The diversity and originality of its critical approaches and the scholarship and creativity in evidence on every page make it essential reading for anybody interested in Marie Nimier, or in "self and subject" in contemporary writing.' - Professor Shirley Jordan, Newcastle University In the postwar literary culture of France, under the influence of Structuralism and its aftermath, deference to 'the text in itself' meant that literary studies eschewed discussing narrators or characters as subjectsand deriving social or political commentary from specific texts. In reaction to this trend, which also influenced the writing of novels, a new generation of authors have sought instead to focus on developing innovative ways of conceptualizing subjecthood, identity and agency. Marie Nimier's writing abundantly exemplifies this 'return of the subject' in the rich diversity of the fifteen novels she has published since SireÌne in 1985, blending fiction and life-writing. Her narrators/protagonists typically strive to achieve forms of agency which are made possible, yet also threatened, by the ostensible 'givens': heritage, memory, gender, relationships, desire, social environment and, not least, language itself. This volume explores central aspects of self and subject in her Åuvre, including in her most recent works, and closes with a short story Nimier formally publishes here for the first time in French with English translation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Critical essays originally in French and English.
