"African Francophone Writing" presents a comprehensive overview of
African writing in the Francophone literary world. It explores the
work of important classic and contemporary African writers from the
1950s to the present who, until recently, have received little
critical attention. The contributors view their subjects from a
diverse range of critical perspectives -- historical, thematic,
psychoanalytic, feminist and post-colonial -- to provide a variety
of theoretically sophisticated analyses of Francophone writing. A
comprehensive introduction and an extensive chronological table are
included.
African Francophone literature is rapidly becoming a major
discipline in universities in Britain and North America. This book
will provide much needed critical material for students at both
undergraduate and postgraduate level.
Well-known authors studied in this book include: Chraibi, Memmi
and Boudjedra in the Maghreb; Sembene, Kourouma and Adiaffi in
sub-Saharan Africa; Begag and Cherif from the 'Beur' community; and
women writers such as Debeche, Fall and Ba.]
