Author Biography

  • Frédéric Guignard, Université de Lausanne

    Frédéric Guignard is a PhD student in French literature at the University of Lausanne, where he is conducting a doctoral thesis on francophone science fiction. He seeks to describe gender poetics in feminist utopias, starting with Le Guin, Wittig and D'Eaubonne, and circumscribe the resumption of this conjecture genrée. He is also interested in the paradoxical status of masculinity in contemporary novels, trying to pinpoint how ideologies shape the narrative.
