FREN 170 SC - The Mad Artist in French Literature (1830-1930)


A misunderstood artist paints a materpiece, destroys it, and then ends his or her life. This myth of the mad artist is the basis of 19th century French novels by Balzac, Mirbeau, Zola, Rachilde, and Sand. This course investigates the perceived historical, literary, and neurological connections between insanity and creativity.

Offered: Fall 2014
