    "Il est des criminelles. Le constat seul mérite d'être rappelé, tant le crime semble parfois supposer le seul criminel. Les criminelles, nous en parlons, et ne cessons même d'en parler, jouant avec le fait divers comme avec les règles de la fiction, avec le récit comme avec le témoignage, avec la lettre comme avec l'image, dans la vie et sur la scène, renouvelant chaque fois nos hésitations et nos incertitudes : de nos criminelles, que faire et que dire? Car si notre culture des criminels s'appuie sur une sociologie qui assoit la place des hommes dans un crime devenu, chez Émile Durkheim, un 'phénomène normal', cette même sociologie rappelle depuis qu'elle s'y intéresse la sous-représentation des femmes au sein de la population criminelle. Ce régime d'exception n'empêche pas la multiplicité de figures désormais canoniques, de l'empoisonneuse à la femme fatale en passant par la faiseuse d'anges. La criminelle, aussi absente que protéiforme, occupe ainsi un champ à l'intersection du désir, de la transgression et du fantasme, favorisant la rencontre entre les lectures traditionnelles du féminin et les relectures renouvelées tant par le prisme du crime que par celui des théories du genre et des féminismes. La criminelle permet donc tout à la fois de penser le crime par le genre et d'interroger le genre dans le crime. Tel est l'élément structurant du présent ouvrage qui, tant dans la littérature que dans le cinéma, les arts de la scène ou la sociologie, s'engage sur les traces de personnages par lesquels une société se dédit, contredit ses discours, et se plaît à relativiser ses normes."--Back cover

    Criminals as Animals demonstrates how animal metaphors have been used to denigrate persons identified as criminal in literature, law, and science. It traces the popularization of the 'criminal beast' metaphor in the late 16th century, the troubling of the trope during the long 18th century, and the later discovery of criminal atavism. It concludes that criminal-animal metaphors influence punitive treatments of prisoners and the poor even today

    This book seeks to recover something of the original excitement, challenge and significance of Defoe's four novels of criminal life by reading them within and against the conventions of early eighteenth-century criminal biography. Crime raised deeply troubling questions in Defoe's time, not least as a powerful sign of the breakdown of traditional social authority and order. Arguing that Defoe's novels, like criminal biography, provided ways of facing and working through, as well as avoiding, certain of the moral and intellectual difficulties that crime raised for him and his readers, Faller shows how the 'literary', even 'aesthetic' qualities of his fiction contributed to these ends. Analysing the ways in which Defoe's novels exploited, deformed and departed from the genre they imitated, this book attempts to define the specific social and political (which is to say moral and ideological) value of a given set of 'literary' texts against those of a more 'ordinary' form of narrative

    Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015)

    1. Romancing the real: the "field" of criminal biography -- 2. Defoe's realism: rough frames, strange voices, surprisingly various subjects and readers made more present to themselves -- 3. The copious text: opening the door to inference, or, room for those who know how to read it -- 4. Intimations of an invisible hand: the mind exercised, enlarged, and kept in play by strange concurrences -- 5. The general scandal upon business: unanswerable doubts, and the text as a field supporting very nice distinctions -- 6. The frontiers of dishonesty, the addition and concurrence of circumstances: more on the strategic situating of names -- 7. Notions different from all the world: criminal stupidity, the self and the symbolic order -- Closing comments: truth, complexity, common sense, and empty spaces

    Criminals as Animals from Shakespeare to Lombroso demonstrates how animal metaphors have been used to denigrate persons identified as criminal in literature, law, and science. Its three-part history traces the popularization of the 'criminal beast' metaphor in late sixteenth-century England, the troubling of the trope during the long eighteenth century, and the late nineteenth-century discovery of criminal atavism. With chapters on rogue pamphlets, Shakespeare, Webster, Jonson, Defoe and Swift, Godwin, Dickens, and Lombroso, the book illustrates how ideologically inscribed metaphors foster transfers between law, penal practices, and literature. Criminals as Animals concludes that criminal-animal metaphors continue to negatively influence the treatment of prisoners, suspected terrorists, and the poor even today

    "Just as cultural attitudes toward criminality were undergoing profound shifts in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, modernist authors became fascinated by crime and its perpetrators, as well as the burgeoning genre of crime fiction. Throughout the period, a diverse range of British and American novelists took the criminal as a case study for experimenting with forms of psychological representation while also drawing on the conventions of crime fiction in order to imagine new ways of conceptualizing the criminal mind. Matthew Levay traces the history of that attention to criminal psychology in modernist fiction, placing understudied authors like Wyndham Lewis, Dorothy Sayers, Graham Greene, and Patricia Highsmith in dialogue with more canonical contemporaries like Joseph Conrad, Henry James, Dashiell Hammett, and Gertrude Stein. Levay demonstrates criminality's pivotal role in establishing quintessentially modernist forms of psychological representation and brings to light modernism's deep but understudied connections to popular literature, especially crime fiction"-- Machine generated contents note: Introduction; 1. Modernist detection: minds, mindlessness, and the logic of criminal pursuit; 2. Criminal types: anarchism, terrorism, and the violence of chance; 3. The modernist crime novel: popular literature and the forms of experiment; 4. Cases of identity: late modernism and the life of crime; Conclusion; Bibliography; Index
