Episode Synopsis

While English already boasts the word author, it has also borrowed the French term auteur, a word that evokes a certain artist-driven film genre. Here to explore what that means about the French penchant for near-deification of artists is Dr. Gemma King, a professor at the Australia National University specializing in French and cinema.

Famously defended by armed "immortals" of the Académie Française (no, we're not making this up) the French language is filled with clues that show interested outsiders what, exactly, makes the French tick. Each episode, listen in as Emily Monaco and an expert take a deep dive into a word that helps us gain a keener understanding of the French.
