The notion of « exposure underlies much modern thinking about
identity, representation, ethics, desire and sexuality. This
provocative notion is explored in a collection of essay selected
form, and inspired by, the proceedings of a conference held in the
Department of French at the University of Cambridge in 2002. The
authors engage with exposure as both object and mode of
representation in a range of cultural media: literature, critical
theory, visual art and film. They analyse a variety of works from
the medieval, early-modern, and modern periods, examining not only
canonical texts such as Montaigne's Essais but also lesser-studied
works such as the psychoanalytic theory of Didier Anzieu, the
photomontage self-portraits of Claude Cahun, and the novel La
Nouvelle Pornographie by Marie Nimier. This volume thus both
illustrates and, more importantly, interrogates the richness of the
term « exposure, in a way that is stimulating for students and
researchers alike.
