Ithell Colquhoun : Female Phantasmagorias of British Surrealism
No full textHerbert Read et d’autres membres du groupe surréaliste britannique ont eu la volonté dès 1936 d’ancrer le surréalisme dans le paysage littéraire britannique, et ont présenté les productions du mouvement d’avant-garde comme découlant naturellement des canons de la littérature britannique. Nous souhaitons à la fois étendre et remettre en question cette approche en incluant des artistes féminines britanniques ainsi qu’en nous appuyant sur le moins canonique roman gothique qu’André Breton définit comme seul genre romanesque acceptable par le mouvement. Dans le premier Manifeste du Surréalisme, Breton dévalorise l’activité littéraire et rejette plus particulièrement le roman avant de citer comme modèles plusieurs auteurs britanniques masculins et féminins, représentant des branches du « male » et du « female gothic ». Nous en venons à nous interroger quant au statut des romans publiés par des artistes féminines britanniques affiliées au mouvement surréaliste.Notre étude portera exclusivement sur Ithell Colquhoun (1906-1988), artiste surréaliste britannique et praticienne de l’occulte qui a composé trois romans, nommément Goose of Hermogenes (1961), I Saw Water (2014) et Destination Limbo (2021). Comme le montrent les dates de publication, ses romans (et généralement sa contribution à des mouvements artistiques et des systèmes de pensée bien établis) ont récemment commencé à attirer l'attention. Il semble opportun de se plonger dans leur étude et de se demander si l’on peut parler de descendance naturelle vis-à-vis de la tradition gothique dont Colquhoun est l’héritière supposée ou, au contraire, de rupture ? La prose narrative de Colquhoun est-elle une réinvention du gothique ? Au-delà de l’analyse du gothique comme outil au sein du répertoire de thèmes et de techniques utilisés par Colquhoun, notre questionnement portera sur les procédés de transformation mis en œuvre dans ses trois romans. Dans un autre pan de la recherche, nous envisagerons les romans comme des objets d’expérimentation et des artefacts magiques entre les mains de Colquhoun ; il s’agira de mettre à jour son bricolage surréaliste ainsi que l’essence occulte de sa prose narrative. En outre, nous mettrons en lumière l’univers poétique de l’auteure. Nous nous demanderons quelles sont les obsessions personnelles et les images privilégiées de Colquhoun, et nous nous intéresserons à ce qui fait sa mythologie intime et ce qui donne corps à ses romans. Nous aurons également pour ambition de révéler ce que Colquhoun met en mouvement au moyen de ses romans, en d’autres termes de déterminer si son bricolage contribue à démanteler la position marginale des traditions dans lesquelles elle a placé son œuvre. Nous examinerons si Colquhoun produit des sub-versions libératrices du roman gothique, surréaliste et occulte, et/ou si elle crée, par le biais de ses romans (que nous examinerons dans le contexte plus large de ses autres productions, tant littéraires que picturales), un système entièrement alternatif. Nous explorerons les nouvelles directions narratives, littéraires et artistiques que prend le genre romanesque sous son impulsion.Summary: As early as 1936, Herbert Read and other members of the British surrealist group attempted to anchor surrealism in the British literary landscape and presented the productions of the avant-garde movement as naturally descending from British literary canons. We intend to extend and question this approach, by including British female artists and focusing on the less canonical gothic novel that André Breton defined as one of the only acceptable literary genres for the surrealist movement. In the first Surrealist Manifesto, Breton downgraded literary activities and more specifically rejected the writing of novels, before going on to name several British male and female writers of gothic novels as models to be emulated. We thus come to wonder what the status of novels published by British female surrealist writers is.The focus of our study will be placed solely on Ithell Colquhoun (1906-1988), a British surrealist artist and practising occultist who worked on three novels, namely Goose of Hermogenes (1961), I Saw Water (2014) and Destination Limbo (2021). As the years of publication show, her novels (and generally her contribution to well-known artistic movements and systems of thought) have recently started to receive attention. It seems therefore timely to delve into them and ask ourselves whether one can talk about a natural inheritance when discussing the gothic tradition Colquhoun is the supposed heir to, or, to the contrary, if one should speak of a break from tradition. Is Colquhoun’s surrealist prose fiction a reinvention of the gothic? To do so, not only will our analysis explore the gothic as a tool amongst the many themes and techniques used by Colquhoun, it will also focus on the methods of transformation employed by the surrealist artist in her three novels. A further dimension of our research is to approach the novels as objects of experimentation and magical artefacts in the hands of Colquhoun: this consists in uncovering her surrealist bricolage and the alchemical essence of her prose writing, as well as in bringing to light the poetical universe of the writer, that is to say the personal obsessions, preferred images and intimate mythology that are woven together and constitute the colquhounian novel. We also intend to investigate whether Colquhoun’s bricolage contributes to dismantling the marginal position of the traditions she has placed her work in. To put it another way, we shall examine whether Colquhoun produces liberating and empowering sub-versions of the gothic, surrealist and occult novel, and/or whether she creates, by means of her novels (which we will look at in the larger context of her other productions, both literary and pictorial), an entirely alternative system. We will explore the new narrative, literary and artistic directions that the genre of the novel takes under her impulse

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Police and the prevention of crime: commerce, temptation and the corruption of the body politic, from Fielding to Colquhoun
No full textExamining the conception and legitimization of systems for the prevention of crime in eighteenth-century Britain, particularly in the work of Henry Fielding and Patrick Colquhoun, I argue that the conceptualization of the causes and effects of crime as stemming from social processes rather than individual character is central to the history of the social. Examination of the work of eighteenth-century theorists of police demonstrates a particular understanding of links between economic, social and political change. Fielding and Colquhoun argued that crime was a public problem because, through imitation, vice spread like disease throughout the body politic, corrupting the state and leaving it weak and liable to dissolution. To prevent crime was to prevent corruption spreading by removing temptations into vice
