AbstractThe "subject" of poetry in the work of Denise Desautels is neither individual nor collective. Though always singular, the subject nonetheless finds expression through several "voices", in general the voices of other creative people - painters, photographers or sculptors - with whom the speaking I seems to find community. This article explores the different ways of "being together" in poetic speech and the type of enunciative ethos that can be found — particularly in Cimetières: la rage muette — to underly a type of writing with several voices, one that transcends classic oppositions between identity and alterity or individuality and collectivity to establish the conditions for the emergence of a new subjectivity.

In History of Sevarambes (Histoire des Sévarambes) (1677), a Utopian novel presented as an historical and geographical work, Denis Veiras resorts to the usual travel-writing tropes, including that of the “autopsy” –the eye-witness account– to give credence to his narrative. However, despite his claim to veracity, the story is persistently disrupted from within, destabilized by the various inter-weaving voices, which challenge the witness's epistemological coherence; by the presence of hearsay inherent in the first-hand relationship; by the dystopian elements that subtly chip away at this perfect world. These cracks in the credibility affect both the ethnography and the historiography, of Captain Siden's relationship and slap uncertainty on it, a little like the Histories of Herodotus, inventor of the notion of autopsies (autoptes), of eye-witness evidence, who is constantly suspected of untruths in his paradigmatic descriptions of Ancient Egypt.

Given the Internet, as well as other tools that can be used from one's home, the library must rethink its place within society and the services it provides. In order for the profession to adapt to constant evolution, it is important to underscore the facilities and public services of the library if it wishes to preserve customer loyalty and ensure its continued relevance. In this regard, this new dimension, which significantly changes the relationship of libraries with the public, often questions their role and character. How does one come to terms with new publics, new users and new expectations that go far beyond the traditional services offered by libraries?

Alterity is the capacity to recognize the other person in her unique dimension, specific and inalienable. Another person in her human dignity, intrinsically different than myself and without any link to my own history, my biases, my beliefs, and my more or less conscious altruistic identifications.A person whom, with her differences, will broaden my vision of the world and my own mental boundaries in order to accept and respect her as she is, without any agenda.

Hélène Dorion, like several poets and thinkers, favours a hermeneutical interpretation of poetry, not out of touch with reality, but expressing a specific viewpoint of the world. The reality depicted by Dorion in her work is a living reality, an individual's attempt to bond with the world, to become one with it. The poetic images of time and space in Les états du relief and Les murs de la grotte convey this desire to internalize reality and become a part of it.

On considère traditionnellement l'interprétation allégorique comme une défense face aux critiques que les premiers philosophes Ioniens ont adressées aux poètes pour leur représentation de la divinité. Ainsi, l'allégorie grecque aurait été au coeur d'une polémique théologique entre les poètes et les philosophes ou plus largement au coeur de l’opposition de la philosophie au mythe. Il est pourtant désormais admis que la relation entre le logos et le muthos ne peut se réduire à une telle antinomie. Il est donc essentiel de redéfinir à son tour le rôle de l’allégorie afin de nuancer son caractère apologétique et son cadre polémique. L’entreprise a déjà été entamée par la recherche des deux dernières décennies et c’est dans cette actualisation historiographique que souhaite s’inscrire ce mémoire. L’organisation du développement …

The expression “Gnostic Empedocles” refers to the summary of the teachings of this philosopher presented by Hippolytus of Rome in the Refutation of All Heresies. Above all, it concerns the notice devoted to Marcion and his disciples, who were accused of following the poems of Empedocles rather than the Gospel. However, Hippolytus is inspired by the readings of Empedocles provided by different groups of Gnostics. This interpretatio gnostica was also known in Christian circles. The analysis of this interpretation, based on the notice about Marcion, allows us to propose a new interpretation of Bardaisan's thought — mentioned by Hippolytus — as an unknown testimony of the reception of Empedocles.
