With a title derived literally from the explorations of the French in the Pacific and metaphorically from classroom encounters with another culture—both of which form important subsections to the volume—Explorations and Encounters in Frenchactively seeks to unite those fields of enquiry sometimes seen as separate, namely, culture and language.

The essays selected for inclusion inExplorations and Encounters in Frenchbring together many of the current research strands in French Studies today, tapping into current pedagogical trends, analysing contemporary events in France, examining the Franco-Ӱֱn past, while reviewing teaching practice and the culture of teaching.

Collectively, the essays reflect the common engagement with language, culture and society that characterizes the community of French teachers and scholars in Ӱֱ and abroad.
