The first two numbers of the Australian Journal of French Studies (AJFS) (Vol. XLIV, No. 1, 2007 and Vol. XLIV, No. 2, 2007, edited by Brian Nelson and Françoise Grauby, $25 pb, 83 pp and 99 pp) for 2007 reflect a long-standing policy of mixing miscellaneous collections of essays with numbers focused on a specific theme. In this instance, No. 1 offers six pieces on a variety of subjects, which provide a good illustration of the scope and complexity of what French studies mean today. Subjects covered include the traditional high-literary genres of poetry, theatre and novel, but also detective fiction and cinema. And the field reaches into the cultures of French-language communities beyond France, as in Etienne Beaulieu’s study of the iconic Canadian film-maker Pierre Perrault.
