Book Description
Professor Bishop's book challenges the conventional wisdom that sees Alfred de Musset solely as the writer of intensely personal lyric poetry. By closely studying Musset's major poetic works and his numerous reflections on the art of poetry, Bishop reveals a poet whose work cannot be reduced to a sentimental cri de coeur and whose poetics cannot be reduced to an esthetique du sentiment. Musset is shown to be a poet of many styles and many genres, including a substantial poetry of ideas. The book also offers closely reasoned discussions of subjects rarely discussed in French letters: romantic irony, the greater Romantic lyric, musicality and euphony."

Book Description
This volume analyzes major French plays of the 1830s, focusing on their theatricality, and on the ways in which they expose the workings of the theater rather than conceal them. Through an examination of performance within these plays, the study posits that the stage is a privileged site of demonstration, a literal "proving ground" that lends a physical reality to abstract values announced in the text and shared or questioned by the audience. Negotiating between the literary study of drama and performance theory, this work breaks new ground in nineteenth-century theater scholarship while proposing a fresh direction in the study of text and performance. The Limits of Performance challenges conventional wisdom, offering a novel take on the mal du siècle, that thematic hardy perennial of French Romanticism and the nineteenth century in general, combined with eminently readable and, therefore, compelling analysis of plays - a thought-provoking addition to work in the field (Glyn Hambrook, Modern and Contemporary France, November 2008).
