This book was released on 2022-10-17 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pour écrire aujourd'hui leurs oeuvres de fiction, les écrivains africains postcoloniaux adoptent de nouvelles stratégies scripturaires. Ils choisissent librement les mots pour exprimer leurs pensées. A travers un ensemble de quelques oeuvres africaines engendrées par le fait colonial et les faits sociaux d'après les indépendances, les auteurs de ces oeuvres, dans leur démarche créatrice, renversent « l'ordre normal des choses et des valeurs qui caractérisent la réalité africaine moderne » en contradiction avec les valeurs traditionnelles, affirmant ainsi leur identité littéraire. La notion de déconstruction reste intrinsèquement liée à la quête de liberté, de l'identité et est renforcée par le démembrement de l'écriture, marquée par la fragmentation ou la dislocation des textes et du récit. La plupart des oeuvres retenues dans le cas de cette analyse paraissent hermétiques pour le lecteur non avisé. A cet effet, seule l'exploitation de certains outils d'analyse dont il se sert peut lui garantir une bonne compréhension.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Gabon written by Douglas A. Yates and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-12-28 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new fourth edition of the Historical Dictionary of Gabon brings up to date the political affairs of the country, since the accession to power of Ali Bongo, eldest son of Omar Bongo, the former president-for-life, who died in 2009 after the publication of the third edition. Themes of “continuity” and “change” are present throughout the entries, not only as the Bongo family continues its half century of dynastic rule (there are a dozen Bongos in this new edition), but as the rare primeval tropical rainforests continue to dominate the landscape yet are menaced by destructive logging and palm oil plantations, and as this former French colony after independence continues to collaborate with the French African sphere of influence yet seeks new partners from America and Asia (China, Singapore), and as the country’s numerous ethnic groups perpetuate a multicultural mosaic that is nevertheless threatened by globalization of communications and cultural convergence. This fourth edition of Historical Dictionary of Gabon contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Gabon.
Download or read book H ros et qu te identitaire dans le roman africain subsaharien francophone written by Perpétue Blandine Dah and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La problématique de l'identité est une question qui est d'une actualité à la fois constante et évolutive, car elle traverse l'Histoire de l'Homme. Elle apparaît comme une préoccupation majeure du monde actuel et partant de la société africaine d'aujourd'hui. Thématique récurrente de la littérature subsaharienne africaine d'expression française, au travers de personnages tiraillés, en proie à des conflits psychologiques, voire à des crise identitaires, elle motive cette étude qui se veut investigatrice de ses contours et pourtours dans cinq romans africains. Elle a pour objet de mettre en évidence sa littérarité et de dégager les enjeux aussi bien sémantiques qu'esthétiques à l'œuvre. Ainsi, elle montre comment l'organisation des strates énonciatives qui structurent les œuvres rendent compte du pourquoi d'une identité meurtrie, de comment cette meurtrissure se déploie et se vit et des stratégies de reconquête de l'identité. Organisée en trois parties, la première révèle par u ne analyse immanente, le dévoilement des vacillements d'identité dès la construction narrative des héros. S'en suivent des parcours narratifs aux contenus axiologiques contradictoires, reflets des discordances de leur Etre. La deuxième partie fait état d'une désorientation des personnages dans l'espace, socle de leur quête identitaire. Le dernier axe, avec l'aide de la psychologie sociale met en lumière les stratégies de reconquêtes identitaires opérées par les protagonistes. Toutefois les quêtes identitaires se terminent dans une impasse, car la question existentielle demeure. Au total, l'inscription discursive de l'identité investit les textes à la fois dans le contenu et dans la forme et se donne dans une singularité langagière, elle-même en quête de définition et d'autonomisation. Cette écriture en mutation est représentative de nombreuses œuvres francophones.

Download or read book The Francophone African Text written by Kwaku Addae Gyasi and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2006 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the African writer and the language of the former colonial power, The Francophone African Text: Translation and the Postcolonial Experience highlights the writer's re-appropriation of the foreign language in the creative writing process. It calls attention to the African writer's use of French, a process of creative translation in which the writer's words form a hybrid code that compels the original French to refer to the indigenous African language for meaning. Examining a group of works under the theme of translation, this book reveals that a consideration of both ideological and linguistic elements enhances understanding of the subject from the broader perspective of postcolonial discourse.

Download or read book The African Palimpsest written by Chantal J. Zabus and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2007 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniting a sense of the political dimensions of language appropriation with a serious, yet accessible linguistic terminology, The African Palimpsest examines the strategies of `indigenization? whereby West African writers have made their literary English or French distinctively `African'. Through the apt metaphor of the palimpsest ? a surface that has been written on, written over, partially erased and written over again ? the book examines such well-known West African writers as Achebe, Armah, Ekwensi, Kourouma, Okara, Saro?Wiwa, Soyinka and Tutuola as well as lesser-known writers from francophone and anglophone Africa. Providing a great variety of case-studies in Nigerian Pidgin, Akan, Igbo, Maninka, Yoruba, Wolof and other African languages, the book also clarifies the vital interface between Europhone African writing and the new outlets for African artistic expression in (auto-)translation, broadcast television, radio and film.Hailed as a classic in the 1990s, The African Palimpsest is here reprinted in a completely revised edition, with a new Introduction, updated data and bibliography, and with due consideration of more recent theoretical approaches.'A very valuable book ? a detailed exploration in its concern with language change as demonstrated in post-colonial African literatures? Bill Ashcroft, University of New South Wales ?Apart from its great documentary value, The African Palimpsest provides many theoretical concepts that will be useful to scholars of African literatures, linguists in general ? as well as comparatists who want to gain fresh insights into the processes by which Vulgar Latin once gave birth to the Romance languages.' Ahmed Sheikh Bangura, University of California, Santa Barbara ?As Zabus? book suggests, it is the area where the various languages of a community meet and cross-over ? that is likely to provide the most productive site for the generation of a new literature that is true to the real linguistic situation that pertains in so much of contemporary urban Africa.' Stewart Brown, University of Birmingham

Book excerpt: "[W]ithout a doubt one of the most important studies so far completed on literature in French grounded in the experiences of migrants of sub-Saharan African origin." —Alec Hargreaves, Florida State University France has always hosted a rich and vibrant black presence within its borders. But recent violent events have raised questions about France's treatment of ethnic minorities. Challenging the identity politics that have set immigrants against the mainstream, Black France explores how black expressive culture has been reformulated as global culture in the multicultural and multinational spaces of France. Thomas brings forward questions such as—Why is France a privileged site of civilization? Who is French? Who is an immigrant? Who controls the networks of production? Black France poses an urgently needed reassessment of the French colonial legacy.
