Word and Image: Putting Proust’s Pictures in Perspective

Sponsored by:
Studio Art, French and Francophone Studies, History of Arts and Architecture, Literary Studies, Theatre, and Axinn Center for the Humanities
Marcel Proust’s A la Recherche du Temps Perdu, one of the most profoundly visual works in Western literature, houses a vast repository of paintings. How does the novelist, in his frequent reference to both famous and obscure works of art, manage to evoke emotion, character, history? How do the verbal and the visual interact and illuminate one another?

analyses sur des Montréalais·es d’origine
