De la conspiration de 1605 à V for Vendetta, du masque de Fawkes aux arcs de Robin, la légende du justicier rebelle continue d’évoluer dans la culture populaire.

Découvert juste à temps par Sir Robert Cecil, le complot échoue. Mais Cecil, en parlant de Guy Fawkes, le qualifie de « Robin des Bois » — un rebelle défiant l’ordre établi au nom d’une cause jugée juste.

En 1605, lors de la fameuse Conspiration des Poudres, un certain Guy Fawkes fut effectivement comparé… à Robin des Bois. Ce complot, mené par Robert Catesby et ses compagnons catholiques, visait à faire sauter la Chambre des Lords lors de l’ouverture du Parlement.

Aujourd'hui, on est le 5 novembre, jour où l’esprit de Robin des Bois a soufflé sur Londres. 🏹

J'ai récupéré cette impression A3 d'une page du Kelmscott Chaucer aujourd'hui. En prévision d'un certain colloque à Nancy. Forcément, petite pensée pour mon compère @hmedievaliste.bsky.social !

I haven't had the time to say anything about this issue of The Chaucer Review. I still can't belive my name appears in such a prestigious journal. And that is entirely thanks to the amazing @15thcgossipgirl.bsky.social who made sure I could be included.

Just received books I inherited from a colleague, Geneviève Nore, who passed away a few years ago. So strange to be the new owner of this collection. I was moved by the four-leaf clover she left in a Todorov book. Only an academic would do that!

Look what the cat dragged in! I can't wait to read this volume as I start working on Chaucer and the trauma of war - I'll talk about that during NCS 2026.

Summer's here. Which means it's time for agrégation students to get ready!
Just found my agreg copy of Middlemarch - I've lost count of the number of times I read. I'd love to see what your books look like after months/years of service.
