Fictions en quête d’auteur : immersion, performance et auctorialité à l’ère du storytelling transmédial by Danielle Perrot-Corpet

“…Les pratiques contre-narratives à l’ère du « storyliving » (par exemple chez Sophie Calle, Jean-Charles Massera, Yves Pagès...) manifestent une « surconscience différentialiste » (au sens de la revendication urgente de la frontière entre réalité et fiction) : en exhibant le jeu de rôle passif, irresponsable, auquel nous convie le storytelling néolibéral, elles rendent « actif esthétiquement » le problème du nécessaire désassujettissement de leur lecteur/spectateur, invité à s’émanciper des identifications prescrites en se faisant auteur de soi-même.…”

Sujeição e agência em situações de violência contra as mulheres: trajetórias de superação e ressignificação by Érika Nunes de Medeiros Ferreira Borges, Eliane Gonçalves

“…The study focuses on specific characteristics and similarities in the analyzed trajectories and allows to conclude that: (i) despite the relative delay in understanding the context of violence in its early signs, (ii) assigning idiosyncratic traits to partners such as explosive behavior or jealousy and (iii) the reluctance and hesitation to seek help at moment of violence, this group of women managed to give a new meaning to their lives, indicating a desire to overcome what they went through, something already or very close to the outcome in the narratives of them all.

This narrative reverberates to this day in discourses about “saving” Afghan women, which paints a picture of a conflict-prone society where women are reduced to a monolithic, voiceless category. …”
