Beauregard
Beauregard est une invitation à nous promener, non comme des amateurs de sites ou de curiosités, mais en passants et en rêveurs, attentifs aux harmonies du ciel et de la terre, aux données du matin, ou du soir quant " le vert des prairies et des forêts devient comme de l'encre ou presque. "
La Matta
Endormies au coeur de cette journée reposent d'autres journées semblables, journées d'enfance a travers lesquelles erre comme une ombre la Matta, la folle.

Travellers' Visions
Travellers' Visions adds another perspective to ongoing debates over colonialism with an examination of the intercultural relations between France, a major colonial empire for nearly three centuries, and Japan, a country that has remained mostly autonomous throughout its existence. In this analytic history of French literary images of Japan, from soon after its reopening to the West to the present day, Kawakami examines the work of many of France's most revered authors including Marcel Proust, Paul Claudel, and Roland Barthes, along with other, lesser-known writers and artists, such as Loti and Farrère, as they embarked on journeys—literary and real—to this "exotic" land. Authors are discussed according to type— journalists, diplomats, or collectors, for example—and the close readings are accompanied by Gérard Macé's beautiful and rarely seen photographs. Travellers' Visions offers new clarity to current intellectual debates and will be a valuable resource to students and scholars of French literature and Asian history alike.
Adrien Pasquali, chercher sa voix entre les langues
Questionner les frontières - du monde réel, de la raison et de la folie, du silence et de la parole, ou celles des langues. Tenter de guérir d'un défaut d'origine par l'exercice de la traduction. Passer enfin de l'étude des autres ou du pastiche à l'invention de soi: telle fut l'ambition d'Adrien Pasquali, dont l'oeuvre protéiforme ressemble à une autobiographie de l'esprit. Fils d'immigrés italiens né à Bagnes (en Valais) en 1958, auteur d'une thèse de doctorat sur Ramuz et d'une œuvre critique abondante, il était devenu l'un des meilleurs auteurs de sa génération. II s'est donné la mort à Paris en 1999, vouant sa trajectoire d'écriture à un fondamental inachèvement. " ...
Journeys of Remembrance
"The Second World War was a common experience of cultural and historical rupture for many European countries, but studies of this period and its after-images often remain locked in national frameworks. Jones' comparative study of national memory cultures argues for a more nuanced view of responses to shared issues of remembrance. Focusing on the 1960s and 1970s, two decades of great change and debate in French and German discourses of memory, it investigates literary representations of the Second World War, and in particular the Holocaust, from France and both Germanies. The study encompasses thirteen works representing a variety of genres and divergent perspectives, and authors include Jorge Semprun, Peter Weiss, Georges Perec and Bernward Vesper. Addressing the underlying theme of travel as a means of exploring the past, it contrasts the journeys made by deportees and post-war visitors to the camps with the use of the journey as a literary device."
The Modernist Traveler
The Modernist Traveler considers figures whose writing about travel rebelled against a literary tradition of exoticism, adventure stories, and novelistic travelogues. Instead these writers initiated a modernist strain in travel writing and a shift in the literary establishment and the culture at large. Kimberley J. Healey focuses on those French writers and thinkers who traveled in order to experience a displacement of both the inner self and the physical body while writing against the prevalent tradition of travel literature. ø The modern self, modern time, colonial spaces, and the physical body are Healey?s concerns as she reads works by Victor Segalen, Paul Morand, Blaise Cendrars, Henri Michaux, Saint-John Perse, Guillaume Apollinaire, Paul Nizan, Albert Londres, Andre Malraux, Valäry Larbaud, and Isabelle Eberhardt. This book shows how, in the field of French literature, these texts about travel best capture the modernist experience of being alone in a world of new technologies, cultural diversity, and anxiety about the self.
