    "Cet ouvrage élucide l'écriture de l'espace existentiel et identitaire dans des oeuvres de Mongo Beti, Ahmadou Kourouma, Aminata Sow Fall et Patrick Chamoiseau. Il souligne la mise en scène d'une polarité spatiale, ses modalités et ses aboutissements. L'intérêt d'une telle polarité est qu'elle se joue soit dans l'espace urbain, comme c'est le cas chez Aminata Sow Fall et Patrick Chamoiseau, soit dans un jeune État-nation postcolonial/une communauté au sein desquels le discours identitaire ethnique ou clanique prend le pas sur l'identité nationale ou moderniste dans le cas d'Ahmadou Kourouma et de Mongo Beti. Son auteur notera, cependant, que si le but de cette polarisation spatiale revalorise une certaine pratique identitaire socioculturelle dont les progressistes veulent se détourner, ou qui se perd dans la vague de l'étatisation des nations nouvellement indépendantes, un troisième espace naît de cette dichotomisation spatiale. Il sera le lieu du dépassement des discours aux imaginaires divergents et prendra la forme de l'hybride linguistique dans Les Soleils des indépendances, de la poétique de la réconciliation à travers Solibo Magnifique et L'appel des arènes, et de la quête d'un autre espace existentiel anonyme dans Mission terminée. Ainsi, le modèle de la valorisation d'un espace identitaire est transcendé par un autre paradigme relationnel."--Back cover This book provides a critical analysis of the representation of existential and identity space in Aminata Sow Fall, Mongo Beti, Ahmadou Kourouma and Patrick Chamoiseau. It emphasizes the staging of a spatial polarity and its transcending through linguistic hybridity, the poetics of reconciliation and the quest for another alternative space. Indeed, these authors practice a writing that values an identity space for the most part. However, it ultimately enshrines the need to transcend the paradigm of shocks of divergent and spatially polarized identities.--Translation by l'Harmattan: www.editions-harmattan.fr/index.asp

    "Recent debates about the Anthropocene have prompted a re-negotiation of the relationship between human subjectivity and nonhuman matter within a wide range of disciplines. This collection builds on the assumption that our understanding of the nonhuman world is bound up with the experience of space: thinking about and with nonhuman spaces destabilizes human-scale assumptions. Literary form affords this kind of nonanthropocentric experience; one role of the critic in the Anthropocene is to foreground the function of space and description in challenging the conventional link between narrative and human (inter)subjectivity. Bringing together new formalism, ecocriticism, and narrative theory, the included essays demonstrate that literature can transgress the strong and long-established boundary of the human frame that literary and narrative scholarship cling to. The focus is firmly on the contemporary, but with strategic samplings in earlier cultural texts (the American transcendentalists, modernist fiction) that anticipate present-day anxieties about the nonhuman, while at the same time offering important conceptual tools for working through them"--

    Out of Bounds focuses on the crucial role that conceptions of iconic colonial Indian spaces--jungles, cantonments, cities, hill stations, bazaars, clubs--played in the literary and social production of British India. Author Alan Johnson illuminates the geographical, rhetorical, and ideological underpinnings of such depictions and, from this, argues that these spaces operated as powerful motifs in the acculturation of Anglo-India. He shows that the bicultural, intrinsically ambivalent outlook of Anglo-Indian writers is acutely sensitive to spatial motifs that, insofar as these condition the idea of home and homelessness, alternately support and subvert conventional colonial perspectives. Colonial spatial motifs not only informed European representations of India, but also shaped important aesthetic notions of the period, such as the sublime. This book also explains how and why Europeans' rhetorical and visual depictions of the Indian subcontinent, whether ostensibly administrative, scientific, or aesthetic, constituted a primary means of memorializing Empire, creating an idiom that postcolonial India continues to use in certain ways. Consequently, Johnson examines specific motifs of Anglo-Indian cultural remembrance, such as the hunting memoir, hill station life, and the Mutiny, all of which facilitated the mythic iconography of the Raj. He bases his work on the premise that spatiality (the physical as well as social conceptualization of space) is a vital component of the mythos of colonial life and that the study of spatiality is too often a subset of a focus on temporality. Johnson reads canonical and lesser-known fiction, memoirs, and travelogues alongside colonial archival documents to identify shared spatial motifs and idioms that were common to the period. Although he discusses colonial works, he focuses primarily on the writings of Anglo-Indians such as Rudyard Kipling, John Masters, Jim Corbett, and Flora Annie Steel to demonstrate how conventions of spatial identity were rhetorically maintained--and continually compromised. All of these considerations amplify this book's focus on the porosity of boundaries in literatures of the colony and of the nation. Out of Bounds will be of interest to not only postcolonial literary scholars, but also scholars and students in interdisciplinary nineteenth-century studies, South Asian cultural history, cultural anthropology, women's studies, and sociology

    In 1960s Egypt a group of writers exploded onto the literary scene, transforming the aesthetic landscape. Space in Modern Egyptian Fiction explores how this literary generation presents a marked shift in the representation of rural, urban and exilic space, reflecting a disappointment with the project of the postcolonial nation-state in Egypt. Combining a sociological approach to literature with detailed close readings, Yasmine Ramadan explores the spatial representations that embodied this shift within the Egyptian literary scene and the disappearance of an idealized nation in the Egyptian novel. This study provides a robust examination of the emergence and establishment of some of the most significant writers in modern Egyptian literature, and their influence across six decades, while also tracing the social, economic, political and aesthetic changes that marked this period in Egypt's contemporary history.--

    Castles play an integral part in Malory's Morte Darthur; Camelot, Tintagel, Joyous Gard, and Dover, for example, are the crucial backdrop to the action and both host and shape the story as it moves through them. But despitethis, Malory's castles have received limited scholarly attention. As the first monograph to look extensively at either castles or space in Malory, this book aims to fill that gap. It reads the Morte through its castles - their architecture, structural and symbolic significance, and geographical locations, together with their political, communal, ritual, domestic, and martial functions. The book also traces the mutual development of space and identity in the text, looking at Malory's Arthurian community in and around castle space, both as individuals and as a group; for example, it considers Arthur's political success through his use of space, and shows how crucial Camelot and its hall are to the fellowship of knights. Overall, the volume suggests a better understanding of the community's central organising body, the Round Table, and offers important re-readings of a number of episodes and characters

    Radical Romantics is about utopias and failed utopias, about cities that are palimpsests, and about the unwieldy span of the ocean. From William Blake's visionary poetry to Lord Byron's Eastern romances, from prophetic pamphlets to travel narratives, texts of the Romantic era make use of imaginative spaces to reveal the contours and limits of territorial sovereignty. In doing so, they raise fundamental questions about our understanding of both territorial and imagined space. What are the means by which people can conceive of geographical space without resorting to the terms of nationalism? Is it possible to imagine a space beyond territory, as movement itself? How can we articulate the overlap between mapped and lived space? Key Features. Engages with the critical frameworks of cultural geography, cartography, and the burgeoning field of oceanic studies Reformulates theories of colonization and empire in the Romantic period Puts canonical poetry in dialogue with travel tales and prophetic tracts

    "Cet ouvrage élucide l'écriture de l'espace existentiel et identitaire dans des oeuvres de Mongo Beti, Ahmadou Kourouma, Aminata Sow Fall et Patrick Chamoiseau. Il souligne la mise en scène d'une polarité spatiale, ses modalités et ses aboutissements. L'intérêt d'une telle polarité est qu'elle se joue soit dans l'espace urbain, comme c'est le cas chez Aminata Sow Fall et Patrick Chamoiseau, soit dans un jeune État-nation postcolonial/une communauté au sein desquels le discours identitaire ethnique ou clanique prend le pas sur l'identité nationale ou moderniste dans le cas d'Ahmadou Kourouma et de Mongo Beti. Son auteur notera, cependant, que si le but de cette polarisation spatiale revalorise une certaine pratique identitaire socioculturelle dont les progressistes veulent se détourner, ou qui se perd dans la vague de l'étatisation des nations nouvellement indépendantes, un troisième espace naît de cette dichotomisation spatiale. Il sera le lieu du dépassement des discours aux imaginaires divergents et prendra la forme de l'hybride linguistique dans Les Soleils des indépendances, de la poétique de la réconciliation à travers Solibo Magnifique et L'appel des arènes, et de la quête d'un autre espace existentiel anonyme dans Mission terminée. Ainsi, le modèle de la valorisation d'un espace identitaire est transcendé par un autre paradigme relationnel."--Back cover This book provides a critical analysis of the representation of existential and identity space in Aminata Sow Fall, Mongo Beti, Ahmadou Kourouma and Patrick Chamoiseau. It emphasizes the staging of a spatial polarity and its transcending through linguistic hybridity, the poetics of reconciliation and the quest for another alternative space. Indeed, these authors practice a writing that values an identity space for the most part. However, it ultimately enshrines the need to transcend the paradigm of shocks of divergent and spatially polarized identities.--Translation by l'Harmattan: www.editions-harmattan.fr/index.asp
