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.

What is the role of informal institutions in the evolution of the economic, political and social aspects of Caribbean basin? Diacronie will analyze the economic and social development of the area, focusing on the role played by informal actors, namely the ones moving between legality and illegality, that were able (or are able) to give the individual (no matter if a customer, consumer or merchant) what the laws prohibit. The objective is to examine both contemporary phenomena and phenomena which, although related to the early modern age, have generated long-term consequences in the history of the regions related to it.
