Center for research in foreign cultures, languages and literature (CECILLE )

Research unit - ULR 4074

Description

CECILLE is a pluri-, trans- and interdisciplinary unit that brings together researchers specializing in many scientific fields (literature, humanities, languages, translation, civilization, sociology, media studies, etc.) and working in a wide variety of linguistic areas (English, German, Spanish, Russian, Polish, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Scandinavian, Chinese, etc.). Our research activities are based on cross-cultural, literary, historical, sociological, geopolitical, translational, and media approaches. Our team's work is based on an in-depth dialogue between social sciences and the arts, with the aim of breaking down disciplinary and national barriers in order to critically analyze past and/or current cultural and social changes.
