Intro to Francophone World

Introduction au monde francophone / Introduction to the Francophone World

This course introduces a major theme in French studies, whose understanding has become absolutely indispensable—for French teachers especially—in its many aspects: history, society, culture, language. Coursework will therefore combine a study of the French-speaking regions, of ways of expressing identity through the French language, and of language meeting culture, with an analysis of transnational Francophone strategies for development and solidarity.

Text: A course pack will be provided.
