Item Tradition and the Individual Talent in T.S. Eliot’s and Wallace Stevens’ Poetry(2017) Benmezal, Farid; Amrane, Nadjia (Directeur de thèse)This thesis is a comparative study of two American poets, T.S. Eliot and Wallace Stevens, whose poetry exemplifies the two major opposing trends in American Modernism. My aim is to examine the different ways in which the two poets respond to the solipsism of Romantic poetry. Eliot turns to the historical past of Europe to find a cultural transcendental ego to suppress the individual ego of Romanticism. Against the Romantic solipsism and Eliot’s appeals to tradition, distant and abstract from the contemporary conditions of modern America, Stevens seeks a poetics that focuses on immediate conditions of American experience to forge a literary tradition more fully responsive to the cultural and material impulses of the new worldItem AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM AS HISTORY, MYTH, and IDEOLOGY(University of algiers2 Abu El Kacem Saad Allah جامعة الجزائر 2 أبو القاسم سعد الله, 2019) LAHLOUH, Amel; Amrane, Nadjia (Directeur de thèse)While some scholars are questioning the concept of American exceptionalism, this belief nonetheless holds a powerful position in the nature of American political tradition.The theme of American exceptionalism has been used in political speeches from the inception of the United States as an independent nation.

This dissertation greatly furthers our understanding of this important subject. It is valuable for anyone interested in the study of American exceptionalism as history, myth, and ideology and the challenges of using civil religion in American politics.
