Abstract:
Cette étude comparative des œuvres d’Edouard Glissant et de Derek Walcott examine le devenir de la littérature antillaise ainsi que l’évolution des littératures dites postcoloniales.A partir des notions critiques d’esthétique, de politique, de culture et de stratégie discursive, nous avons examiné les œuvres de Glissant et celles de Walcott selon une perspective historique. En effet, la question de la place de l’Histoire étroitement liée à l’expérience personnelle des auteurs est au cœur des textes. Ils mettent en avant l’odyssée d’une Histoire antillaise marginale et fantasmée qui cherche à s

Abstract:
This thesis explores the function of the theatre in Derek Walcott's literary achievements. Focusing on the semiotic theories that characterize the study of drama as a literary text and as a staged text, the initial approach aims at creating a relationship between semiotics and postcolonial theories. In particular Pavis's concept of intercultural semiotics and Peter Brook's innovative visions about the regenerative function of the space of the theatre represent a useful theoretical basis to consider the specificity of postcolonial theatre as an innovative space, where new cultural meanings emer

Abstract:
This thesis analyses three of Derek Walcott's plays in the light of Wilson Harris's ideas of 'infinite rehearsal' and 'unfinished genesis.' The purpose of this thesis is to explore Walcott's definition of the artist and his relation to society in the context of decolonisation. Throughout the thesis the struggle against nihilism appears as a constant underlying goal that both writers relate to the essence of the Caribbean, as a symbol of survival and regenesis. The first part of the thesis offers a deep analysis of Harrisian concepts of literature and its connection to reality, and an explorati

Abstract:
Derek Walcott est né en 1930 à Sainte Lucie, petite île perdue dans l’archipel des Caraïbes. Son œuvre poétique et théâtrale est à la conjonction de deux influences majeures : l’une est héritée du colonialisme britannique, la seconde lui vient de son ascendance africaine.J’ai essayé, dans mon travail, de toujours garder en mémoire cette ambivalence, voire cet écartèlement, que Walcott revendique puisqu’il se définit comme le divided child. L’œuvre de Walcott est multiple. Néanmoins, c’est son rapport au Temps, à l’Histoire et à la création picturale qui m’ont paru essentiels. Dans le premier c

Abstract:
This thesis examines place in the poetry of Derek Walcott. Through the close reading of a number of key topoi in Walcott's poetry, this thesis investigates the meanings that Walcott associates with different places. Threaded through these investigations, and forming the main argument, this thesis asserts that Walcott privileges place over space. Walcott rejects 'space' as an invention and abstract 'design' associated with colonial dominion and with neocolonial practices. For Walcott, space, as an abstraction, disavows local experience. Because of this, privileging space knowingly or unknowingl
