Ewelina Pepiak analyses how gender and ethnicity are represented in seven contemporary French comedies (2008-2018) including mixed-race couples, focusing on a trope of \u003ci\u003emétissage\u003c\/i\u003e (biological and cultural mixing) and white femininity. As analyses of ethnic and gender representations remain scarce due to the slow emergence of postcolonial studies in France, this study adds significant insights to the postcolonial debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEwelina Pepiak, born in 1980, completed her doctorate at the Romance studies institute at the Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen and was a member of International PhD Programme Literary and Cultural Studies.
