Nineteenth-Century French Studies vol. 50, nos. 3-4, Spring-Summer 2022
The Editorial Board of Nineteenth-Century French Studies is pleased to announce the publication of volume 50 numbers 3–4 (Spring–Summer 2022). In addition to a special section on race in the long nineteenth century edited by Daniel Desormeaux, the issue includes a range of articles and reviews that highlight the breadth of the discipline: from recorded sound in imperial conquest and wartime in France, slavery, madness, psychiatry, and bacteriology throughout France and its colonies to Sand, Hugo, empathy in realism, and Mélanie Waldor. As such, it continues the journal’s longstanding tradition of covering the full range of studies of nineteenth-century French literature and related fields.
A full table of contents is below and also online at www.ncfs-journal.org.
