Book excerpt: Excerpt from Algeria: The Topography and History, Political, Social, and Natural of French Africa Africa, the land of mysterious memories and monstrous realities, the progenitor of pyramids, baobab-trees, negroes and boas, lies now between two fires. The rattle of Mini 6 rifles is beginning to be heard at the Cape, and its echo resounds from the Atlas. Kabyles and Kaffirs are measuring their strength with France and England, and the issue cannot be doubtful. Having once tasted the sweets of conquest, neither of the two great Western Powers will be disposed to resign them in a hurry. Rather may we look to their grasping at their neighbours goods, till some fine day finds French sentinels fraternising with the. Cape corps on the Niger, and the Mountains of the Moon surveyed by ktdands de Paris and honest cockneys. As to the advantages derivable from European colonies in Africa, South or North, they are yet a matter of expectation. Hitherto the modems have certainly suffered more and done less than the Romans in African campaigns. Algeria, the granary of Rome, has been the grave of the French soldier; and yet a nursery for a goodly crop of iron men of the Changarnier stamp, who have done brave service in the streets ol Paris. The French Bfgency may be looked ux nas an issue to relieve the apoplectic symptoms of the mother country, and a drain for her floating capital; but as to any positive returns derived by France for her outlay in that quarter, we confess ourselves unable to discover them, except in the shape of cotton and the above African chiefs, who have sharpened their wits and whetted their swords, as well as their appetite for slaughter, in Algerian razzias. That the future will show better things, is our firm belief. Algeria and Morocco, under an enlightened sway, and pacified, might in all probability yield glorious crops, and afford a noble field for commercial speculation. Noris the day probably very distant when Cape Madeira and other Cape liquids, as well as solids, will find their way in great abundance into the English market.

Download or read book Algeria and France 1800 2000 written by Patricia M. E. Lorcin and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2006-10-19 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between Algeria and France that formed during the 132 years of colonial rule did not end in 1962 when Algeria gained its independence. This long period of occupation left an indelible mark on the social fabric of both societies, one that continues to influence their cultures, identities, and politics. Wide-ranging in scope yet complementary in focus, the essays deftly convey the extent to which the French colonial experience in Algeria resonates on both sides of the Mediterranean. Young and established scholars shed light on the linguistic, cultural, and social mechanisms of violence, remembrance, forgetting, fantasy, nostalgia, prejudice, mythmaking, and fractured identity. Addressing the nature of Franco-Algerian relations through such topics as migration, displacement, settler colonialism, racism, and sexuality, these essays provide an important contribution to postcolonial studies, cultural studies, and North African history. With renewed public debate surrounding the two countries’ shared past and their interwoven communities today, this volume will be indispensable for anyone with an interest in the relations between Algeria and France and the literature on memory and nostalgia.

Download or read book Algeria Revisited written by Rabah Aissaoui and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-09 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 5 July 1962, Algeria became an independent nation, bringing to an end 132 years of French colonial rule. Algeria Revisited provides an opportunity to critically re-examine the colonial period, the iconic war of decolonisation that brought it to an end and the enduring legacies of these years. Given the apparent centrality of violence in this history, this volume asks how we might re-imagine conflict so as to better understand its forms and functions in both the colonial and postcolonial eras. It considers the constantly shifting balance of power between different groups in Algeria and how these have been used to re-fashion colonial relationships. Turning to the postcolonial period, the book explores the challenges Algerians have faced as they have sought to forge an identity as an independent postcolonial nation and how has this process been represented. The roles played by memory and forgetting are highlighted as part of the ongoing efforts by both Algeria and France to grapple with the complex legacies of their prolonged and tumultuous relationship. This interdisciplinary volume sheds light on these and other issues, offering new insights into the history, politics, society and culture of modern Algeria and its historical relationship with France.
