"...et que mon livre porte à la foule future“Anna de Noailles – Belle Époque Author and Agent of Modernism

在她的一生中，作为一个成功的作家，文学政治家，以及艺术和羽翼未丰的作家的赞助人，安娜·德·诺埃尔（1876-1933）是巴黎美女中最受尊敬的文学人物之一Époque。鉴于希腊和罗马尼亚血统的作者迄今为止获得的学术关注很少，这个项目代表了安娜·德·诺埃莱斯作为《美女Époque》作者的杰出成就，以及她在现代主义文学中扮演的关键角色的开创性和系统性调查。这个项目将试图确定安娜·德·诺埃尔是如何在男性主导的文学领域为自己开辟了一个突出的利基，作为作家、评论家和赞助人，并在文学现代主义的演变中发挥了关键作用。诺埃尔在这方面的重要性可以归因于她以一种独特的方式从女性角度重新构建哲学，美学，主题和主题的能力，以及她作为沙龙作家，评论家和初出茅庐作家的赞助人对巴黎文坛的重要贡献。这些因素加上她对社会的承诺，确保了诺埃尔在一个重大动荡时期成为巴黎文坛的杰出推动者和动摇者。这个项目将调查小说、散文和小说等，这些作品在很大程度上没有受到评论性的关注，在这些作品中，诺埃尔的特殊地位占据了突出地位。由于她的出身，她经常被塑造成一个充满异国情调的东方人——当适合她的目的时，她会自觉地精心安排这个角色，正如那个时期前卫艺术家对她的许多肖像所展示的那样——尽管如此，这种异国情调还是导致文学评论家不公正地将诺埃尔的身份和作品与刻板印象混为一谈，即无限的肉欲、非理性、道德松弛和威胁女性气质。在此背景下，这个项目将阐明诺埃尔作为一个经常受到东方主义掠夺的文化地区移民的女儿的流亡经历，以及这种遗产如何在确立诺埃尔作为法国作家的地位时引发身份和合法性的冲突。

Famed during her lifetime as a successful writer, literary politician, as well as a patron of the arts and of fledgling authors, Anna de Noailles (1876-1933) was one of the most highly regarded literary figures of the Parisian Belle Époque. Given that the author of Greek and Romanian ancestry has until now garnered very little scholarly attention, this project represents a pioneering and systematic investigation of Anna de Noailles’ outstanding accomplishment as Belle Époque author, as well as her role as a key player in literary modernism. This project will seek to establish how Anna de Noailles carved out a prominent niche for herself as an author, critic and patron in a male-dominated literary field, and played a pivotal role in the evolution of literary modernism. Noailles’ importance in this regard can be attributed to both her ability to reframe - in an idiosyncratic fashion - philosophy, aesthetics, subject matter and motifs from a female perspective, as well as her vital contributions to the Parisian literary scene as a salonnière, critic and patron of fledgling authors. These factors in tandem with her social commitment helped secure Noailles’ place as a prominent mover and shaker in the Parisian literary scene during a period of major upheaval. This project will investigate, among other things, novels, prose pieces and auto-fictions that have largely escaped critical attention, in which Noailles’ idiosyncratic position figure prominently. Often cast as an exotic oriental on account of her origins – a role she would self-consciously orchestrate when it suited her purposes, as illustrated in numerous portraits of her by avant-garde artists of the period – this exoticism has nonetheless led literary critics to unjustly conflate Noailles’ identity and oeuvre with stereotypical notions of boundless sensuality, irrationality, moral laxity and threatening femininity. Against this backdrop, this project will illuminate Noailles‘ experience of exile as the daughter of immigrants from a cultural region often subject to the depredations of Orientalism, and how this heritage gives rise to conflicts of identity and legitimation in establishing Noailles’ status as a French writer.
