Les discours tenus aujourd'hui sur l'Afrique restent pour une large part pénétrés des fantasmes nourris par la conquête coloniale à la fin du XIXe siècle. Pour les saisir à leurs origines, l'auteur de ce livre est remonté aux sources du roman colonial français et a relu plus d'une centaine de romans ou cycles romanesques publiés entre 1863, date du texte fondateur Cinq semaines en ballon, et la guerre de 1914. Ces fictions, dues à quelques grands noms (Zola, Villiers de l'Isle-Adam, Jules Verne, Rosny Aîné) et le plus souvent à une foule de feuilletonistes sans gloire (de Louis Boussenard à Fernand Hue, d'Armand Dubarry à Edgar Monteil), combinent avec une grande liberté les scénarios les plus improbables avec des matériaux empruntés aux récits de voyages des explorateurs. A ce titre, elles forment au sein de la littérature fin de siècle un vaste territoire inexploré, avec son histoire et ses sous-genres propres, ses pratiques d'écriture et ses stéréotypies particulières. Enfants perdus livrés à la gueule des lions, explorateurs assiégés par des hordes de cannibales, reines des Amazones à l'ardeur tropicale, sous-offs ignares proclamés rois par des foules noires émerveillées : rien ne manquait aux terreurs rassurantes et aux espérances illimitées promises aux lecteurs, ces téméraires aventuriers en chambre. Mais ces fictions leur livraient aussi, sous le couvert didactique et moralisateur d'aventures déclarées authentiques, des histoires de pillages et des scènes de carnages - affabulations de militaires rêvant, dans l'attente de la Revanche, de blanchir l'Afrique noire en exterminant ses habitants. De la visite d'un continent alors si mal connu qu'on pouvait tout en dire, il ressort que la France, ligotée dans les certitudes rigides du positivisme, du nationalisme et du racialisme, a rencontré l'Afrique à la pire époque de son histoire intellectuelle, au point de faire d'elle le laboratoire fictionnel de ses songeries génocidaires, voire de ce qui apparaît après coup comme un proto-fascisme français.

The Colonial Comedy Imperialism In The French Realist Novel written by Jennifer Yee and has been published by Oxford University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2016-09-01 with Literary Criticism categories.

Nineteenth-century French Realism focuses on metropolitan France, with Paris as its undisputed heart. Through Jennifer Yee's close reading of the great novelists of the French realist and naturalist canon - Balzac, Flaubert, Zola, Maupassant - The Colonial Comedy reveals that the colonies play a role at a distance even in the most apparently metropolitan texts. In what Edward Said called 'geographical notations' of race and imperialism the presence of the colonies off-stage is apparent as imported objects, colonial merchandise, and individuals whose colonial experience is transformative. Indeed, the realist novel registers the presence of the emerging global world-system through networks of importation, financial speculation, and immigration as well as direct colonial violence and power structures. The literature of the century responds to the last decades of French slavery, and direct colonialism (notably in Algeria), but also economic imperialism and the extension of French influence elsewhere. Far from imperialist triumphalism, in the realist novel exotic objects are portrayed as fake or mass-produced for the growing bourgeois market, while economic imperialism is associated with fraud and manipulation. The deliberate contrast of colonialism and exoticism within the metropolitan novel, and ironic distancing of colonial narratives, reveal the realist mode to be capable of questioning its own epistemological basis. The Colonial Comedy argues for the existence in the nineteenth century of a Critical Orientalism characterized by critique of its own discursive foundations. Using the tools of literary analysis within a materialist approach, The Colonial Comedy opens up the domestic Paris-Provinces axis to signifying chains pointing towards the colonial space.

Finding The Plot written by Loïc Artiago and has been published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2014-08-11 with Literary Criticism categories.

“Plot”, writes Peter Brooks, “is so basic to our very experience of reading, and indeed to our articulation of experience in general, that criticism has often passed it over in silence…” (Reading for the Plot, xi). Finding the Plot both explores and helps to redress this critical neglect. The book brings together an international group of scholars to address the nature, effects and specific pleasures of consuming stories. If the central focus is on France and popular literary fiction, the book’s scope – like contemporary fiction itself – observes no national frontiers, and extends across a variety of media. The book addresses both the empirical question of which genres and types of text have been and are most “popular”, and the theoretical questions of how plots work, what pleasures they offer to readers, and why it matters that the plot should not be lost.

A Desert Named Peace written by Benjamin Claude Brower and has been published by Columbia University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2011 with History categories.

In the mid-nineteenth century, French colonial leaders in Algeria started southward into the Sahara, beginning a fifty-year period of violence. Lying in the shadow of the colonization of northern Algeria, which claimed the lives of over a million people, French empire in the Sahara sought power through physical force as it had elsewhere; yet violence in the Algerian Sahara followed a more complicated logic than the old argument that it was simply a way to get empire on the cheap. A Desert Named Peace examines colonial violence through multiple stories and across several fields of research. It presents four cases: the military conquests of the French army in the oases and officers' predisposition to use extreme violence in colonial conflicts; a spontaneous nighttime attack made by Algerian pastoralists on a French village, as notable for its brutality as for its obscure causes; the violence of indigenous forms of slavery and the colonial accommodations that preserved it during the era of abolition; and the struggles of French Romantics whose debates about art and politics arrived from Paris with disastrous consequences. Benjamin Claude Brower uses these different perspectives to reveal the unexpected causes of colonial violence, such as France's troubled revolutionary past and its influence on the military's institutional culture, the aesthetics of the sublime and its impact on colonial thinking, the ecological crises suffered by Saharan pastoralists under colonial rule, and the conflicting paths to authority inherent in Algerian Sufism. Directly engaging a controversial history, A Desert Named Peace offers an important backdrop to understanding the Algerian war for independence (1954-1962) and Algeria's ongoing internal war, begun in 1992, between the government and armed groups that claim to fight for an Islamist revolution.

This edited collection aims to examine the popularisation of science for children in Britain and France from the middle of the eighteenth century to the end of the Victorian period. It compares and contrasts for the first time popular science works published at the same time in the two countries, focusing both on non-fictional and fictional texts. Starting when children’s literature emerged as a genre to the end of the nineteenth century it addresses the ways in which popular science for children engaged with wider debates and issues, concerning such topics as gender or religion. Each individual essays brings home how children’s literature revealed contemporary tensions which professional scientists confronted. The wide range of scientific topics examined, from physics and astronomy to natural history and anthropology, offers a large spectrum of types of popular science works for children.

Interdisciplinary Essays on Cannibalism: Bites Here and There brings together a range of works exploring the evolution of cannibalism, literally and metaphorically, diachronically and across disciplines. This edited collection aims to promote a conversation on the evolution and the different uses of the tropes and figures of cannibalism, in order to understand and deconstruct the fascination with anthropophagy, its continued afterlife and its relation to different disciplines and spaces of discourse. In order to do so, the contributing authors shed a new light not only on the concept, but also propose to explore cannibalism through new optics and theories. Spanning 15 chapters, the collection explores cannibalism across disciplines and fields from Antiquity to contemporary speculative fiction, considering history, anthropology, visual and film studies, philosophy, feminist theories, psychoanalysis and museum practices. This collection of thoughtful and thought-provoking scholarly contributions suggests the importance of cannibalism in understanding human history and social relations.
