"Nightown", "Necropolis", "Jerusalem" : les figures de la ville dans Ulysses de James Joyce by Philippe Birgy

“…Leaving aside the questions of the town-like or maze-like structure of the text itself and the hieroglyphic tracery of the flâneur's path—for these aspects have already been amply documented by Joycean scholars—it concentrates on the communal dimension that underlies Joyce's writing and on the stylistic inscription of a democracy to come that reaches beyond nationalism and citizenship (the latter being comically presented as Bloom's celestial Jerusalem). …”

Fabians Flanieren und der Müßiggang in der Krise by Benedikt Hengstl

“…Die Geschichte eines Moralisten, 1931], is examined in this article as a pessimistic idler, a flâneur experiencing a crisis. Fabian’s position in the society of the late Weimar Republic is understood as a reaction to the completely rationalized, economized character of the depicted world—especially Berlin—and to the experiences of an entire generation. …”

National Allegory in Teju Cole’s Open City by Derek F. DiMatteo

“…This stance is facilitated by its portrayal of the protagonist Julius as suffering not a dissociative fugue but a dissociative amnesia, which I arrive at by using the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) V and a rereading of Ian Hacking to revise prior interpretations of Julius as flâneur-fugueur. Drawing on the work of Fredric Jameson, I read Julius’s amnesia-like repression of his past crimes as allegorical of his adopted nation, the USA, which tends to forget its responsibility for its own historical injustices. …”

A Geocritical Reading of Daniel Defoe’s Moll Flanders by Dilek İnan

“…This study analyzes the rich spatial and platial references in Daniel Defoe’s picaresque novel Moll Flanders (1722) by using the prospect provided by the figure of the flâneur and geocritical criticism. The novel portrays a world of mobility and travel amongst places and Moll’s spatial experiences determine her survival and spiritual refinement. …”

A FLÂNERIE MANGUEBEAT NA MANGUETOWN: construindo imagens de si e da cidade by Cláudio Morais de Souza

“…Esse olhar pode ser visto, por um lado, como crítico e perceptivo, e por outro, como revelador da dinâmica juvenil, nas suas estratégias de enfrentamentos e experimentações das transformações que o processo de globalização recente impõe às sociedades periféricas. E como um flâneur que o Manguebeat perambula pela cidade produzindo imagens ao mesmo tempo em que redesenha seus contornos, explicitando seus problemas. …”

Una flâneuse disidente en la farmacopornomegalópolis. Promiscuidad, amor y ciudad en Plástico cruel de Jóse Sbarra by Atilio Raul Rubino

“…Bombón deviene así una resignificación del flâneur moderno en el contexto de la instauración de una identidad gay que, según Perlongher, al intentar ampliar el ámbito de la normalidad arrojaba a los bordes de lo humano a nuevos excluidos como la travesti, la loca o el chongo. …”

Freins et leviers pour l’installation de jardins en bord de voies by Grégoire Chelkoff, Magali Paris

“…At the same time of this analyse of the perception and the uses, a environmental analysis is conducted in order to evaluate the contribution of gardens to functionnal biodiversité (ecological continuities), specific biodiversity (number of species) and to estimate their pollutions (air, soil and plants pollutions) and it impact on gardeners and flâneurs. Indeed, if these environments are « affordances » for users that invent and enchant here their everydaylife, who decide and how of the future of those gardened landscapes ? …”
