‎Summary This study interrogates press caricatures and cartoons, staged revue and opera parodies to reveal the role they play within the Parisian theatrical, social and cultural sphere. From the beginnings of Wagner reception in Paris, through the heyday of opra-bouffe in the hands of that comic genius Herv, to the international operatic repertoire played on Parisian stages in the 1890s especially works by Verdi and Wagner performed during an increasingly tense nationalist climate alongside those by Massenet, Reyer and Saint-Sans this book examines the workings of parody which draws on opera for its subject material, its appeal, and for whom. Parodys repetition of dramatic and musical conventions is compounded by the abundance of revue shows on Parisian stages, by prolific authors such as Clairville, which deftly used well-known opera and operetta repertoire alongside the scie that popular tune given new words countless times over to create new yet familiar theatrical experiences. Indeed, by the 1890s, the words and musics of Faust, Carmen and Guillaume Tell in particular, held resonant value to signify the operatic. Aside from political caricature in which the figure of Wagner became embroiled, the ways in which parody brings together the high and the low to mock cultural norms, to neutralise alterity or innovation and refocus commentary onto internal, local, conventional and legitimised cultural products and debates becomes apparent. Opera and Parody in Paris, 18601900 thus uncovers a huge amount of primary and hitherto unpublished sources in an analysis of highly appealing intermedial materials that dominated Parisian print and stage culture in the late-nineteenth century.

‎Minorities in Contact in the Medieval Mediterranean‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 388 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 b/w, 7 maps b/w, Languages: English, Latin, French. ISBN 9782503587936.‎

‎Summary What is a minority? How did members of minority groups in the medieval Mediterranean world interact with contemporaries belonging to other groups? In what ways did those contacts affect their social positions and identities? The essays collected in this volume approach these questions from a variety of angles, examining polemic, social norms, economic exchange, linguistic transformations, and power dynamics. These essays recast the concept of minority - as a mutable condition rather than a fixed group designation - and explore previously-neglected collective and individual interactions between and among minorities around the medieval Mediterranean basin. Minorities are often defined as such because they were in some way excluded from access to resources or denied participation as a consequence of a group affiliation or facet of their identity. Yet, at times their distinctiveness also lay less in their exclusion than in particular ways of relating to spheres of power, whether political or moral, and in certain dissenting conceptions of the world. Through these contributions we shed light on both the continuities that such interactions displayed across intervals of space and time, and the changes that they underwent in particular locales and historical moments.

‎Lateran IV. Theology and Care of Souls‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 219 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:3 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503596808.‎

‎Summary The Fourth Lateran Council of 1215 was a foundational event in the history of Western Christendom. Lead by the reformist Pope Innocent III, the Council ushered in a new era of papal policy in governance, the implications of which would be felt throughout the continent. To some, Lateran IV represents the flourishing of the medieval papacy, as the institution sought to improve pastoral care across Europe, as well as to define theological orthodoxy. For others, Lateran IV constitutes the founding moment of the so-called 'persecuting society', the moment at which the Papacy articulated its identity via the category of heresy. Lateran IV: Theology and Care of Souls assesses the pastoral and theological legacies of the Council. The volume brings together scholars of high theology, as well as those whose work engages with the practices of clerical governance in the thirteenth century. Lateran IV: Theology and Care of Souls maps the key intellectual, theological, and pastoral concerns of Lateran IV, especially revealing the influence of the medieval theologians connected to the universities on the decrees of the Council.

‎Belgian Photonovel, 1954-1985.‎

‎Leuven, UPL, 2023 Softcover, 250 pag. Illustrated. FINE. ISBN 9789462703704.‎

‎The Belgian photonovel is the missing link in the amazing history of the photonovel, a comics-inspired form of visual narrative that combines elements from very different genres and media, ranging from literary melodrama, cinema, and of course comics. This monograph discloses the specific Belgian contribution to the genre, in close connection with the singularities of the Belgian women?s and general magazines where these photonovels appeared. If the photonovel is generally considered a typically French or Italian genre, this study demonstrates the importance of a different tradition, which appropriated the foreign models in a very original way. Belgian photonovels are distinct, not only because they tell other kinds of stories, but also because they interact with other types of magazines in ways that are very different from the mainstream forms of the genre in Italy and France. Finally, this lavishly illustrated study is also the first in scrutinizing the technical aspects of magazine printing techniques in the development of the photonovel.‎

‎La parution de L'ethique protestante et l'esprit du capitalisme (1904-1905) de Max Weber marque un moment essentiel dans la recrudescence du debat sur la Reforme et la Contre-Reforme au debut du xxe siecle. En Italie, en Allemagne, en France - comme ailleurs en Europe -, l'identite confessionnelle devient l'un des caracteres constitutifs de l'ideologie nationale et/ou nationaliste, ainsi qu'un element fort de la reflexion sur le concept de modernite. De meme, des phenomenes de resistance a la formation et a l'etablissement des totalitarismes emergent au sein de certains groupes d'intellectuels qui rejettent l'appropriation du discours religieux par les futurs ideologues du regime. On assiste alors a un foisonnement d'etudes concernant l'histoire des eglises et des confessions, s'interrogeant sur le developpement social et etatique des nations. Les echos des ces debats auront des retombees majeures dans l'affrontement ideologique entre Europe du Nord et Europe du Sud, civilisation germanique et civilisation mediterraneenne a l'aube du dernier grand conflit mondial. Cet ouvrage ne pretend pas apporter un regard exhaustif sur toutes les consequences que les discussion autour de la Reforme et la Contre-Reforme ont produites dans les annees 1900-1940, mais fait etat des premieres reflexions menees par des specialistes de differentes disciplines sur un sujet encore peu explore et pourtant fondamental pour l'interpretation de l'une des periodes les plus cruciales du siecle dernier.
