Though I have taught a wide range of
courses, I consider myself a specialist of contemporary French and
Francophone Literatures. In the first phase of my research, I focused
mostly on the evolution of French theatre from the 19th-21st centuries
through the filter of Media Studies (Radio-Television-Film). More recently,
I have begun to explore contemporary media and literary narratives from
both within and outside of the French tradition. Whether in literature or
in film, I am particularly interested in the notions of performative
gender, sexuality, subjectivity, and identity construction. Given these
research interests, my work is inherently interdisciplinary, intersecting
with the domains of contemporary French, North African, Sub-Saharan
African, and Caribbean literatures and cultures.
