Atelier organisé par Monika Fludernik avec le CRAL (Centre de Recherche sur les Arts et le Langage  UMR 8566 EHESS/CNRS) dans le cadre du séminaire "Recherches contemporaines en narratologie".

Présentation de l'atelier

The workshop will focus on intermediality in narrative of the Renaissance period and a larger diachronic range of texts including the Renaissance and eighteenth century, with two papers by Werner Wolf (Université de Graz/Autriche) and Jean-Jacques Chardin (Université de Strasbourg) with extensive discussion. There will be an emphasis on early narratives (since most narratological models focus on post-eighteenth-century texts.)

Professor Wolf will speak on "Transmedial narratology: Theoretical bases and some applications (drama, single paintings, instrumental music)". He will therefore introduce intermediality from the perspective of the stage, painting and music.

By contrast, Jean-Jacques Chardin will concentrate on a genre that combines visual and linguistic elements, namely the emblem. His paper will have the title: "Qui de l'icône ou de la rhétorique dit le plus? Stratégies narratives dans quelques emblèmes anglais du début du 17e siècle." Besides focusing on a very fascinating genre this paper will also open perspectives diachronically back to the Middle Ages.             

The discussion will be in English and French.

The seminar “Recherches contemporaines en narratologie” is a seminar organised under the auspices of the Centre de recherche sur les arts et les langages (CRAL), an internationally acclaimed research unit of the CNRS created in 1983 by Claude Bremond, Raymond Bellour, Gérard Genette, and Tzvetan Todorov. Since February 2013, the seminar has met without interruption twice monthly during the academic year (12 times a year) and since 2006 has been included among the official credit-granting seminars of the EHESS. The seminar (with its own website) is open to graduate students from the EHESS and other Parisian universities, and it is also attended by university professors and researchers as well as by auditors. Lectures are given by members of the Cral, but also and in particular by lecturers invited from the outside (France or abroad), chosen for their expertise according to the topic of the year. Numerous leading international scholars have lectured before the seminar – among them David Herman, Marie-Laure Ryan, Tamar Yacobi, Meir Sternberg, Ansgar Nünning, Henri Meschonnic, Lubomír Doležel, Claude Calame, Jean-Marie Schaeffer, Jean-Michel Adam, Françoise Revaz, Raphaël Baroni, Monika Fludernik. Werner Wolf was a guest lecturer to the seminar in 2008.

In March 2013, the 3rd conference of the European Narratology Network (http://www.narratology.net/) was hosted by the CRAL, where the current headquarters of the ENN are located.

The origins of French narratology are closely associated with CRAL, and the seminar “Recherches contemporaines en narratologie” has contributed to the renewal of narratology in France, also serving as a relay between French and international narratology.
