Even though there were relatively few people of color in postrevolutionary France, images of and discussions about black women in particular appeared repeatedly in a variety of French cultural sectors and social milieus. In Vénus Noire, Robin Mitchell shows how these literary and visual depictions of black women helped to shape the country's postrevolutionary national identity, particularly in response to the trauma of the French defeat in the Haitian Revolution. Vénus Noire explores the ramifications of this defeat in examining visual and literary representations of three black women who achieved fame in the years that followed. Sarah Baartmann, popularly known as the Hottentot Venus, represented distorted memories of Haiti in the French imagination, and Mitchell shows how her display, treatment, and representation embodied residual anger harbored by the French. Ourika, a young Senegalese girl brought to live in France by the Maréchal Prince de Beauvau, inspired plays, poems, and clothing and jewelry fads, and Mitchell examines how the French appropriated black female identity through these representations while at the same time perpetuating stereotypes of the hypersexual black woman. Finally, Mitchell shows how demonization of Jeanne Duval, longtime lover of the poet Charles Baudelaire, expressed France's need to rid itself of black bodies even as images and discourses about these bodies proliferated. The stories of these women, carefully contextualized by Mitchell and put into dialogue with one another, reveal a blind spot about race in French national identity that persists in the postcolonial present.

Subordination did not simply fade away in the aftermath of colonialism. Instead, this illuminating book shows, a host of subtle new techniques have arisen that dominate vast categories of people by rendering them silent. Kevin Olson investigates how contemporary societies silence the subaltern: sometimes a literal silencing, often a metaphor for other ways of making people unheard. Such forms of silence make some people invisible, push others to the margins, and devalue the voices and actions of still others. Subaltern Silence traces the development of these techniques to the early years of European colonialism, focusing on Haiti’s revolution and postcolonial trajectory. Exploring rich archives from Europe and the postcolonial world, Olson critiques fundamental modern institutions and technologies, such as the public sphere, the free press, and even progressively minded democratic revolution, as sites of exclusion. With the emergence of postcoloniality, he argues, subordination has become increasingly abstract, virtual, and symbolic. Nonetheless, it lies at the heart of contemporary racial politics, divides Global South from Global North, and allocates privileges and burdens in ways that are often scarcely perceptible. Engaging deeply with the thought of Gayatri Spivak and Michel Foucault, Subaltern Silence offers a new genealogy of colonialism and postcoloniality that is both historically informed and theoretically rich.

Fathers Daughters And Slaves written by Doris Y. Kadish 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 2012 with History categories.
Fathers, Daughters, and Slaves explores the unique contribution by French women writers to Haitian politics and culture during the early nineteenth century, when Haiti was on the verge of reestablishing slavery and when class, race, and gender identities were being renegotiated. It offers in-depth readings of works by Germaine de Staël, Claire de Duras, and Marceline Desbordes- Valmore, as well as two lesserknown but important writers, Charlotte Dard and Sophie Doin, all of whom were writers living in France commenting on Haiti from afar, and all of whom were staunch opponents of slavery. Exploring the similarities between the works of these French women and twentiethand twenty-first-century francophone texts, it offers a much-needed new voice to the exploration of colonial fiction, Caribbean writing, romanticism, and feminism, undercutting the neat distinctions between the cultures of France and its colonies, as well as nineteenth- and twentieth-century writing.

Retired since 1998, Little (French, Trinity College Dublin) continues his steady output of books by picking through a minefield of prejudice, myth, and stereotypes in French writing primarily from France and her former colonies in Africa and the West Indies. Beginning two and half centuries ago with the first French novel to sport a black hero, he explores representations of intimate relationships between characters Europeans labeled as black men and white women.

Ce roman raconte l'histoire émouvante et mouvementée d'une jeune Noire en France avant et pendant la Révolution française. Il s'inspire du roman Ourika de la duchesse de Duras, qui obtint au XIX° siècle dans l'Europe entière un immense succès. Lui-même était tiré de l'histoire vraie d'une jeune Sénégalaise qui, arrachée à son pays et élevée en France comme une aristocrate n'eut, à l'âge du mariage, d'autre issue, à cause de la couleur de sa peau, que le suicide. Jacques Ferran imagine de modifier le tragique destin de cette héroïne en faisant coïncider son adolescence avec les débuts de la Révolution française. Une révolution qui, plus favorable aux Noirs et aux femmes que l'Ancien Régime pouvait permettre à la jeune fille de s'y retrouver à l'aise puis de se mêler ardemment à ses tumultes et à ses polémiques. C'est ainsi que naquit Ourika-Révolution, riche d'histoire et de passion.
