L’Orient-souvenir. Le surgissement du passé autobiographique dans le périple méditerranéen de Flaubert by Sarga Moussa

“…Leaving for the Orient, the young Flaubert was marked by Chateaubriand’s Itinéraire de Paris à Jérusalem, which steered the genre of travel writing towards autobiography. Here, we examine in his travel notes and correspondence three examples of a personal past emerging – first, a recent past, that of the first version of La Tentation de saint Antoine, which Flaubert is thinking back to during his encounter with a Coptic priest; then, a more distant past, that of his own youth resurfacing in the Kuchuk-Hanem episode by the Nile; finally, an imagined past, associated with a former life, reappearing like a ghost in the Greek village of Topolia. …”

'Kingsman', Not 'My Fair Lady:' Dialect and Stereotype in the Films 'The Secret Service' and 'The Golden Circle' by Carla Soares

“…The way characters in film are portrayed, through dress code, behaviour and speech, is often revealing of social patterns and social critique, independently from the film genre or the target audience. This article focuses on the portrayal of lead and supporting actors in the two instalments of Kingsman, The Secret Service and The Golden Circle (2014 and 2017 respectively, both by Mathew Vaughn), departing, in the first case, from a Pygmalionesque transformative idea and, centered in Harry/Galahad’s (Colin Firth) motto “Manners Maketh Man” to partially portray social context in Britain and extending its “tongue-in-cheek” critique to the American Southern culture in The Golden Circle, in purposely biased portraits. …”
