Earnest
Victorian Earnestness‘The one thing, as Macaulay would have put it, which every schoolboy knows about the Victorians is that they were earnest’. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, that means they were ‘serious, not frivolous; showing sincere and intense feeling or conviction; lacking playfulness’. Earnestness is quintessentially Victorian. How could it not but be included in this glossary compiled by the editors of the Cahiers victoriens…
Writing the Life of Natalie Clifford Barney's Salon: ‘Le Cercle d'Enchantement Et D'inspiration’
This paper focuses on the expatriate American poet Natalie Clifford Barney and her life as salon hostess in Paris which spanned the sixty-year period from 1908 to 1968.

Ici le terme se réfère à l’intertextualité ruskinienne dans les éc…

Among those relationships were artists Paul Helleu and Jacques-Émile Blanche; society figures Dr Samuel Pozzi, Comte Robert de Montesquiou and Winnaretta Singer; and musicians Gabriel Fauré, Léon Delafosse and Reynaldo Hahn. The works of the painter and the novelist share other traits: penetrating and inci…
