Charlotte Ribeyro
A former student at the École normale supérieure Fontenay-Saint-Cloud, Charlotte Ribeyrol has been Maître de Conférences in 19th-century British literature at the Université Paris-Sorbonne since 2009, where she also teaches the history of English art. Her research focuses on the Hellenism of Victorian poets and painters, particularly Algernon Charles Swinburne. She has published extensively on this poet to mark the centenary of his death in Tomb for Swinburne (Aden, 2010), A.C. Swinburne and the Singing Word (Ashgate, 2010) and Swinburne: Unofficial Laureate (Manchester University Press, 2013). In her book Étrangeté, passion, couleur : L'hellénisme de Swinburne, Pater et Symonds (1865-1880) , just published by Presses Universitaires de Grenoble (ELLUG, 2013), she focuses on the central role played by the polychromy of Greek art in the shift in ideological and aesthetic discourse on antiquity at the end of the 19th century.
