Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Alabama, 1998.

This study examines the life and military works of Paul Gaschon de Molènes in the context of literary dandyism, especially as it is defined by Charles Baudelaire in his <italic>Le peintre de la vie moderne</italic>. As a dandy, Molènes, a French writer and soldier who lived during the mid-nineteenth century, views his life as a conscious self-construction and, through his actions, writes himself as a text mid presents himself to his audience as a work of art. As a literary dandy, he goes one step further by retextualizing this constructed “text” in the text of his writings. The dandy, through this self-textualization, pushes logic to its furthest limit and thereby challenges the logic of the language and structures of his world and exposes the logical fallacies on which these structures depend. As a military dandy, Molènes textualizes not only himself but also the soldiers whom he observes and the institution of war itself. In the process, he creates an unforgettable picture of men at war while decentering and challenging civilization's basic assumptions about war itself. Seen in the context of a writer-soldier-dandy, Molènes and his military <italic>récits</italic> by Barbey d'Aurevilly. Chapters Two and Three, “The Aspiring Dandy” and “The Realization of the Dandy,” study and interpret his life as a text. The final chapter deals with his military <italic>récits</italic>, showing them to be not only the dandy-writer's record of his own textualization but also a dandy's written memorial to his fellow soldiers and to war itself. The two chapters dealing with his life and the various appendices further serve as a needed repository of all of the biographical information, and the bibliography provides definitive lists of Molènes's works and of secondary biographical and critical sources on his life and work.
