He holds an aggregation of modern letters (1999) and a doctorate of letters (2004).

From 2005 to 2012, he was maître de conférences in general and comparative literature at the University of Rennes 2 – Upper Brittany. In 2011, he was elected as a junior member of the Institut universitaire de France on a project devoted to the conceptions and representations of music through the literature and history of European ideas. Since 2012, he is a professor of general and comparative literature at Rennes 2. His research focuses on the relationship between literature, the arts (especially music, but also cinema), and the history of ideas.
