    Anne Hébert - literature - materialism - poetry - novel - theatre Très rapidement, Anne Hébert trouve sa voie, singulière entre toutes celles de notre littérature : le matérialisme. Entendons par là que, récusant l’enseignement religieux, c’est dans les profondeurs du moi que l’auteure cherche la vérité de l’être ; et la plongée en soi révèle essentiellement, comme le disait Freud, le jeu des pulsions. Pulsions de vie et de mort. Toute l’oeuvre est un quête du secret logé dans le coeur charnel, une quête du désir et des risques mortels qu’il fait courir à celui ou celle (François, Catherine, Elisabeth, Julie, Héloïse, Stevens…) qui s’abîme en lui. Cette étude couvre l’ensemble des écrits (poésie, roman, théâtre), jusqu’aux plus récents publiés par Anne Hébert. Les textes les plus importants font l’objet d’une analyse détaillée. Les continuités thématiques, relevées avec précision, font ressortir l’unité de l’œuvre ainsi que la complicité entre roman et poésie. Et la mise en lumière des différences permet d’observer l’évolution de la problématique d’ensemble. Écrit dans une langue claire, le discours critique évite tout jargon, et l’analyse se garde de toute perspective réductrice. L’oeuvre est mise en parallèle avec les grandes orientations littéraires contemporaines, ce qui met en évidence des aspects nouveaux comme la différence fondamentale avec l’oeuvre de Saint-Denys Garneau, et révèle en Anne Hébert l’une des grandes exploratrices de l’intériorité pulsionnelle de notre littérature.

    The medieval poem Cursor Mundi is a biblical verse account of the history of the world, offering a chronological overview of salvation history from Creation to Doomsday. Originating in northern England around the year 1300, the poem was frequently copied in the north before appearing in a southern version in substantially altered form. Although it is a storehouse of popular medieval biblical lore and a fascinating study in the eclectic use of more than a dozen sources, the poem has until now attracted little scholarly attention. This five-part collaborative edition presents the Arundel version of the poem with variants from three others. In addition it provides a discussion of sources and analogues, detailed explanatory notes, and a bibliography.

    Actors and actresses play characters such as the embittered Medea, or the lovelorn Romeo, or the grieving and tearful Hecabe. The theatre audience holds its breath, and then sparks begin to fly. But what about the actor? Has he been affected by the emotions of the character he is playing? What's going on inside his mind? The styling of emotions in the theatre has been the subject of heated debate for centuries. In fact, Diderot in his Paradoxe sur le comedien, insisted that most brilliant actors do not feel anything onstage. This greatly resembles the detached acting style associated with Bertolt Brecht, which, in turn, stands in direct opposition to the notion of the empathy-oriented "emotional reality" of the actor which is most famously associated with the American actingstyle known as method acting. The book's survey of the various dominant acting styles is followed by an analysis of the current state of affairs regarding the psychology of emotions. By uniting the psychology of emotions with contemporary acting theories, the author is able to come to the conclusion that traditional acting theories are no longer valid for today's actor. Acting Emotions throws new light on the age-old issue of double consciousness, the paradox of the actor who must nightly express emotions while creating the illusion of spontaneity. In addition, the book bridges the gap between theory and practice by virtue of the author's large-scale field study of the emotions of professional actors. In Acting Emotions, the responses of Dutch and Flemish actors is further supplemented by the responses of a good number of American actors. The book offers a unique view of how actors act out emotions and how this acting out is intimately linked to the development of contemporary theatre.

    The Dutch film maker Joris Ivens (1898-1989) was one of the founding fathers of documentary film. The career of this eternal traveller spanned over sixty years, from his first film in the twenties to his last, finished at the age of ninety. Among Ivens's friends and collaborators were leading filmmakers and actors like Eisenstein, Pudovkin, Dovzhenko, Chaplin, Milestone, Capra, Losey, Flaherty, Grierson, De Santis, the Taviani brothers, Signoret, Montand and Marker. In his early years Joris Ivens was a prominent figure in the international film avant-garde. From the thirties onwards he became, according to American film historian Robert Sklar, 'the most important political filmmaker of the decade, probably of the century'. His films on Soviet socialism, the Spanish Civil War, the Indonesian struggle for independence, the Vietnam-war and the Cuban and Chinese revolutions, make him a subject of controversy in any debate on the relationship between art and propaganda. Hans Schoots has based his biography on new research of Ivens complete filmwork and of unknown production-documents, personal letters and diaries, found in many archives, such as Ivens's FBI-dossier and State Archives in Moscow and former Eastern-Berlin. Artistic and political milieus in Amsterdam, Berlin, Moscow, New York, Hollywood, Paris, Havana, Hanoi and Beijing provide the background of this fascinating life-story. De Nederlandse filmmaker Joris Ivens (1898-1989) was één van de grondleggers van documentairefilm. De carrière van deze eeuwige reiziger overspande meer dan zestig jaar, van zijn eerste film in de jaren '20 tot aan zijn laatste, die gereed kwam toen Ivens een leeftijd van negentig had bereikt. Onder Ivens' s vrienden en medewerkers waren filmmakers en acteurs als Eisenstein, Pudovkin, Dovzhenko, Chaplin, Mijlpaal, Capra, Losey, Flaherty, Grierson, DE Santis, de broers Taviani, Signoret, Montand en Marker. In zijn vroege jaren was Joris Ivens een prominent figuur in de internationale filmavant-garde. Vanaf de jaren '30 werd hij, volgens Amerikaanse filmhistoricus Robert Sklar, ' de belangrijkste politieke filmmaker van het decennium, en waarschijnlijk van de eeuw'. Zijn films over Sovjetcollectivisme, de Spaanse Burgeroorlog, de Indonesische strijd voor onafhankelijkheid, de Vietnam-oorlog en de Cubaanse en Chinese revoluties, maken hem controversieel figuur in het debat over de scheiding tussen kunst en propaganda. Hans Schoots heeft deze biografie gebaseerd op het volledige werk van Ivens, waaronder ook onbekende productiedocumenten, persoonlijke brieven en agenda's, zoals gevonden in de vele archieven van de FBI, de Rijksarchieven in Moskou en het vroegere Oost Berlijn. De achtergrond voor dit fascinerende levensverhaal wordt geschetst door de artistieke en politieke milieus in Amsterdam, Berlijn, Moskou, New York, Hollywood, Parijs, Havana, Hanoi en Peking.

    Generally considered one of milestones in the development of modern drama, August Strindberg's chamber play The Ghost Sonata (1907) has variously been hailed as the first expressionist, surrealist and absurdist drama. rIn this monograph of the play as text and as performance - the first of its kind - Egil Törnqvist examines, in four chapters, the source text, various translations of it into English, the stage versions of Max Reinhardt, Olof Molander and Ingmar Bergman, and select radio and TV adaptations. In two framing chapters the background and impact of the play are illuminated. Focusing on Bergman's 1973 production, the book in addition contains a rehearsal diary and a transcription of this production. It is concluded with an annotated list of select productions.

  8. The Intervention of Philology : Gender, Learning, and Power in Lohenstein's Roman Plays

    This book examines the interplay of history, textuality, dramaturgy, and politics in the school dramas of Daniel Casper von Lohenstein (1635–1683). The plays are based on well-known episodes from classical Roman history and were staged in Breslau by students at two all-male humanistic gymnasia. Organized exclusively around stories of such female protagonists as Agrippina, Cleopatra, Epicharis, and Sophonisbe, these productions required that the young actors dress as women to play roles that routinely involved scenes of political intrigue, incest, seduction, torture, and threatened infanticide. In print these plays were accompanied by massive annotational apparatuses that delineate the contours of the learned universe of eastern central Europe in exacting detail. Newman's study sheds light on the ideological complexity of gender, politics, and learned culture in the early modern period as it emerges from these intriguing and often bizarre plays.
