What were its manifestations in the eighteenth century? Why does it feel so familiar, even urgent, nowadays? This book proposes a completely new ontology of turmoil through study of its incidence and impact in the eighteenth-century francophone context. The interdisciplinary essays in this bilingual volume provide multiple illustrations of eighteenth-century instability and insecurity, as well as subsequent adjustments to a post-turmoil new normal. Each instance illuminates human resilience and the mechanisms of post-turmoil elasticity and adaptation in Enlightenment, revolutionary and post-revolutionary writing by female authors CharrieÌre and Monbart, in publications by male authors Beaumarchais, Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, Chamfort, Dupaty, Raynal, Sade and Voltaire, and also in writing by relatively unknown authors, journalists and critics, who capture the turmoil of the global francophone eighteenth-century world. The topics explored emerge as universal ones, familiar to a modern readership: textual and visual revisionism, symbolism within natural disasters, realignment of beliefs, instability of memory, repositioning of historical narratives, female insecurity, attacks on public figures, post-revolutionary resilience and the impact of exile. Through its unique identification of three key generative indicators for turmoil - phenomenon, paradigm shift, elasticity of adaptation - this volume's contributors deliver a distinctive, rich and new ontology of turmoil. 650 0 $a French literature $y 18th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Crises in literature. 650 0 $a Change in literature. 650 7 $a Change in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00852070 650 7 $a Crises in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01896181 650 7 $a French literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00934688 648 7 $a 1700-1799 $2 fast 655 0 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 700 1 $a Pierse, SiÌofra, $e editor. 700 1 $a Dunne, Emma M., $e editor. 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781800855052 $w (OCoLC)1332280232 773 18 $w 990075856550202771 $g no:31858072866548 830 0 $a Oxford University studies in the Enlightenment ; $v 2022:05. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117021810.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7CBF6592DDAE11EDB031D5162DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
