The Landbound Chicken and the Deliberate Chameleon yet have their Uses: Yorùbá Art History, Language, and Interpretation. by Kathy Curnow

“…However, the question posed above remains intriguing, and is more complex than it appears. Even when an artist and his patron live in the same community at the same time, their interpretations of a commissioned work may not be identical, so when one moves out to the analyses of art historians, Yorùbá or not, one cannot necessarily assume a third party will understand the work just as its maker and user did. …”

Quand la littérature formatait les vies by José-Luis Diaz

“…Cet article envisage ensuite quelques-unes des conséquences de ce formatage, qui, en raison du nouvel ordre médiatique, contribue à la définition de modes de vie stéréotypés (la « vie de poète », la « vie d’artiste », la « vie de bohème »). Mais ce formatage influe aussi sur les écrivains eux-mêmes, conduits à adopter des habitus en accord avec leurs choix littéraires : ce qui fait que les principaux scénarios auctoriaux ont engendré des prêt-à-vivre. …”
