Abstract
This article presents a process-oriented instructional unit for advanced-level French instruction that spirals language and content by developing students' skills in literary and stylistic analysis, reading, and writing. Excerpts from Raymond Queneau's Exercices de style serve as the literary content for the instructional unit. The goals are to familiarize students with Queneau and the OuLiPo literary movement; to illustrate that stylistic features may be the primary object and content of a literary work; to critically analyze and compare the stylistic features of texts; and to apply stylistic knowledge to writing.
