Nemocné tělo v denících Tobiáše Antonína Seemana by Radmila Pavlíčková

“… Diary records made by Tobias Anton Seeman, Hofmeister of Count Franz Anton Sporck and his son-in-law, Franz Karl Swéerts-Sporck, preserved from 1726–1747, with little intervals, contain, inter alia, records of the lords’ and the writer’s ailments and their treatment. The analyses of Seeman’s references to sick bodies have led to the hypothesis that recording such information was caused by the need to compile a practical manual detailing the symptoms of diseases and their progress for the author and his master to use for a more exact recapitulation of their health condition in consultations with physicians. …”

Zola, Lourdes and the New Religious Crowd in Ideological Debates in Portugal (1894-1932) by Eduardo Cintra Torres

“…The impact of Émile Zola’s novel on Lourdes was felt in Portugal even before its publication in France in 1894. The naturalist writer’s documentary fiction plucked a central chord in the political and religious debate of the time, particularly the dichotomy between science and religion, the renewal of faith and the legitimacy of the crowd in public spaces. …”

Flaubert lecteur : une histoire des écritures by Philippe Dufour

“…We find on the one hand the admired figures of the past, whether they be the great naïve geniuses who inspire Flaubert’s dogma of impersonality, or the masters of the classical age, who remind the inspired writer to be patient.

Le rendez-vous manqué de Bouvard et Pécuchet avec la peinture by Stéphanie Dord-Crouslé

“…Some elements in the genetic file of Bouvard et Pécuchet suggest that he did, but closer examination confines this intention to the earliest stage of the novel's scriptural conception. The writer then suppressed both the practical application and the critical examination of painting by his two characters, leaving literature in first place, even when it came to thinking about the two aesthetic domains in interaction, as shown by his use of the notes taken from the reading of Réflexions critiques sur la poésie et sur la peinture by the Abbé Dubos (1733).…”
