Filing, extra-illustrating, or scrapbooking
An examination of the material pasted into early books collected by Francis Douce reveals that the collector had a high degree of familiarity with his collection and was able to return to places within it to add and revise material. Although scholars like Lucy Peltz have attempted to distinguish bibliographical practices such as filing for retrieval and extra-illustration, many of the different sorts of intervention displayed in Douce’s collectio…
How Francis Douce (1757–1834) Annotated the Early French Printed Volumes in His Collection
As an antiquarian at the beginning of the age of professional scholarship, Francis Douce (1737–1834) has enjoyed a mixed reputation, exemplified by Meg Twycross’s account of his influence on beliefs regarding the origins of the Towneley Plays. Widely-read and embedded in a network of like-minded enthusiasts, Douce does not appear to have recorded his insights for publication, but he nevertheless participated in what might be considered scholarly …
Lived experience in people with inflammatory bowel disease and comorbid anxiety and depression in the United Kingdom and Australia
This study explored the lived experience of people with inflammatory bowel disease and anxiety/depression. It utilised a deductive biopsychosocial framework. Overall, 24 patients and 20 healthcare professionals from two countries participated. In the United Kingdom, the main themes included (1) bidirectional relationship between inflammatory bowel disease and mental health, (2) the need for healthcare integration and (3) lack of awareness about t…
The message on the street corner
Manneken Pis, a Renaissance fountain in Brussels depicting a urinating boy, is a “floating signifier”, attracting multiple symbolic meanings from its earliest appearance. There is a surprising degree of overlap between meanings attached to the statue by hermetic alchemists and those used in health promotion campaigns. Approaches to alchemy could be scientific or spiritual but shared symbolic modes of expression. Both alchemists and public health …
Strangers in the Frame
This article examines the way in which tales of the Burgundian Cent Nouvelles nouvelles are interpreted differently by different reading publics. Taking a neglected tale in the corpus, nouvelle 66, as a starting point, the article argues that this nouvelle exemplifies tendencies observable throughout the collection, particularly in regard to surprising physical characteristics of outgroup members such as women and clerics. Viewed in the context o…
Historical Emplotment in the Crisis of Identity under Nazi Occupation
Even within the small section of Belgian society made up by francophone intellectuals sympathetic to the Nazi occupation of the country, writers had very varied views of Belgium's place in the emerging world order. This article examines the work of four writers, Raymond De Becker, Pierre Nothomb, Louis Carette and Michel de Ghelderode, alongside some polemical writing by Leon Degrelle, the leader of Rex, and examines how their different ideologic…
No Way to Treat your Mother
The surprising ending of Antoine de La Sale's fictionalized portrait of Jean de Saintré raises a number of questions concerning both the conduct of the two protagonists and the generic status of the work itself. Although it has been noted that the central relationship is defined in terms of mother and son, previous studies have not recognized the full implications of this reading and the extent to which it can elucidate the questions posed by the…
Le rôle de quelques personnages mineurs dans les Mémoires d'Olivier de la Marche
It would be wrong to assume that Olivier de La Marche’s Mémoires do not include minor characters. They can be observed in several passages such as the account of the 1443 Luxembourg war or that of the 1453 Poucques and Schendelbeke battles. The point of such characters is to give particular definition to wider events; they also provide some insights into the thoughts and fate of princes and dukes, and they indicate de La Marche’s own presence in …
