  • More about Revisiting HIV/AIDS in French Culture: Raw Matters

This edited collection explores the impact of the AIDS crisis on French culture, highlighting vulnerability, exposure, risk, citizenship, and trauma. It analyzes HIV/AIDS productions from the 1980s to today, providing insights into the ongoing HIV and SARS-CoV-2 pandemics and offering solutions for discussion and mitigation.

Format: Hardback
Length: 180 pages
Publication date: 15 April 2022
Publisher: Lexington Books


This edited collection brings together scholarship from established and emerging scholars in HIV/AIDS studies, French studies, Visual Arts, and Dance. As French writers and artists from the past five to ten years have been revisiting the AIDS crisis and its attendant cultural amnesia, their work has brought about the necessity of foregrounding vulnerability, exposure, risk, citizenship, and trauma when considering disease. By way of probing "rawness" and its varying iterations, this volume gathers analyses of HIV/AIDS productions from the 1980s to today in the service of excavating lessons learned by those living in proximity to disease. These lessons provide important tools to understand and discuss both the ongoing HIV and SARS-CoV-2 pandemics. The volume thus highlights the specificities of the former while offering solutions on how to discuss and mitigate the latter.
