In The Author as Cannibal, Felisa Vergara Reynolds presents these textual revisions as figurative acts of cannibalism and examines how these literary cannibalizations critique colonialism and its legacy in each author's homeland. Reynolds focuses on four representative texts: Une tempeÌte (1969) by AimeÌ CeÌsaire, Le temps de Tamango (1981) by Boubacar Boris Diop, L'amour, la fantasia (1985) by Assia Djebar, and La migration des coeurs (1995) by Maryse CondeÌ. Though written independently in Africa and the Caribbean, these texts all combine critical adaptation with creative destruction in an attempt to eradicate the social, political, cultural, and linguistic remnants of colonization long after independence.The Author as Cannibal situates these works within Francophone studies, showing that the extent of their postcolonial critique is better understood when they are considered collectively. Crucial to the book are two interviews with Maryse CondeÌ, which provide great insight on literary cannibalism. By foregrounding thematic concerns and writing strategies in these texts, Reynolds shows how these re-writings are an underappreciated collective form of protest and resistance for Francophone authors"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 245-261) and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: "Almost the Same, but Not Quite" / "Almost the Same, but Not White"; or, The Author as Cannibal -- AimeÌ CeÌsaire's Une tempeÌte, Cannibalizing Shakespeare's The Tempest; or, Who's Laughing Now? -- Boubacar Boris Diop's Le temps de Tamango, a Postmodern Cannibalization; or, Penetrating "Fortress Europe" -- Assia Djebar's L'amour, la fantasia, a Historiographic Cannibalization; or, Dismantling/Decolonizing History -- Maryse CondeÌ's La migration des cÅurs, Cannibalizing Emily BronteÌ's Wuthering Heights; or, a Sublime Phagocytosis -- Conclusion: The Future of Literary Cannibalism; or, Addressing the Lingering Questions -- Appendix: Interviews with Maryse CondeÌ. 600 10 $a CeÌsaire, AimeÌ. $t TempeÌte. 600 10 $a Diop, Boubacar Boris, $d 1946- $t Temps de Tamango. 600 10 $a Djebar, Assia, $d 1936-2015. $t Amour, la fantasia. 600 10 $a CondeÌ, Maryse. $t Migration des cÅurs. 630 07 $a Amour, la fantasia (Djebar, Assia) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01392283 630 07 $a TempeÌte (CeÌsaire, AimeÌ) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01367081 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a West Indian literature (French) $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a African literature (French) $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Literature $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Postcolonialism in literature. 650 0 $a French literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a African literature (French) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799857 650 7 $a French literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00934688 650 7 $a Literature $x Adaptations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999955 650 7 $a Postcolonialism in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01073035 650 7 $a West Indian literature (French) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01173940 655 2 $a Interview $0 (DNLM)D017203 655 7 $a interviews. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aatgf300026392 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Interviews. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423832 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01986215 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Interviews. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Critiques litteÌraires. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000001939 655 7 $a Interviews. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000446 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117020124.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4036647A072811ED93C2E7E557ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
