“…Her great popularity and the apparently moralistic elements of her work have excluded her from the ranks of the fin-de-siècle British Decadents, a group (such as it exists) traditionally defined by its rejection of mainstream middle-class values and its desire to appeal to a select readership of aesthetically-minded intellectuals. …”

Historiography of Neo-Roman Thought: Critical Review of Skinner’s Liberty before Liberalism by Reza Najafzadeh

“…Then, in a reductionary historicism, Skinner’s archeological hermeneutic is an English one, and his research program focused on the modern British history of liberty. His conservative archeology could not go beyond a mere historiography of thought and it is difficult to find in his project a critical position and also a philosophical examination in the field of politics. …”

Louise Jopling, esthète réticente, féministe convaincue by Laurent Bury

“…L’engagement dans le sens de l’esthétisme reste pourtant timide dans son œuvre, peut-être par crainte de ne pas trouver d’acheteurs pour des œuvres plus avant-gardistes, et il semble que ce soit plutôt dans le camp du féminisme que Louise Jopling ait déployé son énergie : transformée en objet d’art par le regard de ses portraitistes Whistler et Millais, elle prit soin d’affirmer son autonomie en tant que sujet, devenant en 1880 membre de la Society of Women Artists, ouvrant en 1887 sa propre école d’art pour les femmes, puis en étant en 1901 la première femme admise au sein de la Royal Society of British Artists. Le sujet de diverses œuvres aujourd’hui perdues laisse néanmoins entrevoir un possible lien entre féminisme et esthétisme, culminant avec sa Salomé de 1885.…”
