description: The thirteen essays in this volume are dedicated to Professor Dennis Ager on his retirement. Their range is eloquent testimony to the catholicity and openness of Professor Ager's approach to what was originally called "Area Studies". They celebrate the diversity over which he presided as head of the French department and head of the faculty of Modern Language's at Aston University in the period 1971-1998.
