Simulacre et modernité : l’illusion d’optique dans On the Western Circuit de Thomas Hardy by Catherine Lanone

“…Although Hardy was forced to bowdlerize his text, removing allusions to sexual intercourse and subsequent pregnancy, the real shock lies less in the hackneyed sentimentality of the illegitimate baby theme than in the depiction of modernity and modern exchanges — or systems of communication through trains, letters, or judicial rounds — as vicious circles breeding spurious desires and fantasies.

“…The period from the events of May 1968 to the election of François Mitterrand shows that anti-communism in France is experiencing an undeniable revival in the political circles of the parliamentary right. Animated by old fantasies about the "fear of the red" in the most conservative circles in the 1960s, it found in part of the Gaullist government of the late 1960s and around the events of 1968, a fierce revival, an argument that carried weight in the political struggle that was confirmed by the legislative elections of June 1968. …”
