SUMMARY:The State of the Nation Novel: Contemporary French Fiction and So
 cial Critique
UID:20240531-8a1785d88f7bd45a018f81986d46467a@warwick.ac.uk
CREATED:20240516T133001Z
DESCRIPTION:On Friday 31st May\, the SMLC will be holding a study day on 
 the contemporary French novel. The day will bring together some of the l
 eading scholars in French studies from the UK as well as from France and
  further afield\, to explore how contemporary fiction can offer forms of
  social critique and articulate expressions of nationhood. In particular
 \, we will be asking whether the idea of the "State of the Nation Novel"
 \, frequently used of novels written in English\, might be of critical u
 se in the French and francophone sphere. The day aims to theorize\, prob
 lematize and critique the hypothesis of a contemporary ‘Condition-of-Fra
 nce’ novel\, defining its possible contours\, characteristics and limita
 tions. (An outline of the day's programme can be found below.) This stud
 y day may be of interest to those working on contemporary fiction in Eng
 lish\, expressions of socio-political critique or of nationhood\, or who
  situate their research more broadly in a comparatist perspective. It wo
 uld be wonderful to see colleagues from ECLS at the event\, whether in p
 erson or online\, and you are very welcome to join us. To register\, ple
 ase follow the link below https://forms.gle/6HYrbjM3uU3bPAyX8 (Registrat
 ion will be open until 22nd May. Please note that registration fees de n
 ot apply to PGRs) · For any other questions/info\, please contact stateo
