This new joint project will give the opportunity to some of our researchers to discuss with the general public the topics they've been working on.The conferences will allow the public to become familiar with highly relevant research topics in the History of Science, Literature and Politics.

 

On Friday 28 May Justine Feyereisen will give a short talk in French on 'Femmes et récits de filiation: Mémoire familiale et postcoloniale de l'île Maurice dans l'oeuvre de J.M.G. Le Clézio' (Women's Filiation Stories: Familial and Postcolonial Memory from Mauritius in J.M.G. Le Clézio's Work). She will discuss the matter with the public and answer their questions too.
