This collection presents a sort of counter-history or
counter-genealogy of the globalization of French thought from the
point of view of scholars working in the UK. While the dominating
discourse would attribute the US as the source of that
globalization, particularly through the 1966 conference on the
Languages of Criticism and the Sciences of Man at Johns Hopkins
University, this volume of essays serves as a reminder that the UK
has also been a principal motor of that globalization. The essays
take into account how French thought and literary theory have
institutionally taken shape in the UK from the 70s to today,
highlight aspects of French thought that have been of particular
pertinence or importance for scholars there, and outline how
researchers in the UK today are bringing French thought further in
terms of teaching and research in this twenty-first century. In
short, this volume traces how the country has been behind the
reception and development of French thought in Anglophone worlds
from the late 70s to the present.
