The Impossible Portait. Georges Perec and His Condottiere
2016
Continuous and more or less veiled references, descriptions, inventions, images characterize the poetry of Georges Perec. But above all one image is significant not only to his poetics but to himself: that of Le Condottière, translated in english as Portrait of a Man. On 2012, thirty years after Perec’s death, the last piece of his literary image was discovered. Actually, it is the first image of this complex puzzle, the first time Gaspard Winckler, Perec’s recurrent alter-ego, appeared on the scene. Three main characters stay on the stage of Portrait of a Man: Gaspard Winckler, Antonello da Messina and the unknown warlord himself. Behind them stays, of course, Perec, the “character” into w…

‘The Natural and the Jeweler’. Note su Ira Gershwin
2010
Il saggio si occupa del modo in cui Ira Gershwin scriveva i testi per le canzoni del fratello George. Nella prima parte viene approfondito il fatto che, nell'attività dei songwriter americani, la musica precede il testo. Nella seconda parte vengono esaminate le caratteristiche più salienti delle personalità artistiche di George e di Ira Gershwin. Nella terza parte viene proposta l'analisi di due pezzi esemplari composti dai due fratelli: "They can't take that away from me" e "Love walked in".
La céramique de la Tène finale (fosse 1182 et niveaux précoces)
2020
INSERTION DE LA FOSSE 1182 DANS LE CONTEXTE DES NIVEAUX PRÉROMAINS DE LA ZONE CULTUELLE Dans la zone des sanctuaires, l’existence de niveaux préromains a été clairement mise en évidence par les fouilleurs (FAUDUET, POMMERET, 1985, p. 63 ; POMMERET, 1994). Malheureusement, les destructions consécutives à la construction du grand temple obscurcissent notablement la vision de ces niveaux. On ne dispose que d’informations ponctuelles et lacunaires sur les niveaux les plus précoces, difficiles de ...
Edizioni, traduzioni e censure: Cicognara, i fratelli Giachetti e l’editoria artistica di inizio Ottocento
2018
This article focuses on Leopoldo Cicognara's role as an advisor of the Italian publisher Giachetti (Prato). After a brief analysis of three key publications (Cicognara's history of sculpture; Séroux d'Agincourt's history of medieval and early-modern Art; Winckelmann's history of ancient art), the authors discuss the role of censorship and its consequences for nineteenth-century art books. The documentary appendix includes a complete transcription of all reports by the Florentine censor p. Mauro Bernardini.
El manuscrito del 'Cancionero de Baena' (PN1) : Descripción codicológica y evolución histórica
2018
The present article attempts to establish as accurately as possible the chronological trajectory of the unique codex of the Cancionero de Baena (PN1 in the Dutton nomenclature). It begins with a detailed examination of the codicological aspects of the manuscript, which serve to date its origin to around 1465. This origin, combined with the historical data, supports a conjecture that the manuscript probably belonged to Gonzalo de Beteta, an official of both Enrique IV and the Catholic Kings. It would have passed from him to his grandson, Jorge de Beteta y Cardenas, who gave it to the Real Biblioteca de El Escorial in 1576. The article then follows the vicissitudes of the manuscript from its …
"That's Real! That's What You Want!": Producing Fear in George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead (1978) vs Zack Snyder's remake (2004)
2011
International audience; This article examines traditional oppositions between terror and horror in Dawn of the Dead (1978) and its recent remake (2004), by focusing on one of the major changes made by the producers of the remake: the use of running zombies, which emphasizes the danger the creatures represent to the characters, and enables the film-makers to resort to the kind of cheap startle effects that abound in contemporary slasher and action movies. That the living dead of 1978 were slow-moving allowed for contemplation of their pathetic state and questioned the border between living and dead. The 1978 film underlined how incompatible the living dead were with such techniques that rely…
Contextualising Baxtin’s Linguistic Ideas
2012
Summary This article discusses the origins and formation of the notion of ‘metalinguistics’ in Mixail Mixajlovič Baxtin’s (1895–1975) writings. It is argued that the discussion of metalinguistics and the division of labour within the study of language in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s may have exerted a more profound influence on the formation of Baxtin’s linguistic views than was previously thought. The article investigates the nature and extent of this interaction and shows that there are interesting parallels between Baxtin’s conception of metalinguistics and the metalinguistics writings of George L. Trager (1906–1992). This suggests that, apart from any purely terminological i…
De l’effet transformatif de l’imaginaire :
2019
The polymorphic concept of the novel and the intertextuality of the literary genres characterize the work of Georges Perec, whose writing looks into different genres, codes and models and combines them in order to preserve the singularity of each of his works. Among these W ou le souvenir d’enfance, an unclassifiable novel that alternates fiction and childhood memories, has been the result of a very difficult writing process, that genetic documents can only partly clear up. We propose to reflect on the process of re-functionalization of the adventure novel W, which appeared before as a serialized text in the journal La Quinzaine littéraire and was then integrated into the great autobiograph…
