FRENCH 148b: Mettre en scene les classiques. Monter L'Illusion comique
4.00 Credits
Harvard University
This course focuses on the preparation of a student-led production of L'Illusion comique, a French play of the 17th century, and concludes with a performance in French at the end of the semester. To react to the challenges we will face in staging L'Illusion comique, we will examine the diversity of performance theories and practices in the 17th century through the close readings of a given set of plays (Racine, Moliere, Rotrou, Tristan l'Hermitte), as well as the main trends in the contemporary staging of classical plays, through video versions of recent performances.

FRENCH 155: Metamorphoses of the Vampire
4.00 Credits
Harvard University
The vampire took on a prominent and lasting iconic form -- ironically, as the ever metamorphosing Dracula -- in Bram Stoker's 1897 novel. But the vampire began its sweep through French literature well before its fin-de-siecle apotheosis in Britain. We'll ponder the aesthetic and political uses of the nineteenth-century vampire as it corresponds to cultural fears and desires, as it figures in Baudelaire, Nodier, Balzac, Gautier, Maupassant, Rachilde, Stoker, Coppola, and theory.

French 161: Walk, Look, Write: Flanerie and Fugue
4.00 Credits
Harvard University
As we read nineteenth-century French texts (e.g.: Balzac, Tristan, Baudelaire, Flaubert, Zola, Rachilde, David-Neel), we'll focus on the figure of the flaneur (strolling observer) and the power of his gaze to construct Realism and cultivate Naturalism. Correlatively, as we read the flaneur, we'll look for the absent or invisible flaneuse, and the even more elusive fugueuse (runaway woman). Writing assignments will include both critical essays and creative writing in the mode of what we read.
