Mémoire Du Duel Dans À La Recherche Du Temps Perdu, Yan Hamel Jun 2010

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.


Roland Brival Et Le Métissage:Un Nouvel Humanisme, Yolande Aline Helm Jun 2010

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

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

the article focalizes on roland Brival’s conception of “métissage” in his fiction texts:for him, it is synonymous to a new “humanism”. i revisit the theories which have permeate French caribbean literature (negritude, creolity, creolization). they are not synonymous of “métissage”; in fact, Brival’s vision is apart from the “creolity” movement.


Je E(S)T L’Autre, Nadia Duchêne Jun 2010

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.


Images De Femmes: Une H/Histoire De La France En Algérie À Travers Les Carnets D’Orient De Jacques Ferrandez, Carla Calargé Jun 2010

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) …


Scénographie Du Domaine Maudit De Cung Giu Nguyên, Van Quang Pham Jun 2010

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.


Références Surréalistes Dans L’Œuvre Théâtrale De Georges Schéhadé, Georges Khoriaty Jun 2010

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 …

Théâtres Du Roman : Les Scènes De L’Écriture Francophone, Sélom Komlan Gbanou Dec 2009

Théâtres Du Roman : Les Scènes De L’Écriture Francophone, Sélom Komlan Gbanou

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The present analysis proposes to show how, with a large number of authors, writing becomes an important stage of the imaginary space of the novel, of the configuration of the narrative and the characters, as well as the language. In the field of narrative imaginary, novel and theatre go together, complete each other in order to convert the process of writing into a game where the pleasure of the writer encounters that of the reader, this spectator of the literary scene.


Le Roman Africain : Drame Or Histoire, Bernard Mouralis Dec 2009

Le Roman Africain : Drame Or Histoire, Bernard Mouralis

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

For a long time, African novelists claimed filiation with realism. But there is in realism a deep contradiction between the will of describing the social world and the will of changing it. From this contradiction, the paper studies : the relation between theatre and novel ; the question of citizenship in the novel ; the place of the novel in front of knowledge and action. The novel shows dynamics and characters living in the time. So, it tends to wander from the principle of knowledge and self-consciousness.


De La Parole Poétique À La Parole Politique Dans Les Oeuvres Théâtrales D’Aimé Césaire Et De Sony Labou Tansi, Virginie Darriet-Féréol Dec 2009

De La Parole Poétique À La Parole Politique Dans Les Oeuvres Théâtrales D’Aimé Césaire Et De Sony Labou Tansi, Virginie Darriet-Féréol

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Aimé Césaire and Sony Labou Tansi wished for acting and voicing for their people both on the political and literary level. By choosing the drama, they presented the language. By creating a new language, a new literature, a new artistic aesthetics, consequently a new trend of thinking, their writing served policy.


Le Théâtre Amateur Marocain. Trajectoire D’Un Théâtre Alternatif, Omar Fertat Dec 2009

Le Théâtre Amateur Marocain. Trajectoire D’Un Théâtre Alternatif, Omar Fertat

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Modern Moroccan theatre was born with non-professional artists and has remained intimately linked to this milieu. Unlike professional playwrights, non-professional artists have never bowed to the demands of political authorities, whether it be the French administration or the local Makhzen. They used this artistic medium as a forum for debate and resistance against the oppressor. This freedom of expression operated not just at the political level but also at the aesthetic level. Since non-professionals were not constrained by the need to please an audience fond of social comedies and melodramas, they could explore more risky avant-garde paths. In spite of …


Poésie Et Engagement Dans Vous N’Êtes Pas Seul De Gérard Étienne, Simone Grossman Dec 2009

Poésie Et Engagement Dans Vous N’Êtes Pas Seul De Gérard Étienne, Simone Grossman

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

This article addresses the terms of commitment in Vous n’êtes pas seul by Gérard Étienne. For one part, the representation of the poet-and-tramp pertains to a first type of ideological commitment. For the second part, the study of oxymorons and references to Baudelaire will lead to a definition of another commitment of poetry in the novel as a counter-discourse for the victims of social exclusion.

L’Écriture De La Perte Chez Assia Djebar, Lila Kermas Dec 2009

L’Écriture De La Perte Chez Assia Djebar, Lila Kermas

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

This study proposes a reflexion on the feeling of “loss” as a source of literary creation. The different tensions generated by an hybrid identity of a character in a quest, especially in La disparition de la langue française (“disappearance of the French language”) by Assia Djebar ; what matters here is to see how the feeling of crisis and the split reveals itself and how it dissolves in and through (the process of) writing.


Le « Français De Rue » Et L’Écriture De La Guerre : Portée Et Signification, Jean-Fernand Bédia. Dec 2009

Le « Français De Rue » Et L’Écriture De La Guerre : Portée Et Signification, Jean-Fernand Bédia.

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Louis-Ferdinand Céline, Ahmadou Kourouma, Emmanuel Dongala and Ken Saro-Wiwa made speeches of street, stigmatized like a “language with hooligan” (Quefellec, 2006), a model, at least an agent of the aesthetics of the language of writing of their romantic fictions on the wars. The occurrence of “French of street” whose vulgarity and indocility narratively build the “mythèmes” violence, hatred and horror, reveals the transgression of the linguistic standard, without deteriorating the significant intentionality of works.


Mutations Politiques Et Processus De Légitimation Culturelle : Considérations Sur Le Théâtre Populaire Camerounais, Pierre Fandio Dec 2009

Mutations Politiques Et Processus De Légitimation Culturelle : Considérations Sur Le Théâtre Populaire Camerounais, Pierre Fandio

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

All forms of theatre have never been perceived the same way in contemporary Cameroon. Whereas the written theatre relatively received an acceptable treatment from the official instances of recognition, the non-written one has always been excluded. This communication sets out to show how, from this marginalized position and palpably inspired at the same time from the Italian commedia dell’arte, the French vaudeville and the African traditional dramaturgic shape, a new and popular form of theatre came to existence. Thanks to the exceptional capacity of adaptation and innovation of its discourse and thematic, the offer of this “street dramaturgy” rather matches …


Damner Le Damier Ou Rédimer La Danse De La Terre Dans Le Meurtre Du Samedi Gloria De Raphaël Confiant, Hanétha Vété-Congolo Dec 2009

Damner Le Damier Ou Rédimer La Danse De La Terre Dans Le Meurtre Du Samedi Gloria De Raphaël Confiant, Hanétha Vété-Congolo

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The value of the “damier”, a traditional dance from Martinique, is significant because it evokes cohesion, order and balance and symbolizes distinctive attributes from Martinique’s society at large. Martinique enters in a new era which characteristics are defined by regional development. This development is a break between the past and the present or with population’s intelligible referents and landmarks, and is represented between tradition and modernity, as a transformation led by urbanization. Traditions become shaky and in the novel, the city is unable to take on those rural values, symbolized by the “damier”.


La Dramatisation De L’Écriture Chez Sony Labou Tansi, Georges Ngal Dec 2009

La Dramatisation De L’Écriture Chez Sony Labou Tansi, Georges Ngal

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

As an author always articulates his writing with idioms that reflect a specific time period and a given social group, Sony Labou Tansi talks about “tropicalité”, and gives himself the goal to create multiple “tropicalités”.
