内容説明・目次

内容説明

The study of literature still tends to be nation-based, even when direct evidence contradicts longstanding notions of an autonomous literary canon. In a time when current events make inevitable the acceptance of a global perspective, the essays in this volume suggest a corrective to such scholarly limitations: the contributors offer alternatives to received notions of 'influence' and the more or less linear transmission of translatio studii, demonstrating that they no longer provide adequate explanations for the interactions among the various literary canons of the Renaissance. Offering texts on a variety of aspects of the Anglo-French Renaissance instead of concentrating on one set of borrowings or phenomena, this collection points to new configurations of the relationships among national literatures. Contributors address specific borrowings, rewritings, and appropriations of French writing by English authors, in fields ranging from lyric poetry to epic poetry to drama to political treatise. The bibliography presents a comprehensive list of publications on French connections in the English Renaissance from 1902 to the present day.

  • Chapter 4 Utopia Versus State of Power, or Pretext of the Political Discourse of Modernity: Hobbes, Reader of La Boetie? 1 The earliest version of this Chapter dates from 1980, from a session of a research group at the University of Montreal, "Political Discourse and Models of Rationality," sponsored by the Association France-Quebec and the University of Montreal, whose principal members were Christiane Fremont, Francoise Gaillard, Pierre Gravel, Claude Lagadec, Michel Serres, and myself. In English, this version became an Eberhard L. Faber lecture at Princeton University at the invitation of Albert Sonnenfeld, and another at McGill University at the invitation of Marc Angenot and George Szanto. I thank everyone for the debates sparked by these events. Fifteen years later, I completely reconceived this study for the conference "Konfigurationen der Macht in der fruhen Neuzeit" held at the Universitat GS Essen in March 1996. I heartily thank Roland Galle for his invitation, his encouragement, and his generous indulgence. I also thank Alice Stroup for her later attentive and strict reading, and especially David Lee Rubin for the efficacious goodwill and careful generosity of his work as editor for the first publication of a much longer version of this essay: "Utopie versus etat de pouvoir, ou pretexte du discours politique de la modernite: Hobbes, lecteur de La Boetie?" EMF: Studies in Early Modern France, IV: Utopia 1:16th and 17th Centuries, ed. David Lee Rubin, co-ed. Alice Stroup (Charlottesville, VA: Rookwood Press, 1998), 31-83.
