J’aime tout ce qui est joli, ainsi je t’aime : c’est là ce que l’on appelle un argument.

Absolutely floored by some cross-dressed seduction in Marivaux:
Tumblr media
Needless to say the chevalier here is a lady in breeches, and she seems fully ready until the very last second to marry the comtesse
Tumblr media
I literally gasped. The audacity. She *knows* she is going to have to step back from the engagement but she is still doing this. The reasons given to take the farce this far are flimsy beyond belief. Also why is she so good at being a rake
And then after the ruse is up:
Tumblr media
"my metamorphosis is not agreeable to your tender feelings, my dear countess. I would have led you far, if I could have kept you company" asdfghjklhfjfkvijbjsj are you kidding me
Neither of them are married by the end of the play. All I want is le chevalier having to exercise her seduction powers again to climb back from basically lying all the time to get her well-deserved and steamy ending. I want Marivaux fic, is what I'm saying. This is how we're starting the year

Photos of the Opera Comique next to Cafe Marivaux, named after the author of Triumph of Love. This is the theater that would be a descendant of Lestat’s troupe of actors. I thought it was fitting that they’re playing a French adaptation of Beauty and the Beast currently.
bonus- a cafe with a yellow awning called Claudia 😭

J'en ai bientôt fini avec les éléments biographiques de Marivaux (c'est super car j'en suis à la diapo 7 sur 32 du cours.)
Je n'aime pas Marivaux.
Je n'ai pas encore eu mon café j'attends Sab comme d'hab.
Je blast The Weeknd dans mes oreilles, je suis dans un café rempli de bourgeois... Ça me cringe un peu. Me sens pas à ma place dans les cafés comme ça.
Bref j'y retourne. J'ai UN MILLIARD de diapos à connaître par cœur.
PS : c'est ma faute aussi.

tagged by @elavoria in a kiss tag game... this is very unconventional for the tag but i don't think i've put it on here yet. a certain one of lunette's conquests... starting to tire of this 'game' she's playing
Said nothing: to a man begging that I speak. J’en suis venue à bout.  All this language which I’d got of novels, and plays, and romances; this language he, too, had used; fallen through the stage with him, and him trying to drag me down, too, I did not know what to do. I reached for his hand, warm in mine, and brought it to cold lips; and even when I raised the rest of him, I did not see nor feel my victory, in movements led by convention.

7. is there a series/book that got you into reading?
the first book i remember picking out myself (in a charity shop) was a book of short stories by enid blyton (the green story book??). and i don't quite trust my early-ish memories but i almost still feel the obsession coming over me. i don't remember that exact book though... i think my favourites ended up being the wishing-chair and the faraway tree
8. what is the first book you remember reading yourself?
this is harder because i know i read a hell of a lot in early primary school. mostly the reading-scheme sort of books that you get in school... there was a series with a dog and a magic key (biff??). and then the happy families series by allan ahlberg. i'm pretty sure i read so much that the school almost ran out of books to give me. and then, perhaps fortunately for them, i found enid blyton
12. did you enjoy any compulsory high secondary school readings?
really liked shakespeare because everyone does i think. macbeth and twelfth night were fun ones to start with... saw both performed which made it better. especially macbeth as an outdoor production at a castle on an overcast summer evening... anyway i enjoyed refugee boy (benjamin zephaniah) and coram boy (jamila gavin). wasn't quite so fond of the gcse texts although i liked kindertransport (diane samuels) better once i saw it performed (@spacetime-storytime was in it so i had to like it). but i never really got into 'proper literature' until i studied it in french...

Just some quotes that stood out in Marivaux’s play, for which Lestat was cast in the role of Harelquin, that seems to echo some of his dialogue with Louis and his conception of love. Interestingly, an older woman is courted early on the play.

What precisely is at stake in this drama of maternal sacrifice? In a provocative article, Suzanne Pucci argues that in eighteenth-century France the incest taboo as defined by Freud was not yet historically operative. Whereas Freud viewed the incest taboo as a natural cornerstone of all human societies, Pucci historicizes the concept. She argues that in the mid-eighteenth century the deployment of intrafamilial passion was a narrative strategy that invested the nuclear family with the same emotional intensity found in Marivaux's romantic plays. In other words, erotic discourse was grafted onto stories about parents and children in order to give new life and vitality to a specific social entity—the emerging middle-class family. Pucci's observations are borne out in de Genlis's work. Following a long line of French moralizing novelists, such as Madame de Lafayette, Fenelon, and Madame de Graffigny, de Genlis is highly suspicious of romantic passion, even between husbands and wives. In her universe, heterosexual love is always considered to be dangerous: it leads either to a life filled with remorse and regret or to a life of utter debauchery and public scandal. But as Pucci suggests in the case of Diderot, de Genlis nonetheless translates the drama of passionate love into a story about familial relationships. The passionate bond between mother and daughter works both to produce and safeguard the daughter's virtue, which eventually leads to "true" happiness.

Je vais faire du thé et après ma skincare je fais du repassage et je prépare mes affaires... Et puis je vais faire un brin de nettoyage surtout mes pinceaux avant de devenir zinzin. J'ai passé l'après midi à dormir. Je suis sortie fumer, marcher un peu et checker mes horaires de car (vous savez, le car qui passe une fois sur deux dans ce petit coin paumé en Bretagne pour aller à Rennes vu que je vois ma psychiatre tôt le matin). J'ai remarqué un truc : j'ai été toujours été bizarre mais maintenant j'assume. C'est cool. Spotify me manque à mort. Spotify me manque beaucoup plus que ma génitrice... En vrai c'est pas dur elle ne me manque plus du tout. Allez je me bouge les fesses. Je fais quoi comme thé ? Thé ou infusion ? En vrai j'ai envie d'un matcha glacé.
Bon on part sur un matcha guys. Vous avez passé des bonnes fêtes ? Pour ma part j'ai fumé un joint avec mon petit frère (faut croire qu'il voulait m'offrir un joint à Noël). Je lui ai offert pour ma part.
En vrai on s'en fout là de ce qui est normal entre nous.
On m'appelle Wednesday ou Tumblr girl. Et je suis toujours sur tumblr en 2023.
Comme je disais, j'ai toujours été bizarre maintenant j'assume.
Trop hâte de faire des maths dans le train mais pas hâte de lire Marivaux et Diderot. Mais hâte de faire des maths.
Bon j'y vais. J'ai un match à faire et des outfits de fausse riche à préparer. Je vois mon mec demain et quand je rentre je fais le nouvel an avec ma sœur (de cœur mais c'est ma famille). Faudra récupérer son petit cœur comme je m'y attendais. Foutue histoires de cœur, foutue famille de merde.
Fuck les familles qui passent leur temps à faire de la merde à leur gosse. Nique.
