La contribution analyse quelques représentations des danseurs orientaux qui dansent habillés en femmes et cherche à répondre à la question de savoir si ces représentations forment une caricature de la femme orientale ou s'il s'agit d'un autre rêve pervers d ’Orient. La première partie présente la danseuse mâle et montre sa perception en Orient et en Europe. La seconde partie évoque la critique du comportement des danseuses mâles présente dans les relations de voyage de Jean Potocki et de Vivant Denon. Les trois dernières parties analysent trois descriptions datant des années 1840-1850, créées par Gérard de Nerval, Gustave Flaubert et Théophile Gautier. Il s'avère qu ’avec le temps, la caricature devient moins évidente qu'auparavant et les descriptions s ’esthétisent. Il n'est plus possible de ne faire que se moquer des danseuses mâles ou les condamner. Un nouveau rêve pervers d'Orient semble faire son émergence.

In one of the several accounts Théophile Gautier gave of the life and works of his friend Gérard de Nerval, he expatiated on the extraordinary modesty of the man. The tumult and turmoil of the age was destined to die down; the whisper of Nerval's voice has been echoed down the years, and has become sweet music. His poetical lineage has radiated in every direction, and constitutes the purest lyrical filiation of the century.

O presente artigo trata do processo de formação cenacular à época do romantismo francês, enfocando a participação dos membros do Pequeno Cenáculo (1829-1833). Esta confraria artística é composta por representantes da segunda geração de românticos franceses, tais como Pétrus Borel, Théophile Gautier e Gérard de Nerval, e elege como modelo de organização cenacular o Grande Cenáculo (1827-1830), liderado por Victor Hugo. A formação do grupo e as práticas de elogio e proteção mútuas, típicas da sociabilidade da camaraderie literária, são analisadas em sua relação com o estado específico do campo literário de 1830, às vésperas da conquista da autonomia, e com a expressão da autarquia artística dos jovens românticos. Finalmente, empreende-se a discussão acerca da legitimidade do cenáculo enquanto instituição literária.

Through the concept of archeofictions, this article rethinks the interface between fiction and archaeology in nineteenth-century France. By rejecting conventional categories such as ‘archaeological novel’, the corpus of fictional works under scrutiny is expanded, to encompass lesser-studied authors such as Bibliophile Jacob (Paul Leroux) and Gustave Toudouze, in addition to Gustave Flaubert and Théophile Gautier. Throughout the nineteenth century, archaeology was a discipline-in-the-making, dominated by textual methods, and lacking institutional recognition. The analysis aims to show the ways in which nineteenth-century imaginative literature encapsulated early archaeology's quest for epistemic autonomy and methodological struggles, while embracing the new patterns of thought for framing the past promoted by the nascent discipline.
