Martin Eden ou le désenchantement romantique d’un écrivain réaliste
No full textMartin Eden, or the romantic disillusionment of a realist writer.
This paper aims at questioning the central paradox of the novel : why does an artist, who had been so determined and eager to build a literary body of work, decide to take his life precisely when he eventually experiences success and a form of recognition ? What can be said of a disappointment that is powerful enough to push to suicide ? Despite the realistic creed claimed by Martin Eden, the novel gradually unveils the figure of a romantic writer, of a rebel passionately enamoured of the Ideal, for whom disappointment and disillusionment are essentially pre-existent to the experience of artistic creation.Ce travail se propose d’interroger le paradoxe central du roman : pourquoi cet artiste qui a désiré avec autant d’acharnement faire œuvre littéraire met-il fin à ses jours au moment où il connaît enfin le succès et ce que l’on pourrait appeler une certaine forme de reconnaissance ? Quelle est donc cette déception assez profonde pour entraîner le suicide ? En dépit du credo réaliste clamé par Martin Eden, le roman dévoile graduellement une figure d’écrivain romantique, rebelle et amoureux de l’Idéal, chez qui la déception et le désenchantement préexistent de manière essentielle à la création artistique elle-même.Wicke A.

Jack Alive / Martin Dead : The Location of the "Author" in Jack London\u27s Martin Eden
No full textThis essay is an attempt to read Martin Eden, Jack Londonʼs autobiographical novel, in terms of the inextricable relationship between the author and the protagonist. Critics have often taken the unbalanced plot and the lack of ironic distance between narrator and character in Martin Eden as the technical weakness of London, but this paper argues that the achievement of this novel owes a great deal to the attachment of London to Martin. The unbalanced structure is a necessary product of the severe struggle of the author to kill his romantic alter ego. // Martin, who aspires to win Ruth Morse, tries to cross class boundaries by making a career of a writer. Even after realizing the emptiness of Ruth, who turns out to be nothing but a typical figure of the bourgeoisie, he somehow persists in loving her. The notion underlying here is that, for Martin, love, career and art are fundamentally inseparable. He objects to the aestheteʼs view of Brissenden on account of his separation of art from career. Martinʼs identity and life consist only in the triunity of love/career/art; the alternative is the repudiation of life. Thus, the unnatural delay of his disappointment in love can be regarded as Londonʼs strategy to set the suicide of Martin as the necessary consequence of the story. // By finishing the story and killing Martin, London finally detaches himself from Martin, reconstructs his self, and, unlike Martin, survives as a professional writer. In this sense, Martin Eden is a story about “writerʼs self-reconstruction.

Experiences Using Large Scale Video Walls for Distance Education
No full textWe describe our experiences building and using the Rutgers Videowall, a low-cost telepresence system that has been used teaching 15 courses and colloquia. By relaxing typical spatial telepresence features, such as background continuity, we greatly reduced costs and gained flexibility in the rooms it could be deployed in. The lower costs and room flexibility enabled academic departments to use the wall, in contrast to traditional telepresence systems which remained inaccessible. We found that the Videowall’s spatial distortions did not have a significant impact on useability, as our initial survey results show that students had an overall positive experience.Technical report DCS-tr-72
