Phenomenology in the works of Robbe-Grillet
No full textThis thesis contends that a return to a phenomenological
analysis of Alain Robbe-Grillet's film and fiction is a relevant and useful undertaking at the start of the twenty
first century, providing the opportunity to reassess Robbe-Grillet's entire oeuvre, both films and novels. It addresses the limitations of earlier phenomenological studies, analysing works not yet subjected to phenomenological analysis, and exploring important
themes into which phenomenology can provide original insights, especially since the development of new phenomenological critical theories.
The structure of this thesis demonstrates the coherence of a phenomenological approach across the works of Robbe-Grillet. The introduction contextualises the
contribution of the thesis, indicating oversights to be rectified in existing studies. The first chapter charts
the development of phenomenology highlighting areas of relevance to the insights outlined in the thesis. Chapter two demonstrates that both the phenomenological reduction, and Robbe-Grillet's formal strategies of challenging
cultural expectations, result in a "making strange" of perceptual experience, with repercussions for the subversion of conventional fictional and filmic narratives.
Subsequent chapters explore further consequences of the reduction, beginning in chapter three with the embodiment
of consciousness which impacts upon the presentation of
narrative perspective in Robbe-Grillet's film and fiction. The fourth chapter examines Robbe-Grillet's rendering of a lived experience of time, rather than an objective
measurement of it, thus analysing another consequence of embodied existence and of the "making strange" that results from undermining cultural expectations. Another mode of
bodily existence, sexuality, was neglected in previous
phenomenological studies, and is examined in the fifth chapter, in the light of feminist readings of phenomenology making a new contribution in its reassessment of the debates around cultural stereotypes and subversion. Chapter six examines the complex relations surrounding intersubjectivity, another area not previously addressed, and elucidates the problematics of Robbe-Grilletian inter-human relationships,
The thesis concludes that earlier phenomenological studies
have not fully worked through all of the implications of the phenomenological reduction in Robbe-Grillet's
works in terms of cultural subversion, nor have they accounted fully for the interdependency of various modes
of human embodiment( perception, situation in space
and time, sexuality and intersubjectivity) as they are enacted in Robbe-Grillet's narratives
Poétique de la reconstruction : espace, objet et identité chez Alain Robbe-Grillet
No full textRésumé: Nous essaierons d’analyser la représentation de l’espace et des objets chez Alain Robbe-Grillet dans le cadre d’une problématique sur l’identité. Si le nouveau romancier rompt avec les modalités traditionnelles de représentation de l’univers romanesque, c’est qu’il joue sans cesse avec les signes qui permettent de déterminer l’identité des éléments du décor. Nous exposerons ainsi quelques tensions dialectiques par lesquelles l’auteur perçoit et conçoit l’espace et ses objets, afin de montrer que ses procédés relèvent d’une poétique de la reconstruction. Mots-clés: Alain Robbe-Grillet; poétique; espace; objet; identité.Abstract: We will try to analyze the space’s and the object’s representation in Alain Robbe-Grillet’s works as part of a problem about the identity. If the nouveau romancier breaks with the traditional representation forms of the novel’s universe, it’s because he plays constantly with the signs that enable to determine the identity of the décor’s elements. Thus, we will expose some dialectical tensions by which the author perceive and conceive the space and its objects, in order to show that his techniques constitute a poetics of the reconstruction.

Alaın Robbe - Grıllet
No full textJohn Sturrock, Fransız Yeni Romanı (The French New Novel) Claude Simon, Michel Butor, Alain Robbe-Grillet (1969) 1922’de doğan Alain Robbe - Grillet Paris Milli Ziraat Enstitüsü mezunudur. Bir süre profesyonel olarak zirai ekonomi dalında çalışmıştır. 19'50’li yıllarda basılmaya başlanan Le Voyeur (Paris 1955) ve La Jaluousie (Paris 1957) gibi romanlarının yapısını (özelliğini) ve R. Grillet’in edebi teorilerini gördüğü bu bilimsel eğitime dayandırarak kısmen açıklamak mümkündür. A. R. Grillet’in amacı cansız varlıklar dünyasına örtülü ya da açıkça beşeri değerler yakıştıran benzetme sanatları dolu edebi dili kaldırıp, gerçeğin açıklanmasına ‘bilimsel’ bir nesnellik ve yansızlık getirmek gibi görünüyor. İnsan kokusundan ırak, her şeyi ölçüp biçen ve nesneleri olduğu gibi anlatan bir dilden yanadır. Ancak, bu girişim, dilin doğası gözönüne alındığında, uygun bir girişim midir, ya da katı ve nesnel gerçeklerin sınırlı oluşu gözönüne alındığında arzulanan bir girişim midir soruları ileriden beri hareretle tartışılagelmiştir
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
« Glissements progressifs du plaisir » : érotisme, kitsch et sorcellerie chez Alain Robbe-Grillet
No full text“Successive Slidings of Pleasure”: Eroticism, Kitsch and Witchcraft in Alain Robbe-Grillet’s Work. According to Alain Robbe-Grillet, his movie Successive Slidings of Pleasure (1974) has been directly influenced by the essay Satanism and Witchcraft (French original: 1862) of the romantic historian Jules Michelet and also by the reading of this book by Roland Barthes in the sense of a new criticism. In the same sense, we propose here a comparative study of our corpus, based on the idea of a particular archaic universe of magical practice, shamanism and witchcraft as it is described by Hans Peter Duerr : “The ‘dream place’ is everywhere and nowhere, just like the ‘dreamtime’ is always and never. You might say that the term ‘dream place’ does not refer to any particular place and the way to get to it is to get nowhere.” (Dreamtime, 1987; German original: 1978). Despite its rationality, modern civilization is mainly based on an irrational principle: the commodity fetishism (Marx). Thus in modern societies you can find a sliding eroticism of fetishism, now in the Freudian sense of the term (cf. Jean Baudrillard), that may transform every object into an object of desire, with the consequence that even the human body enters as a “fetish” into sexual relationship. In his works, Robbe-Grillet reproduces this universe by restituting to this fetishism its magic appearance throughout kitsch (representing anti-nature) and pornography in the “dream place” called cinema. The “generator” in Successive Slidings of Pleasure is the perfect female beauty of the seventies, associated to that of a witch. A similar effect produced by the woman’s body can be found, according to the “new critic” Roland Barthes and the “new novelist” Robbe-Grillet, in the work of Jules Michelet
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
