    Le thème de la dette est omniprésent au sein de la littérature latine, qu'elle réponde au genre historique ou poursuive des fins morales. Les crises sociales devant le poids de l'endettement et les crises politiques alimentées par le spectre toujours menaçant de l'abolition des dettes ponctuent l'histoire de Rome. Marina Ioannatou a centré son étude sur un milieu spécifique : exploitant le corpus épistolaire de Cicéron, elle a privilégié les circuits complexes de l'argent au sein de l'aristocratie. D'où viennent les fortunes disponibles? Pour quels besoins - ceux d'une carrière politique ou pour éteindre une dette de reconnaissance - les patrimoines des prêteurs sont-ils mis à contribution? Dans une étude très neuve attachée à dégager les traits d'une mentalité aristocratique, les points les plus originaux touchent à la notion de prêts d'amitié (prêts gratuits entre gens du même monde), à celle de dette de reconnaissance, destinée soit à éteindre, en concédant un prêt, un service ancien, soit, inversement, à grever l'emprunteur d'un devoir de reconnaissance, voire de fidélité. Le prêt trouve ainsi sa place dans la constitution des solidarités aristocratiques. Les modes de restitution obéissent à un véritable "code de l'honneur", dont l'auteur, prématurément disparu, a reconstitué avec bonheur les grands principes.

    "There is no doubt that the beginning of the twenty-first century was marked by crises of debt. Less well known is that literature played a historical role in defining and teaching debt to the public. Promissory Notes: On the Literary Conditions of Debt addresses how neoliberal finance has depended upon a historical linking of geopolitical inequality and financial representation that positions the so-called 'Third World' as negative value, or debt. Starting with an analysis of Anthony Trollope's novel, The Eustace Diamonds, Goodman shows how colonized spaces came to inhabit this negative value. Promissory Notes argues that the twentieth-century continues to apply literary innovations in character, subjectivity, temporal and spatial representation to construct debt as the negative creation of value not only in reference to objects, but also houses, credit cards, students, and, in particular,'Third World' geographies, often leading to crisis. Yet, late twentieth century and early twenty-first literary texts, such as Soyinka's The Road and Ngugi's Wizard of the Crow, address the negative space of the indebted world also as a critique of the financial take-over of the postcolonial developmental state. Looking to situations like the Puerto Rican debt crisis, Goodman demonstrates how financial discourse is articulated through social inequalities and how literature can both expose and contest the imposition of a morality of debt as a mode of anti-democratic control." -- Title screen 1. Futures and fictions : the right to make promises and the object that never was -- 2. Debt's geographies : inequality, or development's dance with dead capital.

    David conducts an office romance by e-mail. He has love at his fingertips. But a shocking admission unravels his relationship piece by chilling piece. Jess loves David. She believes happiness can be bought--but it doesn't come cheap in a world of easy credit. Jess and David's ideal blend of love and money is killing them. Funny but heart wrenching, this ingenious drama dares us to enter a dislocated world of bad debts and even worse desires. Love and Money opened at the Manchester Royal Exchange in October 2006 with a transfer to the Young Vic, London.

    "There is no doubt that the beginning of the twenty-first century was marked by crises of debt. Less well known is that literature played a historical role in defining and teaching debt to the public. Promissory Notes: On the Literary Conditions of Debt addresses how neoliberal finance has depended upon a historical linking of geopolitical inequality and financial representation that positions the so-called 'Third World' as negative value, or debt. Starting with an analysis of Anthony Trollope's novel, The Eustace Diamonds, Goodman shows how colonized spaces came to inhabit this negative value. Promissory Notes argues that the twentieth-century continues to apply literary innovations in character, subjectivity, temporal and spatial representation to construct debt as the negative creation of value not only in reference to objects, but also houses, credit cards, students, and, in particular,'Third World' geographies, often leading to crisis. Yet, late twentieth century and early twenty-first literary texts, such as Soyinka's The Road and Ngugi's Wizard of the Crow, address the negative space of the indebted world also as a critique of the financial take-over of the postcolonial developmental state. Looking to situations like the Puerto Rican debt crisis, Goodman demonstrates how financial discourse is articulated through social inequalities and how literature can both expose and contest the imposition of a morality of debt as a mode of anti-democratic control." -- Title screen 1. Futures and fictions : the right to make promises and the object that never was -- 2. Debt's geographies : inequality, or development's dance with dead capital.

    The article examines the questions of guilt and debt in the Hungarian poetry of the late modern period, notably in the poetry of Attila József. An important characteristic of the concept of guilt in the modern era is that it unites the question of morality with that of the economy. This connection is confirmed by a current problem in the field of cultural studies: The German terms Schuld (guilt) and Schulden (debt) are viewed by recent cultural history research as significant driving forces and preconditions for cultural processes (both relate to shortages and errors which must be remedied, evened out, effaced or indeed generated or multiplied) which give rise to social and historical ties and determinations. This research attempts to formulate cultural strategies and solutions for dealing with the problem of unrestrained growth and the moralisation of debt. My article examines these issues as a problem of language (the language of poetry). Whilst Attila József ’s poetry does address the need to search for opportunities to forgive—both morally and financially—and to break the determining ties of moral and financial indebtedness, József believes this is only possible by implementing a certain manner of speech or a type of language whose forgiveness of debt and guilt alike as well as its liberating effect cannot be achieved by strategies, methods or practices.
