L’Écriture est la peinture de la voix honours and celebrates the inestimable contributions that Professor Nicholas Cronk has made to our understanding of the Enlightenment. As director of the University of Oxford’s Voltaire Foundation, he has played a decisive role in eighteenth-century studies. In particular he has shaped our knowledge of Voltaire as a writer, celebrity and era-defining figure whose influence has continued to be felt through the centuries. Comprising essays by a host of internationally eminent scholars, this volume is a fitting tribute to the esteem and affection in which Nicholas Cronk is held as a colleague, teacher and mentor. These sixteen essays reflect his varied research interests, exploring questions central to the eighteenth century, such as the writing process, justice, revolution, as well as the legacy of the Enlightenment, and focussing on the central figure in Nicholas Cronk’s research: Voltaire. In sections devoted to Voltaire’s writing practices, to his involvement in political, literary and religious polemics, and finally to his legacy, the essays build on Nicholas Cronk’s scholarship and editorial achievements, opening up a new chapter in research on Voltaire. This volume is complemented by an online collection of essays which speak to other topics central to Nicholas Cronk’s interests, such as authorial identities, correspondence and aesthetics.

Cet ouvrage se penche sur le regard comme thème récurrent dans les oeuvres suivantes : La Princesse de Clèves, La Nouvelle Héloïse, La Chartreuse de Parme et Le Ravissement de Lol V. Stein. Comment s'explique la place centrale qu'occupe le regard dans les scènes les plus importantes de ces romans d'amour ? C'est d'abord la question du rapport du désir à son objet qui est prise dans cette problématique du voir, et qui se pose ici. En s'appuyant sur une approche qui associe à la théorie psychanalytique, une attention particulière portée à la réalité textuelle du discours, cette étude cherche à montrer la corrélation qui existe entre différentes manières d'explorer le rôle du regard, en tant que partie intégrante de l'amour et du désir, et dont l'enjeu concerne aussi la pratique de l'écriture, dans son lien au désir. L'auteur s'est donc intéressée aux diverses manifestations textuelles du regard et aux fonctions paradigmatiques qui les déterminent, révélatrices d'une forme de narcissisme du regard, en tant que celui-ci a à voir avec la mère, pour soulever finalement le problème de l'identité sexuelle des personnages et toute la question du désir féminin.

This collection of essays considers the political, social, literary and artistic impact of the pervasive dichotomy of truth and lies in the context of French society and culture. A fundamental element of our social existance, the notion of le mensonge underpins how we participate in and respond to all aspects of society, from the political process to the capacity of art, literature and other aesthetic forms to fulfill a representative function. This book explores the ways in which French society and culture is regulated by the overriding oppositional structure of truth and lies, and the impact this has on both collective and individual existence. The theme brings together research from diverse disciplines of the Humanities, from political science to literature, film, music and visual arts, in a work that will be of great relevance to a wide range of students and researchers alike. As such, the theme serves as a means of gaining an insight into the range and scope of research currently being conducted in French studies. The book will be useful as a support text for a range of academic courses including those in the fields of cultural studies, literary studies, political studies and sociology. On a larger scale, it posits the theme’s potential to develop as an independent area of study, and offers a starting point for future academic study devoted to the idea of le mensonge.
