About this course

Conducted in French. This course will study the history of the French language as it was first written and compare it to new discoveries and narratives about the language. While the history of the French language has been represented as a linear and natural path towards national monolingualism, the reality of the formation, development and use of French is different. We will study how: texts from the ninth to the seventeenth centuries reveal the diversity of the use and formation of the language; French was imposed as both a practice and a concept of monolingualism; the use of French has been reconfigured in its former colonies.
