Section Title:
Choix Goncourt US 2025
Section Info:
“Contemporary Literature in French: Choix Goncourt US 2025” Come and decide who will be the next winner of the Choix Goncourt US! The Prix Goncourt is one of the most prestigious francophone literary prizes, awarded each year since 1903 by the ten members of the Académie Goncourt in Paris. With the Choix Goncourt, students on campuses across the globe have the opportunity to participate in this competition. This year, our university was selected to be one of ten participating institutions across the US. This is a unique opportunity to practice your analytic and interpretive skills in a collaborative experiential context where you will be a direct contributor to the literary scene – and to the making of francophone culture. In class, we will read the four nominated novels, discuss the role of literary prizes and cultural diplomacy in the creation of cultural value, reflect on best practices as a selection committee, and choose our winner. We will then elect a delegate who will travel to New York City in April to defend our choice, deliberate with the delegates of the other nine participating universities, and vote on the next “Choix Goncourt US”.
