FREN 361 - Colloquium: Paris Rêvé, Paris Réel: the Modern City in Literature and Film


Semester Offered: Second Semester
Credits (Range): 3 hours
Attribute: 3HU, CD
This course approaches French cultural and intellectual history (1850-present) through the prism of France’s capital city. From Haussmann’s urban design to new forms of mobility (Métro; Vélib), Paris has repeatedly redefined modern urban culture. Moving between the history of Paris and its representation in literature and film, we explore the dialogue between city life and culture. Conducted in English. Opportunities for using relevant language skills will be offered.
