French thinkers like Roland Barthes, Pierre Bourdieu, A.J. Greimas, Michel Foucault, and Claude Levi-Strauss created the "structuralist" and "poststructuralist" movements. They succeeded Sartrian existentialism and formed a new aristocracy of culture. French Intellectual Nobility is the first study to examine the conditions for the creation of these movements. Through case studies in cultural history, sociology, semiology, and literature, the book discusses the processes that enabled the French intellectual nobility to reinvent itself. By developing a historical and comparative approach, Kauppi analyzes the challenges that an intellectual generation faced, and he contributes to a context-sensitive analysis of culture and power.

The Endless Theory of Days: The Art and Poetry of Gérard Titus-Carmel seeks to set forth the case for the special, multiple genius of a man who, despite the experience of a biting melancholy resulting from loss, despite an ‘indefectible feeling of estrangement from the world’, despite, too, the corrosive sense of art’s, of languages’s, deceptiveness, has never lost sight of a curious duty to the shadows that haunt and that, with now a strangeness that smiles, yet beckon toward ‘the very place, finally clarified and recognised, of pure evidence. [The place,] that is, where beauty is named’. This place, Gérard Titus-Carmel may feel, lies no doubt impossibly beyond the strict locus of his art and his writing, but it is a place he has struggled with dignity and unceasingly deployed energy to bring to a semblance of incarnation in a vast plastic and poetical oeuvre that has stirred, and will continue to stir, the minds and hearts of all those – from Derrida and Bonnefoy, Alain Robbe-Grillet and Pascal Quignard to Jacques Dupin and Marie-Claire Bancquart, and countless others – who have witnessed its exquisitely solemn unfolding over, today, more than forty years.

"Frondeurs, contestataires, insolents et irrévérencieux, Roger Nimier, Antoine Blondin et Jacques Laurent--promus au rang de 'hussard' par la grâce de leur adversaire Bernard Frank--apportent à la France 'sérieuse' des années 1950 un subtil cocktail de désinvolture, d'ironie, d'humour et de mélancolie. Bientôt rejoints par Michel Déon, ils déploient à travers nombre d'essais, de pamphlets, de chroniques, d'histoires d'amour et de romans d'aventures une écriture de combat et de plaisir guidée par la liberté individuelle. Partant, ils refusent l'engagement sartrien et l'impératif moral selon Camus, mais réhabilitent des auteurs controversés comme Céline. Dans cet ouvrage appelé à faire date, Marc Dambre met en lumière une vie culturelle particulièrement intense ayant inspiré de nombreux artistes, tels les cinéastes François Truffaut et Henri Verneuil--qui adapte en 1962 le magnifique roman Un singe en hiver, d'Antoine Blondin ou encore les auteurs Patrick Modiano et Éric Neuhoff. Une synthèse indispensable."--Page 4 of cover.
