Plus que des cadavres, moins que des fantômes by Gregory Delaplace

“…En effet, si saisir la « culture » consiste à faire apparaître plus que des corps immobiles sur l’image, ce qui nécessite la mise en place de dispositifs complexes permettant de capturer leur présence devant l’objectif, les premiers ethnographes sont soucieux de ne pas trop en faire non plus, car la « culture » est censée se manifester d’une façon plus subtile que les fantômes révélés par la photographie spirite. …”

Figures de l’aventurière dans The Eustace Diamonds, d’Anthony Trollope (1873) : le refoulement d’un retour by Jacqueline Fromonot

“…And yet, contrary to Thackeray, Trollope abstains from building a fascinating character for the reader, as evidenced by the scarcer use of images and the narrator’s bluntly calling the adventuress a “liar”, which amounts to depriving her of any potential aura.This strategy of constant disqualification allows for the emergence of a clear-cut ethical position, which seems absent from Vanity Fair. …”
