  North American Studies in France and Europe

  State of the Art and Future Prospects

  In 1980, François Furet established the first visiting chair in North American studies at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in partnership with the French-American Foundation. Yet, it was not until 1984 and the election of Jean Heffer as permanent full professor that the Center for North American Studies (CENA) came into being. Despite pioneering efforts in some English departments and the creation of the first university chair in North American history at the Sorbonne in 1967, there was significant disparity between the importance of the USA in the contemporary world and the weakness of North American studies in France. Over the last thirty years and under the supervision of Jean Heffer and François Weil, the CENA has become one of the leading institutions for North American scholarship in France and Europe.

  Leur na-rra-tion : narration au féminin de la nation canadienne / Her Na-rra-tion: Women's Narratives of the Canadian Nation

  Ce colloque met l'accent sur la nation canadienne dans sa dimension " textuelle ". A travers l'étude et l'analyse de textes écrits par des Canadiennes ou des femmes résidant au Canada, les chercheurs internationaux vont s'intéresser aux problématiques de l'écriture de la nation (à travers sa construction et sa formation) ainsi qu'aux questions qui en découlent : l'écriture de l'appartenance et de l'inscription (ou non) dans le projet national.
