Un silence sans ambiance. Hammershøi, les impressionnistes et le tournant atmosphérique contemporain by Hugues Choplin

“…From a confrontation between French impressionist painting and the painting of the Danish Vilhelm Hammershøi (1864-1916), we thus distinguish three concepts, which define three different aesthetic paths: — the ambience, appropriate to the Impressionists and the philosophies of the situation or, as we will say, of the surroundings; — the atmosphere, implied by the painting as it is thought by a certain French philosophy of the 20th century (Deleuze, Merleau-Ponty, Levinas); — finally, the silence, specific to Hammershøi’s painting. …”

Oscar Wilde and la critique impressionniste by Richard Hibbitt

“…It shows how Wilde’s views of criticism in the essays collected in Intentions are prefigured by Anatole France and Jules Lemaître, and how the dialogic discussion of art in ‘The Critic as Artist’ itself prefigures a real-life debate between France and the conservative critic Ferdinand Brunetière, who rejected the ‘subjective’ approach as ‘impressionist criticism’. The aim is to show how Wilde’s view of criticism combined aestheticism with a profound belief in the value of paradox and inconsistency as epistemological tools.…”

The Roaring Streets: Dickensian London in the Pages of Virginia Woolf by Francesca Orestano

“…Dickens’s Little Dorrit and its closing sentence opens up my critical track by suggesting that Woolf’s reconstruction of the past must give to Victorian sounds a role that is neither ancillary nor merely impressionistic. This article focuses on Woolf’s portrayal of Victorian urban life in her fiction, especially in The Years (1937), where London sounds are everywhere present and deployed to create the polyphony—an exciting cacophony in modernist terms—of the great city. …”
