Autorenporträt
David Gascoigne is Honorary Senior Lecturer in French at the University of St Andrews, Scotland. His publications have largely focused on French narrative of the late twentieth and twenty-first centuries, including books on Michel Tournier, and on Georges Perec and ludic fiction. After excursions into Oulipian paratext, Dadaist poetry and the writings of Pascal Bruckner, he has more recently been preoccupied with the writing of Marie Nimier: his contribution here is the fifth article he has published on her work. Ana Maria Sousa Aguiar de Medeiros is Director of the Modern Language Centre at King¿s College London. She has published a number of volumes focusing on the writing of Francophone authors including Assia Djebar, Marie Nimier, Amélie Nothomb and Marguerite Yourcenar. Since 2016, she has been a co-investigator working with Language Acts and Worldmaking and a consultant for Memoirs, a Horizon 2020-funded project.
Rezensionen
«This volume constitutes a landmark in the study of one of France's foremost contemporary writers. 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)

«This diverse collection casts much-needed light on Marie Nimier's corpus and does full justice to the complexity and richness of Nimier's writing. It excavates with skill and sensitivity the multiple palimpsestic layers of the narrative self - whether historical, familial, sensorial or linguistic - and illuminates the relational resonances Nimier's texts provoke, both readerly and literary.» (Professor Siobhán McIlvanney, King's College London)
