de Jean Echenoz, un récit de guerre à l’épreuve du pathos

14 is a recently published novel by a French contemporary writer, Jean Echenoz. Having the First World War as its core subject, the text covers the main traditional themes of war novels. Its interest, however, does not lie in what it says about the war, but rather in how the war is told. In fact, 14 points out the main horrors of the war, without engaging in pathos. In order to do so, Echenoz resorts to two groups of techniques, whose main purpose is to lighten the dramatic effect of the war scenes depicted. Surprisingly, the result is a text which recounts the crude horrors of war.
