Join us for the launch of Les volontaires: roman familial de la Révolution française (Le Seuil) by Thomas Dodman (2023-24 Fellow), followed by a panel discussion with Adila Bennedjaï-Zou (current Fellow).

Thomas Dodman is a Franco-British historian and an associate professor of French at Columbia University. His research and teaching explore forms and experiences of social transformation in the modern era, particularly during times of war and revolution, viewed through the lenses of emotion and medicine. He is the author of What Nostalgia Was: War, Empire, and the Time of a Deadly Emotion (Chicago, 2018), and co-editor of Une histoire de la guerre, du XIXe siècle à nos jours (Seuil, 2018). He also co-edits the journal Sensibilités: histoire, critique & sciences sociales (Anamosa) and directs the History and Literature MA program at Columbia’s Global Center in Paris.

Adila Bennedjaï-Zou is an author and sound artist. A radio producer at France Culture since 2015, where she frequently contributes to “Les pieds sur terre” and “LSD La Série Documentaire,” her work revolves around the idea of collective autobiography, articulating testimonies, archives, and first-person accounts. Based on the idea that private life is imbued with political stakes, she seeks to capture the places where the intimate and the collective meet. She was a fellow at the Villa Médicis in Rome in 2020-21.
