CALL FOR PAPERS
Supplementary session, SFS, Dublin 4 July 2001

After the Society for French Studies regular workshop "Word and
Image in the late nineteenth century", to be held on the morning of
the 4 July, there will be a supplementary session in the afternoon to
mark the creation of a new British-Irish Nineteenth Century French
Studies Society, whose exact name is yet to be determined.

We hope that as well as providing an additional forum for a very rich
area of studies, this afternoon session will make it possible for some
of the many people working in nineteenth-century French studies to
participate in the formation of the new society.

We invite proposals for papers (in English or French) on the topic
"Alterity and Marginality". This might include such topics as
Francophone writing in the nineteenth century, representation of women
or by women, or the relationship between marginal sexualities and
nineteenth-century culture.

Please send proposals by 15 January 2001, preferably in
electronic format, to or failing that on
paper to the address below.
