Educational goals:
To consider 19th-century French literature starting with the interrelationships between fiction, history, art and psychoanalysis.
Course contents:
The "Cruel Text" theme in a series of studies in the area of decline, which verify the affirmation of a unique and contradictory vogue of cruelty in both both poetry and fiction. Exemplary figures are Villiers de Lisle-Adam, as well as Freud, Kraft-Ebing and Nordau from a medical and psychological perspective, and Nietsche in the philosophical realm. 19th-century culture follows this trend, extending it to the theatre, cinema, photography, and even involving the avantgarde. In attempting to delineate a geography of this theme, reasons, modalities and metamorphoses are queried and the cultural tensions which in many ways can be said to begin with Artaud and Bataille.
