The renowned Russian writer Leo Tolstoy created a realistic masterpiece in Anna Karenina (1878). In the same work, moreover, he utilized allegory and symbol to an extent and at a level of sophistication unknown in his other works. In Browning's study, the author identifies and analyzes previously unnoticed or only briefly mentioned "linkages and keystones" found in two highly developed clusters of symbols, arising from Anna's momentous train ride and peasant nightmares, and of allegories, rooted in Vronsky's disastrous steeplechase. Within this labyrinth of symbol, allegory and structural patterning lies embedded much of the novel's most significant meaning. This study will be of particular interest to students and scholars of Russian literature, Tolstoy, symbol, allegory, structuralism, and moral criticism.

Après une longue période de purgatoire le moment semble venu d’une révision du goût à l’égard de l’oeuvre romanesque de George Meredith. Ce dernier aurait pu figurer dans la galerie des portraits dessinés par Lytton Strachey dans Victoriens éminents. Il représente de manière exemplaire les ambiguïtés et les contradictions du roman anglais à l’époque victorienne en raison des ambivalences de la culture et de la société anglaise, dès lors que l’essor industriel servi par l’impérialisme britannique entre en conflit avec les valeurs morales et la tradition conservatrice d’un pays qui refuse l’irrationnel des passions. Dans les grands romans de Meredith, L’Egoïste, Diane de-la-croisée-deschemins, La carrière de Beauchamp, Richard Feverel, Evan Harrington, les personnages féminins sont là pour rappeler la primauté de la nature et l’empire des passions sur un univers que les hommes pensent maintenir dans les bornes d’un bon goût et d’une bienséance anachroniques. La puissance corrosive de l’humour, figurée par la danse allégorique de « petits diables » sarcastiques, introduit dans l’oeuvre de Meredith un décalage singulier, très original, entre la réalité des faits et la fiction qui anticipe la fonction cathartique de la crise tragique. Cet essai a le mérite de présenter une vue d’ensemble des principaux romans d’un écrivain précurseur.

Jean Westwood called herself an unintentional pioneer. Although she worked hard to achieve what she did, she did not actively seek or expect to reach what was arguably the most powerful political position any American woman had ever held, chair of the national Democratic Party. A Utah national committeewoman and member of the reform committee that reorganized the party, Westwood answered George McGovern's call to lead his presidential campaign. In the dramatic year of 1972, she became "chairman" of the party, McGovern lost in a landslide, Nixon was reelected, and a covert operatio
