Contributing to the current lively discussion of collaboration in
French letters, this collection raises fundamental questions about
the limits and definition of authorship in the context of the
nineteenth century's explosion of collaborative ventures. While the
model of the stable single author that prevailed during the
Romantic period dominates the beginning of the century, the
authority of the speaking subject is increasingly in crisis through
the century's political and social upheavals. Chapters consider the
breakdown of authorial presence across different constructions of
authorship, including the numerous cenacles of the Romantic period;
collaborative ventures in poetry through the practice of the
"Tombeaux" and as seen in the Album zutique; the interplay of text
and image through illustrations for literary works; the collective
ventures of literary journals; and multi-author prose works by
authors such as the Goncourt brothers and Erckmann-Chatrian.
Interdisciplinary in scope, these essays form a cohesive
investigation of collaboration that extends beyond literature to
include journalism and the relationships and tensions between
literature and the arts. The volume will interest scholars of
nineteenth-century French literature, and more generally, any
scholar interested in what's at stake in redefining the role of the
French author
