These novels represent national education as a crucial aspect of perceived shortcomings and failures of the French Republican system, even while establishing the novel as its own form of national education. In the current scholarship on these two authors, there has\u00a0been little written on\u00a0the connection between the narrative strategies and representations of students and teachers within the education system. During the course of writing this thesis, I became most intrigued by what I perceive as\u00a0the influence of journalistic narrative strategies in each text. To date, there has\u00a0been very little literature on this narrative influence in\u00a0these novels, despite the fact that both authors were prolific journalists and both fictionalized true events in order to engage with the Republican system and its perceived failures.<\/p>\n<p>I am continuing to research\u00a0the influence that journalism and widespread literacy had on the novel. In so doing, my research has led me toward a discursive analysis of the literary and journalistic representations of female criminals between 1880-1910. Authors of interest include Emile Gaboriau, Simon Boub\u00e9e, Marcelle Tinayre, Emile Zola and Maurice Leblanc. While there has been extensive studies of crime in fiction in the nineteenth century, I am interested in shifting the literary analysis toward a dialogue between the press and popular fiction of the time period, especially in regards to female criminals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.vanderbilt.edu\/t2-my\/my-prd\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2200\/2016\/10\/2020-Cara-Bailey-CV.pdf\">Curriculum Vitae<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research Statement As part of my Master&#8217;s thesis, I studied the\u00a0representation of the national education system in France during the Third Republic.\u00a0In particular, I studied the education system as represented in the novel\u00a0V\u00e9rit\u00e9 by Emile Zola and\u00a0Les D\u00e9racin\u00e9s by Maurice Barr\u00e8s.
