Raharimanana : Écrire Pour Dégorger Le Cri Malgache, Françoise Simasotchi-Bronès Jun 2012

Raharimanana : Écrire Pour Dégorger Le Cri Malgache, Françoise Simasotchi-Bronès

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Motivated by the need to be heard and to express a Madagascan cry suffocated by colonial and postcolonial history, the work of writer J.-L. Raharimanana fi ts remarkably well in the francophone literary landscape. It is characterised by writing in constant oxymoronic tension between violence and poetry. Once associated with humour and poetry, violence, portrayed as a residual component of colonial times, becomes energy to be recycled. This innovative force is at the origin of the author’s verbal and generic creativity. The aesthetic of violence in Rharimanana’s texts upholds a profoundly singular poetic and leads to the conclusion that the …


Femmes Arabes Au Harem : La Magie Et Le Pouvoir De L’Oralité Dans L’Écriture De Fatima Mernissi, Samira Farhoud Jun 2012

Femmes Arabes Au Harem : La Magie Et Le Pouvoir De L’Oralité Dans L’Écriture De Fatima Mernissi, Samira Farhoud

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

This article examines the polysemy of the word harem in several of Fatima Mernissi’s texts. Moreover, it considers the role of orality in the form of “oral archives” that were nurtured, maintained and passed on from mother to daughter. The related issue of Mernissi’s feminist activism is also analyzed. Women in Mernissi’s harem constructed complex narratives and “stories” that incorporated many fragments of “professional” or “national” histories, including the “official” history of Morocco’s attainment of independence in 1956. Accounts of femininist movements in the Middle East and Morocco, including the al-Safaa Akhwat or Sisters of Purity (1946) and the group’s …

Alessandro Malaspina And The Voyage Of Disenchantment, Michael James Letzring May 2012

Alessandro Malaspina And The Voyage Of Disenchantment, Michael James Letzring

Arctic and Northern Studies

Between 1775 and 1792 the shores of what is now Alaska and British Columbia were opened to European reconnaissance by a series of mostly Spanish expeditions. The most ambitious and prestigious of the Spanish expeditions was also one of the last; the Spanish hydrographic expedition of 1789-1794 --the Viaje Politico-Cientifico Alrededor del Mundo, created and commanded by Alessandro Malaspina. The Malaspina expedition was a technical tour-de-force that was meant both materially and symbolically to assert Spain's program of reform and modernization under the Bourbon monarchs, but Malaspina's liberal Enlightenment philosophy would in the end isolate him from the absolutist monarchy …
