AbstractThe autobiography of Thérèse Renaud, Une mémoire déchirée (1978), breaks with the conventions of traditional autobiography by its fragmented form and by the non-linear shape of the woman's life it describes. In the evocation of her childhood and adolescence in 1920s and 30s Quebec, the author reveals her gradual discovery of the identity of a rebel and an artist against the backdrop of a repressive social and educational milieu. The internalization of the values of this milieu, including the prescription of a passive and domestic role for women, create however a sense of internal division and blocked creativity that will haunt the author throughout the two decades of marriage and maternity which are briefly evoked in this work. Published after twenty-five years of literary silence, Une mémoire déchirée is a cry of liberation, an attempt to speak the usually unspoken moments of a woman's life. As well, by its insistence on the importance of heeding the voice of the unconscious, it demonstrates the author's fidelity to the message of the manifesto Refus global, of which she was a signatory in 1948.

AbstractSemiology defines itselï where two currents of thinking converge, namely the development of a way of analyzing symbolic forms and the development of a qualitative methodology for the human sciences. On the basis of this definition one may criticise the way the process of symbol formation has been analyzed since the beginning of structuralism. This criticism will help show how semiology is pertinent for a sociological analysis of ideologies.
