Abstract
2008 Seminar Papers (Published 2009)
The essays in this volume are drawn from the sixteenth George Rudé Seminar in French History and Civilization, held in Brisbane from 9-11 July 2008 and hosted by the University of Queensland’s Centre for the History of European Discourses. The conference brought together scholars of modern French history from universities throughout the world, including Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, France, the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada. Keynote addresses by Colin Jones, Christine Bard and Fabrice Virgili were accompanied by nine panels exploring diverse themes in French history and civilization, from gender, the body and culture, to the transformation of the French nation state. The third “theme day” of the conference was dedicated to the subject “Revising gender and sexuality in nation, race and identity.”
