Les sociétés occidentales ont subi de profondes transformations depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, et le champ de la santé n'y fait pas exception alors que ces sociétés doivent désormais répondre à des problématiques, aspirations et exigences auxquelles elles n'avaient jusqu'alors jamais été confrontées (Ewald, 1986; Guest, 1993, Bairoch, 1997; Ornran, 2005; Judt, 2007). Ce contexte d'après-guerre a fortement contribué à l'émergence du terme médicalisation dans la littérature sociologique à la fin des années 1960. Deux objectifs ont guidé notre démarche de recherche : clarifier, d'une part, les multiples significations mobilisées par le terme médicalisation et les transformations qu'elles ont subies, et saisir, d'autre part les différents cadres sociologiques qui investissent le champ sémantique de ce terme depuis son émergence dans le vocabulaire …

The vision which French readers have of Edgar Poe's Tales still tells of the suppression by Baudelaire of one third of them. Through our work, we turned back to a complete rendering of the whole 56 tales, allowing us to achieve a translation that both respects the original text and is the result of a long and rich dialogue about every aspect of the tales.

This article discusses what we have termed a “narrative of absence” of economic life in Quebec literature based on the case of David Fennario and his autobiographical work Without a Parachute (1972), translated by Gilles Hénault and published by Éditions Parti pris in 1977. The book's narrator, employee of the company Simpsons, student and Marxist militant, criticizes and takes stock of society's injustices. On one hand, we show how the diary of the “worker” criticizes working hours from the perspective of a collective workers' memory. On the other, we analyze how revolutionary militancy in Without a Parachute remains a figure of speech, even of lyricism. By borrowing from the history of publishing, literary history and the study of representations, we propose to examine the relationships between Without a Parachute and the catalogue of Parti pris as well as the historicity of representations of the worker and the militant, two sides of the same coin.

This article examines the representation of Québécois literature—its people and its institution—in recent fiction (2018-2022): Le meilleur dernier roman by Claude La Charité, Les querelleurs by France Théoret, À propos du Joug by Patrice Lessard, L'impromptu by Catherine Mavrikakis and Jardin radio by Charlotte Biron. The hypothesis is that academic knowledge gains in visibility in the contemporary era and consequently loses in pertinence. The discussion seeks, therefore, to illustrate how the scenario of the “emergence of literature” and that of the “entrance into literature” presented in the corpus, enables the reading of problematized literary values, placing literary creativity in opposition to literary dogma, generally academic, without being able to liberate itself. The literature of Québec has now come full circle and is ripe for an appraisal.

À ses débuts au XIXe siècle et jusque dans la première moitié du XXe, le roman social français a accordé une place de choix au travail. Si l’objet littéraire est relégué à l’arrière-plan après la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, il connaît un important regain dans les textes actuels, alors que ses référents empiriques ont considérablement changé. Il en résulte que les représentations contemporaines, pour notables que soient les différences formelles qui les démarquent des antécédentes, ont en commun avec elles d’être structurées par les mêmes thèmes fondamentaux : la mort est l’un d’eux, cependant qu’elle affecte désormais autant l’individu au travail que le travail lui-même. Cette thèse prend acte d’une telle continuité disruptive. La lecture des textes contemporains qu’elle propose est soucieuse de leur inscription à …

The article presents a few key elements to understand how the periodical Police Journal (1942-1954) was founded and how it situated itself in the field of Quebec periodicals. Firstly, we analyze the founding of the journal, produced by the eponymous publisher Police-Journal, the most important publisher of popular literature in the 1950s. The second section looks at sales, distribution and readership. The third section is devoted to the authors of Police Journal. Finally, the last section summarizes the criticisms the periodical was subjected to. By reviewing these various aspects, we hope to shed some light on the editorial operations that made Police Journal the most important true crime magazine in Quebec in the 1940s and first half of the 1950s.

The end of the nineteenth century left its mark on literary history through its taste for excess, emphasis, and transgression. In their portrayals of consensual incestuous relationships within the same family, Élémir Bourges, Rachilde, and Catulle Mendès draw on the taboo to sharpen the boundary between the licit and the illicit. While Decadence was preoccupied with staging its own demise, its literary treatment of incest shows it on the brink – aware of its self-destruction, yet equally conscious of an imminent return to order.

Although male homosexuality is never explicitly named in L'Autre vue (1904) by Belgian author Georges Eekhoud, numerous clues suggest that it is the novel's central subject and that it can be reread from a queer perspective. Theories of the unreliable narrator reveal the presence of not one but two homosexual characters: Paridael and Bergmans. Once unmasked, the latter provides access to a militant discourse in favor of legitimizing homosexuality in the novel's central section – Paridael's diary – by merging two levels of reading: an explicit social and political discourse that conceals an implicit homosexual one.
