Réécriture parodique dans un road novel de Peter Handke by Jenny Brasebin

“…Interestingly, Handke’s novel, published in 1997, is closely related to a story written eight centuries prior : Yvain ou le chevalier au lion by Chrétien de Troyes. Not only are there numerous direct or indirect allusions to the medieval book, the plot itself revolves almost entirely around the canons of the chivalry novel, which Handke reproduces while simultaneously reorienting them from their original meaning. …”

Sydney Carton’s Other Doubles by Joel J. Brattin

“…Utilizing close examination of the revisions in Dickens’s remarkable manuscript of the novel (now in the Forster Collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London), I consider several other figures that double Carton: Mr. Stryver, the ‘lion’ to Sydney’s ‘jackal’; Charles Dickens, Carton’s own creator; the innocent young seamstress who shares his fate at the guillotine in the final chapter; and finally—and perhaps most revealingly—Sydney Carton himself.…”

Cold Outbreaks at the Mesoscale in the Western Mediterranean Basin: From Raincells to Rainbands by Jordi Mazon, David Pino

“…Based on the observations and simulations, this paper suggests that a new perspective could effectively be adopted regarding the WMB region delineated by the Balearic Islands, the northeastern Iberian Peninsula, and the Gulf of Lion, where inland cold outbreaks develop into density currents that move offshore and can produce precipitation ranging from raincells to rainbands at the whole mesoscale.…”
