This book, which is the fruit of papers presented at the seventh Cambridge French Graduate Conference, offers innovative analyses of how space can provide metaphors for human thoughts, utterances and experiences. The authors cross-fertilise different approaches to the significance of space as a thematic and structuring principle in French and Francophone poetry, prose, philosophy and film. They are interested in three broad areas of enquiry: how spaces can be suffused with explorations of identity; how the dividing work done by maps marks and makes spaces; and how particular questions are thrown up by urban spaces. Throughout, the book examines the symbiotic relationship between internal and external, between delimitation and difference.

The Editors: Emma Gilby is Research Fellow at Emmanuel College, Cambridge. She specialises in seventeenth-century French literature, with a broad interest in the relations between aesthetics and ethics in that period. She is working on a book on Corneille, Pascal and Boileau and their engagements with the sublime.
Katja Haustein is completing a Ph.D. thesis at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, on 'Life, Writing and Photography in Proust, Benjamin and Barthes'. Her recent work includes an article on conceptions of selfhood and otherness in Proust's A la recherche du temps perdu.
