This collection engages with questions of influence, a vexed and problematic concept whose intellectual history is both ancient and vast. It examines a range of texts written in French, sometimes in dialogue with visual/musical works, drawn mainly from the eighteenth century onwards. Connections are made with related work in a range of disciplines.

“This volume of essays considers various manifestations of ‘influence’ in modern French literature and is a welcome addition to the Palgrave Studies in Modern European Literature series. … this volume provides a valuable contribution to our understanding of the term ‘influence,’ … and it will interest literary scholars and historians alike.” (Audra Merfeld-Langston, Studies on 20th & 21st Century Literature, Vol. 40 (2), 2016)
