SUMMARY:Symposium in Homage to Michel Jeanneret (1940-2019)
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Jean-Claude Carron (Research Professor\, UCLA) \nPlease register here for the symposium on Zoom\n \nThis symposium convened to honor Michel Jeanneret (1940-March 2019) will memorialize the critical and creative achievements of one of the pillars of early modern studies today. We will bear witness to his pioneering contributions to the current critical discourse on French and European studies\, covering both the ancient and nouveau régimes\, from the Sixteenth century\, with\, among others\, Vinci\, Erasmus\, Rabelais\, Ronsard\, Montaigne\, to Versailles\, Nerval\, and contemporary French cultural politics (« Cinquante-huit réponses à Nicolas Sarkozy »\, Critique 2009). Participants will attest to how\, as a  literary scholar focusing on hermeneutic and textual interpretation\, the Genevan critic was also interested in culture\, philosophy\, visual arts\, architecture\, food\, society\, and\, recently\, digital humanities (Bodmer Foundation). Everything being said\, together we will assess how Michel Jeanneret\, the scholar\, the teacher\, and the humanist\, bears witness to what being human means. \nProfessor of French Literature at the University of Geneva\, Michel Jeanneret was one of the pillars of Sixteenth- and Seventeenth-Centuries French literature\, as well as humanist and Renaissance cultures of our generation. Well known in the US\, where he gave numerous lectures\, he served as Distinguished Professor at Johns Hopkins University and has held posts as Visiting Professor in Harvard\, Princeton\, Seattle\, Irvine\, as well as the College de France\, the Sorbonne\, and the Universities of Lausanne\, Nothingham\, Bristol\, Beijing and Kyoto. Frequent visitor to California\, Los Angeles\, and UCLA\, he was a guest lecturer at the CMRS and a visiting scholar in the French and Francophone Department. Among his works translated into English: A Feast of Words: Banquets and Table Talk in the Renaissance (Chicago\, 1991) and Perpetual Motion: Transforming Shapes in the Renaissance from da Vinci to Montaigne (Johns Hopkins\, 2001). Colleagues and friends from the US and Europe will participate in this international homage. \nProgram: \n9:00am\nWelcome: Marian Hobson Jeanneret and Jean-Claude Carron\n \n9:15am-10:15am\nSession I – Papers: ‘L’élégance d’un style’\nModerator: Walter Stephens (Johns Hopkins University) \n9:15am\nMax Engammare (Librairie Droz\, University of Geneva)\, Les premiers pas d’un grand critique \n9:35am\nFrédéric Tinguely (University of Geneva)\, L’écriture comme présence \n9:55am\nFlorian Preisig (Eastern Washington University)\, La générosité dans l’œuvre critique de Michel Jeanneret \n10:15am\nBreak \nModerator: Cynthia Skenazi (University of California\, Santa Barbara) \n10:30am\nMary McKinley (University of Virginia)\nMichel Jeanneret / Michel de Montaigne: Joy\, Movement\, Liberty \n10:50am\nFrank Lestringant (Paris 4 Sorbonne)\nUn XVIIe siècle décapé.
