Welcome to my website. I am a professor at the Université libre de Bruxelles, Faculty of Letters, Translation and Communication, and a member of iiTSE and of the Philixte Research Center, of which I am the director since September 2022.
I am also responsible of the Philology volume of the centenary Belgian journal RBPH.
Previously, I was a Research Associate with the FNRS. An article about my training course and research interests was published in the FNRSNews 102, on page 31.
The common denominator of my past and current research is the literary writings of events, i.e.: literary transcriptions of historical events and situations (WWII, Belgian colonization) as well as transformations, through the process of writing, of seemingly insignificant phenomena into events.
Fields of research: 20th and 21st-century Literature (novel and poetry) in French
Disciplines: Poetics, Stylistics, Hermeneutics, Postcolonial and Decolonial studies, Literature and History.
