The Construction of Literary History
February 21, 2011 to May 30, 2011, ENS, Paris (weekly)
Monday from 11 am to 13 pm
ENS, 45 rue d'Ulm, 75005 Paris, Salle Beckett
Spurred by a dialogue with the social sciences, ways of "doing history of literature" have greatly renewed recently, and invite us to ask ourselves the instruments, models and values which we use to give meaning to our literary past. What is an event in literature? What a century literature? Why are they the story more often domestic? Implied by a truly global perspective? What we say is that such "precursor", "contemporary" or "anachronistic"? How are born, evolve and reconfigure literary genres? Why are women virtually absent from the history of literature? According to which dynamic selections and omissions literary memory is built-it or weakens she ?
After an overall presentation, the sessions will be organized around case studies of literary change. We also host a series of conferences several visiting professorships, including Damien Zanone (professor of literature at the University of Louvain), specialist of the nineteenth century, the kind of briefs and feminine romance.
