Biographie et les sciences sociales: l'exemple de Claude Lévi-Strauss

A lecture by Emmanuelle Loyer, Professor at Institut des sciences politiques, Paris

10/17/2018
4:30 pm – 5:30 pm
Thornton 105
Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Lectures & Seminars

Biography, a genre which has long been considered illegitimate as historiography, can be considered today as a laboratory for the writing of the social sciences, including, paradoxically, a way of understanding the social sciences themselves.  Drawing on her recently published, critically acclaimed biography of Claude Lévi-Strauss, Emmanuelle Loyer discusses Lévi-Strauss through the double lenses of biography and the social sciences.
