‘Le “je/jeu” intertextuel’: textual interplay and intertextual identity in Roxanne Bouchard’s <i>Whisky et paraboles</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article will offer an intertextual reading of Roxanne Bouchard’s Whisky et paraboles by applying Julia Kristeva’s theory of intertextuality, combined with the use of semiotic analysis. Bouchard’s notion of an ‘identité intertextuelle’ will be introduced and discussed, followed by an analysis of the intertextual use of some of the main tropes in the text belonging to the genre of the roman de la terre and the Québécois nationalist novel. This interpretation allows for a reading of Roxanne Bouchard’s novel that situates her text within but also outside the nationalist discourse and the paradigm of continuity which can be seen to characterise the Franco-Canadian and Québécois past and which forms part of the ‘idéologie de la survivance’, as advanced by Gérard Bouchard (2000). The article will argue that in Bouchard’s novel intertextual identity and textual interplay operate in a dynamic space located between the paradigms of continuity and rupture. It will conclude that Roxanne Bouchard ultimately seeks to recover both the individual and collective past and cultural memory of Quebec in order to forge a new Québécois identity that is fully able to embrace and assume both its past and present.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
