There was, however, a national link amongst the universities whose association, the australian society of French studies (asFs), held an annual conference. 1996 saw the world Congress of the Fédération internationale des professeurs de Français (FipF) in tokyo. at that time, the south australian French teachers association was a member of the FipF. although saFTA only represented south australia, it was perceived on the international scene to be the voice of teachers of French in australia. Elected president, in tokyo, of the Commission asie-pacifiqueof the FipF, i had the pleasure of attending – until the next world congress in 2000 in paris – the annual meetings of the Conseil d’administration of the FipF. at these council meetings, it became apparent that the preferred mode of operation was a national body to represent the interests of French teaching in each country, as it made communication much easier. Thus the idea took shape; i contacted all associations of teachers of French in the states of australia to launch the concept of an affiliation. 7 Explorations and Encounters in French Each association would continue to exist, keep its independence, but gain the solidarity of being a national body and achieve a national profile. The personnel of the French Embassy in Canberra warmed to the idea and facilitated several meetings of presidents of associations. an affilia- tion or federation would create contact between associations, the sharing of initiatives and ideas would be possible and a national conference could be envisaged. Theas Fs was also involved in the negotiations to make a feder- ation truly representative of all levels of the teaching of French in australia. in 2003, the Federation was born after a meeting convened by the attaché linguistique of the French Embassy, Jean poncet, in Melbourne. Christopher Thorburn, president of the south australian French teachers association, was elected president of the founding committee. in 2004, at the meeting convened in adelaide to ratify the FatFa constitution, and to conduct the elections of the newly constituted federation, i became the president and pursued the idea of our inaugural national conference. a dynamic conference committee, made up largely from members of the committee of saFTA, and incorporating interstate members of FatFa, acknowledged in this publication, met regularly to create the programme. it was a rewarding pleasure to work with such committed colleagues. The success of the conference in July 2006 was due to their efforts and, par- ticularly, to the management of the conference at the University of adelaide by Jean Fornasiero. and so was born the FatFa inaugural Conference: “Exploration et Rencontres”, which took place on the 8 and 9 July 2006. The two days of the aF tFa conference were part of The French Con- nection, an event which incorporated the conferences of the asFs and the George Rudé seminar in French History and Civilization, which were also held at the University of adelaide, and a number of public lectures held at different cultural institutions on Northt errace, in a week of activities with a truly French focus. The aF tFa conference began on the Friday evening, 7 July, with a cocktail at the Hilton Hotel, where guests were entertained by a live jazz 8 Foreword and acknowledgememts band coordinated by Max Franklin. we were further entertained at the Conference dinner on 9 July at the University of adelaide’s National wine Centre by two stalwarts of French song in south australia, Chris simpson (member of the organizing committee) and andrew Mckenzie, who com- bined their talents with those of susie Newman and Jess taylor. besides such successful social events, we had two highly productive days during which we reflected on many aspects of the teaching of French and French-speaking culture. sophie Moirand’s paper on the discourse used by the press when reporting on violent events and on its role in con- structing our collective memory was powerful. The elegant and humorous narrative by François Grauby, novelist and academic, of her own and her students’ initiation into French literature reminded us of the pivotal place of culture in the teaching of language. Rémy porquier shared with us his extensive reflections on the place of grammar in real communication and on the European Framework for languages. laurent delahousse, Consul Général de France en australie, dealt with the European context of recent French legislation relative to the problems of the “banlieue” and also par- ticipated in a debate with the Hon. Michael atkinson, attorney General and Minister for Justice and Multicultural affairs, sa Government, on Multiculturalism and Nation-building. whilst the “rencontres” theme of the conference was a

Each chapter is devoted to an individual novel and explores its hero's feelings of socio-psychological estrangement on personal and interpersonal levels as well as the role of the train journey which serves to arouse, create or alleviate such feelings. Chapter One deals with Sanshiro (Sanshiro. 1908) by Natsume Soseki and follows the hero on his long train journey from backward Kyushu to progressive Tokyo.

The insistence that all facilitators have doctorates in the humanities is, on the other hand, a requirement that the National Endowment for the Humanities builds into all its educational program grants. Some of you have had to ask for exceptions to this requirement, and in all instances, we have approved these exceptions because you have come up with people who are both experienced teachers and also have a special interest in film, literature, and/or aging. In short, we are fully confident that you will all do an excellent job introducing your students to this new, timely, entertaining and yet extremely important subject, one that promises to have a direct personal impact on its participants.

  • THE MAN on the TRAIN (L'homme Du TRAIN)
    THE MAN ON THE TRAIN (L'HOMME Du TRAIN) Country: France Distributor: Paramount Classics Director: Patrice Leconte Lds: Jean Rochefort, Johnny Hallyday, Charlie Nelson, Isabelle Petit-Jacques Running Time: 90 English Subtitles Ratings: NR Acclaimed director Patrice Leconte (THE WIDOW OF ST. PIERRE, RIDICULE) brings his usual mastery of cinematic nuance to the utterly fascinating THE MAN ON THE TRAIN, a Gala Presentation at the 2002 Toronto International Film Festival. Leconte's casting of Johnny Hallyday (France's greatest living rock star) and Jean Rochfort (France's leading stage and screen star) in the two lead roles is cause for excitement in itself. For an English language equivalent to this casting, imagine a cinematic pairing of Elvis Presley with Sir Laurence Olivier! Hallyday plays aging, reluctant gangster Milan, who arrives on the late train in a small French town in the provinces to case a bank. When he discovers the town's only hotel is closed, he meets Manesquier, a retired schoolteacher, in a chance encounter at the late night pharmacy. Talkative, outgoing Manesquier offers Milan a room in his decaying mansion and Milan accepts, seeing a good opportunity to hole up for a few days before the bank job. The two men are a riveting study in contrasts. Milan, quiet, moody, virile, reserved, a prowler from a world of leather jackets and guns; Manesquier, verbose, convivial, harmless, curious, a scholar from a world of pipes, slippers and classical poetry. Over the course of the next two eventless days, the mismatched pair feels an unexpected pull towards the other's habits and lifestyle.
