Literature in French outsider Europe 340-FP1-2LFP

The Francophone Literature outside Europe prenents some chosen aspects concerning Francophony basing on the examples of masterpieces. We discuss such issues like négritude, antillanité, créolisation, minor literature, and others. We look to the differencies in French language (joual, créol, pataouette).
The lectures concentrate on the areas of Equatorial Africa and Sahel, North Africa, Carribean Islands, Indian Ocean islands, as well as the Far East countires.

Prerequisites (description)

The aim of the course is to familiarise the students with the vast notion of francophony as the institution body, but, first of all, as the literary phenomenon.
