African Literature in Transition
This book offers a compelling new approach to African literatures as formed by and itself a form of collective memory. It explores the historical spaces and maps that African literature brings to the surface and re-imagines in novel ways. The stories that matter about what happened in the past together constitute a collective memory that African writers and readers draw upon to locate themselves within the world. The book examines the mental maps…
African Responses to European Literature about Africa
This chapter investigates the intricate intertextual discourse between African writers and their European counterparts, exploring their responses to the often distorted representations of Africa by European authors. From historical figures such as Luís de Camões and Joyce Cary to modern writers like Albert Camus and Louis-Ferdinand Céline, these encounters with Africa have had a significant impact on global literature. African writers, influenced…
From language to literature
If Patrick Chamoiseau’s work on the issue of language has been amply studied, this article intends to shed new light on it through an analysis of its relation to the printed book, as represented in the Martinician writer’s novel.

Si Moeurs des sauvages amériquains, comparées aux moeurs des premiers temps (1724) a fait l’objet de nombreuses études, le dernier chapitre, intitulé « De la langue », a été laissé de côté par la plupart des commentateurs de Lafitau, car jugé décevant.

Une gémellité inversée. Le devoir de violence de Yambo Ouologuem et Le dernier des Justes d’André Schwarz-Bart
Premier écrivain africain à se voir décerner le prix Renaudot en 1968 pour Le devoir de violence, Yambo Ouologuem fut d’abord encensé par la critique avant d’être accusé d’avoir plagié Le dernier des Justes d’André Schwarz-Bart (1959). Si la plupart des commentateurs se sont concentrés sur ce qu’ils percevaient comme les limites du roman, notamment les faiblesses du personnage central, Raymond Spartacus Kassoumi, aucun, semble-t-il, n’a étudié sa…
