Écriture Apatrlde : Le Langage De L'Exil Dans Le Jardin Perdu D'Andrée Chedid, Marlène Barsoum Dec 2001

Écriture Apatrlde : Le Langage De L'Exil Dans Le Jardin Perdu D'Andrée Chedid, Marlène Barsoum

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The fertile territory of exile, inhabited and explored by displaced writers, has yielded myriad personal narratives. In this article, I discuss the strategy that Andrée Chedid chooses to broach in Le jardin perdu. Instead of relating a personal account of her own uprooting, she recreates the archetypal story of exile, that of Adam and Eve banished from paradise. By imagining what would have been their fears and hopes as they faced the unknown, she evokes the typical emotions of all exiles. By removing the story of displacement from the temporal and personal spheres, she brings it into the realm …

Hyènes Ou L'Étau De La Mondialisation, Sada Niang Jan 2001

Hyènes Ou L'Étau De La Mondialisation, Sada Niang

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Throughout his career, Djibril Diop Mambety infrequently associated with organizations set up by African film makers. He lived a life of dreams and invariably attempted to turn his dreams into film : the dream of a city (Dakar) at the crossroads of the history of a country (Contras'City, 1968), the dream of freedom (Badou Boy, 1970), the dream of belonging to a country free from the determinations of hegemonic discourses (Touki Bouki, 1973). In Hyenas (1992), Djibril Diop Mambety puts globalization on trial.

Une Poétique De L'Entre-Deux: Figures De L'Intermédiaire Dans L'Écriture D'Assia Djebar, Miléna Horvàth

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

The goal of the present study is to observe the narrator's intercultural situation in certain novels of Assia Djebar written since 1980 : L 'amour, la fantasia (1985), Loin de Medine (1991) et Vaste est la prison (1995). In those texts, Djebar's fiction intertextuality reveals the in-between situation of the female narrator. lntertextual methods, what we call « in-between writing », help the transition between the female voice, Islamic writing, texts on colonization and image taken by a camera.

Hégémonie, Féminin Et Paradoxes De La Représentation, Alexie Tcheuyap Jan 2001

Hégémonie, Féminin Et Paradoxes De La Représentation, Alexie Tcheuyap

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Gender issues in African literature and cinema have always raised challenging questions. It seems that the real or supposed oppression of women is often Justified in biological rather than in social terms, which, in turn obfuscates the real issues. This essay addresses the problem of film reecritures, from a comparative perspective. In so doing we pay special attention to the status of the feminine. Our aim is to reconsider current trends and ideological changes in the transfer from literary to filmic text.

L'Image-Son Dans La Zerda Ou La Pharmacie Du Cinématographe, Mireille Calle-Gruber

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Film and literature are interrelated in the works of Assia Djebar. An analysis of La Zerda et les chants de l'oubli reveals among other techniques, that the "image- son" can also be found in the literary production of this author whose concern for autobiography and languages is essential.

État Illégitime Et Discourse Cinématographique Au Cameroun, Gilbert Doho Jan 2001

État Illégitime Et Discourse Cinématographique Au Cameroun, Gilbert Doho

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Cameroonian cinema is a product of a system that France and the local colonialists forged to maintain the imperial cultural hold. In order to cover its repressive nature, the local regime had to build up a cinematographic discourse that would portray its repressive nature and silence a rebellious population.

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 …

Le Portrait Sociologique De La Femme Benjellounienne Dans Le Premier Amour Est Toujours Le Dernier, Ana Soler Dec 2000

Le Portrait Sociologique De La Femme Benjellounienne Dans Le Premier Amour Est Toujours Le Dernier, Ana Soler

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

An analysis of the female characters in this collection of short stories reveals two contradictory images of Woman: on the one hand, the discreet presence of Woman as an oppressed being, subjugated by Islamic dogma and, on the other, the much more salient emancipated woman who transgresses canonical principles. Hence, the appearance of two kinds of couples, both of which are shown to be the site of power struggles that ultimately veer towards a masters/ ave relationship. Pledged to defeat, love is thus presented as no more than a utopic quest.


Madame Arnoul De Jean-Noël Pancrazi : Algérie, Attachements, Arrachements, Anne-Marie Obajtek-Kirkwood Dec 2000

Madame Arnoul De Jean-Noël Pancrazi : Algérie, Attachements, Arrachements, Anne-Marie Obajtek-Kirkwood

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

This work narrates the childhood of a young Pied-Nair in colonial French Algeria, the first twelve years of his love for this colonized country. Yet these years were even more marked by the war which was to tear apart all the inhabitants, natives and colonizers alike, and lead the narrator and his family to exile. The text is therefore deeply structured by the two opposing poles of attachment and wrenching.

Déchirures De V. Y. Mudimbe Ou Le Cri Pour Un Renouveau Poétique En Afrique Centrale, Kavwahirehi Kasereka Dec 2000

Déchirures De V. Y. Mudimbe Ou Le Cri Pour Un Renouveau Poétique En Afrique Centrale, Kavwahirehi Kasereka

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

V.Y. Mudimbe's Dechirures (1971) has been widely analyzed. Some critics have emphasized the poet's hermetism or intellectualism; others, his themes; still others attempt to reveal the moral lesson that emerges from his poetry. In this article, by focussing on the meaning of the poet's opening declaration ('I would like to cry out against poems''), by weighing quotations from Jean de la Croix, Rembrandt and Mallarme in the text, and by situating this collection in the context of African literature, the author is seeking to demonstrate that Dechirures can be considered as a manifesto for a postnegritude poetry. This new poet …
