- This article considers the Francophone literary canon based on a transnational reception study. It focuses on the circulation of French language literature within the Swedish academic system during the last thirty years. A longitudinal empirical study of bachelor and doctoral dissertations in French between 1986 and 2016 allows the author to examine the dynamics of canon formation and renewal, as well as the role of universities in this process, particularly in regard to the creation of a canon of Francophone literary works. In response to recent scholarly anthologies which have debated the Francophone canon, this study is able to confirm the existence of Francophone classics. Finally, it is argued that further reception studies focusing on areas outwith the Francophone literary system will be of prime importance if the question of the Francophone canon is to be fully assessed beyond the immediate context of the Hexagone.

How ‘Portuguese’ are Palenquero and Chabacano really?

- A long-lasting debate within creole studies concerns the scarcity of Spanish-based creoles and the theoretical implications this may have. However, there is no agreement as to how many genuinely Spanish-based creoles there are in the world, and identifying the size of that group can generate controversies. Papiamentu, for instance, is canonically classified as a Spanish-based creole, even though most scholars at present seem to agree its origins are Creole Portuguese. A Portuguese lineage has on various occasions and by various authors also been claimed for Chabacano (Philippine Creole Spanish) and Palenquero (spoken in Colombia). These creoles, too, were supposedly once Portuguese-based, only to subsequently be ‘relexified’ towards Spanish. This paper argues that there is little linguistic basis for that claim. Although both creoles do indeed seem to have received some Portuguese (Creole) input, we maintain that this input was limited and substratal in nature, and thus has no bearing on the classification (whether diachronic or synchronic) of the two creoles as truly Spanish-based.

Po-éthique et écocritique : Relire Francis Ponge et René Char à l’anthropocène

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The existence of a new geological age (the Anthropocene) associated with the impact of man on the earth is attracting more and more researchers, also from the humanities. The notion of the Anthropocene leads, among other things, to a reflection on human actions, on time and on morals. In the 20th century, both Ponge and Char write abundantly on nature. Their poetry reveals a deep involvement with ethical questions. This article is an ecocritical and poethical examination of their oeuvre. It is oriented towards the possible links between poetry and action, towards poetry understood as denunciation and accusation, but also as a moral and epistemological guide. If poetic dwelling on the earth (Hölderlin and Heidegger) may have a meaningful relevance to Char and Ponge it should not be thought of as utopia, nostalgia, or meditation, but rather as a lesson in the shaping of responsibility, awareness and reconciliation.
