Research Focus: Dolbec’s scholarship employs narratological frameworks to dissect descriptive mechanisms in Francophone Canadian literature, progressively incorporating Holocaust narratives and migrant writing. Her work reveals how textual description functions as resistance in survivor accounts and structures meaning in classical works by authors like Gabrielle Roy. This research bridges literary theory with historical trauma studies through meticulous discourse analysis.
Publication Trends: Her 2005-2021 publications demonstrate consistent evolution from foundational studies of Quebec authors toward contemporary Holocaust narratives. Key thematic threads include ekphrasis in road novels, village depictions in Roy’s oeuvre, and resistance strategies in migrant writing—showcasing interdisciplinary reach across Canadian literature, postcolonial studies, and trauma theory.
