Arguably, the myth of Shakespeare is a myth of universality. Much has been written about the dramatic, thematic and ‘humanistic’ transference of Shakespeare’s works: their permeability, transcendence of cultures and histories, geographies and temporalities. Located within this debate is a belief that this universality, among other dominating factors, is founded upon the power and poeticism of Shakespeare’s language. Subsequently, if we acknowledge Frank Kermode’s assertion that “the life of the plays is the language” and “the secret (of Shakespeare’s works) is in the detail,” what then becomes of this myth of universality, and how is Shakespeare’s language ‘transferred’ across cultures? In Asian intercultural adaptations, language becomes the primary site of confrontation as issues of semantic accuracy and poetic affiliation abound. Often, the language of the text is replaced with a cultural equivalent or reconceived with other languages of the stage – song and dance, movement and music; metaphor and imagery consequently find new voices. Yet if myth is, as Roland Barthes propounds, a second-order semiotic system that is predicated upon the already constituted sign, here being language, and myth is parasitical on language, what happens to the myth of Shakespeare in these cultural re-articulations? Wherein lies the ‘universality’? Or is ‘universality’ all that it is – an insubstantial (mythical) pageant? Using Ong Keng Sen’s Search Hamlet (2002), this paper would examine the transference of myth and / as language in intercultural Shakespeares. If, as Barthes argues, myths are to be understood as metalanguages that adumbrate social hegemonies, intercultural imaginings of Shakespeare can be said to expose the hollow myth of universality yet in a paradoxical double-bind reify and reinstate this self-same myth.

Les naines brunes sont des astres incapables de déclencher et soutenir des réactions nucléaires dans leur cœur. En l’absence de cette source d’énergie, leur luminosité diminue avec le temps jusqu’à leur extinction complète. Leur flux aux longueurs d’onde de 0,8 à 2,35 μm est particulièrement altéré par l’humidité contenue dans l’atmosphère terrestre, ce qui complique l’étude de ces astres. Le but de la présente recherche est de vérifier si la division par un spectre d’étoile A0 est un moyen de corriger l’altération causée par l’atmosphère terrestre sur cette partie de leur spectre. Tout d’abord, des notions, pertinentes à la compréhension de ce travail, sont abordées. L’introduction présente quelques notions sur les naines brunes et sur l’atmosphère terrestre. Le deuxième chapitre concerne le traitement des données. Il traite de la calibration, de la mise en évidence du problème de non-répétabilité de la position de la fente du spectromètre SIMON ainsi que de ses causes. Il porte aussi sur l’uniformisation de la réponse des pixels et de la soustraction du ciel pour extraire les spectres. La méthode employée pour étudier l’effet de l’atmosphère terrestre sur les spectres de naines brunes y est présentée. Le troisième chapitre analyse les résultats obtenus par l’utilisation de l’étoile de référence de type A0 comme calibration pour corriger le spectre de naine brune, en assumant un même effet de l’atmosphère terrestre sur les deux types d’astres. Nous ne pouvons conclure, avec certitude, que l’absorption tellurique affecte de la même façon les deux spectres ni de quelle façon exactement ils sont affectés. Une recherche supplémentaire nécessitant de nouvelles prises de données à des masses d’air et à des taux d’humidité variés est requise.

It is generally accepted that some of the unsettling scenes of the Italian metaphysical painter Giorgio de Chirico, arose from his response to the northern Italian city of Turin, a city he claimed a great affinity with. While de Chirico’s paintings and commentary of this period abound with references to Turin, there has been little investigation into how genuine these citied locations really are. We know that de Chirico’s preference for Turin arose from his passionate engagement with the writings of the philosopher
Friedrich Nietzsche and Nietzsche’s fondness for the city. Yet there is much evidence to suggest that Munich, the city of de Chirico’s early art school days permeated his imagery more completely; whereas Turin reflected his philosophical and aesthetic concerns. This article examines how cities have operated for the artist and how using iconography from both the world of the real and imagined produced powerful enigmatic images that evoked a profound mood of illusion and revelation.
