Maryse Condé Devant Les Événments Africains Troublants: Entre Représentation Et Discours, Mouhamadou Cissé

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The repressed school strike in Guinea Conakry in 1961, the post-apartheid social crisis in South Africa and the 2002 civil war in Côte d'Ivoire are major events in African history that drew Maryse Condé's attention as illustrated through Heremakhonon (1976), Histoire de la femme cannibale (2003), En attendant la montée des eaux (2010). This article analyzes, beyond the modes of representation of events, the critical discourses that emerged from social fictions in examining murderous ideologies, the overflow of political, racial, ethnic identities as well as the obsessions of power that are at the origin of imagined conflicts. It explores how …

Lnterroger Le Présent Et Penser Notre Modernité Dans En Attendant La Montée Des Eaux De Maryse Condé, Bodia Bavuidi

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Maryse Condé has successively been branded as unseemly drifter, insolent, rebel and subversive, due to the fluidity of her mind and her refusal to be fixated on any obsolete idea. Her stance shows a tendency to evolve with her time in political and intellectual thoughts. If Condé's entire work shows that the author cannot be placed in a specific straightjacket, it is because her writing conveys the urgency of daily experiences. The permanent concern for human well-being reflected in her work brings about an uneasiness towards events that threaten this well-being daily. Thus, by drawing on studies of the concept …

De L'Actualité À L'Actualisation Dans Traversée De La Mangrove Et La Vie Sans Fards De Maryse Condé, Karine Gendron

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

After studying the narrative figures at work in Maryse Condé's novels Traversée de la Mangrove (1989) and La vie sans fards (2012), our article questions the obvious valorization of stories and of storytelling shown as ambiguous in the textual space, because they are shown as indefinite, polysemic and uncertain. In the textual universe, the ambiguous narrative is especially sought after because it is updatable, by the enunciator as much as by the instance addressed. We suggest that this characteristic of the ambiguous and renewable story and of storytelling is also performed in Maryse Condé' works. In our view, this corresponds …

La Dynamique D'Un Engagement « Poélitique » : Le Cas Du Théâtre De Maryse Condé, Edwige Gbouablé

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Maryse Condé's plays reveal both a scriptural and thematic dynamism. This movement manifests a commitment that renews itself through the dramatization of varied sociopolitical current events. The first plays of the Guadeloupean showcase slavery, colonization and Independence. The problematic of the future of Black peoples flowing from them resounds differently in her recent works. Maryse Condé complexifies it indeed and updates it constantly. This makes her an unconventional author, for her writing takes roots in negritude, partakes in post-negritude and proceeds equally from a dramaturgy of uprootedness.

La Vision Condéenne De La Crise Des Systèmes Éducatifs Et Des Enseignements Actuels, Martha Asunción Alonso Moreno

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Between the publication of Moi, Tituba sorcière (1986) and Mets et merveilles (2015), Maryse Condé has channeled her academic and pedagogical experiences onto the realm of fiction. This article shows the committed relations of the Caribbean author to education and its stakes. We will proceed to the identification and the analysis of the symptoms of a modern school and a world both in global crisis, as shown in the autobiographical and critique writing of Condé.

De Harlem À Yaoundé: Du Panafricanisme Au Discours Critique En Afrique Francophone, Sélom Komlan Gbanou

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The birth of the Negro Renaissance movement in Harlem (USA), at the beginning of the 1920s, had a remarkable impact on the destiny of the black peoples of Africa, especially in their fight for independence. Having experienced slavery and segregation, the AfroAmerican intellectuals fought continuously in the quest for dignity and freedom. In so doing, their actions and ideas inspired their African counterparts to devise ways and means in their anticolonial fight. This impact, in addition to other factors, inherently led to the 1956 and 1959 Congresses held in Paris and Rome respectively. The purpose of these meetings was to …

Le Docteur Et La Sorcière : Conflits De Médecine Et Concurrence Des Traditions Dans Moi, Tituba, Sorcière ... Noire De Salem, Natacha D'Orlando

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

This article focuses on Maryse Condé's depiction of medicine and science in her 1986 novel Mai, Tituba, sorcière. It argues that Tituba's critique of modern western medicine, as well as her definition of witchcraft as a healing art, resonate with some topical feminist issues around the time of its publication. Condé's rewriting of the Salem witchtrials emphasizes indeed the epistemological, as well as metaphysical, conflict between the female Caribbean healer and the male doctor whose diagnoses contribute to Tituba's condemnation. As Tituba's confidence in her power and knowledge grows, she also impersonates the danger of an arrogant science, forgoing Man …

Comparing Functions, Costs And Rewards Of Quality Engineers And Six Sigma Black Belts, C. Grant Short

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The respective Bodies of Knowledge (BoKs) as described by the American Society for Quality (ASQ) for Certified Quality Engineers (ASQ, 2015a) and Certified Six Sigma Black Belts (ASQ, 2015b) are quite similar, yet anecdotally, six sigma black belts are recognized and consequently rewarded more highly than are quality engineers. While Quality Engineering work is typically regarded as preventive in nature, work performed by six sigma black belts is in the realm of improvement, hence is reactive in nature. Consequently, a dichotomy exists in that preventive actions, which are less costly by their nature, are not rewarded as well as costlier …

Managing The Effects Of Wireless Sensors On Vehicle Ad Hoc Network (Vanet) Safety, Melvin Hayes

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This paper proposes to conduct research on the vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) area of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) with a focus on investigating safety methods that will significantly reduce passenger vehicle collisions which ultimately will help to save lives and reduce property losses. Key areas of this ITS research will include highway infrastructure or wireless sensor networks (WSN) to the cloud (web service) and the cloud (web service) to highway infrastructure or wireless sensor network (WSN). In turn, the cloud (web service) will communicate with passenger vehicles as components of a highway infrastructure (WSN) to vehicle (I2V) systems and …

Effectiveness Of Campusclarity By Everfi’S Sexual Harassment Prevention Program On Victimization Rates, Harold Leon Seifers Iii

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a correlation between the number of reported incidences of rape and stalking on college campuses and campuses that utilize CampusClarity by EVERFI as an educational tool to “reduce risky student behavior and prevent sexual assault on your campus.” The study investigated the relationship between the dependent variables, incidences of rape and stalking, versus the independent variables: partnership, men’s population, women’s population, on-campus drug crime, on-campus alcohol crime, on-campus domestic violence, and on-campus dating violence. The 11,181 campuses that report crime data required by the Clery Act were included as …
