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.
