History, fiction, representations: the voices that build the Americas

Histoire, fiction, représentations

Ce colloque se propose d’étudier l’état actuel, des années 1970 à nos jours, des questionnements sur l’américanité, saisie dans un sens à la fois local, national et transcontinental. Le continent américain a été et reste un pôle attractif pour des populations/des individus en quête d’un monde nouveau et meilleur, qu’il a acceptés et refoulés tout au long de son histoire. Comment l’américanité, réelle ou mythique, accueillante ou exclusive, opère-t-elle en tant que critère d’une recherche identitaire dans la réélaboration constante et l’évolution des visions culturelles de l’Amérique du nord et de l’Amérique latine ?

The Classics in the Americas. Reprising and Rewriting Greek and Latin Classics in the American Continent and the Caribbean

While classical intertextuality has been a widely studied subject and a much-discussed topic in the field of European literary theory, there exist, as of yet, only one-off studies regarding its developments in the “New World”. Although works by writers such as Edgar Allan Poe and Jorge Luis Borges have often been analyzed from an intertextuality-oriented perspective, and although several research projects, by focusing on this or that national or regional literature of the Continent, have helped cover sizeable blind spots in literary history, the groundwork has yet to be laid for an overall theoretical approach on the ways in which the Ancient Classics have hitherto been reprised and rewritten in the Americas.
