  • Au carrefour des routes d’Europe : la chanson de geste. Tome II

    Series series Senefiance
    L'épopée vise donc à un but, qu'il soit purement narratif, ou qu'il se double d'une valeur morale. La marche du temps est ressentie comme la force qui nous en rapproche ; le récit est fortement marqué de cette téléologie. Dans la chronique, au contraire, le départ vaut autant que l'arrivée, parfois jamais atteinte, et le temps, ou le récit, ne fait qu'interposer des couches successives, au gré des ... Leer más

Their inability wasn't due to religion, but philosophy: saying someone is dead is nonsense, as the person no longer is. The one thing that can talk about something that is not, as D. Vance Smith shows in this innovative, ... Leer más

    de Jordan Kirk ...
    Five hundred years before "Jabberwocky" and Tender Buttons, writers were already preoccupied with the question of nonsense.
