Abstract:
In addition to proposing a survey and subsequent analysis of the French-Algerian War in French-language comics, also known as bandes dessinées, published in Algeria, France, and Belgium since the 1960s, my dissertation investigates the ways in which this medium re-appropriates textual and iconographic source materials. I argue that the integration or citation of various sources by artists functions to confer a measure of historical accuracy on their representation of history, to constitute a collective memory as well as personal postmemories of the war, and to re-contextualize problematic imag

Soixante-dix ans après la fin de la guerre et alors que l’héritage immatériel de Vichy constitue aujourd'hui, selon Pierre Nora, un des principaux lieux de mémoire en France, la ville de Vichy continue d'être un non-lieu de mémoire.

Jusqu’au milieu du XXe siècle, la littérature kabyle fut essentiellement orale et s'exprimait principalement dans le genre poétique.

Plus qu’un art qui doit transfigurer le réel, la poésie kabyle a pour rôle de rendre ce réel, l’interpréter et le clarifier pour donner du sens aux événements historiques et politiques auxquels sont confrontés les hommes et les femmes

This research has been stimulated by the profound ambivalence which Jewish schools show in deciding whether or how to teach Jewish history. This ambivalence is first examined in the context of a philosophical analysis of the relationship between critical history and other forms of historical consciousness. Finding this approach deficient, a psychological examination of how Jewish students experience the study of Jewish history is proposed.

Collective memory is a socially shared representation of the past. History, contrastingly, strives to be an unbiased, objective, and critical account of the past.

After World War II, every country that had been touched by or involved in the war had to come to terms with its past.

From the 1960s onwards, Swiss artists and intellectuals challenged these myths by presenting alternative views of the Swiss past in their work.
