I suppose you're right: SCANDAL AT THE SORBONNE: FRENCH PROFESSOR ADMITS HE LOVES AMERICA, HATES JERRY LEWIS By William Grim PARIS -- All the Gitane-smoking intellectuals and beret-wearing Bolsheviks of the Left Bank are talking about the controversy that has erupted in the City of Light over recent pro-American statements made by Jean-Paul Voitdire, Professor of Comparative Literature at the Sorbonne, during a lecture in a doctoral seminar he was teaching entitled "Strategies Sexuelle dans la nouvelles Americain." During a particularly poignant deconstruction of phallic imagery in William Faulkner's Light in August -- according to students who attended the seminar -- Professor Voitdire is alleged to have said that "one page of Faulkner is worth all that turgid crap by Voltaire and Victor Hugo, and don't get me started on Proust. Jesus, 200 pages just about eating a friggin' cookie. Give me a break. No, give me Sanctuary. Faulkner rules!!!!" iconoclast.ca
