The Name of the Mother
The Heirs of Amphitryon
The Heirs of Amphitryon: Social Fathers and Natural Fathers Marie Maclean (bio) pater semper incertus est, mater sed certissima When Freud first used the adage which contrasts the uncertainty of fatherhood with the certainty of motherhood, he used it as a basis for the edification of the “family romance.” 1 In the fantasy of the “family romance” the young child imagines itself a foundling or bastard in order to lay claim to a more illustrious pat…
Late Stone Age and Early Iron Age Settlement in the Interlacustrine Region
A partir des resultats d'une prospection archeologique du district de Rakai (Lac Victoria, sud-ouest de l'Ouganda) et des donnees ethnographiques, l'auteur examine les consequences de l'evolution de l'environnement et le passage de la technologie de la pierre a la technologie des metaux sur les developpements sociaux, en particulier l'augmentation de la population, des communautes de cette region
The Performance of Illegitimacy
B ASTARDY GOES hand in hand with myth making.' It is regarded as an exception to the rule, an ex-centric phenomenon, and the excentric always generates myths of excess, whether for good or for evil. This rule applies whether the myths are those of whole social groups, products of whatJung would call collective unconscious,2 or merely those of the individual psyche and its phantasms. Personal narratives of illegitimacy and delegitimation should th…
From Minority Creation to Universal Creation
Perspectives actuelles de la reflexion sur l'approche feministe du champ litteraire: contributions et dilemmes de la critique feministe; sujet, creation et culture minoritaires; socialisation des textes de femmes et apprentissage de la difference. (Article precedemment publie en francais dans Savoir et difference des sexes, Cahiers du GRIF, 1990, n.45, p235-58)
Introduction to the Paratext
HE LITERARY WORK consists, exhaustively or essentially, of a text, that is to say (a very minimal definition) in a more or less lengthy sequence of verbal utterances more or less containing meaning. But this text rarely appears in its naked state, without reinforcement and accompaniment of a certain number of productions, themselves verbal or not, like an author's name, a title, a preface, illustrations. One does not always know if one should con…
The Figurability of the Visual
Louis Marin, Marie Maclean, The Figurability of the Visual: The Veronica or the Question of the Portrait at Port-Royal, New Literary History, Vol. 22, No. 2, Probings: Art, Criticism, Genre (Spring, 1991), pp. 281-296
Pretexts and Paratexts
MICHEL SERRES defines the ambivalent and pivotal status of the threshold in artistic endeavor by an apt analogy: door opens or closes a threshold which is held to be such because at this spot a law is overturned: on one side reigns a certain rule, on the other begins a new law, so that the door rests on its hinges on a neutral line where the two rules of law balance and cancel each other. . . . The singular site is a part of neither this world no…
Narrative and the Gender Trap
Narrative as Performance
What are the expectations and obligations of story-telling? What are the power relations of narrator and narratees? Focusing on the role of narrative in the work of Baudelaire, Marie Maclean sees narrative not just as act but as interplay and enactment
The Signifier as Token
Oppositional Practices in Women's Traditional Narrative
proportion in tales from a number of European collections.3 From our knowledge of the Grimms' own circle we also know that these were tales passed very specifically from mother to daughter, or sometimes, from foster mother to foster daughter, from nurse to nursling. While such tales were considered vulgar, demeaning, and beneath contempt this was freely admitted. The general opinion was that of Voltaire: A mature man with serious business does no…

Metamorphoses of the Signifier in “Unnatural” Languages
The extent and force of metafiction, and especially of modern SF—of that intellectual adventure which could be called “cognitive subversion”—owes much to an increasing understanding of language. The construction of artificial languages, the exploration of knowledge systems and of cybernetics, and information theory generally all lead to a literature which exploits the connections between human, or “natural, ” semiotic systems and others which are…
Specularite et Inversion Transformationnelle Chez Baudelaire
Analyse actantielle soulignant la solidite, la personnalite des actants, en meme temps que la division latente du moi qui menace celui qui se voit encadre dans sa propre peinture, pris dans une relation speculaire. Mais le poete peut transformer l'horreur de la mort dans la vie en triomphe de la vie dans la mort
