Paperback / softback
Description
A reexamination of 1970s France as a decade of intellectual, cultural, and political consequence, both then and now Number 143 of Yale French Studies, “The French Seventies,” reintroduces and reorients readers to a decade typically considered a period of disillusionment and malaise in the wake of the 1960s.
This collection of essays, edited by Richard J. Golsan and Lynn A. Higgins, shows that the era was in fact a period of intellectual, cultural, and political ferment.
It was a time not of spectacular leaps forward but rather of searching, regrouping, and cultivating trends that would flower in the 1980s and beyond, for better or worse. The volume offers interdisciplinary scholarly essays on history, film, national identity as articulated in the mode rétro, social and literary movements, and more.
Interviews and personal history essays by major figures who actively participated in this decade add further dimension to this broad collection.
