Tema: Jaccottet, Philippe -- Criticism and interpretation
Descripción: The aim of this thesis is at once simple and complex. It consists of explaining the modes of expression and the prevalent idioms of the experience of la promenade, the contemplative experience of a leisurely stroll, in the works and notebooks of Philippe Jaccottet. Far from focusing solely on the dynamic aspect of walking, the aspect to which the majority of literary critics have for so long limited themselves, it consists as well of defining the movement of la promenade as a practice of l'entre-deux (the in-between), through the sensorial dimensions of the work as well as through is writing practices. The objective of this thesis is to focus on the passage from the experience of movement to the experience of writing in the works of Jaccottet, in order to demonstrate that walking, in the context of la promenade, is not only an extra-diagetic experience, but that it possesses as well a diagetic status meant to be understood through the use of a particular form.
My analytical framework used here is founded on the hypothesis that la promenade, at least in the works of Philippe Jaccottet, is in fact an issue of the "in-between"; a problem which is first and foremost a way of formulating a vision of the world which comes from a particular poetic sense of measure, accuracy and balance. For Jaccottet, l'entre-deux denotes a way of inhabiting the outside world, of seizing the contrasts and contradictions in the tension between the known and the unknown, the near and the far, inside and outside, visible and invisible. In this sense, l'entre-deux denotes being at once within oneself and being in the world without, as if the poet himself wandered between two extremes, between two opposite poles of thought and knowledge.
In line with the procedures of traditional literary criticism, this thesis thus attempts to define the development of the poetic subject, its relation to the world, to writing and to language. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
