In Negotiating the New in the French Novel, Teresa Bridgeman explores how discourse conventions are negotiated in innovative texts, arguing for the contextualised and social nature of the reading process. Focusing on canonic texts by Diderot, Balzac, Flaubert, Zola, Celine, Sarraute and Perec which challenged the reading habits of their contemporary audiences, Bridgeman analyses how they establish their own conventions, calling on their readers to revise their concepts of the novel and to adapt new modes of reading. This book offers a fresh view of the processes at work in texts whose innovations have now become the commonplaces of literary history. It will make fascinating reading for students of French literature - particularly of the nineteenth-century novel - and for students of stylistics and narratology.
