L'Œuvre sans fin. Réception des romans de Monique Saint-Hélier par la critique française (1932-1955)
Full text linkMonique Saint-Hélier became quite successful during the 1930s in particular because of the violent controversy that surrounded her second novel, Bois-Mort. How is it that Saint-Hélier’s work provoked such passionate criticism, but encountered nothing but disinterest after the war? Studying unpublished sources as well as a vast corpus of book reviews, the author explores by this quite particular literary path, as well as the variations in how a work is received over time.Monique Saint-Hélier (1895-1955) connaît le succès dans les années trente en France, grâce notamment à la violente polémique que suscite son deuxième roman, Bois-Mort (1934). Pourtant, dès les années cinquante, la romancière disparaît durablement de l’histoire littéraire française. Pourquoi les romans de Monique Saint-Hélier déchaînent-ils les passions critiques, puis ne rencontrent-ils plus que le désintérêt après la Seconde Guerre mondiale? Comment expliquer le silence éditorial de près de vingt ans qui sépare la publication des ouvrages des années trente de ceux des années cinquante, alors même que ces romans appartiennent à un même ensemble narratif? Fondée sur des sources inédites et un vaste corpus de comptes rendus, l’étude de la réception critique de l’œuvre de Monique Saint-Hélier en France apporte des réponses aux nombreuses questions soulevées par cette trajectoire particulière. Malgré toute sa singularité, ce parcours permet également une réflexion plus générale sur les variations de la réception d'une œuvre à des époques différentes

Monique Truong oral history interview and transcript
No full textThis recording and transcript form part of a collection of oral history interviews conducted by the Chao Center for Asian Studies at Rice University. This collection includes audio recordings and transcripts of interviews with Asian Americans native to or living in Houston.Born in 1968, Monique Truong is a Vietnamese American author who embraces writing and storytelling as a way to build empathy, subvert expectations, and spark dialogue. She grew up in Vietnam but at age six came to the U.S. as a refugee, arriving at Camp Pendleton, in California. After her family found a sponsor, they relocated again—this time to Boiling Springs, North Carolina, where Truong experienced constant bullying and racial discrimination. In middle school, her family moved to Centerville, Ohio, and then to Alief, Texas as Truong entered high school. Although Alief was racially diverse, Truong still saw herself as an outsider and struggled to mesh with other Vietnamese American students.
For Truong and her parents, food was an essential connection to Vietnam — they would drive for hours to find the ingredients to prepare traditional meals. Facing racism and bullying at school, Truong also found solace at the local library. After graduating high school, Truong attended Yale University as a literature major. Here, she not only gained a better understanding of her own identity as an Asian American, but also grew passionate about America’s treatment of Asian Americans and other minority groups as a whole. This later pushed her to study law at Columbia Law School. However, practicing law in an unhealthy work environment took an intense physical and emotional toll, so Truong gradually transitioned out of law and into writing.
As she set down her new career path, Truong interacted closely with other writers in organizations such as the Asian American Writers’ Workshop, Center for Fiction, and Powderkeg. So far, she has written three bestselling, award-winning novels: The Book of Salt (2003), Bitter in the Mouth (2010), and The Sweetest Fruits (2019). In these novels, Truong explores complex themes such as race, family, and voice. She also conducted extensive historic research to reach back in time and honor the stories of those who have traditionally been overlooked. In addition to novels, Truong also writes essays, choral, and theatrical works, and serves on multiple literary arts organizations . She hopes to publish a work of speculative fiction in the future

Le théâtre de Marivaux, une « phénoménologie du cœur » ?
No full textMonique Jutrin-Klener : The theatre of Marivaux — A «Phenomenology of the heart » ?
This article studies Marivaux's theatre in the light of Hegelian thought as expressed in the Phenomenology of the Spirit. The author suggests that Marivaux's theatre is ' phenomenological ' in the Hegelian sense of the term. She emphasizes the analogy between the Hegelian process and the development of Marivaux's characters, and examines several ' Hegelian situations ' in his theatre : surprise and self-awareness, love and recognition, and especially the dialectic of master and slave. After the initial surprise, the characters progress, through various trials and by means of dialogue and a dialectic movement, towards the discovery of the truth.Jutrin Monique. Le théâtre de Marivaux, une « phénoménologie du cœur » ?. In: Dix-huitième Siècle, n°7, 1975. pp. 157-179

Organizing for regime change: an analysis of community unionism in Los Angeles, 2000 - 2010
No full textSince the 1990s in Los Angeles, working class residents have crossed ethnic, religious, and spatial divides to form working class coalitions aimed at enacting social, economic, and environmental justice. This trend, referred to as community unionism, challenges elites‘ narrow distribution of scarce public resources by fighting for community-driven reforms that advance the interests of broadly-shared prosperity (Tattersall, 2010; Reynolds, 1999). Using document analysis and semi-structured interviews, I analyze three broad-based community-labor coalitions that emerged in Los Angeles between 2000 and 2010 to understand how urban governance has changed – both as a result of the progressive community‘s recent coalition building efforts and as a result of the ways in which L.A.‘s broader power structure, itself, has evolved. Specifically, I ask the following questions: (1) what factors account for the three coalitions‘ emergence and relative success and (2) to what extent has a broad-based community-labor power bloc emerged, consolidated, and became robust enough to successfully challenge the agenda of L.A.‘s historically-powerful elite regime? This case study of progressive, working class activism in Los Angeles conveys detailed interpretations of specific coalition phenomena and also offers broader theoretical implications about the contemporary nature of urban governance in America. I argue that a number of complex endogenous and exogenous factors significantly undermined the strength of L.A.‘s elite governing coalition since the 1980s. Simultaneously, Los Angeles‘ progressive community organized diligently to become an active player in the region‘s governing coalition. There has not, however, been a distinct transition from an elite regime to a stable progressive regime. I conclude that L.A.‘s progressive community may deepen its capacity to govern if it continues to: improve race relations, create a culture of authentic internal democracy, overcome resource constraints, coordinate progressive electoral politics, and bridge institutional fragmentation.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Samonne Monique Montgomer
