Law of the Land: Shades of Nordic Noir in an Arctic Western
2020
Armoton maa (Law of the Land, Jussi Hiltunen, 2017) is a contemporary western set on a peripheral border region in western Lapland, Finland. Combining crime story and family drama, it is a complex case of genre hybridity. This chapter asks how Law of the Land adapts elements from Nordic noir and modifies the Lapland film, a mixture of films set in Lapland. The melancholy mood and the dark aesthetic links the film to Nordic noir, which has traveled to remote regions recently. However, Lapland can also be seen as a Finnish version of the Wild West. Law of the Land exemplifies both the mutation and vitality of Nordic noir as a style, demonstrating that it can be adapted by other genres, even b…

Demonstration of spotted fever group rickettsiae in the tache noire of a healthy person in Sicily.
1984
A human case of rickettsial infection occurred in Sicily following tick bite. The patient did not have fever, the typical nodular rash, or other symptoms of illness other than development of a tache noire containing spotted fever group rickettsiae, which were demonstrated by immunofluorescence. A high titer of antibodies of the IgG class suggests that the patient may have had previous exposure to Rickettsia conorii or a related spotted fever group rickettsia. An anamnestic response may be hypothesized to have conferred partial immunity, with resulting containment of rickettsiae at the site of inoculation.
CLINICAL AND LABORATORY FINDINGS OF BOUTONNEUSE FEVER IN SICILIAN CHILDREN
1998
The spectrum of signs and symptoms of 645 consecutive children diagnosed from 1984 to 1996 with boutonneuse fever (BF), a mild rickettsial disease caused by Rickettsia conorii endemic in the Mediterranean basin, are reported. The major clinical features were fever (97.2%), exanthema (96.1%) and “tache noire” (71.8%). The large series examined permitted the authors to observe some rare or disregarded clinical features of the disease: cases with papulovesicular exanthema, reported previously only in adults who had been infected by R. conorii in Africa; and cases in which the only symptom was an isolated lymphadenopathy. Conclusion R. conorii infection should be considered in patients with lym…
Influence des facteurs naturels sur la maturation du raisin, en 1979, à Pomerol et Saint-Emilion
1981
<p style="text-align: justify;">Les vignobles de Pomerol et Saint-Emilion sont implantés sur des sols dérivant de roches-mères variées; ils produisent des vins de haute qualité mais différents suivant leur origine géologique.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Dans les meilleurs crus, nous avons pu vérifier que les variations mésoclimatiques sont très faibles et ont peu d'influence sur les caractères des vins. Par contre, en 1979, une relation a été mise en évidence entre les conditions de l'alimentation en eau de la vigne (étroitement liées aux propriétés physiques des sols) et la constitution des raisins à maturité (<em>V. vinifera</em> var. Merlot noir).<…
Remote but Connected : Lapland as a Scene of Transnational Crime in Ivalo
2021
Set in a small town in the north of Finland, the crime TV series Ivalo (Arctic Circle, Finland, 2018) exemplifies the fascination of Nordic Noir with ‘remote’ locations as scenes of transnational crime. The plot seems to forebode the corona pandemic, portraying the spread of a life-threatening ‘Yemenite virus’ developed as a biological weapon from the Balkans to Lapland. In this article, I analyze how the virus narrative allows the series to bring new perspectives on Nordic Noir. The narrative emphasizes international connections while creating representations of places that can be characterized as both translocal (Greiner and Sakdapolrak 2013) and glocal (Robertson 2012). Because of its fa…
Une nouvelle peinture médiévale à Notre-Dame de Paris : le tombeau de Simon Matifas de Bucy
2008
International audience; Sur le mur méridional de la chapelle d'axe de Notre-Dame de Paris, dédiée à saint Nicaise, subsiste aujourd'hui une importante peinture murale du XIVe siècle parisien. Vestige du tombeau à enfeu de Simon Matifas de Bucy, évêque de Paris de 1290 à 1304, l'œuvre, lourdement restaurée par Viollet-le-Duc au XIXe siècle, constitue pourtant possiblement l'unique témoignage de l'activité de Jean Pucelle dans le domaine de la peinture monumentale. Des relevés et documents indirects permettent de reconstituer en partie l'histoire matérielle de ce monument et d'en évaluer la place dans l'histoire de l'art du premier tiers du XIVe siècle.
Wine metabolomic analysis : "chemical messages in a bottle"
2014
The main objective of this work was to develop non-targeted metabolomics analyses of bottled wines in order to decipher chemical informations from the time-related evolution of their composition. This original research was based on the hypothesis that, when analyzed, bottled wines would still hold chemical memories of envionmental parameters (vineyard management, oenological practices, climate, terroir…) at the moment of their elaboration, even after several years of ageing. A second hypothesis was that in order to anticipate the future evolution of the wine quality in terms of chemical composition, it is necessary to know what it was in the past. To that purpose, and for the first time in …
La ricerca pittorica di Pietro Finelli tra citazione e riscrittura
2013
Il volume raccoglie saggi di quattro studiosi, di cui due storici dell'arte e due storici del cinema, sul ciclo di pitture recenti realizzate da Pietro Finelli e ispirate al cinema noir statunitense degli anni '40 del Novecento. In particolare il saggio di Gabriella De Marco evidenzia come la ricerca dell'artista sia un esempio di ekphrasis proprio perchè si muove non solo tra ricerca figurativa e cinema ma attinge anche ai rapporti tra arte, filosofia e letteratura.

Tutkimme artikkelissamme ekologista ja affektiivista outouttamista suomalais-ruotsalaisessa spekulatiivista fiktiota ja Nordic noiria yhdistävässä televisiosarjassa White Wall (2020). Väitämme, että sarjan affektiivinen kokonaissävy muodostuu spekulatiivisen fiktion ja Nordic noirin lajityypillisten elementtien yhdistyessä, mikä rakentaa outouttavaa katsojakokemusta, jossa fiktiivisen maailman outous yhdistyy tosimaailman ekologisiin kysymyksiin. Tämä affektiivisen ja ekologisen outouttamisen yhdistelmä toimii lähtökohtana sarjan, etenkin sen keskeisen oudon ilmiön, valkoisen seinän, posthumanistiselle luennallemme. Hyödynnämme analyysissämme affektitutkimusta, eri genreteorioita sekä posth…
