CONTENTS

I would never have been able to write this book without the support of many friends and colleagues in London, Montreal, France and elsewhere.

I am grateful to Yoram Allon, Commissioning Editor at Wallflower Press, for his interest in the project at the very beginning, and his ongoing support as the manuscript gradually took shape over the months and years. Several colleagues read early drafts of chapters and provided invaluable feedback, including Vincent Bouchard, Jenny Chamarette, Sbastien Ct, Libby Saxton and Frank Runcie. Naomi Segal and Gill Rye offered advice and opportunities to present some of this project as a work in progress while I was a visiting fellow at the Institute of Germanic and Romance Studies at the University of London.

Friends inside and outside academia have helped by providing distraction and encouragement when needed, and here I wish to thank Abi Brown, Donna Barry, Tess Marais, Izabella Potapowicz, Aino Rinhaug, Caroline de St Quentin and May Telmissany.

Last, but certainly not least, my family have been there for me throughout. My husband, Chris Minns, offered both unwavering patience and a ruthless critical eye, and Colin and Lucy have provided a daily reminder of the importance of life beyond the life of the mind. This book is for them.
