This article examines how symbolic violence manifests itself in Acadian and Caribbean literatures. It is defined as the colonial legacy, related to a subjectivity and to what presided over the logic that structured the slave trade to the West Indies and the deportation of the Acadians out of their lands inhabited since the beginning of the French colonization of the Americas. Antonine Maillet and Patrick Chamoiseau's need to deal with this situation thanks to a recourse to the imaginary is not addressed as a single outlet but as a «terrain» conducive to the advent of a liberation or, more prosaically, to a form of appeasement. The article thus takes the opportunity to reflect on the way in which this imaginary can modify reality, to improve it even, enhanced as it is by the word, by the tale and by a narration at times similar to religious or mystical practices.

AbstractIn analysing two “ stage entrance ” occurences of the libertine, Mozart and Da Ponte's Don Giovanni (1787) and Stravinsky and Auden's The Rake's Progress (1951), the article highlights transformations in the relationship towards death and the dead in Europe. Both operas also represent the rise and fall of the myth of Dom Juan and of this connection between the themes of the inconstancy of love and that of the insult and invitation to the dead.

Synthesizing interviews conducted in the summer of 2023, the article presents the human relations, artistic relationships and musical works of three Quebec composers who paid tribute to Serge Provost: À S. (2017) and Le signe de l'ombre (2022) by Hans Martin, La princesse n'avait d'yeux que pour la profondeur de l'univers (2019) by Jimmie LeBlanc and Voies impénétrables (2022) by Michel Gonneville are examined in their creative contexts, through the musical elaboration and according to the specific intentions of each composer, in order to match the different ways of rendering not only Provost's influence and teaching, but also the harmonic colors and technical procedures of his works. By bringing together the universes of these different composers, the present research provides a historical and aesthetic context for an important figure in Quebec's contemporary musical landscape.
