In fact, in order to support his description, Flaubert uses mainly four historical accounts, those written by the “leftist” historians Hippolyte Castille, Daniel Stern, Marc Caussidière and Louis Blanc. …”

Oscillation Between Resist and to Not? Users’ Folk Theories and Resistance to Algorithmic Curation on Douyin by Hui Lin

“…Thus, this article argues that although people espouse folk theories as resources to resist algorithmic curation in different sociocultural contexts, most of their resistance behaviors remain constrained within the dominant use of technological affordances, which largely functions as a process of continuous negotiation rather than a subversive force capable of disrupting the ideological power relations embedded in algorithm-driven platforms.…”

Alice’s Non-Anthropocentric Ethics: Lewis Carroll as a Defender of Animal Rights by Anna Kérchy

“…The vanishing and reappearing Cheshire Cat represents language that is ideologically manipulative and poetically subversive and distinguishes the speaking human subject from animals (Lecercle 1994); the Caucus Race led by the Dodo Bird is an absurd rehearsal of the Darwinian evolutionary theory’s competitive struggle for survival (Lovell-Smith 2007), while the dormouse in the teapot evokes how the ownership of certain animals could indicate class belonging (Ritvo 1987). …”

Marie Corelli, Wormwood, and the Diversity of Decadence by Jessica DeCoux

“…Corelli’s condemnation of the absintheur as a failed Decadent is a call not to moral orthodoxy, but to another, less recognizable but equally subversive model of Decadence. Some of the doubts the novel raises about the Decadent project and the troubled place of the Decadent in the nineteenth-century popular imagination are echoed by other Decadent works of the time.Reading Corelli’s novel in this way not only allows for a dramatic rethinking of her work, it also opens up a reconsideration of the ways that Decadence was embraced by the fin-de-siècle literary public, and the ways that public did not merely consume Decadence but refined and disseminated it. …”

Landschaftsgedächtnis und Geschlechterdiskurse in ausgewählten Werken von Elsa Bernstein und Maria Waser by Monika Mańczyk-Krygiel
