Françoise Kral is Professor of English and Postcolonial Studies at the Université de Caen Basse-Normandie, France. Her publications include Critical Identities in Contemporary Anglophone Diasporic Literature (2009), Re-presenting Otherness: Mapping the Colonial 'Self'/Mapping the Indigenous 'Other' in the Literatures of Australia and New Zealand (ed, 2004) and Architecture and Philosophy: New Perspectives on the Work of Arakawa and Gins (co-edited with Jean-Jacques Lecercle, 2011).
Social Invisibility and Diasporas in Anglophone Literature and Culture is a transdisciplinary study of social invisibility and diasporas which theorizes the differential in/visibility of diasporas through the prism of cultural productions (literature and the visual arts, including media studies) by both established artists and emerging ones.
