On Tuesday, May 15th 2018 we invite you to the keynote lecture of the Faculty Francophone Seminar: 'Aimé Césaire and the Hermeneutical Circle, or, How We Know What We Know' by Professor A. James Arnold. The speaker will share his insight into the works of the famous Martinique author and founder of the négritude movement in Francophone literature.

Professor Arnold is one of the leading specialists in the field, with several publications dedicated to Césaire, including The Complete Poetry of Aimé Césaire in 2017. The subject of 'Aimé Césaire and the Hermeneutical Circle, or How We Know What We Know' is the shift in epistemological assumptions from retrospective to prospective editions of an author’s work.

The talk will be held in the Main Hall of the Taylorian Institute at 5 pm. The event is open to all and no booking is required. For further details, please, follow this link.
