Travel and tourism have long shaped cultural production in French, inspiring writers, artists, and travelers alike to traverse the globe and imagine the world beyond one's doorstep. This course invites students on a journey across the francophone world as we revisit attractions from Paris to the Moon. Through the exploration of various media from short stories and films to songs and street art, we will embark on imaginary expeditions, exotic excursions, spiritual pilgrimages, and touristic treks. These quests will offer us an opportunity to deepen and enrich our cultural expression in the language.
