Masques et mascarades dans Romola par George Eliot : la traversée des apparences by Stéphanie Richet

“…It works on the mode of prestidigitation in that it relies on the displacement of attention, drawing the viewer’s gaze on a spectacular, yet spurious gesture, while the real action lies somewhere else. It proceeds of a trick or an alternate game of presence and absence.Identifying the mask so as to make it fall, revealing the invisible mask so as to turn it into a recognizable object, contribute to reestablishing the dramatic illusion and the awareness of the interplay between reality and fiction. …”

Shelley Jacksons’s Gender Politics in Patchwork Girl (1995): a Cyborg Approach by Anne-Laure Fortin-Tournès
