The Shop in Dickens’s Fiction by Maria Teresa CHIALANT

“…Considering that shops are either buildings and rooms where goods and services are sold, or spaces stocked with merchandise for sale, the present article looks at the latter of these functions in Dickens’s fiction; its aim is twofold: to draw attention to their recurrence as containers of objects—which gives him the opportunity to satisfy his obsession with the naming of things and to adopt the stylistic device of the list—and to explore the homology between the shop and the page as an example of Dickens’s rhetoric of “excess.”…”

De la controverse à la conversion : Venise et la défense de la rhétorique dans The Ephemerides of Phialo de Stephen Gosson by Anne Geoffroy-Piscou

“…The fact that Gosson chose to locate his prose fiction in Venice is highly significant and this study argues that the city’s association with vices provides an appropriate, though paradoxical, setting for Gosson’s defence of rhetoric at the expense of fiction. Furthermore, Gosson’s representation of Venice as a “colledge of curtezans” should be viewed against his own attempt to resume his studies at Corpus Christi. …”

L’intellectuel face à la célébration du (bi)centenaire de la Nation argentine by Romain Magras

“…This objective relies on a strategy to construct the figure of the author which is based on a very particular kind of rhetoric. Taking as our point of reference the role played by Leopoldo Lugones in Argentina’s Centenary Celebrations, we shall focus on the emergence of Abel Posse’s own figure on the Argentine scene in the early years of the twenty-first century, and on the link between Leopoldo Lugones’s nationalism and Abel Posse’s claim to embody it in the context of the Bicentenary.…”

“A good deal about California does not, on its own preferred terms, add up”: Joan Didion between Dawning Apocalypse and Retrogressive Utopia by Eva-Sabine Zehelein
