About:

Sébastien Roldan joined the Modern Languages and Literatures department in the Summer of 2019. His research on the great French novelists of the 19th century (Hugo, Balzac, Zola, Flaubert, Maupassant, Daudet) focuses on the dialog that occurs between literature and philosophy in literary texts, be it prose, poetry, or drama. His dissertation tackled the question of suicide in the realist novel. He has studied and worked in Paris, Strasbourg and Montreal.
