Originally published in 2000, this book highlights the interst Sedaine's life and work is now, belatedly, provoking in many scholarly disciplines. If Sedaine speaks today to literary history, theatre history and opera studies, it is because he possessed a multivalent vision, one which accounts for both his past neglect and is present rediscovery. Like many others, he believed that the established, 'official' genres needed to be reformed; unlike many, he made it his business to transform the actual language and operation of the theatre arts he practised. Until late eighteenth-century opera and drama in France become better understood, Sedaine's immense importance for the development of Romantic opera and theatre risks remaining generally concealed; to reveal something of this importance is one main reason for publishing the present volume.This book includes chapters on Sedaine and the question of genre, the representation of the female in the dramas of Sedaine, and the words, gestures and other signs in the era of Sedaine.

Le Philosophe sans le savoir by Michel-Jean Sedaine

Le Philosophe sans le savoir by Michel-Jean Sedaine

MODERN HUMANITIES RESEARCH ASSOCIATION
2023

In May 1760 the Com die-Fran aise performed a play by Charles Palissot de Montenoy entitled Les Philosophes (The Philosophes), an attack on the group of writers known by that name. In the audience was Michel-Jean Sedaine, who, although not a member of the group himself, was sufficiently shocked by this attack on serious authors and thinkers to decide that he should write a reply to Palissot's work. At least in part because the use of the controversial subject of duelling on which the plot is centred caused problems with the censors, Le Philosophe sans le savoir did not reach the stage until 1765, but, when it was at last performed, it proved to be a great success. Although Sedaine usually wrote libretti for operas-comiques, for his new play he chose a genre pioneered by Diderot, one of the writers attacked in Les Philosophes, the drame. Sedaine's play has been generally recognized as the masterpiece of this short-lived genre. As well as looking at the play itself, the introduction to this translation examines its place in the literary controversy sparked by Palissot's play, and the origins and development of the drame.

Finalist, Governor General's Literary Award in the Translation Category Longlist, 2025 Dublin Literary Award A Quebec bestseller based on the life of Michel Jean’s great-grandmother that delivers an empathetic portrait of drastic change in an Innu community. Kukum recounts the story of Almanda Siméon, an orphan raised by her aunt and uncle, who falls in love with a young Innu man despite their cultural differences and goes on to share her life with the Pekuakami Innu community. They accept her as one of their own: Almanda learns their language, how to live a nomadic existence, and begins to break down the barriers imposed on Indigenous women. Unfolding over the course of a century, the novel details the end of traditional ways of life for the Innu, as Almanda and her family face the loss of their land and confinement to reserves, and the enduring violence of residential schools. Kukum intimately expresses the importance of Innu ancestral values and the need for freedom nomadic peoples feel to this day.

Exiled from his community after serving time for his father’s murder, a young Innu man finds himself adrift on the streets of Montreal. Released from prison after ten years spent behind bars for the murder of his violent, alcoholic father, Elie Mestenapeo finds himself out in the world again, but alone. Banished for life from his community, Nutashkuan, he heads south to Montreal, where he becomes part of a new community—Cree, Nakota, Inuit, Innu, Mohawk and Atikamekw come together in Cabot Square. There, Elie meets Mary and Tracy, Inuuk twin sisters who take him under their wing; Jimmy, a Nakota man who hands out hot meals to those the city has forgotten; and Mafia Doc, an aging, self-proclaimed nurse who refuses to abandon his tent even as winter’s brutal cold descends. In this deeply compassionate novel, Michel Jean gives voice to those living on society’s margins. With tenderness and unflinching honesty, he reveals lives scarred by violence and addiction but also sustained by resilience, kinship, and the faint, persistent light of hope.
