Sarah Juliette Sasson
received her Ph.D. in French and Comparative Literature from Columbia in 2000 after studying law at the University of Paris I, and literature at Paris VII and the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales. She taught at Barnard and at Sarah Lawrence College before joining the Columbia faculty in 2004. She specializes in 19th-century fiction, and has published articles on intercultural exchanges between France and Germany, as well as on Balzac. More recently, she participated in a collaborative research project with Université de Clermont-Ferrand that led to a book entitled Le Livre de l'hospitalité: accueil de l'étranger dans l'histoire et les cultures (Paris: Bayard, 2004). She is currently working on a book on the relationship between legal narrative and literature.
