SUMMARY:CANCELLED Writing History in a Time of Revolutions: The Arab Novel in English and the Quest for a Narrative
DESCRIPTION:A Conversation with Alexis Tadié \n\nTHIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.\nADVANCED REGISTRATION REQUIRED BY 12PM PST ON 5/19/25\n\nWednesday\, May 21\, 2025\n3:00-5:00pm PST\nKaplan Hall Room #348 (third floor)\n  \nThis talk is part of the Edward W. Said Series organized by Dr. Anjali Prabhu\, Professor and Edward W. Said Chair in Comparative Literature.\n\nAbout the Talk\nThis paper focuses on Arab novels in English which address the 2011 Arab revolutions. I will investigate how these novels are caught between the urge to write about the present moment\, and the acknowledgment of its complex temporal nature. By looking in turn at novels from Libya\, Egypt\, and Syria\, I hope to bring to light their quest for a narrative of the revolutions. \n  \nAbout the Speaker\nAlexis Tadié is professor of Anglophone literatures at Sorbonne University and honorary senior research fellow at the Institut Universitaire de France. He specialises in eighteenth-century literature and intellectual history\, as well as in sports studies\, and in postcolonial literatures. His recent publications include Les règles du jeu à l’époque de la première modernité. Eds. Line Cottegnies\, Clara Manco\, Alexis Tadié. Paris : Classiques Garnier\, 2025; Writing from India: Literatures in English. Special issue of Etudes Anglaises 77/2. (2024)\, Edited by Alexis Tadié. \n  \nCampus Parking\n\nThe closest parking structure to Kaplan Hall is Structure 2\, followed by Structure 5 and Structure 4.
