The "intimate enemies": Edward Dowden, W. B. Yeats and the formation of character
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: Nordic Journal of English Studies. Also available from the publisher at: http://ojs.ub.gu.se/ojs/index.php/njes/article/view/2917 Open Access Stung by Edward Dowden's reluctance to endorse the Irish Literary Revival, W. B. Yeats distanced himself publicly from the TCD Professor. This act of distancing has largely been accepted by subsequent scholarship as a reflection of Dowden's lack of influence on Yeats. Despite obvious disagreements on some key points, this essay will argue that Yeats is close to Dowden on a number of issues, by tracing their intimate dialogue about the writings of George Eliot, Shakespeare and Goethe. The concept of forma…
"Florentine Nights", or domesticating "Romola": The forgotten Polish translation of George Eliot's novel
2019
The paper discusses an anonymous Polish translation of George Eliot’s 1863 novel Romola, published in the late nineteen-twenties by the Edward Wende publishing house. The Polish version, which appeared with the title Noce florenckie (Florentine Nights) and a photo of Lilian Gish on the cover, may be seen as an early case of a movie tie-in. The discussion focuses on the domesticating strategies used by the Polish translator, who paid attention only to the elements that move the personal story of Romola, Tito and Tessa forward, and removed most of the elements that deal with the history and culture of Renaissance Florence. As a result, the translation becomes a highly simplified paraphrase th…

The notion of physical and moral well-being : relationship and interaction in George Eliot's literary works
2020
This dissertation analyzes the concept of well-being in the writings of George Eliot in order to account for the question of the individual in his/her relationships with the other and others such as animals and the environment so as to obtain physical, moral as well as personal and social well-being along the resulting ethics and aesthetics. For the novelist, well-being finds its source in the individuals’ suffering in British nineteenth-century society. Conceiving well-being from Eliot’s point of view therefore means giving priority to individual relationships and interactions. This relational vision of well-being amounts to considering the social regularities related to community life, th…
Joan Estelrich i el nou humanisme a l’Europa d’entreguerres
2021
Aquest article presenta alguns aspectes de l’activitat de Joan Estelrich a partir de dues iniciatives pertanyents, segons ell mateix, a un humanisme o nou humanisme en voga a l’Europa d’entreguerres. Com que el terme humanisme és polisèmic, i l’expressió nou humanisme és encara més ambigua, en primer lloc repassem breument el context històric per mirar d’evitar equívocs. Presentem seguidament el projecte de revista Humanitats (1929), concebuda com a òrgan de la Fundació Bernat Metge i com a plataforma de difusió de l’activitat classicista a Catalunya i a l’exterior, amb especial atenció a la contribució de Mario Meunier sobre l’esperit europeu i les humanitats. A partir de les intervencion…
