Heritage Repair: Revisiting Familial And Collective Histories In Filiation Narratives By Dalila Kerchouche, Colombe Schneck And Martine Storti, Rebecca R. Raitses
Heritage Repair: Revisiting Familial And Collective Histories In Filiation Narratives By Dalila Kerchouche, Colombe Schneck And Martine Storti, Rebecca R. Raitses
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
This thesis offers a critical reading of three French narratives: Dalila Kerchouche’s Mon père, ce harki (2003), Colombe Schneck’s Les guerres de mon père (2018), and Martine Storti’s L’arrivée de mon père en France (2008). These works combine representations of familial history with the explorations of personal and collective traumas or repression. The study addresses the following dimensions of the texts: 1) The catalyst of intergenerational silence behind these and many other similar works; 2) The textual interplay between storytelling and material evidence; 3) The ways in which the authors combine narratives of familial hardships on one hand, and of …

La Pirogue De Moussa Touré: Une Réponse Humanitaire À Une Crise Postcoloniale, Whitney A. Drew
Vernacular: New Connections in Language, Literature, & Culture
Le journal examine le film de Moussa Touré La Pirogue et le compare à la conversation actuelle concernant l’immigration du Sénégal vers les îles Canaries. En hommage aux victimes du périple tumultueux, La Pirogue attire l’attention sur l’autre face de l’immigration. Le film analyse les idées à travers le prisme des tropes médiatiques popularisés par le psychologue David Olsen et l’historien Hayden White. Dans le contexte du document, ces tropes explorent le message de Touré sur l’immigration.
Lnterroger Le Présent Et Penser Notre Modernité Dans En Attendant La Montée Des Eaux De Maryse Condé, Bodia Bavuidi
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 …

État De Recherches Et Orientations Nouvelles Du Cinéma Francophone Ouest-Africain: 1980-2000, Suzanne Crosta
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
Now is an opportune time to look at the expanse of research that has emerged since 1980 in the field of African film criticism, to trace its parameters, highlight its strengths and identify its current shifts. In examining its present trends, we shall underscore themes and promising features in current African films. Our focus ·will be on French West African films and filmmakers; we will emphasize theoretical and esthetic writings in the field rather than popular media resources. It is a modest contribution to the field of African film studies, one we hope will foster further research into the full …
Littérature Naturelle: Point De Passage De La Littérature «Beur», Habiba Sebkhi
Littérature Naturelle: Point De Passage De La Littérature «Beur», Habiba Sebkhi
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
The literary works by so-called Beur writers have gained little recognition in most critical studies. It is as if these works have been confined to the space which produced them, the suburbs, symbol of marginality and illegitimacy. The present article proposes a new concept, «litterature naturelle», in an effort to define Beur literature as well as other writings presenting similar characteristics.
