Ce mémoire en création littéraire comprend, entrelacés, un récit et un essai qui correspondent respectivement au volet création et réflexion de mon mémoire. Interagissant sans cesse l'un sur l'autre, ils cheminent ensemble. Au fil des cinq chapitres chronologiquement présentés, le texte relate l'expérience réalisée par une narratrice-écrivaine lors d'un séjour forcé à l'hôpital puis pendant un long périple sur la mappemonde, deux espaces-temps à travers lesquels elle mène la quête de son grand-père disparu ainsi que celle d'écrire l'histoire qu'elle est en train de vivre. Le premier chapitre, sans titre, fait office de préface au récit et pose d'emblée la question de l'écriture de celui-ci. Dès les premières pages du chapitre suivant, Hôpital, le récit prend le dessus. L'histoire raconte, par une écriture poétique brute, …

Over the past few decades, the trajectories of the dead have become increasingly complex. The usual triptych of trajectories of the dead – a death at home, a church ceremony, a burial in the cemetery – is no longer predominant and gives way to diffuse movements, sometimes over long distances. This article intends to describe and analyze the trajectories of the dead observed in funeral parlors and cemeteries in Douarnenez, and more generally in south Finistère, Brittany. The aim of this article is to examine the processes at work in the restructuring of the trajectories of the dead in France and investigate the symbolic dimension of post-mortem displacements.

If it were to become a sovereign state, Québec would benefit from the addition of maritime areas — territorial sea, contiguous zone, exclusive economic zone, continental shelf — the width of which would be measured from straight or normal baselines. Overlapping areas would then exist and be subject to the delimitation of maritime boundaries in accordance with international law. In light of cases and state practice, and given relevant circumstances, various methods of delimitation are suggested.

This research is a continuation of the Archipel project which focuses on the demographic, social, and economic history of the French archipelago of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon from 1763 to 1920. It seeks to determine whether it is possible to identify the sociodemographic particularities of this population engaged almost exclusively in maritime activities. It may be recalled that the author's previous work used the data from the civil registers and from censuses covering the period 1763 to 1850. The text deals a new phase of this project with the analysis of the censuses of 1872, 1887 and 1892 for the island of Saint-Pierre only. If this research does not presume to answer a very large number of questions, it opens nevertheless a window onto a better understanding of the realities of this French-speaking maritime population of the Gulf of St. Lawrence during the last third of the 19th century.

According to a very high density of traffic, the French coastline has suffered from maritime pollution since the 1960's (Torrey Canyon, Amoco Cadiz, Erika, Ievoli Sun, Prestige, etc.). The risk of maritime pollution is changing nature and complexity due to increase and diversification of good transported by sea. In France, until a recent period, only the State staff was prepared to face the management of these events through contingency plans (POLMAR Mer plan for response at sea and POLMAR Terre plan for response on shoreline). The Civil Safety Modernisation Law of 13th August 2004 has restructured the civil safety trough a new ORSEC system which includes the creation of a local contingency plan in order to help local authorities to be prepared. In the same time, local and regional councils' duties have reinforced by the decentralization and the European Union has been more and more involved in maritime safety. That's why it is essential to promote a coherent and complementary approach between all these stakeholders. The “Infra POLMAR” process, lead by Vigipol since 2005 on the North coast of Brittany, aims at providing an operational response for all these stakes at local level.

Three of the four novels published to date by Éléonore Létourneau (born in 1981) feature characters whose search for meaning translates into the need to leave their milieu in order to reinvent themselves somewhere else. From one novel to the next, the perspective widens: initially motivated by individual reasons, the approach aligns with critical notions concerning travel, tourism and migration. Létourneau's work thus deepens the aporia of cosmopolitanism and works to “de-exoticize” the Elsewhere by reminding readers that her experience is intimately linked to the search for a “home.” Our study of her oeuvre highlights the various motifs associated with the Elsewhere by signaling how they lead to the establishment of an ethic of the “home” that is collective rather than identity-based, deterritorialized rather than local or native. In so doing, we show how Létourneau's work positions itself in these new approaches to the Elsewhere occurring in Québécois novels of the past decade.
