Описание: The essays in this volume provide an overview and critical account of prevalent trends and theoretical arguments informing current investigations into literary treatments of motherhood and aging. They explore how two key stages in women’s lives—maternity and old age—are narrated and defined in fictions and autobiographical writings by contemporary French and francophone women. Through close readings of Maryse Cond?, H?l?ne Cixous, Zahia Rahmani, Linda L?, Pierrette Fleutieux, and Mich?le Sarde, among others, these essays examine related topics such as dispossession, female friendship, and women’s relationships with their mothers. By adopting a broad, synthetic approach to these two distinct and defining stages in women’s lives, this volume elucidates how these significant transitional moments set the stage for women’s evolving definitions (and interrogations) of their identities and roles.

Описание: Focusing on francophone writing from North Africa as it has developed since the 1980s, Writing After Postcolonialism explores the extent to which the notion of 'postcolonialism' is still resonant for literary writers a generation or more after independence, and examines the troubled status of literature in society and politics during this period. Whilst analysing the ways in which writers from Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia have reacted to political unrest and social dissatisfaction, Jane Hiddleston offers a compelling reflection on literature's ability to interrogate the postcolonial nation as well as on its own uncertain role in the current context. The book sets out both to situate the recent generation of francophone writers in North Africa in relation to contemporary politics, to postcolonial theory, and evolving notions of 'world literature, and to probe the ways in which a new and highly sophisticated set of writers reflect on the very notion of 'the literary' during this period of transition.

Описание: Il s’agit dans cette reflexion de comprendre et de saisir les enjeux que suscite la pratique de l’humour et de l’ironie dans des situations dramatiques, deplorables voire tragiques qu’est le contexte de l’Afrique: rire pour (se) corriger, contester, sans pour autant etre agressif? Denoncer sans en avoir l’air? Est-ce une nouvelle esthetique? A travers l’analyse des ?uvres qui vont des annees 1958 a nos jours, a savoir celles de Mongo Beti, Ferdinand Oyono, et plus contemporaines comme celles de A. Mabanckou…, ce livre demontre comment le rire, a travers toutes les differentes formes qu’il peut prendre, a savoir la derision, la parodie, le sarcasme, le grotesque par le biais de l’humour et de l’ironie qui sont les manifestations apparentes, est un outil a la fois de la contestation, de dedramatisation des situations tragiques, mais aussi une esthetique d’ecriture en soi dans la representation du reel, du serieux, que ce soit au niveau social, politique ou de l’ecriture elle-meme qui joue a la fois sur la dissimulation, sur le carnavalesque, la polyphonie et le grotesque pour finir a une poetique du rire.

Описание: Cet ouvrage vise a cerner la place qu’occupe le corps feminin dans la production litteraire francophone des Ameriques et des Caraibes en invitant chacun(e) de ses auteur(e)s a s’interroger sur le topos que constitue la chair feminine dans l’ecriture fictionnelle. Il est clair que le corps, pour les femmes, est bien un lieu a partir duquel ecrire, mais en lui s’inscrivent aussi les enjeux d’une societe, d’une culture et d’une poetique. L’ecriture du corps feminin, qu’elle definisse la position d’un sujet-corps dans la narration ou l’ensemble de ses representations textuelles, se transforme-t-elle en fonction de variables comme l’emplacement geographique, la periode historique, le cadre socio-culturel (pouvant etre marque par l’experience de l’esclavagisme dans les Caraibes ou encore la repression de l’Eglise catholique dans le contexte canadien francais) ? Conserve-t-elle, en depit de tout, des elements communs ? Voici les questions auxquelles il devient possible de repondre a la lecture des douze articles colliges dans ce collectif reunissant des chercheur(e)s d’origines diverses.
