Postures Féminines Dans L’Oeuvre De Calixthe Beyala, Carmen Husti-Laboye
Postures Féminines Dans L’Oeuvre De Calixthe Beyala, Carmen Husti-Laboye
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
The aim of this paper is to analyze, through the example of the feminist positions proposed by Calixthe Beyala in the novels she wrote between 1987 and 2007, the change of the novelist’s ideological and artistic perspective. It emphasizes the progressive loss of critical voice to the advantage of a new voice wishing to understand itself as individuality in its world. This study reveals the novelist’s contribution to the construction of a new position of the individual in the context of French social and cultural life.
Dévirilisation De Personnages Et Humanisme Chez Calixthe Beyala, A. Mia Elise Adjoumani
Dévirilisation De Personnages Et Humanisme Chez Calixthe Beyala, A. Mia Elise Adjoumani
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
This article shows how Beyala questions the traditional status of the male figure by the emphasis of an emasculate male type. This last one does not illustrate the feminists ideals attributed to the author. He is rather placed in the center of humanists questions relegated into the background by his counterparts for the profit of their “androcentriques” concerns. Beyala so creates a man symbolically close to the androgyne who reveals her inhalation to a world managed in a egalitarian way by the man and the woman because of the human nature of the stakes to be defended.
De Stock À Albin Michel : Beyala Et L’Édition, Bernard De Meyer
De Stock À Albin Michel : Beyala Et L’Édition, Bernard De Meyer
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
Beyala has remained faithful to the publisher Albin Michel for her fictional work since the publication of Le petit prince de Belleville in 1992, but her four fi rst novels had three different publishers. A study of her relationship with the publishing world during this period shows her desire for recognition on the Parisian literary scene, which was ready to take up the challenge by publishing the novel of an unknown African woman writer. A careful analysis of paratextual elements, in particular the titrology, and of the contents of the novels reveals that Calixthe Beyala enters into a direct conversation …
Féminitude Et Négritude : Discours De Genre Et Discours Culturel Dans L’Oeuvre De Calixthe Beyala, Christina Angelfors
Féminitude Et Négritude : Discours De Genre Et Discours Culturel Dans L’Oeuvre De Calixthe Beyala, Christina Angelfors
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
This article examines how Calixthe Beyala, by using two key concepts, féminitude and négritude, engages in a dialogue with different European or Occidental feminist movements on the one side and the myths and traditions of the African continent on the other side. She addresses, one could say, Simone de Beauvoir’s question, “What is a women?”, as well as the question asked by the négritude writers, “What is a negro?”. The analysis of the opposition between the universal and the particular will show the complexity of the question of identity in Calixthe Beyala’s work.
Références Surréalistes Dans L’Œuvre Théâtrale De Georges Schéhadé, Georges Khoriaty
Références Surréalistes Dans L’Œuvre Théâtrale De Georges Schéhadé, Georges Khoriaty
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
Owing to Georges Schéhadé’s investment of powers of dreams which lead to existence and generate thoughts out of any preset direction, Georges Schéhadé’s theatre can be considered very close to surrealism. These powers of dreams can rediscover the world, give access to another reality and resolve fundamental life questions. In addition, Georges Schéhadé’s theatre and surrealism are similar in resorting to mysterious practices, occult research and the world of the “marvellous” which emanates from the world of dreams. This latter world consists of extraordinary random events or premonitions, visions, perceptions and sensations bringing about confusion of identities and a strange …
Images De Femmes: Une H/Histoire De La France En Algérie À Travers Les Carnets D’Orient De Jacques Ferrandez, Carla Calargé
Images De Femmes: Une H/Histoire De La France En Algérie À Travers Les Carnets D’Orient De Jacques Ferrandez, Carla Calargé
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
My article analyses the representation of women in the Carnets d’Orient, a graphic novel series that tells the (hi)story of Algeria since its colonial conquest by the French army until its independence in 1962. I argue that the representation of women in the series varies not only according to the periods represented in the work, but also and more importantly according to the evolution that took place in the author himself while working on the series. the essay is organized in three parts according to three historical periods. The first period is that of the colonial conquest of Algeria (1830-1872) …
Angoisse, Misanthropie Et Violences Policières Chez San-Antonio, Pierre Verdaguer
Angoisse, Misanthropie Et Violences Policières Chez San-Antonio, Pierre Verdaguer
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Mémoire Du Duel Dans À La Recherche Du Temps Perdu, Yan Hamel
Mémoire Du Duel Dans À La Recherche Du Temps Perdu, Yan Hamel
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
This paper analyses the duel as a central motive in Marcel Proust’s novel À la recherche du temps perdu. In the novels cycle, it appears that the occasions the men have to fight or to watch a duel help to understand why that violent practice increased during the last decade before the second World War. The practice seems to be monstrous morally and socially.

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
This paper analyses the novel Saint-Germain ou la négociation, which appears to hide a controversial discourse under a classic form. a special attention is given to the last chapter to show how this end modifies the novel’s reception. Finally, it is the whole neoclassic aesthetics that seems to be violate.
Je E(S)T L’Autre, Nadia Duchêne
Je E(S)T L’Autre, Nadia Duchêne
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
Immigration and otherness represent core concerns in contemporary society and, as such, give rise to debate and discussion in many disciplines. the question of otherness also arises as a recurrent and key subject in the field of literature. Tahar Ben Jelloun’s novel Partir is replete with the ambivalence of otherness: attraction/aversion; difference/similarity; lack/exile; native/foreigner; close/distant; normal/deviant and as such provides a laboratory where the expression of otherness in discourse can be dissected. We will examine the perception and the issue of otherness in the novel as well as the strength of its representations.

Roland Brival Et Le Métissage:Un Nouvel Humanisme, Yolande Aline Helm

Scénographie Du Domaine Maudit De Cung Giu Nguyên, Van Quang Pham
Scénographie Du Domaine Maudit De Cung Giu Nguyên, Van Quang Pham
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
Cung Giu Nguyên is known as one of the most important francophone writers in Vietnam, especially with novels such as Le fils de la baleine, Le domaine maudit and Le boujoum. Each of these works hides behind the mythical world of writing the author’s meditations on the hectic, chaotic and absurd realities. Le domaine maudit is the result of these reflections. It deals mainly with misfortune suffered by the individual, family and society. The purpose of this paper is to reconstruct the enunciation of the narrative.
