Roxane Debuisson Collection Fellowship

Dr. Chloe Summers Edmondson specializes in the literature and history of early modern France. She holds the position of Acting Assistant Professor of French at Stanford University. She earned a Ph.D. in 2020 in the department of French and Italian at Stanford University. As the France-Stanford Center Fellow for the Roxane Debuisson Collection on Paris History, she is currently developing a new project on the history of the Palais Royal from the ancien régime through the early nineteenth century. This research is at the intersection of cultural history, geocriticism, and gender and sexuality studies. Her archival work with the Roxane Debuisson Collection will enable her to gain access to a multitude of materials related to the history of the Palais Royal, which will be critical at this early stage of the project.
