Ententes – à partir d’Hélène Cixous is the result of a collaboration between Stéphanie Boulard (Georgia Tech) and Catherine Witt (Reed College). It interrogates the interaction between writing and visual arts in the works of contemporary French writer Hélène Cixous and explores different links and perspectives between the readable and the visible, poetry and philosophical thoughts. 16 international scholars and writers have contributed to the volume as well as several contemporary artists. Hélène Cixous herself gave an unpublished piece.
Stéphanie Boulard (Ph.D, Emory University, 2006) is Associate Professor of French in the School of Modern Languages at Georgia Tech and an affiliate of the French Research Center Groupe Hugo-CERILAC (EA 4410) of Université Paris-Diderot, France.
Her research and teaching interests include 19th-century literature, 20th-21st-century literature and culture, visual arts, film, feminine writing, Francophone studies, French modern art and urban culture, and contemporary critical theory. Professor Boulard is the curator of both the French and Francophone Film Festival and the French Speaker Series at Georgia Tech, and has created the French Club Library there.
