ABSTRACT By investigating what it calls the literary-scientific imagination, this article refocuses critical attention towards new nineteenth-century French scientific knowledge in texts outside the realist ‘canon’. Chateaubriand’s Atala (1801) reveals French natural scientific nomenclatures illuminating significant, non-Western, knowledge. Scientific discovery in ‘provincial’ France proves discipline- and genre-defining in Adrien Cranile’s little-studied Solutré (1872). Sand’s fantastical-dystopian Laura ou Voyage dans le Cristal (1864) demonstrates important re-educational review of imperial scientific progress. The shared peripheral visions, effets de l’irréel and critical-creative scientific possibility of these indicative texts demonstrate the richness of the (nineteenth-century) French literary-scientific imagination for onward study.
摘要通过考察所谓的文学科学想象，本文将批判的注意力重新集中在现实主义“正典”之外的文本中的19世纪法国新科学知识上。夏多布里昂的《阿塔拉》（1801）揭示了法国自然科学命名法，揭示了重要的非西方知识。法国“省级”的科学发现证明了阿德里安·克兰尼（Adrien Cranile）很少研究的《索鲁特》（Solutré，1872）中的学科和流派定义。Sand的奇幻反乌托邦作品《Laura ou Voyage dans le Cristal》（1864）展示了对帝国科学进步的重要再教育回顾。这些指示性文本的共同的外围愿景、irréel的影响和批判性的创造性科学可能性表明了（19世纪）法国文学科学想象力的丰富性，可供进一步研究。

ABSTRACT Gender-focused studies of nineteenth-century French literature and history in the last few decades have often relied on heteronormative and gender normative paradigms. Using Rachilde as an example, I demonstrate how trans studies can offer tools through which to recover the gender-creative past. These tools are meant to work in concert with feminist and queer theories, while centering gender in a broad sense by focusing on challenges to the gender binary, modes of gender expression, attention to the material body, and a felt sense of gender.

ABSTRACT This essay surveys recent francophone historiography of the Nineteenth Century. It focussed on three areas of research in particular: the french tradition of l’histoire des sensibilités; historical works that grapple with time, space, and scales of analysis; and the poetics of writing history in dialogue with literature. In each of these areas, the essay finds evidence of innovative and creative scholarship that is changing our understanding of nineteenth-century France and the French empire.
本文概述了19世纪法语国家的近代史学。它特别侧重于三个领域的研究:法国传统的l 'histoire des sensibilit哀伤;与时间、空间和分析尺度作斗争的历史著作;以及在与文学对话中书写历史的诗学。在这些领域中，本文发现了创新和创造性学术的证据，这些学术正在改变我们对19世纪法国和法兰西帝国的理解。

ABSTRACT This is the first instalment of a two-part thematic review of nineteenth-century French research in the Anglophone sphere. The review sets aside the standard sub-disciplinary categories in order to envision a laboratorium, a space of multiple confluent and contiguous lines of exploratory work. In this space, more fluid thematic connections surface between projects irrespective of their focus, their methodology, or their scale, revealing some of the major transversal routes of research across the recent past and the present, and, speculatively, into the future. The two-part review explores biography / body / earth / emotion / experiment / movement / thing.

ABSTRACT This essay takes the Paris underground as a ‘naturalcultural contact zone’ that allows us to consider what current eco-critical discussions of the Anthropocene might contribute to nineteenth-century French studies. Although the origin-point of the anthropocene era continues to be debated, some scholars point to late eighteenth-and early nineteenth-century geological theories of deep time as causing a crisis of representation; the Paris basin emerges as a stratigraphic site that makes visible the incommensurability of human and Earth timescales. I put recent critical work on non-human agency of la terre into dialogue with writings by Nadar, Simonin, and Balzac.

ABSTRACT Cosmopolitanism has been the subject of considerable recent academic inquiry, but the frequently vexed concept has never attracted much interest, to date, in French studies. Yet a cosmopolitan ethos is central to women's cultural production in nineteenth-century France and provides a valuable lens through which to consider networks of meaning and collaborative conversations across the boundaries of nations/languages/cultures. I read George Sand's Consuelo (1842-43) and the career of mezzo-soprano Pauline Viardot-Garcia (1821-1910), to whom the novel was dedicated, as interdependent expressions of women's cosmopolitanism marked by a shared vision of cross-cultural engagement with the politics of difference, mobility, and identity.

ABSTRACT This introduction presents an overview of key critical developments arising in nineteenth-century French and francophone studies over the two decades since the inception of Dix-neuf, and then provides synopses of the articles in the special issue it introduces in terms of their engagement with and advancement of those developments. It identifies further areas of inquiry that fall within the scope of research by dix-neuviémistes: those already existing which are sufficiently broad and significant to warrant special issues of their own, and those newly emerging that offer new opportunities for scholars in this constantly evolving and vibrant disciplinary field.

ABSTRACT The ‘historical turn' has been particularly fruitful and enabling in nineteenth-century French studies, and methodological approaches that might broadly be described as ‘historicist’ remain dominant within the subfield. Yet these approaches inevitably privilege certain types of literary critical thinking over others, and may even obscure some of the ways in which literary texts have, or can be given, meaning. They also tend to posit the audience of work in nineteenth-century French studies as being composed primarily of other specialists. I suggest that ‘taking a break’ from historicism might facilitate new conversations about nineteenth-century French literature, with new interlocutors.

ABSTRACT This article focuses on the topic of minor intimacies or attachments in the work of Berthe Morisot (1841–95). By analysing three inter-connected areas in Morisot, namely the absorbed self, female friendship and the material history of painting, and by comparing the works studied with other well-known Impressionist paintings by Manet and Renoir, and how each area impacts upon spectatorship, this article shows the importance of intimacy as a critical tool with which to gain a more complete understanding of modern life and art in late nineteenth-century France.
