Les enfants mal élevés dans les dialogues de Juan Luis Vives et Pedro de Luján
Abstrak
Following into Erasmus's steps, Spanish authors Juan Luis Vives and Pedro de Luján have written dialogues with the aim of educating the youth of their time. The format of the dialogue genre itself, however, implies the presence of a contradictory voice, a counter-point to the dominant discourse which, far from undermining the latter, would tend to reinforce its efficiency. In spite of being artificial rhetorical devices, such opponents have been sketched up into true characters with remarkable, if not fully-fledged, traits. The present contribution shall therefore focus on these poorly-bred children in so much as they stand as reverse models enabling the readers to better understand what was expected of well-educated offspring in the Renaissance period. Above all, what will be highlighted here is the way the misbehaving children evolve throughout the dialogues up to the point of directing the readers toward their own improvement.
