Comment la littérature africaine francophone se réinvente-t-elle au tournant du siècle ? Après le lyrisme de la Négritude et les désillusions des indépendances, la littérature africaine francophone affronte, à nouveau, la toujours troublante question de l'identité. Une question, que le roman congolais reformule, en opposant aux divers régimes de l'authenticité, celui du jeu permanent avec l'origine : la parade postcoloniale. D'un texte à l'autre, Sylvain Bemba, Henri Lopès, Sony Labou Tansi, Daniel Biyaouala et Alain Mabanckou donnent à voir des personnages en perpétuelle représentation : vrais faux dandys, cows-boys tropicaux, pseudo-antillais et parisiens loufoques, qui passent allègrement de l'Afrique aux Antilles via l'Europe. Tous manipulent les signes identitaires sur le mode de l'apparence, de l'ambiguïté. La parade postcoloniale devient à la fois mode de distinction et refus de la tyrannie des certitudes (identitaires, géographiques, littéraires, etc.).

Publié en anglais aux Cambridge University Press en 1996, cet ouvrage change notre perception de l'histoire " africaine " et " impériale ". Son auteur, Frederick Cooper, professeur d'histoire africaine à New York University, a rassemblé un large échantillon d'archives en français et en anglais pour mener à bien une authentique étude comparative des politiques coloniales vis-à-vis des enjeux du travail. Des années trente, où la question fut posée pour la première fois, à la fin des années cinquante où la décolonisation était bien entamée, il y dissèque le recrutement, le contrôle et l'institutionnalisation des forces africaines aux prises avec le monde du travail. Loin de se limiter aux questions du travail salarié, les débats parmi les dirigeants coloniaux ouvraient la porte à une discussion plus large au sujet des modèles sociaux et économiques pour un nouveau " colonialisme de progrès ", capables de formuler des défis aux régimes impériaux pendant et après la deuxième guerre mondiale. L'auteur analyse les diverses conceptions des politiques coloniales liées au travailleur africain et montre comment syndicats et politiciens africains utilisèrent le nouveau vocabulaire des changements sociaux pour revendiquer des salaires et des bénéfices égaux, et le partage du pouvoir. Ceci contribua à convaincre le pouvoir colonial que leur projet d'après-guerre de construire une Afrique " moderne " à l'intérieur de frontières coloniales était à la fois financièrement et politiquement irréaliste et impossible. A la fin d'une décennie d'intervention dans la complexité des sociétés africaines, la France et la Grande-Bretagne se retirèrent, en arguant qu'elles avaient rendu possible pour les Africains l'organisation du travail salarié et de la vie citadine à l'image des sociétés industrielles. En revanche, elles se défaussèrent des conséquences de leurs politiques sur les nouvelles élites africaines. Elles laissèrent sans réponse la question de savoir jusqu'où ces récentes politiques sociales correspondaient ou non au vécu des travailleurs et de leurs familles. Elles ne se prononcèrent pas sur la marge de manœuvre des gouvernements ou des mouvements sociaux africains quant à leurs manières propres de réorganiser le travail, la famille et la vie en société.

Recasting French literary history in terms of the cultures and peoples that interacted within and outside of France's national boundaries, this volume offers a new way of looking at the history of a national literature, along with a truly global and contemporary understanding of language, literature, and culture. The relationship between France's national territory and other regions of the world where French is spoken and written (most of them former colonies) has long been central to discussions of "Francophonie." Boldly expanding such discussions to the whole range of French literature, the essays in this volume explore spaces, mobilities, and multiplicities from the Middle Ages to today. They rethink literary history not in terms of national boundaries, as traditional literary histories have done, but in terms of a global paradigm that emphasizes border crossings and encounters with "others." Contributors offer new ways of reading canonical texts and considering other texts that are not part of the traditional canon. By emphasizing diverse conceptions of language, text, space, and nation, these essays establish a model approach that remains sensitive to the specificities of time and place and to the theoretical concerns informing the study of national literatures in the twenty-first century.

State Power, Stigmatization, and Youth Resistance Culture in the French Banlieues: Uncanny Citizenship foregrounds the literary, sociological, and political structures of urban literature in France. It uses postcolonial theory, sociology, and political philosophy to investigate the modalities surrounding the question of citizenship in a country where citizens of African descent are not only considered a threat to national identity, but also caught between inclusion and exclusion. By examining the literary, sociological, and political structures of urban literatures produced after the 2005 riots, this book interrogates the questions of citizenship, belonging, and coexistence in a context where literature from the "periphery" has become a site where "central" political power and "mainstream" French literary canons are contested. Moreover, these productions clearly reveal an unexplored correlation between geo-aesthetics and contemporary French national geopolitics. Ultimately, this book is a plea for a serious approach to social formation in postcolonial France in a way that transcends skin color, and instead is based on a shared colonial past, as well as current social disqualifications.

Migration is both a demographic and a cultural phenomenon. As such, it both reshapes the global village and subverts the all-encompassing vision of the city, a space split between the blending of all new cultures and the need felt by many migrants to maintain their traditions and thereby contribute to a multicultural mosaic. This series of essays explores how the concepts of the melting-pot and the mosaic have shaped the representation of Paris and Montreal in francophone literatures. Migrant movements to these cities from the Caribbean, the Maghreb, Sub-Saharan Africa, Quebec, Indochina, and the Indian Ocean have produced new groups of intersecting cultures. Under the dual influences of their native and host countries, migrants have produced an innovative and multifaceted literature that reflects their composite world-view. Their writing poses pressing questions of ethnicity, immigration, integration, and citizenship, and challenges longstanding notions both of the concept of the city and of how its spaces embody and articulate Frenchness in the face of ongoing change. Such shifts produce changes not only in the diasporic culture, but in the national culture as well, through creolization processes. These shifting identities increasingly destabilize current notions of national membership and social and cultural belonging, since we can no longer presume a direct correspondence between place, culture, language and identity. They also pose new questions of national identity and difference as the immigrant presence expands and inflects the cosmopolitan pluralism of today’s societies.

Pacifist Invasions is about what happens to the contemporary French lyric in the translingual Arabic context. Drawing on lyric theory, comparative poetics, and linguistics, it reveals three generic modes of translating Arabic poetics into French in works by Habib Tengour (Algeria), Edmond Jabès (Egypt), Salah Stétié (Lebanon), Abdelwahab Meddeb (Tunisia), and Ryoko Sekiguchi (Japan).

The enormous success of writers such as Teju Cole and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie demonstrates that African literatures are now an international phenomenon. But the apparent global legibility of a small number of (mostly Anglophone) writers in the diaspora raises the question of how literary producers from the continent, both past and present, have situated their work in relation to the world and the kinds of material networks to which this corresponds. This collection shows how literatures from across the African continent engage with conceptualizations of 'the world' in relation to local social and political issues. Focusing on a wide variety of geographic, historical and linguistic contexts, the essays in this volume seek answers to the following questions: What are the topographies of 'the world' in different literary texts and traditions? What are that world's limits, boundaries and possibilities? How do literary modes and forms such as realism, narrative poetry or the political essay affect the presentation of worldliness? What are the material networks of circulation that allow African literatures to become world literature? African literatures, it emerges, do important theoretical work that speaks to the very core of world literary studies today.

The figure of the dictator looms large in representations of postcolonial Africa. Since the late 1970s, writers, film-makers and theorists have sought to represent the realities of dictatorship without endorsing the colonialist cliches portraying Africans as incapable of self-government. Against the heavily-politicized responses provoked by this dilemma, Bishop argues for a form of criticism that places the complexity of the reader's or spectator's experiences at the heart of its investigations. Ranging across literature, film and political theory, this study calls for a reengagement with notions - often seen as unwelcome diversions from political questions - such as referentiality, genre and aesthetics. But rather than pit 'political' approaches against formal and aesthetic procedures, the author presents new insights into the interplay of the political and the aesthetic. Cecile Bishop is a Junior Research Fellow in French at Somerville College, Oxford.
