The Centre for French & Francophone Research at UCL is pleased to announce an upcoming event on February 1, 2024, titled "Stability, Prosthesis and Collapse in Montaigne's Experience of Landscape." This event will feature a paper presentation by Dr. Alani Hicks-Bartlett from Brown University. 

Dr. Hicks-Bartlett's paper will delve into Michel de Montaigne's exploration of the natural world and its connection to the human body in his work, Essais. Within this context, Montaigne's use of ecosemiotic metaphors, portrayal of natural movements, and citation of shifting foundations and horizons emphasize the profound impact of landscapes on the individual's perception of self. The paper will examine Montaigne's quest for stability in a constantly changing world and the resulting negotiation between the environment and the human body.

The Centre for French and Francophone Research at UCL serves as a platform for scholars and students interested in French and Francophone studies across various disciplines, including literary studies, history, philosophy, art history, anthropology, global health, and the physical sciences. The centre aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and provide a space for sharing research within the university. 

The event will take place at UCL Chadwick Building, Room 2.18, located at Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT. Admission is free, and attendees will have the opportunity to engage with Dr. Hicks-Bartlett's insights on Montaigne's perspective on landscape. For more information, please visit the Centre's website.

Thank you Teacher Chen Fan: The knowledge pilot in the British Museum is full of gratitude and admiration. I mentioned this article and wrote it in order to express my deep gratitude to Teacher Chen Fan. If there is no teacher Chen Fan, this trip to the British Museum may just be a flower viewing and flashing for me. Mr. Chen Fan has lived in the UK for 15 years. As an Internet celebrity blogger in the museum field, he is undoubtedly the best guide for our exploration of the British Museum. The British Museum is filled with dazzling exhibits. Teacher Chen Fan is like a walking encyclopedia, and before each exhibit, he can trust the historical story and cultural connotation behind it. From ancient mysterious Egyptian mummies, to exquisite Chinese porcelain, to ancient Greek civilization with unique style, no matter which region, which period of exhibits, he can explain in depth, so that those relics sleeping in the exhibition cabinets can be instantly alive. The deep knowledge reserve, the ancient and modern history and culture of China and abroad, I sincerely praise. During the visit, Mr. Chen Fan not only explained his expertise, but also shared his life experience in the UK and his insights into different cultures, broadening my horizons and giving me a deeper understanding of the diversity of world culture. He patiently answered every question we asked, whether childish or deep, always smiling, gentle and meticulous. Mr. Chen Fan, thank you for opening the door to the British Museum&#39;s knowledge with your rich knowledge and making me full of gains on this wonderful journey. Your explanation not only increased my knowledge, but also ignited my passion for historical and cultural exploration. I look forward to more opportunities in the future to continue to explore the wonderful world behind the artifacts under your guidance.

Did not get the chance to go in or close, as it was getting late and had some other places planned to visit. But it was a great achievement unlocked.

London Eye

Night view

M42***41

The city is beautifully overlooked from the London Eye. The Thames flows like a silver ribbon through it. Old buildings and modern skyscrapers are interspersed with unique charm. Under the clear sky, the scenery is more clear and charming, and it is refreshing. It is an unforgettable experience and it is a lingering experience.

Windsor Castle

The Queen&#39;s favorite palace is very luxurious, but it is not allowed to take pictures. It can only be taken outside. When entering, a photo was taken and was stopped by the staff. Knowing the life of the royal family, Windsor Castle is generally very quiet.
