The article presents the profile of Louis Dumur, a French writer of Swiss origin, one of the founders and indefatigable editor of new Mercure de France. Although Dumur was an average poet and playwright and author of nationalist texts, he wrote a novel Un coco de génie (1902), in which he addresses the issue of the writer's vocation and the mission of literature. The story of a seedman's son, who suddenly discovers his literary talent and faces reluctance from the uncultivated local community, is a satire on the petty bourgeoisie society. It is all the more virulent because the young creator turns out to be a somnambulist who recreates masterpieces of world literature. This unconscious rewriting leads the first-person narrator of the novel to reflect on the process of creating itself. Thus Dumur anticipates the appearance of the concept of intertextuality and the text being a mosaic of quotations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L'étude entend démontrer le caractère sacerdotal du travail de l'écriture en le comparant à la pratique religieuse. L’objectif recherché est de voir le travail d’écriture comme vocation pour un monde plus intellectuel, en espérant notoriété et postérité et non un salaire mensuel, tel que le service de Dieu se fait par vocation pour une société plus morale, en espérant le salut de l’âme, sans aucune attente rémunératrice. L'activité littéraire, religieuse est différente des autres fonctions rémunératrices, et par conséquent ne doit pas être guidée par le souci d'argent ou doit être dissociée des termes « affaire », « projet », « salaire » qui peuvent décrire la posture comme typique du fonctionnaire. Il faut plutôt s’attendre aux aides et protection sociales. Tel que le religieux cupide corrompt son âme, l’écrivain partagé entre le double métier peut perdre la concentration, la régularité et l’efficacité de son art. Abstract The study intends to demonstrate the sacerdotal character of the work of writing by comparing it to religious practice. The objective sought is to see the work of the writer as a vocation for a more intellectual world, hoping for notoriety and posterity, and not a monthly salary, such as the service of God is done by vocation for a more moral society, in hoping for the salvation of the soul, wthout any remunerative expectation. Lireraty, religious activity is different from other remunerative functions, and threfore should not be guided by the concern for money or should be dissociated from the terms ʺbusinessʺ, ʺprojectʺ, ʺsalaryʺ, which can describe the posture as typical of the civil servant. We should rather expect social aid and protection. Just as the greedy religious corrupts his soul, the writer torn between the double trade can lose the concentration, the regularity and the effectiveness of his art.

À partir d’un corpus d’une dizaine d’ouvrages (des éditeurs Belfond, Bordas, Buchet, Corti, Girodias, Laffont, Nadeau, Nyssen, Pauvert, Verny et Zylberstein), cet article esquisse une petite poétique des mémoires d’éditeurs, genre qui oscille entre autobiographie, histoire et portraits, et qui conjugue mémoire individuelle et mémoire collective. L’étude porte sur les différentes composantes et les topoï de ce type de récit : le récit de formation, les motifs de la passion pour la lecture et le livre comme objet, le récit de fondation, la description des tâches de l’éditeur (choix des manuscrits, accompagnement des auteurs, course aux prix littéraires…). Présentant une vision pragmatique de la production du livre, les mémoires d’éditeurs apportent un éclairage alternatif et précieux sur la littérature : contexte historique de sa production, conditions matérielles et financières de la création, stratégies auctoriales et éditoriales, rapports entre auteurs et éditeurs, et ils offrent une galerie de portraits dans laquelle les écrivains apparaissent sous un jour nouveau.

Des écrivains réels convoqués à des fins multiples, protagonistes ou simples référents, mais aussi des écrivains fictifs dont la fonction narrative est essentielle ; chacun d’entre eux nous révèle la richesse et la complexité de son statut et de son discours dans plusieurs nouvelles et romans de Tabucchi. Depuis les rêves imaginaires d’Ovide, de Pessoa ou de Leopardi, jusqu’à l’engagement journalistique antifasciste qui oppose García Lorca à D’Annunzio, en passant par la figure du « scripteur transparent » de Tristano muore, il s’agit de montrer quelles sont les différentes formes d’écrivains chez Tabucchi et quelle est la nature de leur rapport avec l’œuvre écrite. L’analyse se penchera ensuite sur le problème récurrent de l’écrivain devant la mort, et de la place de l’écriture dans cette perspective. Le nombre et la variété des auteurs présents dans le corpus retenu permettront en dernier lieu de tenter de définir les fonctions de l’écrivain selon Tabucchi.

La « renaissance littéraire catholique » qui s’épanouit en France à la fin du xixe siècle est le produit à la fois des trajectoires de jeunes écrivains au statut social déclinant et du retrait des intellectuels en proie à la répression institutionnelle et intellectuelle romaine au temps de la crise moderniste . À travers une série d’interrogations socio-historiques construites sur le temps long, Hervé Serry montre comment se forge et évolue difficilement la notion d’écrivain catholique depuis la figure tutélaire de François-René de Chateaubriand et comment se construisent, difficilement, une littérature et une esthétique catholiques. Le rapport fondamental à l’institution est essentiel dans cette traversée du siècle qui met en lumière l’enjeu des « luttes pour le pouvoir de définition de ces notions. »

The article presents research which focuses on French author and activist Émile Zola and the field research he conducted to support his literary works. It aims to demonstrate that Zola always kept his novel in mind while doing field work and examines his attitude toward his monographic and documentary passion. His investigation regarding the presentation of one's self on the literary scene is also considered. Some of his books mentioned include "Le Roman expérimental" and "Au Bonheur des dames."

How can the paradox that French language has lost its prestige in the world but that it continues to attract foreign writers who leave their own mother tongues be explained? This question in most cases hides another one: why do the writers who are faced with exile massively opt for France ? Separation from the mother tongue is always preceded by severing ties with the motherland where life, for some reason, has become unbearable. That is why the linguistic exile is probably never a choice but necessity, consequence of which is the inevitable change of identity. That is how Beckett and Cioran by transferring to the French language in the middle of the last century, were primarily running away from themselves. Cioran wanted to cast aside not only his past as an anti-Semite but also the young man blinded by a totalitarian ideology who he was at the time but who has in the meantime become incomprehensible to him and distant. Beckett's undertaking is of a personal nature; unlike Cioran, he was able to go back to his mother tongue, thus creating a bilingual work. Those two originals of the same work, if we follow through the logic of a tight connection between language and identity - coincide with simultaneous existence of two identities in Beckett… [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents a study of the life and career of French writer and intellectual Josephy Rosny. Particular attention is paid to his role as a writer during France's Revolutionary period. Rosny's career trajectory was that he first entered the French Revolutionary army as a soldier, then became an administrative official and finally a writer. His work spanned a variety of genres during his most productive phase, which was from 1794 to 1812. During this phase, Rosny published nearly forty works encompassing drama, novels, moral tales, dictionaries and scholarly writings. This article attempts to examine the largely forgotten Rosny in the context of the "world of letters" during the Revolutionary period.
