Resistance, Refuge, Revival
État présent
This état présent examines the emergence and potential of the blue humanities as a framework for rethinking relations between culture, language, and territory across French and francophone contexts. In light of recent geopolitical shifts that challenge the coherence of la francophonie , the article argues that water — both material and conceptual — offers a productive paradigm for decentring Eurocentric, land-based models of culture and articulat…
Points of Entanglement in French Caribbean Travel Writing (1620-1722)
Navigating Archipelagos
This chapter situates travel writing in the Caribbean region, looking at how geography might enter productively in travel narratives as a point of entanglement. Using Glissant’s notion of archipelagic thinking alongside Henri Lefebvre’s and Michel de Certeau’s theories of the construction of space, it argues that whereas the travelers sought to territorialize the islands, the archipelago drew them into more erratic movements, which impacted on th…
Conclusion… or Alternative Beginnings
This book set out to challenge the silence of a messy period of Caribbean history by relocalizing early colonial travel writing to the Caribbean and by paying attention to textual disjunctions and temporal overlaps. The concluding chapter offers a discussion about what the readings of early modern travel writings might entail for (French) Caribbean literary history. More precisely, it teases out the possibility of putting this past to work in ter…
Other Tongues
This chapter examines languages as a third point of entanglement that has both spatial and temporal ramifications while at the same time being sites where domination is both sustained and disrupted. It starts by describing the linguistic reality of the islands in the seventeenth century discussing how the plurilingualism that existed caused challenges for the narratives, which had to abide to contemporary aesthetics. The analysis show that travel…

Experiments with Empire
Whether literature borrows from the social sciences or the social sciences owe their existence to the emergence of the novel, as Jacques Rancière has suggested, can be discussed.But the fact that there is a link between the two has been indisputable ever since Mme de Staël claimed that literature is the expression of society.Justin Izzo's Experiments with Empire is one of the latest contributions to the theorization of the intersections between f…
Lire l’ Histoire générale des Antilles de J.-B. Du Tertre
Cette étude propose d'examiner les ramifications historiques de l'exotisme à partir d'une lecture critique de l' Histoire générale des Antilles (1654/1667-71) écrite par le missionnaire dominicain, Jean-Baptiste Du Tertre. En procédant d'une analyse littéraire, notre étude suggère une reconfiguration de l'exotisme basée à la fois sur la théorisation contemporaine et sur le contexte historique et l'esthétique de l'époque. Notre travail se veut don…
New Perspectives on Frantz Fanon
Créolité and the Regime of Visibility
Arguing that it is time to move beyond the question of language as the key instrument for articulating identity, this essay offers an examination of the visual mode of representation in the aesthetics of the creolist movement. Taking Jacques Rancière’s idea of different regimes of writing, the analysis starts by examining what the author calls the regime of visibility and its ontological implications in the 1989 manifesto Éloge de la créolité. Th…
The Force of Desire
This article offers a reexamination of the role of sexuality in French Carib- bean literature by looking at the writings of two expatriate authors, Rene Depestre from Haiti and Maryse Conde from Guadeloupe. These authors, it is argued, explore a radically affirmative sexuality that transgresses national, cultural, and identitarian boundaries. The focus is placed on Depestre's poems in Journal d'un animal marin (1964) and Conde's novel Celanire, c…
The Living Word
In French Caribbean literature, translations from Creole to French, along with the inclusion of Creole orality in novels written in French, constitute a broader form of intracultural translation that expose problematic tensions between sameness and difference. The essay starts by exploring some of the modes of intracultural translation used by the authors of the créolité movement but focuses on Ina Césaire's novel Zonzon tête carrée, where cultur…
Crossroads Poetics
Crossroads PoeticsGlissant and Ethnography Christina Kullberg (bio) Édouard Glissant's work seems to actualize the metaphor used by French ethnographer and writer Michel Leiris to capture the Caribbean: it is a poetics of the crossroads between several discourses and forms of expression. But the intersection between history, sociology, philosophy, poetry, and other areas often occurs without the author fully explaining the mechanisms behind his a…
