Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E a de Queir s' work has primarily been studied within the context of French literature and culture. This book presents a different E a. Focusing on the years that he lived in Paris, it demonstrates how the periodicals he himself conceived and edited were modeled on dozens of Victorian ones such as the Contemporary Review, the Review of Reviews or the Idler, as well as on some American ones such as the Forum, the Arena, and the North American Review. This book shows us an E a who is undeniably an Anglophile, an E a long seduced by the diversity and originality of English thought, an E a increasingly distant from the French cultural model which had marked his education. Teresa Pinto Coelho is Full Professor and Chair in Anglo-Portuguese Studies at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa.
