Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores literary representations of cultural hybridity spanning nearly half a century, a period marked by major shifts in Franco-Vietnamese relations. How can identity be thought and represented outside of the oppositional categories that divide cultures, histories, languages and races? Can the intercultural subject be understood as more than a site of cultural contestation, as anything other than a confrontation between incompatible binary opposites? This book offers compelling responses to these questions through a series of close readings of francophone novels written by Vietnamese authors during and just after the colonial period. While many contemporary studies of cultural hybridity tend to privilege the postmodern, deconstructive play of postcolonial identities, Disorientation seeks to uncover what is often obscured in such celebratory analyses: the rigid and potentially traumatic conditions under which colonized subjects experienced the tensions and contradictions of intercultural identity. The close readings that form the core of the book are inflected by cultural and historical considerations, and informed by a range of primary documents that includes training manuals for colonial administrators, works of imperialist propaganda, tourist guidebooks and travel writing, and textbooks from Franco-Vietnamese schools. These contextualized analyses recast the problem of interculturality in an Asian francophone context, expanding the historical and cultural fields within which questions of identity and difference are currently discussed and offering a striking perspective from which to question postcolonial theories of hybridity.

Book excerpt: Hitherto undiscovered yet fundamental historical and literary texts from the Pacific provide the subject matter of this collection of essays which sets out to explore the new forms of writing and hybrid identities emerging from both past and contemporary cultural contact and exchange in the 'South Seas'. This is also a weaving of the connections between Francophone and Anglophone writers long separated by colonial history. Luis Cardoso, writing in Portuguese from East Timor offers further points of contrast. The places of encounter - the beaches of Tahiti, the retelling of the texts of oral tradition, indigenous mastery of writing and appropriation of Western technology, the construction of contemporary Pacific anthologies or emerging post-colonial writing and translation - are sites of interaction and mixing that also involve negotiations of mana or power. From Pierre Loti's mythical and feminised Tahitians to Déwé Gorodé's silenced women, the outcomes of such negotiations are dynamic and different syncretisms. Two chapters reexamine the theoretical concept of hybridity from these Pacific perspectives. Les articles publiés dans le présent recueil explorent les nouvelles formes d'écriture et les identités hybrides issues du creuset des Mers du Sud. Relativement inconnus, les textes au coeur de ces articles n'en sont pas moins les oeuvres fondatrices de la région du Pacifique Sud dont ils constituent la trame historique et littéraire. Longtemps tenus à l'écart les uns des autres par l'histoire coloniale de la région, les textes d'auteurs francophones et anglophones s'enchevêtrent et se recoupent en de multiples domaines. La reprise des textes de tradition orale, l'appropriation autochtone des technologies occidentales, la création d'anthologies contemporaines et l'émergence d'une littérature postcoloniale, sont autant de sites d'interactions et de convergence qui exigent une négociation permanente entre les pouvoirs et mana en présence. C'est une nouvelle facette du concept d'hybridité que nous proposent ces études de la région Pacifique.

Book excerpt: Et si une chronique de l'histoire des hommes avait ete tenue depuis l'aube de l'humanite, et transmise de generation en generation par une lignee ininterrompue de pretres et de souverains ? Apparus au grand jour au debut du XXe s., une somme enorme de documents conserves par la famille Takenouchi, une des plus anciennes du Japon, nous revelent l'existence d'une civilisation repandue mondialement aux temps prehistoriques, eclairant d'un jour nouveau les mysteres de l'architecture megalithique et des pyramides, de l'Atlantide et de Mu, du deluge et des mythologies, remontant jusqu'aux origines meme de l'humanite, aussi fantastique soient elles. Avec une approche humaniste et prosaique, l'auteur s'est efforce de demontrer l'authenticite de ces documents controverses dans un ouvrage richement illustre. Loin de l'instrumentalisation dont ils ont pu faire l'objet aux temps troubles du siecle dernier, ils sont porteurs de profondes valeurs spirituelles de nature a redonner espoir en l'avenir de l'humanite.

Book excerpt: 'Le Mal de Baal' décrit l'odyssée d'un honnête homme solitaire, marchand itinérant, pacifiste, fier et courageux. Un jour, son destin bascule. Il tombe éperdument amoureux d'une jeune femme, mais il est chrétien et elle est musulmane ; la damnation s'annonce. L'affrontement entre deux visions et deux lois du monde commence. Devront-ils se cacher à jamais pour s'aimer ? Triompheront-ils de la médiocrité et de l'intolérance des messagers de la mort ? Leur histoire d'amour dégénère en une histoire d'horreur, de débauche, de passion folle, de parricide, d'inceste, de malédiction, et d'aberrance. Le culte ; a t'il été salut ou malheur pourtant, c'est le même Dieu de la Bonté contrairement à celui qui le précédait : Baal. Dans un réel sens du détail et une succession d'images colorées et limpides, l'auteur décrit l'humain qui se démasque réveillant l'horrible Bête sommeillant en lui, dans un creux de toile : Les guerres fratricides au Liban.
