Duras, Femme du Siècle
This collection of conference papers focuses on Marguerite Duras's place within the major literary, political and cultural events that helped define the 20th century. It covers the broad areas of Duras's public persona and paraliterary writings, her engagement with the image and with theatre, the implications of her politico-cultural trajectory, and her representations of the body, sexuality and transgression.
The Crimes of Marguerite Duras
This book studies Marguerite Duras's use of mass media and criminal faits divers as critical components of her literary project.
Revisioning Duras
The extraordinary range, complexity and power of Marguerite Duras – novelist, dramatist, film-maker, essayist – has been justly recognised. Yet in the years following her death in 1996, there has been a increasing tendency to consecrate her work, particularly by those critics who approach it primarily in biographical terms.

Les enseignants dans la société française au XXe siècle
Pour comprendre le poids de l'éducation en France dans son rapport avec la société, il faut mettre au centre des évolutions les enseignants qui forment un groupe hétérogène, perméable aux idéologies. Par leurs associations, ils participent aux luttes et aux mouvements d'opinions qui traversent la société française. Avec leur élargissement progressif, conséquence de « l'explosion scolaire », après la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, ils font des choix politiques, transmettent les valeurs fondamentales du régime dominant tout en conservant leurs distances par rapport aux pouvoirs. Au-delà des aspects de l'activité syndicale, sans laquelle le monde enseignant ne peut se comprendre...
