Advanced French Conversation: L’ exception amoureuse — Hubris and French Passions

Specialty & Cultural Classes

In France, love is often seen as more than a feeling — it is a force that challenges rules, society, and even reason. Designed for advanced learners (B2–C1), this course explores the idea of hubris — the excess that drives lovers to break boundaries. Through the study of ten famous couples, students will discover how the French language expresses the many shades of passion, from scandal and seduction to freedom and existential partnership. We will read authentic love letters, excerpts from libertine literature, and explore films and music that sparked debate. More than a language class, this course offers a deeper understanding of why passion and freedom are central to French culture.
