Autorenporträt
Ruth Cruickshank is Senior Lecturer in French at Royal Holloway, University of London. She was educated at the University of Leeds and at Lady Margaret Hall and the Queen's College, Oxford. Her research investigates how post-war French writers, filmmakers, and thinkers respond to, resist, and contribute to the development of consumer culture in France. She investigates the political and aesthetic potential of turn-of-the-millennium French prose fiction; and the ways in which representations of food and drink in literature, cinema, and thought elucidate the relationship between aesthetic developments, consumption, and identity narratives in post-war France. She has written on Ernaux, Houellebecq, and Redonnet; on representations of food, drink, and consumption in the cinema of the Trente Glorieuses, Claire Denis, and Agnès Varda; and on globalization and symbolic violence in recent filmic images of Paris.
