Happiness (and the question of how to define, measure and facilitate it) has become a key theme in political, economic and social discourses in recent decades in France and elsewhere, yet research on happiness in French culture and film has been limited. Given that happiness is clearly gendered, this book looks critically at the ways in which contemporary French women’s writing and film give voice to and critique conceptions of happiness. Analysing French and francophone women’s writing (including Nina Bouraoui, Hélène Cixous, Annie Ernaux, Camille Laurens, Leïla Slimani, Delphine de Vigan) and film (including Claire Denis, Céline Sciamma and Agnès Varda), I focus on five main areas: images of happiness in consumer and Internet culture; happiness and intimacy in the family and the home; queering happiness; migrated happiness, and happiness and ageing. Whilst the ‘happiness turn’ is problematic, the desire for happiness, however fraught, matters and I show how representations of happiness in contemporary French women’s writing and film offer alternative conceptions of happiness that enable us to rethink happiness in more critical, diverse and inclusive terms.

Written in an accessible and engaging way, each book takes you through the life and influences of one great thinker, before taking a deep dive into three of their key theories in plain English. Smart thinking made easy One of the greatest philosophers of all time, Immanuel Kant changed the course of thinking about ourselves and our world. His works cover a wide reach of thought, although he is perhaps best known for his metaphysics and epistemology. Who the hell is Immanuel Kant? begins by finding out who this brilliant man really was as a person and how the people and events in his life shaped his thought, before taking a deep dive into three of his most important ideas. Focusing on his theories of knowledge, beauty and the categorical imperative, this book explains the notoriously difficult ideas of Kant in an accessible, engaging and jargon-free way.
