  • Reviewing Blindness in French Fiction, 1789–2013

    de Hannah Thompson ...
    Series series Literature, Cultural and Media Studies (R0)
    This book argues that the most interesting depictions of blindness in French fiction are those which call into question and ultimately undermine the prevailing myths and stereotypes of blindness which dominate Western thought.
