Un soir de Noel, rentrant du reveillon, l’ecrivain Edouard Louis est aborde par Riahd B (alias Reda), jeune Kabyle sans papiers. Cette banale rencontre amoureuse tourne au drame lorsqu’a la fin de la nuit, accuse d’avoir vole le portable de Louis, le jeune Kabyle cogne, viole, essaie d’etrangler l’ecrivain et le menace d’un revolver. L’originalite d’Histoire de la violence, dont le titre generique est emprunte au film de David Cronenberg et au livre de Michel Foucault, est de vouloir transpos...

When it comes to China and Africa, one thinks spontaneously of immensity versus mosaic, but one can also be fascinated by the rooting in the past. To create La legende des siècles, a French epic, Victor Hugo allowed himself to be carried by "history listened through the gates of legend", according to his own words. Imagine what would be the writing of The legend of the millennia for China and Africa, impressive asteroids launched in the sky of time? Thousand eyes scrutinize with their camera the interactions between the people of the great country and those of the African …

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
This article analyzes the importance of the film industry in West Africa by posing the problem of the closure of cinemas in recent decades in three countries: Senegal, Mali and Burkina Faso. The disappearance of movie theatres jeopardizes reception and drives the use of the Internet and television as broadcasting outlets for movies. This issue occupies little space in film criticism that privileges, according to Claude Forest, the "creative and cultural aspects" and therefore the aesthetics of African film.

La Question Du Cinéma Populaire En Afrique Du Nord, Michel Serceau
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
The different North African cinemas, which appeared after the independences and were the work of film directors trained in Europe, were, as a principle, an art-house cinema at odds with the classical cinema type. Presented at festivals very often, they were not really embraced by the national audiences, who were mainly consumers of popular productions, either western or Egyptian. But the production of genre films (especially comedies) which were very rare until the 1990s is increasing today, at least in Morocco. Their arrival at the top of the Moroccan box-office where they compete with the American blockbusters prove that the …

Esthétique Écologique Et Hybridité Dans Les Génériques De Début Des Feuilletons Télévisés Camerounais, -- Ngetcham, Leslie Goufo Zemmo
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
The first television pictures appeared in Cameroon thirty years ago, proposing series for public consumption. These imported products later on suffered a singular competition from local artists, whose works were mostly broadcast on private channels, besides what was proposed by the single public media of Cameroon Television (CW). In this article, we intend to carry an ecocritical analysis on the aesthetic aspects of ten credit titles; we also bring out the formal process of producing movies; this is how we can identify hybridity through costumes, languages and scenery because they go beyond the local environment which they reveal to present …

Cinéma Ambulant Et Éducation: Télé Yaka Et Cinomade, Vincent Bouchard
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
Cinomade is an association that tries to sensitize the populations about the HIV pandemic in Burkina Faso. Télé Vaka, literally the "Neighborhood Television" in more language, was an itinerant local television around Koudougou in Burkina Faso. By comparing the reception of screenings organized in rural areas by Télé Vaka and Cinomade, this article describes a popular form of consumption of audio-visual images in West Africa. By causing the debate inside the communities using a heterogeneous device connecting endogenous (the chief's words, those of the elders, etc.) and exogenous (video projection and public testimony), ways of communication, this experiment modifies our …

Les Modes De Réception Des Films Populaires Africains Au Brésil: Entre Usage Socioculturel Et « Plaisir Du Texte », Mahomed Bamba
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
In this article, I discuss the uses and the reception of African films (popular films and films d'auteur) in Brazil, especially in some Mostras. I examine, among other issues, the role of these mini-festivals in the establishment of what we can call a popular African cinema experience in a community. These contexts of reception produce in the audience a level of expectation, but also some constraints that impact the films' reading and interpretation.

Du Folklore Au Cinéma: La Transformation D'Un Classique De La Littérature Orale, Désiré Nyela
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
Michel Ocelot's film Kirikou et la sorcière became a great success as soon as it hit the screens in 1998. It even inspired a sequel, Kirikou et les betes sauvages, whose release in 2005 earned the figure of the small African boy a permanent place in a wider Francophone imaginary. Originating in a traditional tale, Kirikou et la sorcière is an adaptation and, as such, the result of a transformation. Indeed, it is the result of a two-fold transformation involving a transition from the oral to the written, on one hand, and from the written to the visual, on …

Bending Gender In French Literature,

Bending Gender In French Literature, Jacey Flatte
LSU Master's Theses
This paper looks at French literature that defies binary and heteronormative gender roles and identities. The literature spans from the seventeenth- to the nineteenth-century. My goal is not only to bring these pieces of literature to light, proving that non-binary genders have existed long before the recent liberal LGBTQIA+ movement, but also to help modernize these identities from the past. In doing this, I aim to explain that contemporary gender identities are not new, but timeless. The experiences seen in this literature are strikingly similar to how people experience gender today. As a result, I hope that readers will be …

In The Blood: Repressing Reproduction In The French Convent From Sanguinity To Sexuality, John Stanley Patin
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
This project examines the French convent as a convergent point of evolving blood myths in the eighteenth century. According to Michel Foucault, as a society transitions from sovereign power to more liberal forms of government, the target of how power is enforced shifts as well: from the punishment of individuals who pose a threat to the crown to the regulation of perceived “deviants” who threaten the health and stability of the nation’s population. As the eighteenth century was a time of radical social change, the era encapsulates a prime moment for the study of continuities and discontinuities of these various …

Qohelet And Camus: Answering The Absurd, Christian A. Sanchez
Global Tides
Albert Camus contributed greatly to the realm of philosophy with the promotion of absurdism—the school of thought hinging on the belief in the “absurd.” Essentially the divorce between man’s desire for meaning and the universe devoid of meaning, the absurd is the dominating theme of his works. Three millennia beforehand in the Hebrew Bible, the rich discourse of Qohelet was recorded as the book of Ecclesiastes. Qohelet, a word simply meaning teacher, concludes that all is “vanity,” or in Hebrew, “hebel.” This central notion of hebel permeates his discourse on the essence of life here on earth. This article …

Rhetorique Du Soi Dans La Litterature Francophone Haïtienne Du Xxe Siècle. Manques Et Manquements?, Jasmine Narcisse

Partant du constat de la précarité du genre autobiographique dans la littérature haïtienne, et des théories formelle (Lejeune), philosophique et historique (Price-Mars, Gusdorf, Fanon, Glissant…), psychanalytique et rhétorique (Fanon, Doubrovsky, Kristeva…) sur le genre lui-même ou traitant de l’identité et de l’individuation, je propose un cadre d’établissement d’un corpus haïtien de l’écriture de soi. Ce sera l’occasion d’analyser les mécanismes mis en place par ces textes pour dire le soi dans une société comme la société haïtienne où le JE est pris en otage par un NOUS lui-même lourdement « surdéterminé » par un legs historique paralysant et l’encombrement social …

Le Mythe Comme Patrie Littéraire De L’Écrivain Migrant, Erika Mandarino
Vernacular: New Connections in Language, Literature, & Culture
L’écrivain migrant contemporain tente d’accéder à la reconnaissance dans la littérature-monde en français, et ceci dépend grandement de la décentralisation de la littérature française nationale. Étant un migrant politique, professionnel, issu d’une diaspora ou autre, l’écrivain, coupé de ses racines nationales, renonce à sa patrie et écrit à partir d’un espace situé entre-deux cultures. Ici, l’identité de l’individu surpasse l’identité culturelle. Les psychologues s’accordent à dire que les mêmes mythes se retrouvent à la base du subconscient collectif de chaque culture ; le mythe représente donc un lieu commun auquel l’écrivain migrant peut s’ancrer. Grâce à quelques exemples, nous verrons …
