Literary Genres as Norms and Good Habits
The article argues that literary genres cannot be defined on strictly formal grounds, since they are determined by the representational goals pursued by literary works. A survey of the subgenres of the novel shows that the differences between them are linked to the way in which they imagine fictional worlds. Generic differences are normative only in the sense that they are good trade habits, useful recipes that help writers achieve representation…

The Heidegger Affair
Since the publication of the French version of Le Mirage linguistique, another symptom of paradigm change has stirred the Parisian intellectual scene: the Martin Heidegger affair, triggered by the realization that during the early 1930's, the German philosopher had been a fervent supporter of National Socialism. At the same time, the literature departments in America have been briefly enlivened by the discovery that, as a young man, the late Paul…
Formalism in Narrative Semiotics
Structuralist poetics has often been criticized for its claim that literature, like any other domain of external reality, can be approached with objective methods. Extreme positions have denied poetics-structuralist or otherwise-any relevance in the understanding of literature, dismissing it as yet another variety of logocentric and paternalistic discourse. In a more moderate vein, some critics, notably Paul de Man, have argued against the over-c…

Sujet, Idealite, Langage Reflexions sur les premiers ecrits de Derrida
Le rapport de Derrida a Husserl : l'impossibilite de fonder l'idealite mathematique, sinon toute idealite, sur l'auto-examen du sujet present-a-soi fait perdre au sujet transcendantal, et au sujet tout court, sa primaute. L'A. analyse les solutions recherchees par Derrida, a partir de cette problematique de la dissociation du sujet et de l'idealite, dans une reflexion approfondie sur le langage (langue, signe, trace, difference...)
The Poetics of Plot. The Case of English Renaissance Drama
In Praise of the Ear (Gloss's Glosses)
After forty, Gloss, who once had been the most fervent reader of all my friends, turned away more and more from the company of books. For a while, he still leafed through old favorites, Agamemnon, Tamburlaine, Molloy, but soon even these dignified friends of his youth lost their grip on him. don't understand the black signs before my eyes anymore, he complained to me. Some are larger, some smaller. The lines often stop soon after the middle of th…

Noun phrases
Recent linguistic research has explored the possibility of using standard logical analyses to explain some phenomena of natural languages. The logical notion of scope in modal contexts has yielded to the linguistic dichotomy of [±specific] indefinite NPs. Donnellan’s (1966) distinction between referential and attributive uses of definite description has been used to extend this dichotomy to include definite NPs. The behaviour of moods in Romance …
