Full textThe importance of travelling practice in Proconsular Africa is underlined by the density of the ancient road network in the province. The study of travel leads us to consider the romanisation from an other angle than the often pushed forward urban structures. Definitions of travel are numerous and reflect the extreme diversity of situations : discovery tour, pleasure trip, business or private travel. Besides, the African context leads to wonder about the seminomadism practice under the Roman Empire. Literary sources first echo official travel, discovery tours at the beginning of the Roman Empire, and a few travels of emperors in the province. Besides, the development of African latin literature from the II century increases the private travel stories, particularly with Apulée and later Augustin. In other respects, the study of the African epigraphic sources gives a special lighting on the identification of living and dead travellers. The official and private practices of travelling don't have the same aims and involve different means. But all those practices of travelling serve convey the romanisation. So, at the end of Antiquity, the bounds of travelling in the Proconsular have become the place of promotion for the Roman politic order, adorned with the attributes of the Christian religion

Full textThis research is aimed by the project of defining the poetic of the literary genre of travel account, between the end of eighteenth century and the end of nineteenth century. This work stands at the crossing between literature, anthropology and history of ideas. It shows the existence of travel discourses on Subsaharian Africa, which inscribes against the stream in relation to the majority of the other discourses produced and diffused in Europe during the analysed period. This thesis is focused on the different phases of writing, publication and reception of François Le Vaillant, Carlo Piaggia and Mary Kingsley's works. Coming from different European countries, according to their pluridisciplinary formation, these tree travellers' works represent a subject of research which proves extremely pertinent in a interdisciplinary analysis, and which underlines a new approach of a kind of discourse often neglected
Lancerotto, Maria. "Voyageurs français de l'entre-deux-guerres en Afrique Equatoriale Française." Paris 3, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA030029.
Full textBetween 1919 and 1939, the French Equatorial Africa, partly explored and pacified, becomes a popular holiday resort for french people, opening to tourism and journalism. As a result not only soldiers or explorers were able to write about the colony: journalists, writers, travellers and colonials also contributed with their stories to develop a certain idea of these territories. Reviewing on their account the themes of propaganda or anti-colonialism, these witnesses, tell us about different ways of thinking and judging the colonisation during its period of maximum stability. This study explores a number of written evidences of a sample of french society who travelled to FEA in- between the two wars. The intent of the author is to analyse this literature and to extrapolate some images in order to rise some points of the french colonisation in Africa

Full textThe interest of this PhD-thesis originates from the conjunction of two important questions, the first one being that of representation of Africans in literature - and especially in travel literature and in photos. The thesis aims to show that the representation of the "other" is not always as fixed and as clear as one might think. Parting from different theories of the perception of the "other", we aim to show that the representation of the "other" in these illustrated travel books is very often ambiguous. The second is a question of communication and deals with the combined usage of different types of media (text, photographs, drawings, layout, peritexte (Gérard Genette). It originates thus from intermediality. The work aims to clarify the role of these different types of media in respect to the representation of Africans. Does the combination of these different types of media draw a picture of Africans which is different from that depicted in the text or in the image on its own? It is interesting to look at the added value which might be achieved by the combination of these elements. Does the added value arise from newly created dimensions which could not have been achieved by any one form of media on their own?

Full textThis thesis is registered in the perspective of a strategic diagnosis of the Transport sector Intercity Road of travellers (TRIV) in West Africa (case of Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger). The transport organization and the functioning of enterprises of the sector to the yardstick of globalization and the modernization is still inadequate. There are many difficulties identified at various levels of the system thus hindering the economic development of the sector. For West Africa, many studies and research have already been carried out on the system of urban transport and on the transport of goods with diagnostics and recommendations . However, the sub-sector of TRIV also has its importance and it should be taken into account in the schema of sub-regional integration in Africa. Our research shows that the analysis of TRIV must not be limited to its aspects regulatory and institutional and that it must integrate the companies as the key elements of the development of the sector. These are now faced the challenge of competition on the markets both the domestic that sub-regional passenger transport. The modernization of the sector and its subsequent development involve adjustments of craft businesses, changes in the organization and the conditions of operation of this activity. Our approach addresses in the first time, the current configuration of the market of TRIV The analysis highlights the indispensable complementarity of the offer of transport companies and craftsmen carriers. From this finding, models of potential strategies are developed for firms forced to competitiveness. However, in light of the organization of the market of TRIV in Niger, of the multiplicity of enterprises and absence of data, we defined groups contrasting of enterprises, the consolidation at from the technical characteristics, organizational (types of vehicles used, organization of the services) and the geographical (lines served). This approach has allowed us to highlight the specificities of links in the market but also the major imbalances existing in the field of service in the main areas. Through the models of strategies developed, our ambition is to give a reference framework for companies from which and taking into account their internal resources, they organize their strategy. These companies should be able to achieve in the framework of a public policy of transport taking into account the expectations of key actors

Full textMaking use of the methods from social history of sciences, from epistemology of geography, from anthropology and from sociology of interaction, this work reconsiders the History of Africa's exploration. The scientific fundaments of the exploration project are studied here, along with practical modalities of exploratory travel and with the forms of its reception in european societies. Tje thesis bases itself upon a corpus of travel reports and publicatins from different geographical societies. These institutions have set frames to run the journey, validation's procedures and data processing, in order to draw the map. The construction of geographical knowledge is considered as the result of a task sharing between armchair geographers and explorers. The interactions and experience at play in the field, where the traveler is physycally and emotionnally involved, along with his cultural and social identity, also shape the processes of the investigation

Full textThe results reported from the first explorations of the African continent by the famous travelers of the nineteenth century, coincide with the emergence of an adventure literature of which Jules Verne will remain the most illustrious author. The Extraordinary Voyages, evocative title given to the series of novels in which the author sets out to conquer the geographical space on a global scale, begin in 1863 with the publication of Cinq Weeks in balloon, novel in which the exploration of the African continent is the main theme. This first trip, which is described as the most curious and useful of imaginary journeys, summarizes the great discoveries of the most famous travelers. The immediate success of this first trip combining imagination and truth, puts in perspective a complete work of which part is rooted in the heart of the African continent. Africa, land to civilize and still primitive in many respects, appears as a vast laboratory where explorers and scientists of all kinds come to seek answers to the many questions raised by the march of progress. Then, between information and imagination, the Extraordinary Voyages testify to the desire to tell the experience of the famous explorers who roam Africa, and who furrow it in search of a knowledge that only the voyage can make emerge. The African continent is thus at the center of the Vernian work, and has multiple meanings that lie between imaginary and historical, geographical, scientific, but also cultural reality. Because, what the Voyages bring to the fore, are also the cultural shocks that occur during the great explorations of the interior, but above all, they raise a certain number of questions relating to the legacy that the writer whose predictions still make the news today

Full textThe present study explores how reference is constructed in the discursive genre specifiedas travel narrative. A hallmark of the genre is a common posture towards the production of thetext where enunciator-travellers are placed in an asymmetric context between language and cultureand have to give an account of realia (natural species, artefacts, social practices) which are not systematically lexicalized in their own languages or for which they do not have naming competence. They thus tend to present referencing as problematic. In order to describe how incontext enunciators manage to reference “against all odds”, the present dissertation analysesnaming and categorization procedures of exotic realia in a corpus of travel accounts by Frenchtravellers to Black Africa in the colonial period. A discursive semantics is set up based on thepatterning of the three orders, language, textuality and discourse. The present work first builds upa typology of naming patterns implemented in the corpus and is able to show that discursivepractices concerned with naming rest on the language as a system. This first referencing procedureis followed by sequential operations to delimit categories; textual constraints on this secondprocedure are shown up. There follows the analysis of the discursive effects that result from theuse of such linguistic resources and this is done through articulation with the generic dimensionand the enunciative and ideological stances. Finally the analytic tools that have been devised areapplied to the characterization of specific discursive processes in two contrasting texts from thecorpus
Leno, Sâa. "L'épisode africain dans 'Voyage au bout de la nuit' de Céline." Besançon, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003BESA1008.
Full textThis study relates to the african episode of 'Voyage at the end of the night' of Céline. After a brief analysis of the african universe whe it lays a particular stress on nature, paludism and the space framework, il leads to the colonial society. It acts on this level, of an approach of the social strtification on Bambola-Bragamance. Shows that this colony was governed by a pyramidal structure energy of the Governon to the natives While passing through the soldiers, the civils servant and the tradesmen. Then, it puts forward the topic relating to colonialism, in particular the trade, approached in its forms official and cladestine, justicen the criticism of Catholic Church and the disintegration of the african traditions, before elucading the fiction and the reality in this episode. This study makes a bringing together between the experiments of Celine and the african adventure of the narrator and it leads to the report according to which it is about a transposition of the history lived by the author himself. The transposition is at the level of the references relatinf to the framwork of the account, with the route of the narrator, the african stay and onomastics used. Lastly, it makes a synthetic approach relating to the representation of Bambola-Bragamance, the human condition through this episode and the cincidence of the publication of 'Voyage at the end of the night' with the first steps of the movement of Negritude
Alves, Vaz Paulo. "Imaginaire mythique de l’Afrique subsaharienne à l’âge classique." Thesis, Paris 4, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA040201.
Full textDifferent travellers decided to visit and explore Africa either on their own or because of government, religious or commercial obligations. They had various motivations : some were really interested in this continent and wanted to know more about it, others went there to satisfy a desire of discovery and to share unknown lands for trade. As soon as they arrived visitors were struck by the difference - in physionomy - between the African population and the rest of the world. Travel stories - reports of bygone days - bring back the African peoples who were seing white people for the first time. The discovery of a new world, its exploration and literature are the root of the fascination for Africa. In this context the representation and the enchantment - that Sub-Saharan Africa aroused in the collective imagination of the Classical Age travellers - will be studied. Africa has become over the centuries a name which sounds mysterious, suggesting to the minds of men a stream of unusual landscapes. Myths were born from the observation of unknown lands through writing. In fact thanks to different travellers from previous centuries Africa shows in the collective imagination of Europeans from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries two mythical and real pictures, opposed but complementary. This continent is described as a huge desert territory filled with fabulous beings where precious stones and gold grow or are washed away by the rivers flooded after rain. Africa is then described as a contintent with poor, ignorant, superstitious peoples : savages and cannibals. Everything looks different for travellers : men, civilisations, plants and lands so myths linked with Africa sprouted from them. The symbolic value of the myth is transferred in travel books and provide a common background of marvellous pictures

Full textThe theme of the Atlantic Slave Trade, a prolific one in European literatures, has scarcely been dealt with in African fiction. This paradox calls for an explanation. If few writers have felt it fit to explore this fundamental historical episode, those who did do so, have violated an unprecedented taboo. These writers, who rank amongst the greatest ones in African literature, include such as prominent literary figures as Nigerian writer Wole Soyinka who was the first African writer to be awarded a Nobel Prize for Literature in 1986, Ghanaian novel-writer and playwright Ama Ata Aidoo and her fellow-countrymen Ayi Kwei Armah and Yaw M. Boateng – or even Chinua Achebe in his novel Things Fall Apart. They echo the writings of 18th century writer Olaudah Equiano (also known as Gustavus Vassa), their forerunner from Nigeria… These writers have all focused their works on themes linked to the Atlantic slave trade and they have analyzed this reality as a trauma which writing must heal and a crisis of civilization that still has echoes in our modern culture, rather than a remote accident of history. This work traces the literary approaches to the theme of slavery, more specifically the metaphoric re-enactment of the original crime: the betrayal of African by their own countrymen

Full textFrance is the industrialized country most assigned by import malaria with around 4735 imported and registered cases in 2016. Migrant travelers from malaria-affected countries residing in France account for 82.2% of all malaria cases. malaria infections. This thesis mainly seeks to analyze the issue of the use of malaria risk prevention among migrant travelers from sub-Saharan African countries in Bordeaux. Based on direct observations and individual interviews with different actors, this research shows the heterogeneity of situations of exposure to malaria risk during temporary return to the country of origin. This risk depends on the experiential and socio-economic situations, as well as the burdens it is supposed to assume. When these burdens are significant, the migrant traveler tends to prioritize the risks, with a non-prioritization of malaria control in favor of the risk of “toubabisation”, socially less accepted. The non-prioritization of the risk of malaria is accentuated by a banal, ordinary and daily perception of malaria in the context of migration and by the non-reimbursement of chemoprophylaxis by the National Health Insurance Fund. This work shows that the non-use of chemoprophylaxis is influenced by the lack of experience of malaria in France and severe malaria in the country of origin. Often, the experience of this disease must be experienced and perceived in the host country to induce a change of perception and therefore a future use of prevention. Therapeutically, this thesis highlights delayed diagnosis of malaria in general practice. These delays are caused by the lack of association of the “return fever” and symptoms associated with malaria, and by its “exoticism” in France. As such, this research contributes to reflections in the fields of anthropology of health and anthropology of travel risk, with the example of migrant travelers exposed to malaria risk
Garycka-Balmitgere, Anna. "L'Afrique vue de Pologne : voyages et images littéraires." Thesis, Strasbourg, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013STRAC003.
Full textThe relations between Poland and Africa are considered in this thesis in a historical and comparative approach in order to contribute to the studies of the image of Africa in European literatures. As a link to the geopolitical situation of Poland the questioning is articulated about the image of a colonised space created in the literature of a country not implicated in colonisation. Three kinds of facts are analysed. First, travels by the Polish in Africa, then, stories created as a result of these travels, and finally the images that exist in Polish imagery with their literary, ideological or political uses. The relations between Polish writers and Africa are studied in an extended corpus which refers to writers of the colonial period (Joseph Conrad and Henryk Sienkiewicz) but is more focused on the decolonisation period from 1950 to 1980, where Ryszard Kapuściński’s writings are put in perspective by a number of secondary writers, reporters, physicians, missionaries or diplomats. The African alterity is also approached in its specular dimension as a mirror through which the Polish identity is observed and defined. The Polish image of Africa comes into view as a paradox since it simultaneously is contrary to Western images and a reproduction of them. A place of deep literary roots, Africa becomes in Polish literature also a place of reflection which – more than some politic ulterior motives or hidden culpabilities characteristic of imperial powers – reveals the union of destinies

Full textDuring the XVIIIth century the existence of so-called "white negroes" roused the curiosity of scientists. Most of their sources came from travelogues in which the strange phenomenon of "white" children born of black parents was first mentioned. Scientists tried to formulate their own theories about the causes of albinoism, based on these accounts which were very difficult to prove. One such theory held that albinos were a white race living in the centre of Africa. Another saw albinoism as an illness. Other theories claimed it was a side-effect of leprosy or even resulting from a flaw in the sperm of some black-people. In spite of these conflicting opinions, which appear ridiculous today, the scientists of the enlightenment began the study of the phenomenon of heredity

Full textThe use of the information technologies in the air transport is not a recent phenomenon. Indeed, the electronic reservation appeared in this sector during the second part of the years 1960. The movement was accelerated by the computers' progresses and the air transport deregulation decided by the United States of America in 1978 with the Airline Deregulation Act. The information technologies are now an element of the air transports' dynamism and the central issue of the competition in this industry. Thus, the deregulation, such as we live it at the present time, would certainly not have been possible without the development of the information technologies. However, the information technologies were also used to distort the air transports' competition and that caused many concerns in the sector. In such circumstances, an intervention in favor of the information technologies' regulation was planed. The competition's authorities answered the first difficulties related to the use of the information technologies in the air transport by applying the competition's general law supplemented thereafter, by a specific framework. Today, the information technologies cause new problems in the air transports' competition and the competition's authorities remain very attentive

Full textVolume 1: Published in 1692, Breve e Succinta Relatione del Viaggio nel Regno di Congo […] by the Capuchin priest Girolamo Merolla da Sorrento is an account about a mission of evangelization that took place on the Kingdom of Kongo, Angola and other surrounding areas, which were almost unexplored during that time. The density of the topics the book deals with, as well as its linguistic and stylistic opacity required a philological and historical assessment to prepare the way to understand its content, which have remained almost unknown or succinctly analysed until today. Take into consideration the mentioned aspects, a critical edition will be the task of this first volume.Volume 2: After carrying out, in volume 1, the critical edition of Breve e Succinta Relatione del Viaggio nel Regno di Congo […]. This second volume pretends to contextualize the heterogeneous and confused elements within the account. Besides the methodological considerations, this research develops several points of interest through its six chapters. This dissertation introduces important information about the growth of Christianity in Africa by means of the Missio Antiqua of Capuchins, which was promoted by the Sacra Congregatio de Propaganda Fide. Subsequently, it helps to grasp the imbrications set up between the Lusitanian Colonial Empire and the dynasties of the Kingdom of Kongo. Successively, it recounts the journey, by see and by land, carried out by Merolla. The account relates his departure from Naples in 1682, the development of his mission in Africa, his return to his homeland and his second departure to Africa. His journey gave rise to the recounting of astonishing episodes, significant ethnographic descriptions of human categories, as well as explanations on the huge animal variety and environmental diversity. In addition, the reasoning goes toward the encounter of two different cultures and two opposing moral orders will provoke troubles, misunderstandings and culture-centric reactions. Finally, a sombre motif appears within the account: the rejection of the other, accompanied by the colonial exploitation of raw materials and the Atlantic Slave Trade

Full textThe narrative of the British mission to Theodore, king of Abyssinia, published in 1869, has never been translated into French previously. The author, Hormuzd Rassam, an iraki born in Mosul, is first assistant to the political resident in Aden, when he is sent by the British government, in 1864, as a special envoy, to king Theodore of Abyssinia to negociate the liberation of three British citizens, a consul and two missionaries, detained by the Negus. Rassam fails in his mission, and spends two years in chains in the fortress-prison of Magdala ; he is liberated by the British forces at the end of the Abyssinian campaign. Compared to other works on Abyssinia published at the time in England and France, Rassam's narrative is original. The critics underline the author's extremely favourable views on Abyssinian people, and his absence of prejudice. Rassam's attitude, neither condescendent nor paternalistic, differs from that of European travellers of the period. Another original aspect of Rassam's work is the character of king Theodore, Theodore, monster and hero of romance altogether, whose letters to the author and personality give the narrative a pathetic quality. One chapter of the introduction is a survey of the narratives on Abyssinia in France and in England at the times of the Abyssinian complication

Full textAt the very beginning of the XXe century, in a heavy colonial setting, two German – Carl Velten and Heinrich Brode – released the first travelogues ever written in an African language (Arabic excepted) : Kiswahili. Born between orality and textuality, between arabic and latin scripts, the texts bear influences of both Swahili and colonial worlds. The Ph D. Offers the first French translation of the texts (Maisha excepted). Beside from the translation, the analysis’ part – at a crossroad between four languages – also crosses history and ethnology. Its main axis remains comparative literature with a strong structuralist frame. It deals with three major questions : do the African travelogues cast a new light on European explorations writings as a literary genre ? How does one translate the Self and the Other through one’s own language ? Was “Kiswahili on the road”, spoken as it was all along the old caravan tracks, able to bring forth literature, as a lingua franca has never done, and is its influence still visible up to nowadays ?

Full textThe thesis describes the work of Isabelle Eberhardt, a travel writer who explores Algeria and Tunisia between 1897 and 1904. The establishment of the original edition of her texts presents several problems considering that quite a number of publishers modified them. The analysis of the editions that are available today and the consultation of manuscripts retained in the Archives nationales d'outre-mer in Aix-en-Provence, allowed to obtain some helpful clarification on this subject, even if the situation remains delicate. Isabelle Eberhardt travels to the islamic Maghreb with the intention of living in Algeria for good, in the desire to construct her new identity, write publishable texts, learn more about local traditions. The diversity of projects means that there is a personal involvement as well a literary and scientific intention. The research method used by our writer during her journeys has been investigated and summerized by the alternation of engagement and estrangement. Eberhardt's poetics is equally clear and it is based on the valorization of the lieu's vitality as well as on the definition of an existential and living space. The texts are the product of a formation process knowledge-based and with a literary purpose. They have been analyzed with a critical and interpretative approach. Isabelle Eberhardt's experience and the values that it promotes make possible a rapprochement with the studies exploring connections between literature and geography

According to the ethngrapher all aspects described in his travel book as manners and customs, rites and apparent sources of beliefs, exploitation of magic knouledges and resorts to mythical survivals deserve to be taken into account, for they represent basis from which the africa black explains and integrates his naturel environment but also throngh which be states his attachment to his origins. According to the poet the travel throngh the complex circonvolutions of these irrational wealths, beyond the passion for myths and cultures unknoun of that time, becomes a means of being objective towards the rational logic and to reach a better acquaintance of oneself and the then - a poetic experimentation that he carries on even in his dreams (image of the ethnographe

Full textIn this study, we felt it necessary to go back to the oral, universal and linguistic origins of the french revolution; these origins are at level of speech both as an endogenus and exogenus sign. The tale is still at the origin of linguistic exchange between the generations both dead and alive; it denunciates social situations and regulates tensions. The tale also acts on reality always translating it according to the satisfaction of a need. The revolution is the best example of this process

Full textFrom travel writing to colonial European novels, Africa has always been used to affirm European values more than to show African realities. What values emerge then from the discourse on sub-Saharan Africa conveyed by the novels for young people published in France and Germany between 1991 – end of the Apartheid – and 2010 – 50th anniversary of the African Independences? How do these novels portray sub-Saharan Africa? And what self-images of Europeans appear through these images of Africa? Many studies insist on the persistence of the colonialist imagination in European cultural productions. This work looks at the extent to which many novels for young people try to distance themselves from the colonial heritage, or to criticize it, and to encourage intercultural understanding between Europeans and Africans and raise awareness of African socio-economic problems. These “good intentions” regularly run into limits and paradoxes. This gives rise to a gap between the values explicitly defended by the texts and those, less praiseworthy, that the texts convey involuntarily. Through a corpus of more than 120 novels for young people about sub-Saharan Africa published in France and Germany, this work identifies the narratological manifestations of this gap and explores ways to reduce it
Angefangen von historischen Reiseberichten bis hin zu den Kolonialromanen steht Afrika in der europäischen Literatur eher als Sinnbild für europäische Werte als für afrikanische Realitäten. Welche Werte wurden zwischen 1991 (dem Ende der Apartheid) und 2010 (dem fünfzigsten Jubiläum der Dekolonisation) im Afrikadiskurs der Kinder- und Jugendromane in Frankreich und Deutschland vermittelt? Welche Afrikabilder überliefern diese Romane? Und vor allem: welches Selbstbildnis der Europäer offenbart sich durch diese Afrikabilder? Viele Studien haben gezeigt, dass der Einfluss des kolonialistischen Erbes in den kulturellen Produktionen Europas immer noch nicht gänzlich verschwunden ist. Diese Arbeit zeigt, dass viele der Kinder- und Jugendromane sich einerseits von genau diesem kolonialistischen Erbe distanzieren wollen oder es sogar anprangern, und versuchen damit interkulturelle Arbeit zu leisten. Diese Absicht entwickelt andererseits jedoch häufig ihre eigenen Paradoxe und stößt somit an ihre Grenzen. Das führt zu einer Abweichung zwischen den Werten die explizit, und jenen, die unwillkürlich von den Texten vermittelt werden. Anhand eines Korpus von mehr als 120 Kinder- und Jugendromanen aus Frankreich und Deutschland analysiert diese Arbeit die erzähltheoretischen Merkmale dieser Abweichung und erforscht Möglichkeiten, diese auf narratologischer Ebene zu beheben
