The Wandering Jew as Monster: John Blackburn’s <i>Devil Daddy</i> by Lisa Lampert-Weissig

“…In the medieval and early modern sources of the legend, the Wandering Jew, who once sinned against Christ and is therefore doomed to be an immortal eyewitness to the Passion, serves as a model for the faithful. In his 1796 gothic novel, <i>The Monk</i>, Matthew Lewis creates a new strand of the Wandering Jew tradition, a gothic Wandering Jew, a being transformed from wonder to horror through association with centuries of antisemitic accusations against Jews as agents of conspiracy, ritual murder, nefarious magic, and disease. …”

De Jane Eyre à Shirley : une représentation des éléments transformée par les bouleversements sociaux ? by Élise Ouvrard

“…The representation of the four elements in Shirley is thus quite different from the one David Lodge analysed in Jane Eyre (« Fire and Eyre : Charlotte Brontë’s War of Earthly Elements »). The passionate and purifying fire which characterizes Jane Eyre becomes endowed with a social dimension : it reduces to ashes many factories, such as the one Sykes owns for instance (« his dressing-shop was set on fire and burnt to the ground ») ; fire is associated to revolt, hatred but also death since gunshots can be heard several times. …”

Lui, « pour toujours, a embrassé ma bouche, toute frémissante » : Paolo et Francesca dans la peinture préraphaélite et esthétique by Anne-Florence Gillard-Estrada

“…John Flaxman a conçu un modèle iconographique qui a circulé tout au long du siècle : les amants sont mis en scène dans une composition théâtrale, s'embrassant chastement, sous le regard de Gianciotto. Il n'y a pas la passion que Francesca exprime dans le Canto v. Cette configuration a été imitée par de nombreux peintres, notamment français, comme M.…”

Auto-biblio-graphies : voir et lire le lecteur. Typologie exploratoire de bibliothèques conçues comme des « autoportraits » de grands lecteurs by Bérénice Waty

“…La bibliothèque, ou plutôt les hiérarchies et variations des lieux de rangements du livre sont ainsi observées et questionnées dans l’idée qu’elles forment un portrait de lecteur, reflétant leurs goûts littéraires, certes, mais aussi et surtout leur identité polymorphe de celui qui lit et qui aborde sa vie dans et pour cette passion exclusive. Des « murs » de livres aux pierres tombales, en passant par des « Panthéons » littéraires cachés au plus près de soi, ou encore la question des legs d’ouvrages, on constatera que ce public n’a de cesse de multiplier les relations physiques avec l’objet livre et de magnifier ce dernier à chaque moment de leur relation avec lui : après l’achat, avant et après la lecture.L’approche historique sera convoquée pour démontrer en quoi ces discours et actes des grands lecteurs véhiculent un idéal type du lecteur, lettré même, qui se doit d’être uniquement tendu vers le lire. …”
