La Provence selon Jean Giono: Ollivier Errecade (in French)
Ollivier Errecade, a novelist and literature teacher who also teaches for the Wellesley-in-Aix program, lectures in French on Jean Giono's Provence, treated not as regional backdrop but as a character in his work. Errecade traces how Giono's view of that land shifted across the Second World War, from an all-powerful Nature at the heart of human destiny to a growing attention to the human soul.
