About the Journal

Focus and Scope

Relief - Revue électronique de littérature française is an international peer reviewed journal dedicated francophone literature and culture from the Middle Ages to the present day. The issues are generally thematic in scope, but issues may also include a 'Varia' section as well as book reviews. Relief aims to critically address contemporary issues in literature, both in the realm of creative work and theoretical reflection, as well as the riches of the past and their later reception. We are particularly open to transcultural perspectives and pay special attention to supposedly marginal authors and genres, as well as works in need of rediscovery. Relief is published twice a year.
