Les mécanismes législatifs de l’autoritarisme algérien face au hirak : entre répression de la mobilisation et prévention de toute organisation du mouvement by Massensen Cherbi

“…This essay argues that the illustrations provided for the serial publication of the Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle—mainly by Sidney Paget—constitute a significant supplement that both illustrates common ideological prejudices of the nineteenth century and undermines any complete containment of evil and crime by the investigator. This ambivalence between social conformism and a disquieting urge in Paget’s drawings appears for instance in the similitude between images of Holmes and images of Moriarty, his arch enemy, or through the stylized settings which suggest a lasting threat in the outside, non-domestic world. …”
