Sommario/riassunto

At a time when higher education institutions in the United States are the subject of increased media scrutiny and nearly continuous loss of funding by resource-strapped state legislatures, a greater understanding of higher education’s bulwark resource—mid-career research and teaching faculty—is more important than ever. Faculty at mid-career comprise the largest segment of academia. For some, this is a time of significant productivity and creativity, yet for others, it is a time of disillusionment and stagnation. Revealing impediments and pathways to faculty job satisfaction and productivity will strengthen higher education institutions by protecting, fostering, and maintaining this vital workforce. In this collection we will explore the lives of mid-career faculty as our authors uncover the complexities in this stage of professional life and discuss support systems for the transition into this period of faculties’ academic careers. Mid-Career Faculty: Trends, Barriers, and Possibilities is designed for faculty leaders, administration, policymakers, and anyone concerned with the future of higher education. This text offers an examination into an often overlooked period of academic life, that of post-tenure mid-career faculty. Therefore, the aim of this text is to deepen our understanding of the lives of mid-career faculty, to identify barriers that impede job advancement and satisfaction, and to offer suggestions for changes to current policy and practice in higher education.

Sommario/riassunto

Dans une de ses Satires (III, 30), le poète latin Perse affirme la possibilité de la connaissance de soi et de l’autre, de manière intime : te intus et in cute noui, « je te connais de l’intérieur et sous la peau ». Ce vers a été rendu célèbre par sa mise en exergue au livre I des Confessions de Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Pourtant, cette affirmation ne va pas de soi. L’intime est un concept marginal, imprécis, flou, qui subsume nombre de faits psychologiques, sociaux et littéraires, difficiles à cerner de manière précise et rigoureuse. S’il est une impulsion essentielle de toute créativité, c’est surtout dans la littérature que la « pulsion vers l’intime » se déploie le plus largement. Après un premier volume consacré aux Espaces de l’intime, ce second volume d’une série L’intime de l’Antiquité à nos jours aborde la question, inépuisable, des « Littératures intimes », selon l’expression de Sébastien Hubier. Peut-on dire, représenter, écrire ou partager l’intime ? La difficulté est double : dire ou écrire l’intime, c’est perdre la qualité d’intime ; mais le taire, c’est se condamner à ne pas le connaître, à ne pas le faire connaître. L’ouvrage, en croisant les regards de chercheurs spécialistes de psychanalyse, de littérature ou d’histoire, offre un ample panorama de la diversité et de la richesse extraordinaires des écritures à la première personne, à travers un parcours chronologique qui fait voyager le lecteur de l’Antiquité à nos jours à travers des correspondances, des mémoires, des autobiographies, des écrits du « for privé », des poèmes ou des récits en prose.
