Le GRIAL (groupe interdisciplinaire d’analyse littérale), centre de recherche de l’équipe d’accueil 3656 AMERIBER, organise un colloque interdisciplinaire sur le thème de « L’insulte » les 17 et 18 octobre 2013. Interdisciplinaire, le colloque a pour objet d’explorer les stratégies et les mécanismes de l’insulte, d’en questionner les modalités et les enjeux et de mettre en lumière les implications de tous ordres – éthiques, esthétiques, axiologiques, idéologiques – que revêt cette pratique radicale qui prend sa source, entre effraction et sublimation, à la croisée du corps et du code. L’ambition de cette rencontre transversale est de faire dialoguer, autour du même objet de recherche, des savoirs disciplinaires – mais aussi des savoirs théoriques, méthodologiques, critiques – qui trop souvent ignorent leur complémentarité.

Lire la littérature et les arts visuels du monde anglophone avec le Lacan de l’après-encore
Reading English-language Arts and Literature with the Later Lacan
Lacanian analysis of literature and the arts has not been in vogue in France for some time now. Following the publication of Écrits in 1966, there was a period of analytic fascination with the imaginary capture of the mirror phase and its intersection with the structures of the symbolic in both literary and film studies. Since the 1980s, academic engagement with Lacanian theory in the cultural field has been in a slump, and this for several reasons: the reputed difficulty of Lacan’s style as apprehended through Ecrits, the opposition of numerous feminist critics, and the general decline of theory in the field of literary studies. Today, in light of the growing force of scientistic conceptions of the human subject (at the level of intelligence, behaviour, reproduction, the limits of the body, mortality), Lacanian theory finds renewed relevance in its unwavering postulate of the subject as singular, unique and incalculable, insusceptible to scientific conclusiveness.
