1992

Van Den Abbeele authored Travel as Metaphor: From Montaigne to Rousseau in 1992, and focused on detailed readings of Montaigne, Descartes, Montesquieu, and Rousseau, while reexamining the impact of travel in early modern French philosophy. Lisa Neal is of the view that the book "goes beyond a mere illustration of the commonplace of travel as a metaphor for critical thought in order to investigate the extent to which the metaphor of travel might actually limit thought." Van Den Abbeele's book, "French Civilization and Its Discontents: Nationalism, Colonialism, Race," co-authored and co-edited with Tyler Stovall, is described as a work that offers a focused account on "the principal trends of French colonial ideology, contemporary French thoughts and politics, and French studies as an academic filed." According to Madeleine Dobie, the book is a "valuable contribution to the ongoing effort to strongly connect the influential French concepts of civilization, universality, citizenship, nationhood and the history of French colonial expansion." Gary Wilder also praises the book while stating that the broad thematic, geographic and interdisciplinary reach of the work "not only attracts scholars of French colonialism" but also appeals those concerned more generally with colonial legacies and the postcolonial condition.'
