Literary Translation, Reception, and Transfer
The three concepts mentioned in the title of this volume imply the contact between two or more literary phenomena; they are based on similarities that are related to a form of ‘travelling’ and imitation or adaptation of entire texts, genres, forms or contents. Transfer comprises all sorts of ‘travelling’, with translation as a major instrument of transferring literature across linguistic and cultural barriers. Transfer aims at the process of communication, starting with the source product and its cultural context and then highlighting the mediation by certain agents and institutions to end up with inclusion in the target culture. Reception lays its focus on the receiving culture, esp...
Internal Difference and Meanings in the Roman de la Rose
Argues that the 13th-century French poem can best be understood not by trying to resolve or choosing among the diverse meanings within it or among the myriad of interpretations by scholars and medieval and modern readers, but to accept those differences and reflect on our own willingness to accept to reject those meanings as a guide for a love or morality.

Regards sur le locus horribilis. Manifestations littéraires des espaces hostiles
Le topos du 'locus horribilis' a toujours été défini comme l?inversion du locus amoenus, et cela explique le faible intérêt qu?il a suscité jusqu?à présent. Les contributions de ce volume analysent non seulement les lieux horribles de la tradition culturelle, mais aussi ceux qui deviennent hostiles de par la relation que l?homme construit avec eux. Ainsi, à travers les parages légendaires du Moyen Âge, la géographie imaginaire rabelaisienne, les grottes et les mines des Lumières, les espaces de souffrance intérieure, de crime ou de dépaysement des récits contemporains, le topos originel devient l?expression d?un drame ou d?une tension qui touche aussi bien l?univers de la fiction que le procès même de l?écriture.
