En estrange païs: The nostalgia of Ideal in Marguerite Porete’s work In her Mirror of Simple Souls, Marguerite Porete († 1310) aims at paving the way for the annihilated soul to find its ideal self back in the mystical union with God. However, by doing so, she also draws on the feeling of nostalgia by heralding the discrepancy between the usual state of the soul, where it stands forlorn and bereft of the source of its longing, and its state of fulfillment where words are no longer relevant. Hence the Mirror as a speculative tractate builds on a rich literary imagery – images of mountains and valleys, of sea and rivers and sunshine, depicting a country of life vs one of estrangement, as well as a sense of lost time that cannot be recovered – to embark its readers on a spiritual journey while making them aware of the shortcomings of ordinary language.

Spleen and ideal. The concept of the fin’amor in Thomas’ Tristan The concept of fin’amor in Thomas’ Tristan is traditionally subject to two interpretations: either it is glorified as a religion, with lovers as its martyrs, or it is criticized within the framework of Christian principles. This paper proposes an alternative to such interpretative dichotomy: it attempts to prove that glorifying the fin’amor as an ideal does not mean idealizing the lovers. In fact, Thomas judges severely his characters not in the name of Christian religion but in the name of an entirely profane, yet highly spiritual ideal of courtly love. The lovers, although far from being its embodiment, still aspire and refer to it, suffering from their own imperfection. This tension is highlighted by the aesthetics of doubling characterizing Thomas’ writing.

The corrupted ideal and the rediscovered ideal. The function of metaphor in Donet baillié au roy Loÿs twelfth by Jean Molinet The subject matter of the analysis is an interesting poem by Jean Molinet. This paper focuses on the aspect of a certain nostalgia for the ideal which aims at both the semantic and poetic aspects of the poem. The existential ideal ‒ conceived from a spiritual perspective – is transmitted through a refined metaphorical system, conveying complex ideas and equivocal meanings, and covers two eponymous aspects, one of which turns out to be denied by the second. From an eschatological perspective, the author demonstrates how insignificant the old “worldly” ideal and alleged intellectual ideal will be in the eyes of God at the moment of Judgment. The opposition within the same metaphor of the two antithetical ideals is a process accentuating a revalorization of the existential perspective of the poet.

La Mort le Roi Artu and the Nostalgia of the Ideal Along with the Hellenistic novel and the pastoral novel, the chivalric narrative constitutes one of the three forms of premodern idealism. In close connection with the ineffable anthropomorphism of the novel, the narratives of chivalry distinguish themselves by placing the transcendent source at the heart of the society of men (T. Pavel, La Pensée du roman). The article investigates the part that nostalgia takes in the manufacture of the chivalric and courtly ideal starting from human resources (love, war), according to two principal poetics: the enchantment, the unpredictable, the desire (Yvain, le Chevalier au lion of Chrétien de Troyes) vs. the disenchantment, the irreversible, the regret inherent in the nostalgic charm (La Mort le Roi Artu).
阿尔图与理想的怀旧与希腊化小说、田园小说一样，骑士叙事构成了前现代理想主义的三种形式之一。与小说中难以言喻的拟人化密切相关的是，骑士精神的叙事通过将超越的源泉置于人类社会的核心而脱颖而出（T.Pavel，La Pensée du roman）。本文从人力资源（爱情、战争）出发，从两个主要诗学角度考察了怀旧在骑士和宫廷理想的制造中所起的作用：迷人、不可预测、欲望（伊夫，《骑士》中的主人公）与怀旧魅力中所固有的祛魅、不可逆转、遗憾（《阿尔图之死》）。

Nostalgia and translatio studii: “The image of dwarfs standing on the shoulders of giants” “We are dwarfs perched on the shoulders of giants,” this famous image that John of Salisbury attributed to Bernard of Chartres was very popular throughout the Middle Ages, and far beyond, until it became the motto of Google Scholar. First, it expresses the respect and admiration that the masters of the twelfth century had for the authors of Antiquity whose works they commented on. But the formula is more complex than it seems and is not reduced to its nostalgic and backward-looking dimension, it is also forward-looking and allows to affirm the idea of progress, the cumulative dimension of knowledge and translatio studii, since the dwarf perched on a giant sees farther than the one who supports him.

The Italian writings of Edvige Toeplitz Mrozowska on Soviet Central Asia and the Bolshevik revolution The aim of the paper is to answer the question about the attitude of Edvige Toeplitz Mrozowska to the Soviet revolution with which she entered in a direct contact during her travel to Tajikistan in 1929. In the period between 1930‒1933 she devoted two texts, important in her literary output, to the revolution and the reality of Soviet Central Asia. The first is an account of the expedition to the Pamir Mountains led by Mrozowska, and, apart from the geographical subject matter typical of such texts, it contains observations regarding socialist changes in the newly established Tajikistan, while the second one is not only a collection of sketches related to the analysis of revolutionary reality, but also a kind of project with historical and even historiosophical aspirations.

The article discusses the main premises of Anna Swoboda’s monograph La Prose de Ken Bugul : entre le réel et le surnaturel. Swoboda assumes that the key to deciphering the characteristics of Ken Bugul’s prose is the interpenetration of the two dimensions present in the work of this contemporary Senegalese writer: the real and the supernatural. The book analyzes the fantastic, marvelous and uncanny elements that constitute the supernatural aspect of Bugul’s hybrid prose, as well as examines the fragmentation and multifaceted identity of the autofictional female protagonist (in the part devoted to the real elements). The eclectic methodology combines Western and African research on non-mimetic fiction with postcolonial and feminist theories.

“A Burial at Paris” by Gustave Flaubert (Sentimental Education, 1869) The paper focuses on the passage on the burial of the banker Dambreuse in chapter IV of the third part of Sentimental Education (L’Éducation sentimentale, 1869) where there is a portrayal of the path from the final illness to the agony and, above all, to the tomb of a rich Parisian. The funerary scenography that Gustave Flaubert sets in this scene radicalises the break with the intimate code of death. It deprives the deceased of the role of protagonist of the drama to make room for the public management of death: the gestures and parades that regulate the ritual, beyond the collective and spiritual investment in death.
