This book was released on 2023-03-06 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le roman féminin d'expression française fait irruption dans l'espace littéraire marocain en 1982. Depuis, il n'a cessé d'occuper une place imposante au Maroc par la diversité de ses centres d'intérêt et sa valeur esthétique. Étudier cette littérature dans un espace qui fut naguère l'apanage des hommes nous impose d'aller à la quête de sa valeur ajoutée, de déceler ses spécificités et ses nouveautés. Les différentes analyses effectuées ainsi que les approches utilisées (sociohistorique, comparative, narratologique et interculturelle) ont prouvé que le roman féminin marocain n'est pas une simple plaidoirie en faveur de la cause féministe. Il est ouvert à tous les genres, il a ses propres épopées, ses histoires, ses drames, ses comédies, ses satires, sa philosophie, son merveilleux et son grotesque. Il les a mêlés en les enduisant de couleurs locales. Une hétérogénéité apparente propre au postmodernisme littéraire.

Download or read book Le r cit f minin au Maroc written by Marc Gontard and published by PU Rennes. This book was released on 2005 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au début des années 90 au Maroc, peu de femmes, en dehors des universitaires, s'étaient aventurées dans l'écriture et les récits féminins, notamment en langue française, ne dépassaient guère la dizaine. C'est surtout depuis 1995 que les Marocaines, encouragées par une véritable effervescence associative, sont entrées en littérature au point que le roman de langue française est devenu l'un des modes d'expression privilégié de la contestation féminine. Qui sont ces romancières qui ont choisi de dire leur révolte dans la langue de l' " autre " ? Peut-on parler, en dehors des habituels clichés, d'une littérature féminine en émergence ? Qu'est-ce qui différencie, dans sa thématique et dans ses formes de textualisation, ce nouveau mode d'écriture, de la littérature des hommes ? Telles sont les questions auxquelles s'efforce de répondre ce travail collectif issu d'une collaboration entre l'université de Rennes 2 (ERELLIF) et l'université de Casablanca 1 (GREFEC), en interrogeant les oeuvres romanesques de Siham Benchekroun, Boutaina Tawil, Rajae Benchemsi, Bahaa Trabelsi, Fatema Mernissi, Nadia Chafik, Rita et Khayat ou Souad Bahechar, pour ne citer que les plus connues.

Download or read book Philosophy in a Time of Terror written by Giovanna Borradori and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for Philosophy in a Time of Terror was born hours after the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna Borradori sat down with Jürgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time, Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the greatest intellects of the century at work.

Download or read book The Translation Zone written by Emily Apter and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-16 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translation, before 9/11, was deemed primarily an instrument of international relations, business, education, and culture. Today it seems, more than ever, a matter of war and peace. In The Translation Zone, Emily Apter argues that the field of translation studies, habitually confined to a framework of linguistic fidelity to an original, is ripe for expansion as the basis for a new comparative literature. Organized around a series of propositions that range from the idea that nothing is translatable to the idea that everything is translatable, The Translation Zone examines the vital role of translation studies in the "invention" of comparative literature as a discipline. Apter emphasizes "language wars" (including the role of mistranslation in the art of war), linguistic incommensurability in translation studies, the tension between textual and cultural translation, the role of translation in shaping a global literary canon, the resistance to Anglophone dominance, and the impact of translation technologies on the very notion of how translation is defined. The book speaks to a range of disciplines and spans the globe. Ultimately, The Translation Zone maintains that a new comparative literature must take stock of the political impact of translation technologies on the definition of foreign or symbolic languages in the humanities, while recognizing the complexity of language politics in a world at once more monolingual and more multilingual.

Book excerpt: One of the rising stars in the international art scene, Kader Attia (b. 1970) is a French-Algerian multidisciplinary artist whose powerful yet complex images, objects and installations examine the way cultures and histories have been constructed.Attia often plays with the vocabulary of museums and architecture to trouble the boundaries between different worlds, particularly Western and non-Western, through his use of re-appropriated and repaired everyday objects and ephemera, such as African masks, stapled paving cracks, assemblages of prostheses and photographs of surgical reconstruction.An in-depth interview with Hayward Gallery director Ralph Rugoff explores the artist's major themes, while art historians and other experts draw out particular threads to examine in depth. Compact but wide-ranging, this is a publication to be held in the hand - an indispensable first guide to an artist with an exceptional perspective on the way humans think about their place in the world.The book features an interview with Ralph Rugoff and essays by Nicola Clayton, Jean-Michel Frodon, Francoise Vergès and Giovanna Zapperi.Published alongside Hayward Gallery's exhibition, London (12 February - 6 May 2019).

Download or read book Brouhaha written by Lionel Ruffel and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the hypermediated age where knowledge production is decentered and horizontal, the experience of lived time has become a concordance of temporalities. The literary imagination, which was emblematic of modernity and thoroughly connected to the book as a support structure, has now become integrated within a much vaster regime of publication. Thought concerning the world is from now on a thought concerning a plurality of worlds. By way of six guiding threads (exposition, media, controversy, publication, institutionalization, archaeology), this essay describes the transformation of cultural forms and visions of history.

Download or read book France Story of a Childhood written by Zahia Rahmani and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An intimate, autobiographical novel of an alleged Harki Algerian family's exile from home and unwelcoming reception in France. A timely and moving tale of uprooting and resettlement, imprisonment and escape, persecution and loss, narrated by the daughter of an alleged Harki, an Algerian soldier who fought for the French during the Algerian War of Independence. It was the fate of such men to be twice exiled, first in their homeland after the war, and later in France, where fleeing Harki families sought refuge but instead faced contempt, discrimination, and exclusion. Zahia Rahmani blends reality and imagination in her writing, offering a fictionalized version of her own family's struggle. With ingenuity that defies categories and genre, the author delves deeply into her past with the immediacy of memoir, the reflection of essay, the artistry of fiction, and the relevance of reportage. From the unique perspective of the daughter of an accused Harki, she examines France's complex and controversial history with its former colony and offers new insight into the French civil riots of 2005. She makes a stirring plea for understanding between generations and cultures, and especially for an end to the destructive practice of condemning children for their fathers' actions and beliefs."--Page 2 of cover (flap).
