Did the heroic age of the French intellectuals end with the great ideological conflicts of the last century? Or is the role of French intellectuals evolving in response to the domestic and global challenges of today? To discuss this, Gavin Bowd (Department of French) will be in conversation with Philippe Forest, an award-winning novelist, biographer and critic. Forest's recent works include literary portraits of Napoleon and Winston Churchill.
