The Laboratorium: Nineteenth-Century French Studies in the Anglophone Sphere (Part II)
This is the second instalment of a two-part thematic review of nineteenth-century French research in the Anglophone sphere. The review sets aside the standard sub-disciplinary categories in order to envision a laboratorium, a space of multiple confluent and contiguous lines of exploratory work. In this space, more fluid thematic connections surface between projects irrespective of their focus, their methodology, or their scale, revealing some of …

Poetry, Care and Value: Jean-Michel Maulpoix’s Une histoire de bleu (1992)
Contemporary French poetry – and poetry more generally – has much to gain from current thinking around care and empathy in humanities research. Critical focus on the work of repair and consolation in narrative literatures of the past and the present resonates with poetry’s motivation and its agency. Reciprocally, the ‘care turn’ can begin to expand its reach and deepen its significance through immersive readings of poetry alert to the imbrication…
In it together, in Zola? Empathic Encounters in Naturalist Fiction
At a time when the “empathy turn” is bringing disciplines from psychology to philosophy, and from ethics to literary studies, into ever-closer dialogue, Zola’s fiction offers intriguing, complex examples of empathy. Framing my reading of three major novels of Zola relative to contemporary narrative empathy studies and broader societal concerns around empathy, I demonstrate how the Naturalist empathic narrative mobilizes the reader in the act of r…
Critical lives: Arthur Rimbaud
This highly engaging new biography, in the acclaimed Critical Lives series, brims with scholarly insight and moves along with verve. Seth Whidden wears his erudition lightly and illuminatingly as h
Modernist Monstrosity in Rimbaud’s Verse and Prose Poetry
Rimbaud’s poetry and poetics contribute to the prodigious genealogy of monstrosity in Western literature and visual culture. This article argues that monster figures – whether the “familiar” terrors of iconographic tradition, horrible hybrids, or everyday bogeymen – are central to the transformative momentum of modernism in Rimbaud’s verse and prose poetry. Monstrosity – multifariously embodied and endlessly morphing – generates social, cultural,…
Thinking Colour-Writing: Introduction
Together the contributors explore the colour capacityactual and potentialof their chosen texts; they track the variable agency of colour in writing; and they engage in the migration of colour concepts from critical thought and theory to the practice of reading texts visually and, especially, chromatically.Modern and contemporary poetry and narrative in French have an intense and sustained relation to visual practice in forms and formats that incl…
Francis Ponge et Eugène de Kermadec: Histoire d'un Compagnonnage
New Ekphrastic Poetics
The ‘visual turn’ has been foundational and formative for literature studies, for word-and-image research, and, increasingly, for cultural studies, including Thing theory.1 Over the past twenty years researchers across the broad modern period in French studies have engaged in the innovative study of visual–verbal relations, with particular emphasis on literary impressionism, avant-garde poetics, Surrealism, and the nouveau roman.2 Discipline-defi…
Joie de vivre in French Literature and Culture: Essays in Honour of Michael Freeman
The apparent self-sufficiency of joie de vivre means that, despite the widespread use of the phrase since the late nineteenth century, the concept has rarely been explored critically. Joie de vivre does not readily surrender itself to examination, for it is in a sense too busy being what it is. However, as the essays in this collection reveal, joie de vivre can be as complex and variable a state as the more negative emotions or experiences that a…
