UC Irvine FlashPoints Title Capital Letters: Hugo, Baudelaire, Camus, and the Death Penalty Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0r30h8pt ISBN 9780810141537 Author Morisi, Eve Publication Date 2020 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Capital Letters The FlashPoints series is devoted to books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplinary frameworks, and that are distinguished both by their historical grounding and by their theoretical and conceptual strength. Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how liter- ature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present.
