SUMMARY:New York City in French Literature\, Lecture by Dr Stève Puig (St John's University)
DESCRIPTION:“New York City in french literature: a symbol of the “American dream” (or nightmare?)” \nVery few cities have inspired as much great literature as the Big Apple. Most American readers will remember a few passages from Manhattan Transfer by Dos Passos in 1925 or\, more recently\, the Paul Auster New York Trilogy originally published sequentially as City of Glass (1985)\, Ghosts (1986) and The Locked Room (1986). \nWhen it comes to French literature\, two visionaries have paved the way for today’s authors: Louis-Ferdinand Céline and Paul Morand. The former described New York in Journey To The End Of The Night published in 1932 highlighted both positive and negative aspects of New York\, a city that was “standing absolutely erect” obsessed with money but also a “majestic” place for a divine experience. For Paul Morand who wrote New York in 1929\, the city is just as impressive as it is despicable.\nThese ambiguities persist in contemporary literature. In my talk\, I would like to offer a brief survey of French novels published after September 11 and analyze a few passages which 1) can be seen as tributes to the original visions of both Céline and Morand and 2) highlight this ambiguous vision of New York as both a symbol of the American dream and a hellish place where the only God is money. \nDr. Puig is currently Assistant Professor of French Literature & Culture at St John’s University where he teaches civilization courses\, French Caribbean literature\, contemporary French literature and language classes. Prior to St John’s\, he taught at the University of North Carolina\, Hunter College and Medgar Evers College in New York.

SUMMARY:On Work and Suicide in Neoliberal France
DESCRIPTION:This lecture\, given by Professor Sarah Waters (University of Leeds\, UK)\, will address the sharp rise in workplace suicides in France since the 1990s and examines some of the socio-historical causes of this rare phenomenon. Based on a research project conducted over 82 suicide cases that occurred across three French companies between 2005 and 2015\, this presentation challenges the prevalence of the medical sciences in our understanding of suicide and draws instead on a rich sociological tradition to argue that workplace suicide is a social phenomenon that transcends the individual and reflects lived conditions of human labor following the transition to neoliberalism.
