Marie Cardinal

What impact did Cardinal's texts have on the 1970s feminist movement? What is her position in relation to French women's writing and the French literary tradition today? This volume brings together a series of papers given at the first international conference on the influential feminist author Marie Cardinal. Leading critics of Cardinal's oeuvre engage in analysis alongside new commentators in the field. The collection provides an extensive yet cohesive overview of Cardinal's writing, including original commentaries on earlier works like Cet été-là, popular classics like Les Mots pour le dire, and more recent texts including Amour... amours... Contributors provide new perspectives on Cardinal's oeuvre, drawing from a range of areas of scholarly interest including film studies, life-writing, postcolonial discourse, critical theory, gender studies, and reception theory.
