These rules should be applied to improve the appropriacy of syntactic and semantic aspects of TL texts. …”

Challenging “La Vie Bohème”: Community, Subculture, and Queer Temporality in Rent by Eleonora Sammartino

“…Rent (Chris Columbus, 2005), adapted from the 1996 cult stage musical by Jonathan Larson, is a paradigmatic example of how this representation of gender is interdependent with the remapping of the chronotopes of the genre to reflect this fluidity. The focus of the film on a group of HIV-positive queer friends in New York in 1989-1990, affected by the loss of loved ones because of the AIDS epidemic and by the on-going gentrification of the Lower East Side, is key to the queering of classical chronotopes. …”

“…Although biopics are still widely held in critical disdain, a number of new stimulating perspectives on the genre have recently emerged.

D’une manière l’autre de faire des mondes : science-fiction et savoirs de la fiction by Denis Mellier

“…Ainsi, la science-fiction tend à proposer une représentation de la manière dont elle produit le monde possible que le roman met en œuvre : au moyen de la thématisation de la dualité des mondes, elle met en abyme l’argument même qui permet de l’identifier comme genre ou comme corpus. Dès lors, la poétique du double permet de penser à la fois une communauté de questionnement mais aussi des différences entre ces manières de faire des mondes. …”

“…Comparison with Stephen’s essays reveals the magnitude of Woolf’s re-appropriation and revision of the genre: while Stephen’s persona, “a professed misoscopist” or hater of sights (224), refuses to be absorbed or alienated by visual perceptions, using them merely as a “promoter of thought” (234), Woolf’s persona gives precedence to sensation over the intellect, turning into “a central oyster of perceptiveness,” “an enormous eye” (481), as well as an army of conflicting selves, who dissolve the frontiers of personality.…”
