Institution:

Knox College

Subject:

Description:

This course begins with a reflection on the concepts "nation" and "national identity" and thproceeds to identify and analyze the institutions and iconography that constitute the "deep structure"of France. How do the French remember the past How have they "reconstructed" it How do they view the world around them and their place in it How do they view each other As we attempt to find answers for these and other questions, it is necessary to look at those watershed events in French history that have over time transcended their reality and have been transformed into the myths that underlie and establish French identity.
