Congratulations to Catriona Seth, the Marshal Foch Professor of French Literature, who was presented with the Palmes Académiques by Her Excellency Madame Catherine Colonna, the French Ambassador, at a ceremony at the Maison Française d'Oxford, on Friday 25 June 2021.

Chair of Faculty Board, Professor Almut Suerbaum, comments: "It is wonderful to see Catriona Seth's scholarly distinction as an expert on literature and culture of the Enlightenment, but also her profile as a committed European recognised by the French Republic."
