By analyzing the work of playwrights in the line of Guilbert de Pixerécourt, Eugène Scribe, Edmond Rochefort, Ferdinand Langlé, Philippe François Pinel Dumanoir, Adolphe D’Enner y, Ferdinand La loue, Fabrice Labrousse, Théodore Barrière and Léon Beauvallet, among many others, we may better understand the path that both led to and followed the passing of the first law aimed at defending and protecting animals in France: the 1850 Loi Grammont. Some of the plays paved the way towards this legal shift, and some reflected its precepts in the aftermath of the act, stirring feelings of empathy towards animals amongst theatregoers. The ultimate objective of these plays was not the defense of animals per se (in the modern sense). However, their arousal of emotions linked to a Manichean spectrum of moral behaviors ranging from good to evil, their penchant for the triumph of virtue, and the pathos resulting from the verbal and physical abuse or, eventually, the (fictional) death of the animals in the melodrama, resonated with a shared feeling of humaneness that was integral to a reflection about what was considered beneficial for society.

They created a unique identity for themselves through discussions of common origin and history, making Jews into Hungarians. One of their main theories was that of Khazar ancestry, which, despite being controversial even in its own time, enabled stories of a common Judeo-Hungarian past and race to emerge. The Hungarian nationalism that was key to their self-definition underlay all arguments concerning the nature and ancestry of Hungarian Jewish identity. They not only created histories compatible with those of the Hungarians but also molded them into something new. Examining their narratives, we can rethink the conceptual framework of the modern Jewish experience and see the successes of integration from the minority’s point of view. In this way, we can detect another perspective on history, one that does not define the modern European Jewish experience as a story of either the success or the failure of assimilation as measured by the severity of anti-Semitism but allows the minority’s voice come to light.","PeriodicalId":42524,"journal":{"name":"NINETEENTH-CENTURY FRENCH STUDIES","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86652433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In these fin de siècle technological fictions, the American inventor emerges as an ambivalent figure hovering between scientific genius and hucksterish humbuggery. The real-life rivalry between Thomas Alva Edison and Charles Cros over the 1878 invention of the phonograph led to satiric forms of resistance to the United States as a land of vulgar mercantile utilitarianism threatening to decenter Paris as the cultural capital of the nineteenth century. Although evolving drafts of Villiers’s metaphysical novel seem to highlight the divine creative potential of “le ‘Sorcier de Menlo Park,’” L’Ève future retains less idealistic references to Edison’s commercial side as a Barnum-like businessman from America. Meanwhile, Le Rouge and Guitton’s fantasy of French scientific triumph over American millionaires counters the troubling lure of technical wonder and speculative energy from the land of the almighty dollar.","PeriodicalId":42524,"journal":{"name":"NINETEENTH-CENTURY FRENCH STUDIES","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84384136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article examines how the medium of photography serves as Marsena’s thematic underpinning, allowing Frederic to engage with the reputation of photography as a tool for recording truth and shaping historical memory. It discusses Marsena in the context of the late nineteenth-century literary response to the Civil War. Understanding the novella’s historical positioning also requires examination of the ways in which the photographic medium was imagined in the 1860s and again in the 1890s, when Frederic was writing. The process of writing a historical novel of the Civil War in the 1890s was always already shaped by the photographic record of the war, and Frederic’s choice of a profession for Marsena is not accidental. Instead, the medium of photography allows an exploration of larger thematic concerns about how the arts are used to represent and remember traumatic events of the past.","PeriodicalId":42524,"journal":{"name":"NINETEENTH-CENTURY FRENCH STUDIES","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83624488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
