Scientific instructions for travellers
2011-03-18 09:30
Scientific instructions for travellers
The proliferation of inquiries, questionnaires, and directions for scientific travellers is a defining feature of the early modern period, ranging from Humanist agendas for Continental journeys to formal initiatives by Spanish authorities concerned with colonial administration. Exceptional growth in this practice occurred in a variety of seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth-century contexts. This conference explores the traditions and preoccupations behind this activity in a series of different locations.
With participants from the UK, Ireland, Italy, Denmark, and Brazil, the conference will address different national and disciplinary traditions, including the contribution of chorography; directions for collecting the natural world; the institutional role of the Consejo de Indias; instructions for astronomers; travel in the Portuguese Atlantic world; the development of fieldwork practices; and the work of surveying in nineteenth-century Ireland.
“Texts, Contexts, Culture” is funded under the Higher Education Authority, under PRTLI4 http://www.hea.ie
The conference is supported by generous funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation (http://www.mellon.org).

Philippe Lejeune
åÇ Par monts et par vaux : Bombelles et AzaÌøs åÈ
Dans le cadre de ses recherches sur les origines du journal personnel en France entre 1750 et 1815, Philippe Lejeune pr̩sentera deux exemples, l’un traditionnel, l’autre novateur, de pratique du journal de voyage. En 1781, le marquis de Bombelles parcourt la Suisse en tenant un journal dont il envoie d’abord des extraits ÌÊ sa femme, avant d’essayer d’en tirer un r̩cit instructif et plaisant ÌÊ usage public. Ses papiers ayant ̩t̩ saisis plus tard par les autorit̩s r̩volutionnaires, nous avons aujourd’hui sous les yeux l’essentiel du åÇ dossier g̩n̩tique åÈ de ce travail rh̩torique assez conventionnel. En 1800, le philosophe et musicien AzaÌøs invente un dispositif pour ̩crire en marchant, afin de rapprocher le plus possible le moment de l’expression de celui de l’impression, et il va mouiller son papier sous la grande cascade du cirque de Gavarnie. Malheureusement son journal original a disparu, nous ne le connaissons que par des copies et par sa publication sous forme de livre (Un mois de s̩jour dans les Pyr̩n̩es, 1809). Les deux hommes, malgr̩ leur opposition apparente, se rejoignent dans un m̻me goÌÈt de la communication et un m̻me amour de la montagne.

Philippe Lejeune a enseign̩ la litt̩rature fran̤aise ÌÊ l’Universit̩ Paris-Nord Villetaneuse jusqu’en 2004. Ses travaux portent sur l’autobiographie (Le Pacte autobiographique, Seuil, 1975, On autobiography, Minnesota University Press, 1989 ; Moi aussi, Seuil, 1986 ; Les Brouillons de soi, Seuil, 1998 ; Signes de vie, Seuil, 2005) et sur le journal personnel (Le Moi des demoiselles : enqu̻te sur le journal de jeune fille, Seuil, 1993 ; Cher ̩cran…, Seuil, 2000 ; Le journal intime, histoire et anthologie, avec Catherine Bogaert, Textuel, 2006 ; On Diary, The University of Hawai’i Press, 2009). Il a fond̩ en 1992 l’Association pour l’Autobiographie, qui recueille et archive les ̩crits personnels des gens ordinaires. Il pr̩pare actuellement un ouvrage intitul̩ Aux origines du journal personnel. France, 1750-1815 qu’on peut consulter en ligne sur son site “Autopacte”. (www.autopacte.org)

åÇ Journaux de voyage r̩dig̩s en fran̤ais par des jeunes filles
de l’aristocratie russe (1780-1840) åÈ
D̬s la fin du XVIIIe si̬cle, mais surtout durant les premi̬res d̩cennies du XIXe, de nombreuses femmes et jeunes filles russes issues de l’aristocratie ont voyag̩ ÌÊ travers l’Europe. Beaucoup d’entre elles tenaient des journaux, et le voyage est un pr̩texte de choix pour cette activit̩. La plupart de ces journaux sont cependant rest̩s sous forme de manuscrits in̩dits dans les archives russes. Dans quel but voyageaient-elles ? Comment se d̩roulaient leurs voyages ? Quel b̩n̩fice en tiraient-elles ? Et pour quoi, pour qui ̩crivaient-elles ? Apr̬s un parcours global de ces journaux de voyage seront pr̩sent̩s plus en d̩tail, et compar̩s, les journaux åÇ parall̬les åÈ tenus par quatre cousines ̢g̩es d’une vingtaine d’ann̩es, voyageant ÌÊ travers l’Europe (surtout en Italie) dans les ann̩es 1840.

Fran̤oise Simonet-Tenant
åÇ De l’Ìägypte ÌÊ l’Inde :
de Jean Cocteau (Maalesh) ÌÊ Jean-Christophe Bailly (Ph̬dre en Inde) åÈ
De mars ÌÊ mai 1949, Jean Cocteau part pour une tourn̩e th̢̩trale dans le bassin m̩diterran̩en (Ìägypte, Liban, Turquie, Gr̬ce), pour y jouer des pi̬ces de Racine, de Feydeau, d’Anouilh, de Sartre et de Cocteau. Son Journal d’une tourn̩e de th̢̩tre est publi̩ par Gallimard en 1949. D’aoÌÈt 1989 ÌÊ janvier 1990, Jean-Christophe Bailly s̩journe ÌÊ trois reprises en Inde pour cr̩er Ph̬dre avec des acteurs indiens et en revient avec Ph̬dre en Inde (Plon, 1990). Cocteau et Bailly ne sont pas de simples voyageurs touristes, dont ils r̩cusent la posture, mais des hommes de th̢̩tre dont le journal de voyage est ̩galement un journal d’exp̩rience professionnelle. Les deux journaux sont anim̩s par un double mouvement, d’extraversion (les diaristes notent les choses vues) et d’intraversion (ils notent le retentissement intime du choc de l’ailleurs). Nous examinerons le(s) r̫le(s) que tient le journal lors de cette exp̩rience de l’̩tranget̩ (non seulement trace m̩morielle, il est aussi une indispensable boussole pour l’occidental d̩pays̩), et l’influence de la perspective de la publication (place du pittoresque, du morceau de bravoure descriptif, ̩ventuelles op̩rations de r̩̩criture). Enfin, nous scruterons les particularit̩s de ces deux journaux de voyage qui suscitent chez le lecteur des effets diff̩rents. L’un est celui d’un esth̬te, homme de lettres connu, qui porte encore l’empreinte de l’̩poque coloniale ; le second est celui d’un intellectuel qui prend soin de s’afficher comme un esprit de l’̬re post-coloniale.

ABSTRACTS
Philippe Lejeune
Through valleys and hills: Bombelles et AzaÌøs
Philippe Lejeune, who is currently working on the origins of personal diaries in France between 1750 and 1815, will present two examples of travel diary practises, one traditional, the other innovative. In 1781, while travelling through Switzerland, the Marquis de Bombelles kept a diary, parts of which he sent to his wife before endeavouring to turn it into an instructive and entertaining account, intended for the public. His papers were later seized by the revolutionary authorities, and we can now consult most of the “genetic dossier” of what would otherwise be a rather conventional rhetorical exercise. In 1800, AzaÌøs, a philosopher and musician, invented a device which allowed him to write and walk at the same time. His intention was to bridge the gap between impression and expression. He even goes to wet his paper under the great Cirque de Gavarnie waterfall. Unfortunately, his original diary has disappeared. We only know it via copies and a publication in book form (Un mois de s̩jour dans les Pyr̩n̩es, 1809). Although apparently very different, the two men share the same wish to communicate and the same love of mountains.

Travel diaries written in French by young women from the Russian aristocracy
Many Russian women of various ages from an aristocratic background, travelled through Europe from the end of the 18th century, especially during the first decades of the 19th century. Many of them kept a diary. Travelling of course provides an ideal impetus for this type of activity. Many of these diaries have been preserved in the form of unpublished manuscripts in Russian archives. Why did these women travel? How did their journeys unfold? What advantage did they gain from it? What and whom did they write for? A general overview of these travel diaries will be followed by a more detailed presentation and comparison of the parallel diaries of four cousins, all of them around 20 years of age, who travelled through Europe (mainly Italy), in the 1840s.

Stendhal and the practice of travel writing. The digitization of his travel journal manuscripts.
Beginning with some general reflections on Stendhal’s ideas and his practice of keeping a diary while travelling, this paper will highlight the advantages of presenting an electronic edition of the same travel journals, held on the site www.manuscrits-de-stendhal.org, to serve as a complement to existing or future print editions. Thanks to the on-line visualisation of manuscript pages, the processes of writing and rewriting at work in Stendhal’s travel journals, as well as the diversity and evolution of his practices, can be presented with greater clarity.

Fran̤oise Simonet-Tenant
From Egypt to India, and from Jean Cocteau (Maalesh) to Jean-Christophe Bailly (Ph̬dre en Inde)
Between March and May 1949, Jean Cocteau undertook a theatre tour of the Mediterranean basin (taking in Egypt, the Lebanon, Turkey, and Greece), where he performed the plays of Racine, Feydeau, Anouilh, Sartre, and Cocteau himself. His Journal d’une tourn̩e de th̢̩tre was published by Gallimard in 1949. Between August 1989 and January 1990, Jean-Christophe Bailly made three trips to India in order to stage Ph̬dre with Indian actors, an experience related in his book Ph̬dre en Inde (Plon, 1990). Cocteau and Bailly were no mere tourists, consciously eschewing such an approach to travel, but rather theatrical impresarios whose travel journals are also accounts of their professional experiences. The two journals thus reflect a double movement, of extraversion (the diarists note what they see) and introversion (they provide an intimate account of the shock of “somewhere else”). This paper explores the role(s) of the journal in the experience of foreignness (not only as a memorial trace, but also as an indispensable compass for the displaced westerner), together with the influence of the possibility of publication (including the place of the picturesque and descriptive purple passages, and possible rewritings). To conclude, we will examine the particular qualities of these two travel journals, which produce distinctive effects on their readers. The former is the work of an aesthete and celebrated man of letters, who stills bears the mark of the colonial era; while the latter is that of an intellectual who is very careful to present himself as a post-colonial spirit.

'"The American Revolution" and America's Revolution' by Patrick Griffin, Madden-Hennebry Professor of History at the University of Notre Dame
2011-03-03 16:00
FieldEarly American History, Atlantic History and Irish-America
ProfilePatrick Griffin was named the Madden-Hennebry Professor in 2008. He comes to Notre Dame from the University of Virginia. More precisely, he returns to Notre Dame. Griffin holds a BA from Notre Dame, an MA from Columbia University, and a PhD from Northwestern University. His work explores the intersection of colonial American and early modern Irish and British history. As such, it focuses on Atlantic-wide themes and dynamics. He has published work on what we could call conventional Irish-American history-the study of the movement of peoples and cultures from Ireland to America, as well as the process of adaptation-but he also examines the ways in which Ireland and America were linked-and differed-during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. He has looked at revolution and rebellion, movement and migration, and colonization and conquest in each society in comparative perspective.
Current ProjectGriffin is working now on two other projects: a comparative study of the colonization and transformation of Ireland and Virginia during the seventeenth century; and a biography of Sir William Johnson, an Irish Catholic-born British official who was regarded by the Mohawk as one of their own and who also became an architect of British empire in America at the time of the Seven Years’ War.
