What does it mean to be an African writer or a Francophone African
writer at the beginning of the twenty first century? How are
history, time and the body represented in contemporary Francophone
African fiction? How are authors working with, changing and
subverting the French language? How is 'Africa' represented in the
literary imagination? What discourses on Africa arise from literary
texts? This study takes stock of Francophone African literary
production at the end of the twentieth century, proposing that the
literatures are characterised by a remarkable vitality and
diversity. The work also introduces the new literary texts of the
1980s and 1990s, which have enriched world literature, and
considers how new subjects and thematic continuities are giving
rise to changing critical approaches and methodologies. (In French)
