Proust's morals

For the second year running, the lecture focused on Proust's work, but, after "Proust: Memory of Literature" in 2006-2007, on a new and completely different subject, "Proust's Morals", a risky subject from both sides: on the moral side, as morality has long been considered offside in literary studies, and on the Proust side, as Proust has long been considered immoral or amoral by critics. A double justification was therefore necessary.
