  • Modernist Aesthetics and the Artificial Light of Paris: 1900 to 1939
    Modernist Aesthetics and the Artificial Light of Paris: 1900 to 1939 Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Emma Elizabeth Reddy (MA Cantab) School of English University of Leicester February 2017 2 ABSTRACT Modernist Aesthetics and the Artificial Light of Paris: 1900 to 1939 Emma Elizabeth Reddy In this project the fields of modernist studies and science converge on the topic of lighting. My research illuminates a previously neglected area of modernism: the impact of artificial lighting on American modernist literature written in Paris between 1900 and 1939. Throughout that period, Paris maintained its position as an artistic centre and emerged as a stage for innovative public lighting. For many, the streets of Paris provided the first demonstration of electricity’s potential. Indeed, my research has shown that Paris was both the location of international expositions promoting electric light, as well as a city whose world-class experiments in lighting and public lighting displays were widely admired. Therefore, I have selected texts with a deep connection to Paris. While significant scholarship exists in relation to Parisian artificial lighting in fine art, a thorough assessment of the impact of lighting on the modern movement is absent from recent critical analysis. As such, this thesis seeks to account for literary modernism in relation to developments in public and private lighting. My research analyses a comprehensive range of evocations of gas and electric light to better understand the relationship between artificial light and modernist literary aesthetics. This work is illuminating for what it reveals about the place of light in the modern imagination, its unique symbolic and metaphorical richness, as well as the modern subject’s adaptability to technological change more broadly.

  • MEDIA POLARIZATION “À LA FRANÇAISE”? Comparing the French and American Ecosystems
    institut montaigne MEDIA POLARIZATION “À LA FRANÇAISE”? Comparing the French and American Ecosystems REPORT MAY 2019 MEDIA POLARIZATION “À LA FRANÇAISE” MEDIA POLARIZATION There is no desire more natural than the desire for knowledge MEDIA POLARIZATION “À LA FRANÇAISE”? Comparing the French and American Ecosystems MAY 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In France, representative democracy is experiencing a growing mistrust that also affects the media. The latter are facing major simultaneous challenges: • a disruption of their business model in the digital age; • a dependence on social networks and search engines to gain visibility; • increased competition due to the convergence of content on digital media (competition between text, video and audio on the Internet); • increased competition due to the emergence of actors exercising their influence independently from the media (politicians, bloggers, comedians, etc.). In the United States, these developments have contributed to the polarization of the public square, characterized by the radicalization of the conservative press, with significant impact on electoral processes. Institut Montaigne investigated whether a similar phenomenon was at work in France. To this end, it led an in-depth study in partnership with the Sciences Po Médialab, the Sciences Po School of Journalism as well as the MIT Center for Civic Media. It also benefited from data collected and analyzed by the Pew Research Center*, in their report “News Media Attitudes in France”. Going beyond “fake news” 1 The changes affecting the media space are often reduced to the study of their most visible symp- toms. For instance, the concept of “fake news”, which has been amply commented on, falls short of encompassing the complexity of the transformations at work.

I argue, first, that there is a unique and largely unexplored tradition of dialogue, collaboration, and mutual admiration between Cuban, French and Francophone artists; second, that a recurring and essential theme in these artworks is the representation of the human body; and third, that this relationship ought not to be understood within the confines of a single genre, but must be read as a series of dialogues that are both ekphrastic (that is, they rely on one art-form to describe another, as in paintings of poems), and multi-lingual.

  • Probing the Historical Sources of the Mauritian Miracle: Sugar Exporters and State Building in Colonial Mauritius Ryan Saylor∗
    Review of African Political Economy Vol. 39, No. 133, September 2012, 465–478 Probing the historical sources of the Mauritian miracle: sugar exporters and state building in colonial Mauritius Ryan Saylor∗ Department of Political Science, University of Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States Scholars increasingly agree that the ‘Mauritian Miracle’ was enabled by the country’s significant level of state capacity. This article probes Mauritius’s state-building past to identify the early sources of Mauritian state capacity. Specifically, I find that the close collaboration between the island’s export-oriented sugar planters, known as the Franco-Mauritians, and colonial officials accounts for the growth of Mauritian state capacity during the nineteenth century. Following the island’s first major commodity boom, in 1825, sugar planters pressed colonial officials to ‘regulate’ the island’s labour supply, improve its transportation infrastructure, and undertake research and development initiatives. These efforts collectively promoted the growth of state capacity and laid the groundwork for the country’s relatively capable state. The influence of Mauritius’s export-oriented coalition on state building may shed light on the country’s comparative success to other African countries, where export-oriented coalitions have been rare both historically and in the contemporary era. Keywords: Mauritius; sugar exports; commodity booms; coalitions; state building; political development [Sonder les sources historiques du miracle mauricien: les exportateurs de sucre et la construction des baˆtiments dans les colonies de l’Etat de l’ıˆle Maurice.] De plus en plus, les chercheurs s’accordent a` dire que le « miracle mauricien » a e´te´ active´ par le niveau important du pays par sa capacite´ d’E´ tat.
