1. Fieldwork and Fiction : Ethnography and Literature in the French Caribbean
Sammanfattning : The birth of French Caribbean literature is in many ways tied to a nontheorized and circumstantial use of ethnography.

3. “Closed Place, Open Word” : Reading the Postplantation in Earl Lovelace, Milton Murayama, and Ntozake Shange
Sammanfattning : This dissertation focuses on three authors who came of age in the 1980s, Earl Lovelace, Milton Murayama, and Ntozake Shange, reading their novels set respectively on Trinidad, Hawai‘i, and the Sea Islands, as postplantation expressions.

5. Aux frontières de l’anthropocentrisme : la présence animale dans les romans de Michel Houellebecq
Sammanfattning : This dissertation sets out to explore the animal presence in the novels of contemporary French writer Michel Houellebecq.
