  The anomaly in question(s)

  TRANS- 26 (2020)

  Of all the imaginative freedoms literature has to offer, the anomaly is certainly the most radical tool that fiction can exploit. However, the anomaly has often been described as a voluntary or involuntary infraction of norms and rules, and this concept has been linked to the “abnormal”. For a long time, the terminological confusion that resulted has hindered a precise reflection on the intrinsic characteristics of the concept of anomaly. Which framework can be designed for these irregularities? How can one build a discourse that preserves the singularity of the “deviation” that the anomaly opposes to norms and normality, without confusing it with the “abnormal”? How does the anomaly violate social, psychological and/or artistic parameters and established frameworks? How does it challenge the reader’s traditional patterns of reception and which new fields does it open to them?

  Contemporary receptions of the work of Simone de Beauvoir - France, Italy and Spain (1968-2018)

  Lors de ce colloque consacré aux modalités de réception de l’œuvre de Simone de Beauvoir dans l’espace méditerranéen, nous souhaitons nous interroger sur l’actualité de ses travaux tant philosophiques que littéraires. Le Deuxième Sexe est un texte fondateur du féminisme, mais Mémoires d’une jeune fille rangée, La Force des choses ou La Force de l’âge ont eu un impact considérable sur les esprits, en France sans doute, mais aussi en Italie et en Espagne.

  Contra-bridges

  24th issue of “TRANS-”

  This issue of the journal TRANS- will be devoted not to the bridge, but to bridges, be they real or imaginary, painted, sculpted, filmed, recounted or deconstructed. This subject is not exclusive to any time period or genre. It does however require a comparative approach that can take the form of a comparison between different objects – bridges coming from geographies, histories, literatures, or technologies – and can be understood as a meeting point of several approaches, and as the excursion of a scientific perspective in a work of fiction, or an historical approach to a concept.

  The eccentric character in Romance language literary fictions in the 20th and 21st centuries

  En relation avec l'observatoire web international et pluridisciplinaire « Marcovaldo », ce colloque international sur le personnage farfelu dans les fictions littéraires de langues romanes (XXe-XXIe siècles) entend appréhender ce qu'il en est des contours de ce personnage, de la terminologie qui le caractérise, de ses filiations littéraires et de la typologie à laquelle il pourrait donner lieu. Le colloque se propose en outre d'interroger le lien du personnage farfelu aux limites (questions de la marginalité, de la transgression, y compris générique), sa relation à l'auteur et au lecteur (y a-t-il un effet-personnage farfelu ?), et plus largement au sujet dont il pourrait bien refléter si ce n'est la crise, du moins la part d'ombre ou de rêve.
