Rilune, n° 15, "Sons de papier: nouvelles perspectives pour l'étude des rapports entre littérature et musique"

Over the years the relationship between literature and music has been questioned, exceeded and crossed in different directions. This phenomenon demonstrates a continuous exchange between the two fields, characterized by a reciprocity which generates meaning. This inter artes exchange is the starting point of the present issue of RILUNE – Review of European Literatures, which aims to investigate the relationship between literature and music in European literatures, from a comparative and interdisciplinary approach, aiming to contribute to the contemporary cultural debate on the topic. We are interested in the different possibilities of analysis which the comparison and the combination of literature and music offer. The contributions in this volume are organised in three parts : (I) Music in the text : the inner sound of literature ; (II) Music written and described : musical thematisation in literature ; (III) New frontiers of transmediality and literary acoustics.
