| Description: |
This guide reviews French literature from the Renaissance to the 1990s, reflecting the new critical perspectives and approaches of French studies. Social and historical placing of texts is combined with literary-critical assessments of the evolution and adaptation of genres, forms and techniques. |
| Synopsis: |
In a lively chronological narrative, this new guide situates original readings of authors and texts within the literary, historical and socio-cultural contexts of their production and charts the mutations of printing and publishing, the growth of literacy and the changing nature of the reading public. Writers and writings relegated to the margins of the canon are reassessed. New directions in contemporary thought, women's writing and Francophone literature are a feature, together with important concepts of contemporary critical theory. |
