| Research Abstract |
How do modern writers approach sleep and dreams? The focus of our study will be on the importance of sleep in its various manifestations -the falling to sleep, dreams, half-sleep, the awakening- in modern French literature. After two years of research, it appears to us that sleep doesn't necessarily imply the loss of all consciousness. Indeed, numerous writers regard dreams as an extremely lucid form of consciousness rather than as pure fantasies. In their perspective, the various aspects of sleep -with the exception of sleep without dreams- are as many manifestations of a conflict between day-time and night-time consciousness. During sleep, the I, far from disappearing, takes on new ways of functioning.
These matters are analyzed in the following monographs :
1. Taichi HARA has shown that Lautreamont has built up his poetry by establishing parallels between reading and dreaming in his imaginary world ;
2. Takahisa HONDA has dwelt upon the role of half-sleep in the works of Michel Leiris ;
3. Masanori TSUKAMOTO has studied Paul Valery's thoughts on the relation between day-time and night-time consciousness, focusing mainly on the relations between dreams and language.
We insist on the fact that dreams intrigue countless writers because they are a form of consciousness, a strange one without doubt, but a lucid one nonetheless. Sleep deserves to be studied in its tension with day-time consciousness.
We would like to undertake a more ambitious study that would offer a synthesis of the results we have obtained in "La "poetique du reve" dans la litterature francaise moderne" (1998-2000) and "Representations du sommeil dans la litterature francaise moderne (2001-2003).
