Item A POSTCOLONIAL ECOCRITICAL READING OF FOUR SELECTED NOVELS BY NAIPAUL, COETZEE, ANTHONY AND GHOSH(University of algiers2 Abu El Kacem Saad Allah جامعة الجزائر 2 أبو القاسم سعد الله, 2021) BENDJEMIL, Khawla; Zeghar, Dalila (Directeur de thèse)This thesis examines the element of nature in postcolonial unnamed African country, South Africa, Trinidad and China in V. S. Naipaul’s A Bend in the River (1979), John Maxwell Coetzee’s Waiting for the Barbarians (1980), Michael Anthony’s Bright Road to El Dorado (1983), and Amitav Ghosh's River of Smoke (2011). The study also examines the environment that the characters inhabit (village, town or city), and the role of the colonizer in determining the relationship between the colonizer and the colonized.Item Cognitive Dissonance in Robert A. Heinlein’s Starship Troopers(University of Algiers 2 Abou El Kacem Saadallah جامعة الجزائر 02 أبو القاسم سعد الله, 2019) Souhali, Hichem; Zeghar, Dalila (Directeur de thèse)This dissertation studies cognitive dissonance in Robert A. Heinlein’s Starship Troopers. The chosen novel is often labeled as a ‘Fascist Utopia’; an oxymoron that sums up the essence of its tone. The aim is to detect and analyze the scope of dissonance within Heinlein’s narrative and to extrapolate it to his readership. For this purpose, I propose a multidisciplinary approach with two major orientations: close reading (a context- dependent psychonarratological angle) and distant reading (context-free sentiment analysis of his readership’s responses). The close reading section comprises a review of the writer’s biography: his life, works, and political commitment. This part is combined with a socio-historical study of the writer’s anchorage. Thus, Heinlein is revealed as a complex writer with an undeniable craft in sending mixed signals to his readership. On the other hand, the distant reading section purports to place the readers at the center of the thesis’ concern. Hence, cognitive dissonance is envisaged as a transmissible condition – from author to reader. At the level of the theoretical scaffolding, I set a wide range of theory running the gamut from new historicism to cognitive psychology- passing by reception theories, readers’ response theory, and psychonarratology. The works of Darko Suvin, Frederic Jameson, Leon Festinger, Dixon & Bertolussi and Franco Moretti are used to elaborate a ground base theoretical and methodological proposition
