These two articles

    http://page.mi.fu-berlin.de/~prechelt/Biblio/jccpprt_computer2000.pdf 
    http://www.haskell.org/papers/NSWC/jfp.ps 

about language comparisons (Python is in the first but not the second)
might be of interest.

If you want to know how to implement C, there is a pretty good book by
Hanson and Fraser about LCC, called "A Retargetable C Compiler".
Basically a code walkthrough of a small C compiler written in C.
