Based on transnational France-Asia approaches, this book studies
Asian cultures once steeped in French civilisation but free of a
colonial mode in order to highlight the transliterary examples of
cultural transfer. This book is a pioneering study of the
Francophone phenomenon within the context of cultures categorised
as non-Francophone. Espousing a transcultural approach,
Francophonie and the Orient examines the emergence of French
heritage in the Far-East, the various forms of its manifestation,
and the modes of its identification. Several thematic signposts
guide the diverse pathways of the research. Firstly, the question
is posed as to whether colonisation is the ultimate coat of arms
for entry into Francophonie? Secondly, the book raises issues
relative to Asian Francophone works: the emergence of literatures
with French expression from Asian countries historically free of
French domination. Finally, the study reconfigures the Asian
Francophone heritage with new paradigms (transnational/global
studies), which redefine the frontiers of Francophonie in Asia.
