Birth and Death in Nineteenth-Century French Culture
This volume draws contributors from around the globe who represent the full range of approaches to scholarship in nineteenth-century French studies: historical, literary, cultural, art historical, philosophical, and comparative. The theme of the volume – Birth and Death – is one with particular resonance for nineteenth-century French studies, since the nineteenth century is commonly perceived as an age of new life and renovation. It is the epoch that witnessed an efflorescence of industrial and artistic progress, the birth of the individual and the birth of the novel, and the creation of an urban population in the major demographic shift from the rural provinces to Paris. At the same tim...
Mastering the Marketplace
Mastering the Marketplace examines the origins of modern mass-media culture through developments in the new literary marketplace of nineteenth-century France and how literature itself reveals the broader social and material conditions in which it is produced. Anne O'Neil-Henry examines how French authors of the nineteenth century navigated the growing publishing and marketing industry, as well as the dramatic rise in literacy rates, libraries, reading rooms, literary journals, political newspapers, and the advent of the serial novel. O'Neil-Henry places the work of canonical author Honoré de Balzac alongside then-popular writers such as Paul de Kock and Eugène Sue, acknowledging the import...

One Hundred Years of History of the French Communist Party
The Communist Party appeared a hundred years ago on the French political and social scene. According to opinions and moments, it has been the party of Moscow, of those shot, of the working class, of the union of the left, the party of the foreigner or that of the nation. It has been underground, in government, in town halls, in factories or in the streets. Some considered it too revolutionary, others not enough. More than others, it aroused passions, positive or negative. It attracted many and repelled just as many. After the fall of the USSR, it decided to remain a communist party, while many others gave it up. But it no longer has the place it once had, in reality as in the imagination. This book does not intend to judge, but to provide keys to understanding. It is based on a considerable number of archives that are now available and is an ordered and distanced look at an object that is not lacking in complexity and no doubt even in mystery. This book has been translated from French to English thanks to a financial help from the Gabriel Péri Foundation and the LIR3S UMR Cnrs 7366 of Dijon.
Les romancières sentimentales: nouvelles approches, nouvelles perspectives
La literatura popular y, dentro de ésta , la figura de la mujer, han sido y son los focos principales de los estudios llevados a cabo por el grupo de investigación de la Universidad de Lleida, dirigido por Àngels Santa y M.Carme Figuerola. En este volumen se presentan casi una veintena de trabajos, centrados en la novela la romántica, desde el siglo XVII hasta la actualidad. A través de la crítica literaria y el análisis exhaustivo, autores y autoras intentan otorgar a cuentos, relatos y novelas románticas el valor que les corresponde y que, a menudo, se les ha cuestionado.
Documentando la memoria cultural
Durante siglos las escritoras habitaron los márgenes de lo establecido: rechazaron las convenciones sociales que buscaban limitar su libertad como entes políticos y creativos, y rompieron el silencio al que parecían condenadas. Estas autoras crearon personajes femeninos igualmente exocanónicos, que vivían y hablaban desde el umbral, desestabilizando el discurso hegemónico con su mera existencia. Estos personajes se convierten con frecuencia en alter ego de la autora para ofrecer una profunda reflexión sobre el papel de la mujer en su sociedad. Asimismo, son parte fundamental de la experimentación formal y temática de estas autoras y del cuestionamiento que hacen al canon literario. ...
