This study explores the works of Jonathan Safran Foer, Daniel Mendelsohn, and Art Spiegelman through the notion of trace, the founding principle of the aesthetics and ethics of post-Holocaust writing. The incomplete knowledge of these “post-Holocaust generations” implies the presence of a “postmemor...

From perinatal to the child’s ancestor, from appointment to tran...

La question de la « fin » a largement retenu l’attention de la critique ces trente dernières années : fin de l’histoire déclarée par Fukuyama en 1992, des avant-gardes, de la modernité, des « grands récits » (Lyotard), mort du roman, et plus généralement menaces écologiques, faillite des idéologies,...

The report of deuil in the culture of Robert Asséo and Sylvie Dreyfus-Asséo is discussed on the basis of three dimensions inherent in the traumatic process described: the disqualifying constraint exerted by the collective, the encroachment of the transient, and the role of surme in the reality test....

‘titrebSummary’/titrebWhen etymology, perpetrators approach crime in so far as it targets the denial of separation. It can be seen as the ultimate temptation, on the part of some subjects, to resolve the threat posed by the theft of a narcissistic object, in a certain dedistinction between the inter...

If Chrétien de Troyes needs a peaceful Arthurian kingdom to bring about “the time of adventures”, the war is on the horizon of the prose novels — who develop in the next century — as it was already in the chronics on which Chrétien de Troyes was inspired: recurrent wars, never completely extinguishe...

‘titrebSummary’/titreb. through a psychanalytic conception of desires and depression (Freud, Lacan, Bowlby, etc.) we try to demonstrate that pathological depression is the reverse truth of the desire. Thus, it seems to me that the movement of desire is a sign of the success of the bereavement when p...

In the succession of the dagara deuil rites, the analysis of their final phase was preferred. During these rites, a tree branch chosen by the deceased’s son in brushes is sculpted and then installed in the ancestors’ sanctuary. Punctuated by two preparations of mil beer described successively as ‘bi...

Even if, according to psychiatrist Jacques Hassoun "Judaism is not a funeral religion?", the wide Jewish world is not, however, restricted to only the religious aspects, and its musical currents are not only attached to liturgy. Dealing with Jewish cultures (insisting on the plural) allows us to tak...

deuil complicated or dotted?

The questions behind this research memory come from the established observation of the marginalisation of bereavement in the Western world. From Philippe Ariès to Eric Crubézy, researchers from all disciplines looked at the case of death and the response our societies provide to it. What role do pla...

And few texts require, with the same urgency, listening, physical or symbolic presence of the other, contemporary, auditor or reader, who is also the representative of the other human who was missing at the time of the test. Hence the need to reconnect Primo...
