Nicholas Paige Assistant Professor of French Professor Paige offers courses ranging from theorizing (early) modernity to postmodern fiction and the economics of literature. His research interests center on cultural transformations in the reign of Louis XIV. His current research project involves a study of early French attempts to write crime, envisioned as part of a larger problem involving relations between fiction, superstition, and belief in fin de règne (1680-1715) culture. His publications include Being Interior: Autobiography and the Contradictions of Modernity in Seventeenth-Century France; "L'affaire des poisons et l'imaginaire de l'enquête: De Molière à Thomas Corneille," in Littératures Classiques 40 (2001), and "Enlightened (Il)literates: Gender, Writing, and the History of a Cultural Obsession" in Studies in Early Modern France 6 (2001). |
