Louise Kari M茅reau (University College Cork/Trinity College Dublin), 'Cynisme et f茅minisme, une n茅cessaire convergence autofictionnelle ?'

Dans un monde en perp茅tuelle mutation, le cynisme et le f茅minisme 茅mergent comme deux forces r茅flexives puissantes qui interrogent les normes sociales et les constructions identitaires. Cette pr茅sentation propose d'explorer la rencontre entre ces deux courants de pens茅e, en s'int茅ressant particuli猫rement 脿 la dimension autofictionnelle qui leur est intrins猫que, notamment dans les romans d鈥檃utrices contemporaines. 脌 travers une analyse de textes litt茅raires et th茅oriques de Virginie Despentes, Christine Angot et Camille Laurens, j'examinerai comment le cynisme, souvent per莽u comme un antidote au d茅senchantement depuis le 19eme si猫cle, peut enrichir le discours f茅ministe en offrant une perspective critique sur les injustices syst茅miques. Cela me permettra d'ouvrir le d茅bat sur la mani猫re dont l'autofiction, gr芒ce au mordant du cynisme, permet aux voix f茅minines de s'exprimer, en faisant du r茅cit personnel une critique sociale.

Louise Kari M茅reau is a lecturer of French at the University of Cork and a visiting research fellow in Trinity College Dublin where she did her PhD. Her doctoral research, funded by the Claude and Vincenette Pichois Award, focused on cynicism in the novels of Frederic Beigbeder and Virginie Despentes (1990-2010). She is working on the publication of her first monograph and continues to explore cynicism and autofiction in contemporary French novels.
