Sur la figure du double et l’énigme du mal dans / L’Adversaire / d’Emmanuel Carrère, une histoire d’imposture criminelle by Juan Herrero Cecilia

“…Starting from Emmanuel Carrère’s L’Adversaire, a complex psychological tale about the impostures and horrible crimes perpetrated by Jean-Claude Romand, we want to highlight the link between this story and the mystery of Evil, with the combat that takes place within the human soul between the conscience and the irrational forces of the unconscious that operate the «demoniac double» that lives in us (Carrère calls this the «adversary» that prompts us to lie). …”

Una nación de monstruos. Occidente, los cinocéfalos y las paradojas del lenguaje by Paolo Vignolo

“…On the one hand, medieval Christianity (also influenced by Mongol and Chinese legends) promoted the view that the inhabitants of the remote borders of earth were barbarian - so-called because they were unable to develop a properly human language - and demoniac, banned from humanity. On the other hand, renaissance humanism, following the cynic school, reexamined the subject of half dog-half human beings in order to address the paradoxes of language. …”

“You Won’t Make It, Poet...”. Some Notes on Michelangelo’s Seven Sonnets, Translated by Vjačeslav Ivanov by Maria Ghidini

“…During the process of translating Michelangelo (1925-1926), Ivanov and Šor exchanged several letters on the subject, in which Michelangelo’s tragic nature is no longer seen in a demoniac dimension, typical of the Symbolist vision of the turn of the century, but is articulated in a more neo-Platonic perspective, in a re-evaluation of the Renaissance, no longer opposed to the medieval religious vision. …”

The Monstrous South: Gothic Characters in William Faulkner’s Absalom, Absalom! and Toni Morrison’s Beloved by Artea Panajotović

“…In the traditions of Gothic realism and postcolonial Gothic respectively, the authors describe the 19th-century South as populated with supernatural beings: demoniac slaveholders, monsters who try to fight oppression, zombies whose souls have been devoured by the oppressive system, ghosts and revenants who return to haunt their wrongdoers, and hybrids whose transgressive nature is feared by the oppressors and the oppressed alike.Keywords: American Gothic, American South, character development, slavery, hybrids, monsters, ghostsEven though, as Allan Lloyd Smith points out in his survey of the 19th-century American Gothic, American writers like James Fenimore Cooper and Nathaniel Hawthorne complained that the New World lacked Gothic material, that everything was too new, bright and devoid of mystery (163), certain characteristics of the American continent such as racism, slavery, Puritanism and the vicinity of the frontier and the unexplored wilderness beyond it have contributed to the shaping of American literature as, in the words of Leslie Fielder, “bewilderingly and embarrassingly, a Gothic fiction, non-realistic and negative, sadist and melodramatic – a literature of darkness and the grotesque in a land of light and affirmation” (qtd. in Worrall 165). …”
