Seminar - Ethnology, anthropology
Societies and beings of exception
Interdisciplinary approaches and participative sciences (ethnology, psychology, socio-anthropology, archeology, epigraphy, anthropo-paleontology, law)
Dans toute l’histoire de l’humanité, il y eut des groupes et des individus exceptionnels, élites ou parias, admirés ou méprisés, remarquables et remarqués, doués et maîtrisant un savoir particulier ou simplement à l’écart des groupes sociaux majoritaires. Cette mise en relief ou à l’écart peut être simplement question de personnalité individuelle, et peut aussi provenir du statut et de la morphologie sociale, de circonstances historiques, de circonstances religieuses et symboliques, de circonstances politiques, de circonstances sociales, culturelles et économiques, ou bien de rapports interculturels hiérarchisés. Le sujet est si riche qu’il ne saurait être couvert en l’espace des huit séances du séminaire, aussi faut-il considérer le thème de cette année comme une simple introduction à un ensemble complexe qu’il conviendra d’approfondir par la suite, notamment dans le cadre de futures sessions de ce séminaire.

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.
