    Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- Theorizations of Melancholia -- Trauma Studies in The Medico-Psychiatric Field -- Theorizations of Cultural Trauma in Relation to Cultural Melancholia -- Cultural Narratives Activated by the 9/11 Attacks -- White Middle Class Melancholia in Jay Mcinerney’s Fiction -- Postmodern Melancholia and the Fantasy of the Tuché in Don Delillo’s Pre-9/11 Novels -- Falling Man’s Escape into Hyperreality -- Conclusion -- Index. In Cultural Melancholia: US Trauma Discourses Before and After 9/11 , Christina Cavedon frames her examination of 9/11 fiction, especially Jay McInerney’s The Good Life and Don DeLillo’s Falling Man , with a thorough discussion of what US reactions to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 disclose about American culture. Offering a comparative reading of pre- and post-9/11 literary, public, and academic discourses, she deconstructs the still commonly held belief that cultural repercussions of the attacks primarily testify to a cultural trauma in the wake of the collectively witnessed media event. She innovatively re-interprets discourses to be symptomatic of a malaise which had afflicted American culture already prior to 9/11 and can best be approached with melancholia as an analytical concept

    L'ouvrage se propose de d'étudier le passage du concept de mélancolie du discours médical où il apparaît originairement à son utilisation littéraire. Comment se fait-il qu'un terme désignant une pathologie proche de la folie, marquée par le mutisme et l'égarement, l'exclusion radicale hors du monde du langage et de la communication, soit devenu un concept clef servant à caractériser la situation d'énonciation de l'écrivain romantique? Écartant les significations modernes du terme, l'enquête, menée dans une perspective rigoureusement historique, porte sur une série d'oeuvres qui rendent manifeste l'articulation problématique d'une valorisation philosophique ou poétique de la mélancolie avec sa sémantique pathologique: après les textes canoniques ayant contribué à donner au terme ses acceptions non médicales (»le Problème XXX,1« et le »De Vita« de Ficin), entreprise dont sont soulignés les aspects contradictoires, et quelques oeuvres qui jalonnent le développement d'une interprétation autre de la mélancolie (la »Lettre à Damagète«, le »Secretum« de Pétrarque ou le »Misanthrope« de Molière), deux textes de la fin du XVIIIe siècle sont analysés comme emblème de l'émergence d'une écriture mélancolique, les »Lettres à Malesherbes« de Rousseau et »René« de Chateaubriand. Deux oeuvres majeures du romantisme considérées dans leur intégralité peuvent alors être interprétées dans la perspective d'une problématique de l'énonciation mélancolique, celles de E.T.A. Hoffmann et de Théophile Gautier The study sets out to examine how the concept of melancholy evolved from its usage in medical discourse to its usage in literature. How can we explain the fact that a term referring to a pathological condition close to madness and marked by extreme introversion and distraction should have become a key concept characterizing the expressive condition of the Romantic writer? Stripping away the modern usages of the term, the study adopts a rigorously historical perspective and analyzes a number of texts that cast a revealing light on the articulation of a philosophical and poetic purchase on the concept of melancholy and its pathological semantics
