Panel. The Arc of Yoknapatawpha
Black Music, a Prelude to the Invention of Faulkner’s World: The Seminal/Pivotal Function of Place / Danièle Pitavy-Souques, Université de Bourgogne“Black Music” will be examined as a founding text, where Faulkner becomes an American writer from the South. Here, for the first time, the text tells a story founded on dramatic events and set in a place of Faulkner’s own invention that represents the first draft of the fictional world that will become Yoknapatawpha. The use of newspaper clippings inspired by the collages of avant-garde painters like Braque causes a first territorial shift. The creation of wild sexualized backwoods that speak of the dream and the fury gives the story its intriguing role in the development of Faulkner’s literary career. The complex notion of the Two Arcadias (Simon Schama, Landscape and Memory) will be used as a critical tool. Song and Silence: Unproductive Mourning in Go Down, Moses / Erin Kay Penner, Cornell UniversityOn this occasion it seems fitting to reconsider Faulkner’s investment in rewriting the language of mourning. In this paper I take up elegiac Faulkner in a somewhat unexpected place: with Rider of the story “Pantaloon in Black.” This year marks the seventieth anniversary of the publication of Go Down, Moses, in which the story appears. Through Rider, Faulkner fashions a new, deliberately un-productive figure of mourning that challenges the long shadow of Freud on our conception of grief and mourning. Taken as a whole, Go Down, Moses marks a radical departure from the aesthetic of black endurance that we remember from Faulkner’s characterization of Dilsey in The Sound and the Fury. Sanitizing Ike: Historical Revisionism and White Supremacy in The Reivers / Gavan Lennon, University of NottinghamFaulkner’s last narrator, Lucius Priest, has often been taken at his word. This paper repositions The Reivers within the larger Yoknapatawpha cycle by examining the irony of the novel’s narrative discourse by comparing it with sections from the rest of the cycle. It re-examines the reliability of Priest’s narration to excavate a conservative history-making project intended to influence a younger generation of white southerners. I focus particularly on the very different representations of Isaac McCaslin in The Reivers and Go Down, Moses to show how Faulkner provides a space for understanding the ironic dimensions of Priest’s narrative
La friche dans les photographies d’Eudora Welty : une réflexion sur la terre américaine dans le sud
Welty's photographs of landscapes represent the writer's early exploration of Mississippi, and reveal the aesthetic and philosophical approach to the American land that will be fictionalized later. Welty's vision of fallow land, especially, constitutes a meditation on man as well as on the South. By exploring the different meanings of the word « fallow » this paper shows the significance of Welty's photographs as signifiers of the identity and symbols of the land in the South.Pitavy-Souques Danièle.

Le Sud : territoire des femmes ?
The South : Womer's Territory ?
Women's fiction in the South establishes a territory in which to found their identity and cope with man's ambivalent attitude to time. The first part puts the emphasis on the technical devices used to establish a new space (structure, language, symbol). The second part analyses the original techniques devised by women to conciliate the flight of time with a desire for permanence with special reference to specific traits of the female imagination (myth and rite, primitivism, dialectics of time, district of appearances). The conclusion stresses love and daring.La fiction féminine dans le Sud établit un espace qui est à la fois conquête de leur identité et conciliation de leur attitude ambivalente envers le temps. Dans la première partie, on observe les techniques utilisées, travail sur la structure, le langage ou le symbole. Dans la seconde, on esquisse l'analyse de techniques originales pour rendre compte de l'essentielle dualité de l'homme, technique où sont valorisés les traits de l'imagination féminine, mythe et rite, dialectique de la temporalité, recours au primitivisme, refus de l'apparence. Deux constantes, l'affirmation du sens de l'humain et le goût du risque.Pitavy-Souques Danièle. Le Sud : territoire des femmes ?. In: Revue Française d'Etudes Américaines, N°23, février 1985.
