Northern Crossings : Translation, Circulation and the Literary Semi-periphery
- 2022
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- This open access book uses Swedish literature and the Swedish publishing field as recurring examples to describe and analyse the role of the literary semi-peripheral position in world literature from various perspectives and on meso, micro and macro levels, using both quantitative and qualitative methods. This includes the role of translation in the semi-periphery and the conditions under which literature travels to and from that position. The focus is not on Sweden, as such, but rather on the semi-peripheral transitional space as exemplified by the Swedish case.Consisting of three co-written chapters, this study sheds light on what might be called the semi-peripheral condition or the semi-periphery as an area of transition. As part of the Cosmopolitan and Vernacular Dynamics in World Literatures series, it makes continuous use of the concepts of 'cosmopolitan' and 'vernacular' – or rather, the processual terms, cosmopolitanization and vernacularization – which provide an overall structure to the analysis of literature and literary phenomena. In this way, the authors show that the semi-periphery is an ideal point of departure to further the understanding of world literature, because it is a place where the cosmopolitan (the literary universal) and the vernacular (the rootedness in a particular culture or place) interact in ways that have not yet been thoroughly explored.

Montée aux médias sur fond de scandale : Le cas de Soumission de Michel Houellebecq
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Bergen Language and Lingustics Studies. - Bergen : Universtity of Bergen Library. - 1892-2449. ; 10:1, s. 1-11

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The article questions the dynamics of the contemporary literary scandal through the controversy caused by the novel Submission (2015) by the French writer Michel Houellebecq. This novel seeks to provoke the reader by staging a scenario that plays on the fears of Islam. The study focuses on a TV interview with Houellebecq at the Journal de France 2, on January 6, 2015, the day before the publication of the novel. The analyse shows that the journalist aims to bring out the writer’s personal point of view, which is likely to enhance the desirable polemic, whereas the writer remains evasive asserting the autonomy of literature. From this performance on the media scene, one can observe the constructed character of literary polemics of today, where the transgression becomes the pretext to attract public attention. This new logic of literary polemics seriously questions the possibility of real scandals to arise in literature.

Le manifeste sous l’emprise de la fiction : Le Caoutchouc décidément et Le Post-exotisme en dix leçons, leçon onze

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- L’article interrogera l’usage des codes du genre manifestaire dans deux fictions contemporaines françaises, Le Caoutchouc décidément d’Éric Chevillard (1992) et Le Post-exotisme en dix leçons, leçon onze d’Antoine Volodine (1998). Si, dans le cadre fictionnel, le discours manifestaire semble replié sur lui-même et n’avoir qu’une portée limitée, on montrera, à travers une analyse textuelle croisée, que ce procédé auto-représentatif et auto-théorisant implique dans ces fictions un nouveau type de discours légitimant : en effet, les auteurs y « proclament » une esthétique qui définit leur projet d’écriture, tout en se construisant une position singulière dans l’espace littéraire.

Les âges d’or du manifeste artistique et littéraire en France : étude contrastive à partir de la base de données MANART
- 2013

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Cet article propose une étude statistique de l’évolution quantitative connue par le genre manifestaire de 1886 à 2009, dans l’objectif de situer ses « âges d’or » et de vérifier ainsi les idées répandues à son sujet. Dans cette étude, qui s’appuie sur des informations tirées de Manart, une base de données recensant les manifestes artistiques et littéraires du XXe siècle, deux corpus sont mis en comparaison, constitués à partir de critères de sélection différents (critère définitoire et critère de réception). Croisant les approches et les données, une étude contrastive portant sur le manifeste nous semble être la seule qui puisse présenter des résultats solides et un tant soit peu objectifs.

Litteratur i gränszonen : Transnationella litteraturer i översättning ur ett nordiskt perspektiv
- 2011
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- ANtologin Litteraturer i gränszonen analyserar texter som uppstått i sammanhang där olika språk mer eller mindre frivilligt samexisterar och ställer frågan om vad som händer när verk vandrar från ett språk till ett annat, från en kontext till en annan. Boken stammar ur ett antal workshopar kring översättning och reception av utomeuropeiska litteraturer i Norden och samlar forskningsrapporter från tio forskare från olika ämnen som kritiskt diskuterar olika aspekter av transnationalism i litteraturen. Uppsatserna bidrar inte bara till att belysa hur vi genom litteraturen bemöter det främmande utan har också som syfte att synliggöra och problematisera Nordens plats på det världslitterära fältet.

Vilhelm Ekelund och den fransk-italienska kultursfären : Några nedslag i de tidiga prosaverken – från Antikt ideal (1909) till Attiskt i fågelperspektiv (1919)
- 2009

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Swedish poet, essayist and aphorist Vilhelm Ekelund was not only influenced by German literature and philosophy, he also wrote extensive literary criticism on the subject of Romance language authors. This article discusses Ekelund’s relationship to some of the most influential French and Italian writers — as it can be seen in his work during the period 1909–1919. This relationship was ambiguous: he paid homage to French authors such as Montaigne, Montesquieu, Stendhal and Comte — as well as to the Italian poet and philosopher Leopardi – but he also severely criticized such distinguished writers as Baudelaire, Rousseau and Maupassant. One conclusion of this article is that the authors praised by Ekelund all venerate the Greek and Roman cultural heritage, whereas the despised novelists and poets were, in his opinion, either too “modern” or too “feminine” — both highly pejorative adjectives in the author’s terminology. It is also noted that Ekelund’s most ferocious attacks date from the first part of the decade, before he entered a more harmonic period with the works Metron (1918) and Attiskt i fågelperspektiv (1919).
