Pathos. Forms and fortunes of literary emotions
The goal of this summer school is to explore the role of emotions in literature, namely with respect to the excess of pathos in different forms and times. Pathos has been a fundamental aspect of literature in every epoch. Great poetry has always foregrounded its ability to represent feelings, evoke intense and vivid moods, and elicit readers’ emotions and empathy. On the other hand, the novel – the genre dominating literary modernity – has been o!en accused of indulging in sentimental excess, giving too much space to melodramatic expression. Indeed, in Western cultures, there is a widespread suspicion towards pathos, which has o!en been identified as a shortcoming of literature. Great books – according to a common implicit assumption – can prompt reflection and laughter, but not tears: pathos only concerns lowbrow production. The summer school is an opportunity to engage in a reflection on issues related to pathos in literature in the last few centuries. Different perspectives will be taken into account: specific literary works, reader response theory, cognitive narratology, transmedia adaptation, and publishing history.

Cultures, savoirs et techniques numériques
Pour une investigation économico-anthropologique en milieu numérique
Symbole occidental du savoir, le livre est bien plus qu’un objet fonctionnel. Chargé d’un poids de représentations, le livre est un témoin particulièrement significatif des bouleversements opérées dans les mentalités par le numérique. En cherchant à cerner les points de frictions et les lieux de cristallisations du débat, nous nous efforcerons de comprendre les attachements, les représentations et les métaphores qui accompagnent les évolutions économiques et techniques du livre. En présence de Michel Melot.
