We will study the life and culture of France with special emphasis placed on the changes that are slowly but radically transforming French society: the increasing influence of the European Union; the influx of immigrants from Africa and other parts of the world; the growing role of "Beurs" and other French citizens born of foreign parents; the increasingly dominant position of women; the globalization of French culture, technological progress, etc. We will also concentrate on developing vocabulary and improving written and spoken French. Lectures, discussions, TV newscasts, films and internet. Prereq: Fr 201D, or placement by examination.

ART OF THE CREATIVE IMAGINATION: EMOTIONS, MEMORIES, AND WORDPLAY We will address the themes of love, memory, imagination, court life, and the urban landscape in poems by Ronsard, Hugo, Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Valéry, and Ponge as well as in plays by Corneille, Molière, Racine, and contemporary playwright Yasmina Reza, among others. Our study will focus on the expression of emotions, the construction of memories, and the power of words to sustain and also to change meanings, values, and lives.

FORBIDDEN FRUIT. Ever since the original apple from the tree of knowledge or the golden apple of discord, societies have constructed their notions of right and wrong around the symbol of forbidden fruit. We will read texts whose heroes and heroines strive to overcome or choose to perpetuate the obstacles to their desires. En route, they explore the nature of desire, questioning how it can or why it cannot be fulfilled. Authors include Chrétien de Troyes, Montaigne, Lafayette, Prévost, Zola, and Gide.

REALISM, SURREALISM, FANTASY. French cinema has vacillated between the poles of "the real" and "the fantastic" since the earliest experimental films of the Lumière brothers and Georges Méliès. In this history of French cinema, we will be exploring the tension between these two cinematic currents. The first melodramas depicted social classes with realistic care, yet often employed the theme of the "monstrous" to enhance their manichean morals. Similarly, Poetic Realism's careful attention to historical and realistic detail in no way diminished the heightened and almost metaphysical symbolism of their working-class dramas. The New Wave is also marked by an intriguing tension of documentary narrative styles juxtaposed with an often absurd anti-realism. Finally, we will explore the use of the "conte" to describe contemporary films that prefer "le happy end" to the conventional ambiguity signalling the conclusion of a French film. Why are happy films necessarily "fairy tales"? How does the "fanciful" ending affect the psychological realism of the characters? Realist, naturalistic and neo-realist films will include works by Renoir, Carné, Rohmer, Laurent Cantet and the Dardenne brothers, while surrealist and anti-realist films will include much of Bunuel's and Godard's work; La Science des rêves; and Emmanuel Carrere's La Moustache. "Fairy tales" include Amélie, Marius et Jeannette, and Samba.

Advanced French and Translation

L34 French 4131

Building on the foundation established in the third year, this course aims at an in-depth knowledge of the French language and accuracy in its use. It will use a comparative approach (linguistic and cultural) and systematic exercises to attain this goal, and to assist students in the demanding task of translating, both from English to French and from French to English. This course mainly offers practical training using a wide range of document types, developing strategies of translation, and sensitizing students to the problem of cultural transfer. Prereq: French 307D, and French 308D or French 318D. Writing Intensive. May be taken in place of 411 toward the completion of the French major. PRIORITY IN REGISTRATION WILL BE GIVEN TO FRENCH MAJORS. Registrants for this class will be waitlisted; all French majors will be admitted from the waitlist, then non-majors will be admitted as space permits.

This course is intended to acquaint students with basic ideas and issues raised by a diversity of voices in contemporary feminist literary and cultural theory. Readings will cover a wide range of approaches and tendencies within feminism, among them: French feminism, Foucauldian analyses of gender and sexuality, LGBTQ theories, feminism and disability studies, Third World/postcolonial feminism, and feminism of women of color in a global context." Given that feminist theories developed in response to and in dialogue with wider sociopolitical, cultural, and philosophical currents, the course will explore feminist literary and cultural theory in an interdisciplinary context. NOTE: This course is in the core curriculum for the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies graduate certificate. Prereq: Advanced course work in WGSS or in literary theory (300-level and above) or permission of the instructor required.

Ever since their conquest of Algiers in 1830, the French have been fascinated by writing from and about North Africa. Beginning with nineteenth-century French travel narratives about Algeria, colonial-era writing defined ideas of the "exotic." As Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia gained independence from France in the mid-twentieth century, North African authors often wrote their own postcolonial literature in the language of their former colonizer. These authors and their contemporary descendants continue to create and challenge the ideas of postcolonial francophone literature today. The main seminar sessions are taught in English, with additional required weekly undergraduate discussions (section A) in French. Prerequisites: for undergraduates, French 325 or French 326 or French 383 or the equivalent WU transfer literature course from Toulouse or Paris; for graduates not in French, reading knowledge of the language.

We will study desire as measured through the things we acquire, display, idolize, and control. Objects lie at the heart of struggles for love, possession, and dominance. Objects include jewels and houses and other things that we build and consume-material things that we see, touch, hear, smell, and taste to enhance our lives. Objects also refers to the men and women caught in love triangles, family struggles, and acts of deception, as it does to lovers subject to the manipulations of others. We will examine letters and body parts in Abélard and Héloïse; roses in the poetry of Ronsard; paintings in Lafayette's PRINCESSE DE CLÈVES; the organization and selected articles of the Encyclopédie; gifts in LA DAME AUX CAMÉLIAS by Dumas fils; exquisite everyday objects in Ponge's poetry; the novel in Butor's MODIFICATION; sharks in Ono-dit-Biot's prize-winning contemporary novel PLONGER. The class will consider materialism; the accumulation of wealth; woman as object; the art of seduction; and places charged with memories. Visual works from each period, including still lifes, genre paintings, and landscapes, will help us explore the function of description as rooted in the observation and recording of phenomena, and thus to the irrepressible human desire to know. Prereq: Fr 325 or Fr 326 or French 383 or the equivalent WU transfer literature course from Toulouse or Paris. One-hour preceptorial required for undergraduates.
