It provides a structured and coherent analysis of the economics and politics behind popular culture, as well as a discussion of its social and cultural significance. Bringing together an international team of experts in French Studies, the book focuses on the period 1945-2000, and supports its discussion with a range of pedagogic tools such as a series of case studies, topics for discussion and further study, and an annotated reading list. | + | |

| - | From the erotic writing lemma: | ||
| - | :"[[Deforges]] is not the only specialist publisher whose name springs to mind in the context of literary erotica. Éditeurs in this field include [[Éric Losfeld]], a Surrealist who published erotic works clandestinely (`sous le manteau') and officially; [[Claude Tchou]], whose [[Circle du Livre Précieux]] series included erotic `classics' and new texts; and [[Jean-Jacques Pauvert]], whose efforts to bring out new editions of the works of Sade encountered legal obstacles in the 1950s. Yet other publishers specializing in the erotico-literary domain are are [[Christian Bourgois]], [[La Jeune Parque]], [[Spengler]], and [[Zulma]]. As [[Brécourt-Villars]] indicates, after 1964 mainstream maisons d'édition such as Gallimard also began to publish erotic fiction (Brécourt-Villars 1985). | ||
