Oxford Univ. website, viewed Aug. 28, 2017: (Prof R W Scholar; Richard Scholar, M.A. D.Phil., Chevalier dans l'Ordre des Palmes Académiques; Professor of French and Comparative Literature, Fellow of Oriel College; Research: My main research interests lie in early modern French literature and thought, and include comparative and interdisciplinary work in several other fields as well as early modern studies, among them translation studies, critical methodologies, and postcolonial Francophone Caribbean studies. In each of these fields, my research is principally concerned with the keywords, linguistic structures, and literary forms that writers use to test the limits of thought and expression and that thus reveal specific cultural instances of what it is to be human. I am the author of two books: Montaigne and the Art of Free-Thinking (2010; revised paperback edn, 2017) and The Je-Ne-Sais-Quoi in Early Modern Europe: Encounters with a Certain Something (2005).
