Download or read book The Author as Cannibal written by Felisa Vergara Reynolds and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first decades after the end of French rule, Francophone authors engaged in an exercise of rewriting narratives from the colonial literary canon. In The Author as Cannibal, Felisa Vergara Reynolds presents these textual revisions as figurative acts of cannibalism and examines how these literary cannibalizations critique colonialism and its legacy in each author’s homeland. Reynolds focuses on four representative texts: Une tempête (1969) by Aimé Césaire, Le temps de Tamango (1981) by Boubacar Boris Diop, L’amour, la fantasia (1985) by Assia Djebar, and La migration des coeurs (1995) by Maryse Condé. Though written independently in Africa and the Caribbean, these texts all combine critical adaptation with creative destruction in an attempt to eradicate the social, political, cultural, and linguistic remnants of colonization long after independence. The Author as Cannibal situates these works within Francophone studies, showing that the extent of their postcolonial critique is better understood when they are considered collectively. Crucial to the book are two interviews with Maryse Condé, which provide great insight on literary cannibalism. By foregrounding thematic concerns and writing strategies in these texts, Reynolds shows how these rewritings are an underappreciated collective form of protest and resistance for Francophone authors.

Download or read book Michel Tournier written by Zhaoding Yang and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2001 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette étude sur Michel Tournier, un des écrivains français les plus importants de nos jours, se concentre sur les problèmes philosophiques qu'il pose dans son écriture, tout particulièrement sur la question du soi par rapport à autrui et son implication littéraire. Fasciné par la réécriture du mythe chez Tournier, ce travail étudie les textes littéraires de ce dernier d'une perspective nietschéenne. Le livre examine également de près comment la narration chez Tournier est informée par une remise en question du rationalisme, du colonialisme et des systèmes de valeur conventionnels, et comment sa notion d'une co-création de l'auteur/lecteur nous invite à dépasser l'antagonisme humain. Ayant montré que la conception de l'écriture et de la lecture chez Tournier s'intéresse à une création joyeuse au lieu d'une recherché obsessive du sens, il conclut par nous suggérer une correlation entre l'idéal de la «Grande Santé» chez Nietzsche et les motifs transcendants dans les récits de Tournier.
