Akinwande, Pierre. "Du concept de négritude à celui de francophonie." Thesis, Paris Est, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PEST0016.
Full textThe unfolding interplay in recent times of two cultural concepts, Negritude and Francophonie, is the subject of our study which is both historical and a synthesis, having as leading authors, Leopold Sedar Senghor, Aime Cesaire and Leon-Gontran Dramas. Besides these French and Negro-African poets, there are other French and francophone elder statesmen who have worked towards promoting the values of cultural hybrid. These include French presidents Charles de Gaulle, Giscard d’Estaing, François Mitterrand, Jacques Chirac, African heads of State, notably Hamani Diori (Niger), Habib Bourguiba (Tunisia), Canadian and Quebecois prime ministers: P.E Trudeau, Brian Mulroney, Robert Bourassa, Hatsfield, Jean-Jacques Bertrand, two Secretaries general of the Francophonie, Boutros Boutros-Ghali, and Abdou Diouf, as well as European and African intellectuals such as Michel Tetu, Jean-Marc Leger, Andre Malraux, Alain Decaux, Xavier Deniau, Cyrille Sagbo. Major texts used for this thesis include, collection of poems, essays and plays produced by the Negritude school: Leopold Sedar Senghor, Aime Cesaire, and Leon-Gontran Damas, essays and speeches on Francophonie, as well as lots of critical works by authors from across the globe. The major focus of our thesis centers on the concern expressed by francophone peoples in different regions of the world about their cultural and linguistic interests and aspirations which are often marginalized or ignored within the global French family, making lots of European and African critics to question the rationale for Negritude and Francophonie in the 21st century
Coly, Alexandre. "La réception de la négritude en Afrique lusophone." Thesis, Clermont-Ferrand 2, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015CLF20011/document.
Full textThis thesis studies how Négritude was received in Portuguese-speaking Africa. In order to achieve this, the study addresses the origins of Négritude through the poets and writers of the Harlem Renaissance as well as René Maran’s Batouala. This permits a better discussion of the emergence of the concept of Négritude through Aimé Césaire, Léon Gontran Damas and Léopold Sedar Senghor. The study analyses the ideology of Négritude and the poets’ struggle for the freedom of black peoples and those oppressed by colonialism. Finally, this research examines the impact of the reception of Négritude on the African Lusophone literature of Agostinho Neto, José Craveirinha and Noémia de Sousa. Did it contribute to freeing the colonies of Portuguese-speaking Africa from colonial oppression and to strengthening the quest for identity? This study seeks to show that the humanism of Négritude returns us to a tribute to the human condition and the promise of possibility
Djiropo, K. J. P. Richard. "De la négro-renaissance à la négritude : incidences ou coi͏̈ncidences ?" Bordeaux 3, 1990. http://www.theses.fr/1990BOR30006.
Full textNegro-renaissance (an afro-american literary movement), according to numerous specialists, has a manifest incidence upon negritude. In view of the historical reality, it would be proper to reconsider this thesis. Indeed, it has appeared to us that negritude has a remote origin which dates back to wilmot e. Blyden in liberia, in the 19th century. He talked about "african personality". This long history has been evaded: only the thesis of the influence of negro-renaissance has been considered. Yet this american movement didn't pretend to unite all the bllacks through a politicocultural concept. Furthermore, it didn't take into account the fundamental problems of its community. Only some leaders, like b. W. W. E. B. Du bois, and marcus garvey, met their "people" s aspirations. This new conscience, born under the influence of these three men, had an incidence upon parisian black racial conscience, unsuspected before. This external contribution, combined with the french local realities, kept alive a heated debate between black assimilationists and radicals. Haitian indigenisme on the one hand, and negritude (which later pooved to be a pseudo-ideology) on the other hand, started off from this specifically parisian context. In any case, it's proper to acknowledge that the thesis of the ovious influence of nr on negritude is not based on historically observable facts, but on testimonies and presuppositions, which justify even more the mythical aspect of this politico-cultural doctrine

Full textThe negro renaissance, a literrary and social movement wich emerged and developed principally in harlem, new york's black neighborhood, during the 1920's, has greatly influenced african nationalism and african thought, negritude in particul. Closely observed, both new negro and negritude movement, as well related black movements, seem to proceed from the same approach. This study looks into these movements as movements born out of a crisis and in search for a black identity and endeavors to elucidate the implication of that identity quest. The crisis of black identity as expressed through the new negro and negritude movements is born out of domination and exploitation rela tionships. The search for a black identity from both sides derives therefore from a phenomenon of the same nature generated by the world's system of domination and exploitation of mem among themselves and of nations among nations? which has turned into an overall crisis. So wouldn't the elimination of that crisis, and through it, the elimination of the world's system of domination and exploitation? hence the need for a second revolution at world level, more humane and giving way to the emergence of a new prototype of civilization freed of. .

Full textThe subject of this study is the quest for an African identity in the works of the hai͏̈tian writer René Depestre and cuban Nicolas Guillen. Although they are both partisans of a multiple identity, we have tried to identify their differences and to bring the elements they have in common to the fore. Negritude, "négrisme", africaness, caribbeanness arising from creoleness and creolization, each of these identities is recognized by them. .

Full textIn this thesis title: "From Aimé Césaire's Negritude to Edouard Glissant's Tout-Monde, an analysis of a discursive reversal", the keywords – Negritude, discursive, reversal, Tout-monde, and creolization – set out two fundamental paradoxes and paradigms. These are the relationship between Caribbean society and Cartesian West ; and that between the disciples gathered around Confiant and Chamoiseau, the sons, against Césaire, the father. The central question is one of semio-anthropology and rhetoric; think of the Cesairian analysis of oxymorons and neologisms such as "départementalisation". We can observe the importance given to the argumentative process in the example of the discourse against colonialism, which centers around these binary confrontations, and is symbolized by the rhetoric of the White/white/Black/black or the semiotic of Greimas as reinterpreted by Bremond. Following on from M. Rinn, we will trace the journey of an actant-type from the role of patient as victim of the effects of the colonial issue to a reversal into the role of an agent who is an actor in his own destiny. This antithetic structure is replaced by the poetics of the Relationship – be it metaleptic or allegorical – for Glissant who, even at the collective level, replaces the nation-state, a bastion of globalization according to Césaire, by the relationship-nation, open to the diversity of interactions between its peripheral elements. The common choices made by Césaire, the poet, and Glissant, the philosopher, lead us to structure our thesis around Ricoeur's original notions of the early and latter stages of civilizations and the recreation of lost cultures. These also inspire the dialogic of the dramatic level of these works. With the cunning of the Trickster, we move to a reversal of the dialectic of evil by various effects of humor, where the beauty of the world is best expressed, where differences are agglutive rather than reductive
Diop, Mamadou. "La multivalence du sacré dans l'oeuvre poétique de Léopold Sédar Senghor : négritude, universalité et géopoétique." Grenoble 3, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009GRE39016.
Full textThe stake in this thesis is to propose a revaluation of the work of L. S Senghor, because it puts back in perspective the senghorians studies and rethinks the role of the poet as the promoter of an opened faith, where the dogma is revisited by the myth, the Christianity widened by the animism an universal opened to the geopoetic. The objective is to show, from the textual processes revealing its dynamics, how the sacred ends in a more universal conception at Senghor. The comment is focused on the sacred, but it is obvious that. For Senghor it does not stop being bound with many other literary, cultural, political or socio-historic areas. When the sacred is put in vantage in the man evolution, the poetic works allows setting in coherent way a new object of study. Indeed, from an original basis, really established on the basis an endogenous syncretism between the nearby African faiths (seerer, manding and peulh), The poetry of Senghor first tries to make itself the place of an exogenous syncretism. , First this one is mad upstream (with the Greek world and that of the Old Testament). Then, it will be made downstream with the Christian spirituality, before opening, in an ultimate point, on a further flung poetico-spiritual domain, based on the relationship between the man and the land. In a nutshell, the objective consists in showing that Senghor, who elaborates one paradigm of thought non dual, aims nothing less than a radical opening of the thought, as well for the intellectual ground as for the spiritual one
Hernandez-Monmarty, Eva. "Musicalité, corps et spiritualité dans la poésie de la négritude chez Césaire, Senghor et Craveirinha." Thesis, Université Côte d'Azur (ComUE), 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018AZUR2032/document.
Full textThe negritude deals with the quest for identity which is the result of the colonization and with literary aesthetics, borrowing its language and rhythm from both of the countries : the one where the author was born and the colonizing one. Therefore, it is linked to politics. In poetry, it creates a particular rhythm which reveals sometimes a tension between the cultures. Moreover, the rhythm in Aimé Césaire's, Léopold Sédar Senghor's and José Craveirinha's poems has a resonance in the typography. Typography is also related to music thanks to the space occupied by the words on the page. The rythmic tam-tam bounds are, for instance, typographical bounds in Léopold Sédar Senghor's works. This rhythm, which is called musicality in poetry, lets differents languages in poetry. The question deals with poetry and musical instruments. In other words, is there an element giving birth to the other one or is there a coexistence of them ? Moreover, nearly systematically typography also gives roundtrips between eyesight and hearing. These roundtrips, allowed by the lack of ponctuation or its absence, let the reader give rhythm to the reading. The colors and the light mentioned in the poems highlight eyesight.The poems become paintings. Both the rhythm and the parallel between the poems and the calligrams give them a physical aspect. This one is revealed in the topic of body which is, frequently, a woman body. On one hand, the feminine body is full of sensuality, but on the other one it also is the mother's one, showing the native land. Through this, the link between the poet and his native land is underlined. That can also explain a sort of animality when the poets evoke the rhythm of tam-tam and the making of this musical instrument with a piece of skin. José Craveirinha is strongly concerned, because the poet pronounces his desire to become a « tambor » (drum), and Aimé Césaire's trance and its frenetic rhythm when the musicality created by the anaphor imitates the rhythm of tam-tam. Thus, rhythm and musicality are close to each other. The feminine body extends to the poet's and the reader's bodies because the perceptible is in the place of honour in the poems of the three authors studied. That's why the notion of border appears. It reveals the delimitation between a portion of space and the other that Gilles Deleuze already mentioned. The border is made to be broken, as the philosopher says. This way, the three authors' poetry is a poetry focused on the passing from a place to the other. The experience of senses is crucial for the poets, and also the resonance of poetic speech which can express sufferings, in José Craveirinha's poems for instance

Full textThis thesis focuses on the study of the journal Présence Africaine from its creation in 1947 until the second half of the 1960s. The ruptures and internal permanences of the journal, as well as its insertion in a political, social and cultural West African context of transformation, are thought through the analysis of articles, editorials and correspondence exchanged in the period. The years selected for this research, the post-World War II scenario, were marked by many changes. This is the context in which Présence Africaine was constructed, in consonance with the West African intelligentsia of French expression and the establishment of legitimized intellectual discourses, practices and activities denominated as "African". In this scenario, the imbricated relation between intellectual and political elites was increasingly evident. In those years, the magazine's initial program of insertion of Black cultures in modernity, criticized as excluding and eurocentric, is enriched and gained new dimensions, strengthened by the creation of Société Africaine de Culture in 1956, which insert the cultural production directly into the games of force and disputes over the future of Africa. At this situation, the appropriation of the language and practices of International Relations and the creation and naming of the said Third World, for which the Bandung Conference in 1955 emerged as an important mark, were central to the paths and negotiations that the magazine and institution traced. As a periodical thought as a vehicle and a point of mobilization for cultural and political action, Présence Africaine is a rich source to understanding, in its complexity, the currents of West African political thought that circulated during the critical moment of 1950s and 1960s. Accordingly, the proposals for the future of the continent, between autonomy, independence and African unity, the revue’s adherence to projects for national construction and, at the same time, its insertion in international solidarity movements such as Pan-Africanism, can be traced and mapped as central debates within the publication. These topics became decisive for the construction of a narrative on Présence Africaine and on a whole generation of French-speaking West African intellectuals and politicians
Esta tese tem como perspectiva central o estudo da revista Présence Africaine a partir de sua criação, em 1947, até a segunda metade da década de 1960. Rupturas e permanências internas ao periódico, assim como sua inserção em um contexto político, social, cultural e intelectual oeste-africano em transformação, são pensadas por meio da análise de artigos, editoriais e correspondências trocadas no período. Os anos selecionados para a pesquisa, no pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial, foram marcados por muitas mudanças. É nesse cenário que a Présence Africaine se constrói, em consonância com a intelectualidade oeste-africana de expressão francesa e o estabelecimento de discursos e de práticas legitimadas enquanto atividades intelectuais nomeadas como “africanas” nas quais a imbricada relação entre elite intelectual e política se torna cada vez mais evidente. Nesses anos, o programa inicial da revista, de inserção das culturas negras na modernidade, criticada como excludente e eurocêntrica, é enriquecido e ganha novas dimensões. Essa reconfiguração foi fortalecida pela criação da Société Africaine de Culture, em 1956, que inseriu a Présence Africaine diretamente nos jogos de força e nas disputas em torno do futuro para a África. Nessa conjuntura, a apropriação da linguagem e das práticas das Relações Internacionais e a criação e nomeação do dito Terceiro Mundo, sendo a Conferência de Bandung, em 1955, um importante marco, foram centrais para os caminhos e negociações que a revista e instituição traçou. Enquanto um periódico pensado como veículo e ponto de mobilização e de ação cultural e política, a Présence Africaine é uma rica fonte para entender, em sua complexidade, as correntes do pensamento político oeste-africano que circulavam durante o momento crítico das décadas de 1950 e 1960. Dessa forma, propostas para o futuro do continente, entre autonomia, independência e unidade africana, sua adesão a projetos para a construção nacional e, ao mesmo tempo, sua inserção em movimentos de solidariedade internacional, como o pan-africanismo e o terceiro-mundismo, podem ser temáticas rastreadas e mapeadas como debates centrais no interior da publicação. Esses tópicos se tornam decisivos para a construção de uma narrativa sobre a Présence Africaine e toda uma geração de intelectuais e políticos oeste-africanos de expressão francesa

Full textThe aim of this study is to understand and to analyse the various theories on the plastic arts of sub-Saharan Africa, by focusing on the following questions : can we really differentiate the ancient art, the traditional art and the contemporary art of sub-Saharan Africa using time as the measure to compare artistic creations of today and yesterday ? The ancient and the traditional are they not also the memory of the contemporary ? can we establish a link between the art of sub-Saharan Africa and that of Old Egypt ? Should we search for the origins of the African artistic creation in a foreign culture ? How has opinion evolued from contempt for the African arts to their recognition ? How must one read and understand the Negro-African arts ? Are there any aesthetics and art critics in sub-Saharan Africa ? What is the place of the African arts and their artists in the march to globalization ? In the study of these questions we will examine the following : the history of African art - from the ancient African arts to the modern and contemporary arts - through the analysis of the traditional arts - or what was formerly called "the Negro Art" - and several views and interpretations concerning the African arts. These central ideas from the backbone of the two parts of this essay which will allow us to reveal the false theories which have often nourished the study of the arts of sub-Saharan Africa. The approach is philosophical as well as historical allowing the understanding of different theories on African art and their significance

The challenge here is to comprehend, from a political, cultural, epistemological and phenomenological perspective, the historical formation of racial categories as well as the social and political structure that allows us to think of the mode of domination as reflected by the above question

Full textThis thesis tries to explore the development of salsa music and the socio-cultural phenomenon it represents in venezuelan society today. Starting with an historical analysis, the position of the evolution of afro-cuban music is defined as is its expansion into the hispanic caribean until the transformation of the afro-caribean music and more recently, the acquisition of the name "salsa". By using the technique of content analysis concerning two hundred typical songs from this type of music, a topology of salsa songs has been grouped into five categories : descriptive songs, romantic songs, political songs, erotic songs and songs which blend all groups. In a general way, the results show that the song contents are in an ideological perspective, that salsa music is a characteristic of the regional culture of the hispanic caribean and that by telling stories of everyday life this music places the accent over the complex workings of the hispanic caribean society. In conclusion, it's shown that salsa music uses a language that can be called the "language of salsa", in which we find words, phrases and expressions which, projected by the songs, show a certain way of speaking and behaving and that these become a unifyting factor in the way in which salsa listeners communicate

Full textThis research has the aim of proposing approaches between the authors Agostinho Neto (Angolan) and Solano Trindade (Brazilian). Literary and political similarities during their life spans were considered while comparisons were being made. Both poets dedicated themselves to literature and, also, to social and political causes during their lives. The research focuses on the comparative analysis between the texts Sagrada Esperança (1985), from Neto, and Trindade\'s Cantares ao meu povo (1961). We are going to adopt the Négritude as a theme and its relation with revolutionary and/or utopian romantism as a focus of comparison in order to found our research, having the studies performed by Michael Löwy and Robert Sayre as a guide. By working the texts\' convergence out, we believe it is possible to notice that there are romantic survivals that are highlighted by the Black Movement, what can be verified in the works selected to this research. Romantism is faced as a \"vision about the world\", so it is free from tieds of time. While vizualizing that echoes from this romantism take part in Négritude, we believe it is possible to verify that the works from Agostinho Neto and Solano Trindade belong to a type of poetry in which the authors, from their verses, are concerned about provoking the revolutionary action that is able to generate tranformations.

Full textThis thesis captures the theatricality of jazz through the instruments of the scenic and dramaturgical analysis. Three approaches are articulated here. The first is to highlight the symbiotic conception of the art, which led to the genesis of the genre. Stemming from a different cultural paradigm with the principle of aesthetic autonomy and a categorical separation of Fine Arts, the Afro-American performance practices back to the slavery days does not distinguish between artistic sphere and social concerns, nor do they separate different forms of poetic expression. Inherently theatrical and firmly rooted in the popular reality, the scenes preceding the jazz history foreshadow the evolution of an art that never ceased to thwart the dominant representations to legitimize itself. The second approach emphasizes the reflective function of scenic jazz performances including their capacity to reflect power relations structuring the social sphere. Our analysis tracks how the process of legitimation went along with a specialization in jazz expression shaping a musical genre. In the dramaturgical approach to the phenomenon that closes our research, performances seems like a fun practice leading to a collective discourse and a dynamic that shows as much agonistic as cooperative. This kind of play implies an attempt to transcendent oneself and the musical medium that verges on the tragic. Through these intersected perspectives, our thesis reflects the deep relationship that unites these two performing arts at the same time it intends to contribute to the discussions on its recent changes

Full textIn the context of the independences of former French colonies, the poetic impetus of militant authors such as Aimé Césaire, Léopold Sédar Senghor or Léon-Gontran Damas is adamantly linked to the rebuttal of colonialism and to political activism. Intellectuals, writers, and artists strongly condemn European imperialisms. For the “Négritude” poets, poetry stands as the most obvious testimony of political and literary commitment. Their poetic works, relying both on oral practices inherited from Africa and on relatively classic prosodic styles, is the vehicle for political messages and reclaiming of African culture. Subsequently, novel writing in sub-Saharian Africa tackles more and more themes of slavery, colonization, colonial alienation, neo-colonialism, all of this becoming empowering processes. The question is to open on a renewed vision of the world, giving the French language a new creative trace, through the authors’ representation. Therefore, Francophone literature reclaims its singularity. This is especially true with Cameroon and Congo: for instance, Ahmadou Kourouma posits that his literature is malinké. Tchicaya U. Tam’si declares that if the French language is colonizing him, then he colonizes it in turn. The colonized rebellion paradoxically leans on the French colonizer language, while trying to displace and advance it through writing. Francophone literature in sub-Saharian Africa is the place of differences and of “différances”, for it bears the traces of many sociological reflexions, and becomes, through its diversity, a place for creativity, liberty and hybridity. We also witness the rise of political protest novel against dictatures, corruption, civil wars ; for example Ahmadou Kourouma, writing Allah n’est pas obligé, does not bother anymore with the rules of literature but excels in the practice of a “rotten language” to describe an atrocious war. This is a form of creativity similar to the one that give birth to creole, “français petit-nègre”, “camfranglais” and one that African sub-Saharian literature explore. It is in this perspective opened by subversive writing and reading practices that women emancipation in Africa takes place. The case of Calixthe Beyala, among others, illustrates this evolution of the status of women in society, beyond the sexual male/female divide. This process stems from post-colonialism and independentist movements gaining power and focus in the XXth century. Women distinguish themselves thanks to their writing and speech in a public sphere reserved to men. Novels written by sub-Saharian African women carefully describe traditional practices, polygamy, forced marriages. These writers, through their acquired freedom speech, have gained the power to participate in the public debate. This form of emancipation takes hold of a language and an art formerly reserved to men because of traditions. Violence, slang words, obscene or pornographic language are no longer part of a male monopoly on poetic language. This poetic creation is vested differently by women writers, who are therefore able to express themselves

Full textJohn edgar wideman's fiction was first published when the black arts movement was fast developing in his country, the united states of america. Yet it owes little to "black" nationalism. From the start any racial definition of man is forcefully rejected by this heir to richard wright, ralph ellison and robert hayden. In his first three novels, published between 1967 and 1973, he laments at length the prevailing "black" / "white" dichotomy, but fails to find consistent ways out of what he calls "little time", i. E. Racial history. Perceived as yet another rehash of the paradigm of race, black heroics are unambiguously disqualified in hurry home and the lynchers. Only in 1981-1983 with the homewood trilogy does wideman strike a new and more jubilant note, as he lovingly gathers up the numerous stories of ordinary life which were told around him when a child. Authorship is no longer a matter of absolute control over the text; rather it means opening up to the many voices competing for air time and truth within society. The storyteller acts as medium to them all. Only then can he hope to gain access to (african) "great time" or (australian) "dreamtime", "a nonlinear, atemporal medium in which all things that ever have been, are, or will be mingle freely". As all stories go backward and forward, linear time collapses and the always present tense of narrative takes over. To counter the notorious slavers' shuttle and erase racial history, wideman has now come to rely on the semi-autonomous shuttle of narrative. Since 1989 his assiduous and ever more sophisticated weaving of textual "great time" is coupled with an uninhibited revisiting of the so-called enlightenment, when africans were transported to the new world, the modern notions of "race" and "ethnicity" invented and ancient greece remodeled and cleansed of all egyptian influence. Because there is always one more voice to hear, there can be no end to the storytelling. Narrative "great time" is what comes next and next and next. In wideman's fiction "blackness" is the opposite of a boxed-in identity: it means revealing and exploring man's infinite possibilities

Full textThe African synod which had been convoked by Pope John-Paul II an January 6th 1989 took place in Rome from April 10th to May 8th 1994. It was a really important event for Africa, "an intense and sustained collegial work" as the Pope said. But it is a known fact that it took place in Rome at the end of a long negotiation and amid some discrepant speeches. As a matter of fact the story of evangelisation which was going together with colonization had created the "three C theory : colonizing, civilizing and christianising". . .

Full textThe followers of the Negritude accustomed us to the confrontation between Africa and Europe through the staging of a character-dreaming of Europe with stereotyped images of France conveyed by the colonial school-who is confronted with the conditions of exile during his stay in Europe and the remoteness of motherland which bears all his aspirations. But for the writers of Migritude, emigration to Europe takes a different turn; it is no longer motivated by a desire for discovery but an escape from the native land which has become repulsive, while Europe is in the eyes of migrants, an attractive place embellished by the stories of immigrants who, have already made the journey. The present research seeks to reflect on the change that has taken place on the representation of immigration in Europe, from the writers of the first generation to those of the second generation

Full textThe “grupo de Guayaquil” denounced the exploitation of the Indians, and Ortiz revealed the blacks in Juyungo (1943). The characters evolve in Esmeraldas, his province. Although he knew they were victims of racism, he advocated the class struggle to improve their lot: “Más que la raza la clase”. Ecuadorian society found it difficult to abandon feudalism, and the social pyramid remained ethnocratic. Ortiz would move from Negrism to a writing imbued with Hispanic. Estupiñán Bass, from the same “generación de los 30”, native of Esmeraldas too, offered When the Guayacans Were in Bloom; the action takes place from 1913 to 1916. He remained the voice of black people. Qualified as authors of the black world, these “mulattos” are inspired, for these novels, by an art of being, fighting and living of the Blacks of the Coast. For the group of Guayaquil, the Afrodescendants excluded from everything deserved a tribute, and social realism would denounce this injustice by describing what can appear as a Negro specificity reflected, according to them, in the personality of the characters, their relationship to the natural or supernatural environment, historical facts. How do Ortiz and Bass approach the question of the social progress of the Blacks, heirs of a dying colonial society but clinging to the old privileges linked to the ethnic origin? Bass attempts to show how black people sacrificed themselves for Concha in 1913 through her characters. Later, those of Juyungo, sometimes destitute, sick, victims of tenacious racism, of sometimes unconscious self-contempt, embody the political and especially “racial” conflict which, in the social reality of the country, opposed blacks and conservatives in an offensive against exclusion, the negation of their differences
Mouëllic, Gilles. "Jazz et cinéma : convergences esthétiques." Rennes 2, 1999. http://www.theses.fr/1999REN20009.
Full textJazz was born out of the meeting of two cultures, African culture, supposedly more spontaneous, and western culture, founded on the idealism inherited from classical Greece. What was New Orleans folk music at the beginning of the 20th century became universally known as an art form through the use of new technical developments, including the cinema, which played an important role in this movement. With the presence of musicians in movie theatres and on silent film screens, the influence of swing and the big bands on the major American cinema genres during the nineteen thirties and forties, and the creation of Hollywood jazz which took over during the following decade, film making was permanently inspired by the new aesthetic which gradually left its mark on all aspects of the arts this century while at the same time and even up to the present refusing to recognize the great black film directors. While black American cinema, marginal but fascinating, tried to give jazz its rightful place, a few white film makers began to take this music as a model. This is the case for John Cassavetes in his first film Shadows (1959) where two aesthetics, jazz and the cinema, came together at last. Other directors became inspired, consciously or not, by jazz: Shirley Clarke in the US, but also Jean-Luc Godard and Jean Rouch in Europe. Most of this activity took place in the late nineteen fifties in works marked by the desire to work differently in film making. For Gilles Deleuze it was during those years that the reversal between "time-image" and "movement-image" became perfectly visible. If modern jazz was present at that time, it was no accident: great musicians were also trying to subordinate movement to time. Conquering a new space: that was then the joint ambition of jazz and the cinema, found also in the most innovating currents in

Full textThe surrealistic idea has surely had a great influence on the founders of the Négritude-Movement. We are able to find it in the works and poetics of Césaire, Senghor and Damas, and especially in the surrealistically orientated review Tropiques as well as in the critical reception of the African literature. The first alliance of the representatives of the first generation of African poets with Surrealism is due to some of their shared objectives such as the questioning of the colonial system, the critic of colonialism and the recovery and revalorization of the African cultural heritage. The first African poets like Senghor, Césaire and Damas tried to incorporate and apply the surrealistic program to their proper context in order to achieve their own targets, such as: poetically, like Rimbaud declared, to change life and politically, like Marx stated, to change the world. The relationship between Surrealism and African literature presents the main subject of this paper. The dissertation treats particularly authors, who have not yet been examined from a surrealistic point of view. Concerning this thesis, Dambudzo Marechera is regarded above all as an exemplary representative for new literary avant-garde writing from Africa. The area of research for this study is limited most notably on forms of literary Avant-gardes in Africa south of the Sahara and most of all on surrealistic forms. This will be examined by the means of artistic conceptions and philosophy as well as poetic extracts of the postcolonial Zimbabwean writer, which will demonstrate the tendencies of a new trend of writing. The dissertation examines the relationship between European Surrealism and African poetry stemmed from the first and later generations of African writers through Césaire and Marechera. Additionally, it presents a pleadge for pushing the boundaries of research in the field of Surrealisms of African literature and awakening the interest for more research concerning the topic of this paper.

Full textFrom independence to today, Africa, for the most part, is struggling to overcome thedifficulties it faces. Previously, the struggle for freedom was waged at the same time onseveral levels. One of the most important was undoubtedly the intellectual struggle waged bythe founding writers of negritude. However, since the departure of the settlers, the situationhas been disastrous. Even as Africans finally rule Africa’s destiny, the continent’s sociopolitical situation is dramatically deteriorating due to poor governance. This is how fictionalworks developing polemical and pamphleteer strategies appeared. While criticizing politicaland customary authorities, these accounts seek to thwart censorship. The objective of thiswork will be to analyze the polemic and pamphleteer aspect of some of these texts producednot to glorify the continent and the black woman as do the authors of negritude, but above allto denounce the defects of Africa and raise awareness. (Mongo Béti, Perpétue et l’habitudedu malheur ; Fatoumata Kéita, Sous fer ; Ahmadou Kourouma, En attendant le vote des bêtessauvages). They invite introspection and change in an henceforth disillusioned Africa. It istherefore also a question of exposing the role of construction of society, of man and ofhumanity that literature assigns itself

Full textWe have been trying to show in this dissertation that africa has never ceased to have a major role to play in the history of blacks in the united states, as a cultural component which guarantees their specific identity in the first place, and in the second place, as a reference of nationality that they claim as openly as the refusal of their integration in the american mainstream is implacable. Their claim of membership of an african world has gone through the times, from the initial attempts to emigrate to africa to the recent and more realistic pan-africanist trend. But their endeavour to break away from the traditional integrationist feelings seems to have been painful and the identification with africa is often coupled with ambivalence as in the case of the novelists who very often remain dependant on the traditional euro-american cliches of the primitive african. This being one of the reasons why their image of africa seems less precise than the one presented in the poetry. Indeed, the black poets have developed a more coherent image of africa which evolves as follow: they have reasserted the value of the past of their african ancestors, glorified the beauty of blackness, before they can claim an african identity, as they feel and present the problems of nowadays africa as their own. This celebration of an african personality by the afro-american writers, though it may reveal some romanticism, cannot be disregarded as a temporary extravaganza, for its echo reaching as far as the african continent itself, has helped to re-establish the links of kinship which had been broken for a long time, leading the afro-americans through a major turning point in their long and painful search of an identity

It proposes to identify the various ways in which the quest for identity itself as privileged material of the structure of the four novels narrative. Party of the question: what does theliterature, we intend to demonstrate that the quest for identity is distinguished as the central motif in the composition of francophone postcolonial novel?. The choice for these four writers based on the desire to show the romantic theme of the operation of the search for identity. Indeed, applied to the internal dynamics of stories that structure the stories, the quest for identity emerges as the issue that crosses the writing of francophone postcolonial novel, especially in the writing of Alain Mabanckou, Tahar Ben Jelloun, Ananda Devi and Suzanne Dracius. By scientific standards, this study is divided into three areas. First historiographical axis. It attaches to a fairly simple understanding of the concepts of this study and illustrate the different facets in literary history. Then poetic axis where analytical.

Full textThis thesis is a study of the movement of some Black Americans back to Africa—especially to Ghana—from the late 1950s to the present day. Since the late 1950s, a growing number of Black Americans—descendants of Africans deported during the slave trade and slavery—started to move to Africa, especially to Ghana. The reason behind this movement from the United States of America to Ghana is different from one individual to another. While the first Returnees, also called the Radical Afros, were fully devoted to the realization of the ideals of political Pan-Africanism, the groups, that follow, were motivated, among other things, by the quest for identity-building and origins, the quest for human dignity and the quest for physical and psychological security outside of the racist atmosphere and police brutality that pervade the United States of America. Once in Ghana, beyond confronting the history of slavery, these Returnees try, on daily basis, to integrate into Ghanaian society in a changing atmosphere from appeasement to tension. This atmosphere results from the cultural gap and the difference of reality between the descendants of the enslaved Africans and Ghanaians, and globally Africans. Based on field study including interviews, conversations and observations carried out in Ghana between May and July 2017 and accounts of some Black Americans’ journey to Ghana, this thesis focuses on the motivations and reasons leading some Black Americans to move to Africa, more precisely to Ghana, but also the interaction between Returnees and Ghanaian population. This research reveals a strong desire of some Returnees to reconnect with their African origins and heritage, to recover some African cultural elements and to express their pride of being “Black” and “African”. But, their Americanness and their socialization within Euro-American values render sometimes their interaction with Ghanaians a bit difficult. In addition, the burden of race within Returnees is not something shared with Ghanaians. This exposes two distinct worlds separated by the notion of “race” and the idea of Blacks as “one people”

Full textThis research focuses on the identity that an author uniquely constructs and elaborates throughout his works. In doing so, the thesis reveals major discursive, argumentative and stylistic aspects of the literary works as well as of the image of their authors. Although their writing may be concerned with the future of their country, the artistic uniqueness of the work depends less on one’s African origins, and more on his connections to The World Republic of Letters as a member of the French literary field, taking into account the totality of literary and social discourses that constitute this field. This study wishes to examine the discursive Image (ethos) of two authors – Ousmane Sembène (Le docker noir 1956 et Les Bouts de bois de Dieu 1960) and Mongo Beti (Le Pauvre Christ de Bomba 1956 and Mission terminée 1957) – two of the most acclaimed “African writers” published before the time of the African Independence (1960’s)

Paris 13, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA131010.
Full textFor a long time African Americans have been confronted with a dilemma: how to exist in a society living in contradiction with the Principles of Liberty and Equality enunciated by the Founding Fathers, and how to affirm one‘s personal identity without disavowing one‘s community? This study analyzes, through literature, the long way from denial to recognition of the sacred and unalienable rights included in the Declaration of Independence. Not Without Laughter was published in 1930, at the height of the Harlem Renaissance. Jubilee and The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman were written during the second part of the twentieth century, when the Black Aesthetic movement was in vogue. Both literary movements are built on a racial pride that pervades the quest for identity of the heroes. The three novels illustrate the major stages of African American history. Barack Obama‘s autobiography, analyzed as a literary work, throws light on this study in presenting his own quest for identity at the end of the twentieth century: Dreams From My Father bears the burden of the past, but also contains the seed of change which allowed Barack Obama to reach the American Dream. Through its promise of equality, wealth and happiness, embodying the values of courage and work, this dream has developed individualism in the American society; while being inaccessible to the black people, it has developed a strong community link. This individual longing will be called ―personal identity‖, and the belonging to the community will be called ―collective identity. ‖ The African American quest for identity is constantly oscillating between these two poles, the prevalence of the one on the other reflecting historic and social evolution

You don't know too much which of the poet or the politick should be retained of him. In truth, the keened of literature and the politic junkie meet to welcom the ambivalence that he incarnates! Since 1940, his first poetic collection "Sur les Marches du soir" until 1998, the parution of his essay on " le Prince Razaka", the Malagasy bard through his poems, his theaters, his political cultural essay defends his identity and the one of his people. Can he make hear his difference in the highest summit of the French colonisation in the years 1935? The historical evolution of the colonial power in Malagasy land raises the apparition of events by saying "the scriptural inspiration" of member of parliament-prisoner-writer during the bloody and enigmatic event of March 29, 1947. The writer has found in politic a literary ferment, and the politick has taken from his nationalism, a deep poetic inspiration. So, thanks to his bind, his poetry seems to be an urgency for he wants to remain Malagasy by adopting Victor Hugo's langage. He communes to affective universe, to the own culture of the people from which he comes thanks to the evocation of rites, myths and ancestral religion of his country. In freeing himself from his malagasy status as well as his negritude, he comes to ambrace and reinforce his human quality

Full textThe topic of this thesis is the very picture of interbreeding in french west indian literature in guadeloupe and martinique from the first work in 1806 until the year 1996. The first part of this research paper analyses the system of representation rooted in the french antilles at the social historical level as well as at the level of literary typology, stressing the existence of a two-tiered system of reference. The second part, wich involves the archeology of picture of interbreeding, presents a historical part, making it possible to follow the evolution of mulatto class from the founding of the colonies up till the beginning of the xixth century, as well as an anthropological part focusing on the xviiith century colonial ideology. The third and most important part is centered on the changes of the picture of the mulatto and interbreeding in literature. Three steps are to be pointed out : firstly, the ambivalant vision of the mulatto (negative connotation) in the speech of the white settler (from 1806 to 1914) ; secondly, the censoreship of interbreeding as part of the negritude. Finally, with the trend of "creolite", the reflected picture of the people of mixed descent is translated into the mixing of writings, the french/creole poetic diglossia held up as a reflective -miro by writers so that interbreeding turns into a figure to be called "ethno-realisation through speech

Full textPublications dealing with « Francophonie » both emphasize the role of African independence leaders and underplay its colonial origins. We produce a more balanced history, highlighting the ambigous role assigned to language in the natives’ acculturation process based on two streams of sources. The rationale developed by the fathers of the French colonial idea, the founders of the Alliance Française and by Onésime Reclus, who coined the term “Francophonie” in 1880 is one major set. The other includes legislative documents and school curricula dealing with lingustic matters in the colonies. The ambiguity stems from a simultaneous desire to create resemblance (so as to assert imperial power and stimulate trade with the colonies) and to maintain, through differential mastery of the language, a distance between colonial agents and natives. French inculturation was thus designed to avoid, on the one hand, that too many natives be left out at the risk of becoming hostile to colonization and, on the other hand, to keep natives out of the community of French citizens. In the final analysis, the « francophone project » that emerged during the independence movements led by a minority of highly educated “french-speaking” natives remains ambiguous. French nationalism provides a successful account of the project’s civilizing mission, which allowed colonized populations to conceptualize their emancipation while simultaneously allowing to keep them within a French cultural sphere of influence. Conversly, it is also possible to analyze the project as a legacy of the “Negritude” movement and the uprooting of the language from its national origins

Full textTo question Aimé Césaire and revolt is to explore the history of the West Indies and black people to identify the adequate situations of a cultural, political as well as literary revolt. A revolt that cannot be understood without knowing the stakes of the political and literary pathway of the man and the basic historical events that marked the social, cultural and political imaginary of the West Indies and French-speaking black Africa, namely, the discovery of the West indies by Christopher Columbus, slavery and colonization. These events reified the Black and which favorably echo with Aimé Césaire. But this revolt of Césaire which vilifes colonial order will have varying luck. Writers of creole identity hold their spiritual father Aimé Césaire to public obloquy, reproaching him with his affiliation to mother Africa and his political years. The aesthetics of Césaire remains a means found by the author to solve his inner contradictions and fulfill his personality. Today, Aimé Césaire stands upstream all the rebellious forms of style at the reading of his literary and political engagement. He has often been a source of incomprehension by his peers, but at the same time, he cleared the paths of recognition not only of the creole soul, but also of Africa where his aura is still perceptible

Full textThis thesis concerns a comparative study between Senghor; a Senegalese poet who writes in French and Mohamed AL-Faytouri, half Sudanese half Libyan poet who writes in Arabic. It targets comparing the spiritual dimensions of their poems. Furthermore, it aims to show the multiple meanings of the quest that cannot be separated from their poems. Their writings describe the search of unity between human and divine, material and spiritual, the living and the dead and finally visible and invisible. Our critical approach would follow the poetic and spiritual adventure of both poets regarding their search for the surreal and the absolute. Senghor's poetry is influenced by the animist and Christian spirituality, while Faytouri’s poetry is inspired by the Sufi spirituality and by African mysticism.In spite of their different origins, they use the same themes that complete each other in establishing a coherent form. The two poets have the same desire to return back to the origins, find the original innocence and have the mystical union. Their search for “purity” in human nature is surrounded by danger. They aim to emphasis on the idea of living in perfect coherence with the Universe. Last but not least, the poets refer to woman’s mediation, music, night and nature to communicate with the intimate and the secret of the invisible

CAPES
Ao longo dos estudos especializados do Pan-africanismo as análises apresentam a tendência de adotar uma relativização de seus conteúdos teóricos como ambíguos e residuais, concentrando teórico-metodologicamente suas abordagens nas pesquisas biográficas de seus atores e suas relações ou, examinando a suposta “procedência” de suas “ideias” políticas e culturais como exclusivamente exógenas à expressão de seu movimento político-social. Esta tese tem como objetivo analisar as estruturas teórico-filosóficas e ideológicas que o Pan-africanismo desenvolveu ao longo de sua história, adotando e configurando conceitos e princípios que estruturam suas práticas políticas e culturais. São analisados esses desenvolvimentos relativos a seus contextos históricos, sociais, espaciais e epistemológicos desde finais do século XVIII, com a origem da identidade política Pan-negrista e Pan-africana, até metade do século XX, com a adoção de uma política da unidade africana nas primeiras etapas pós-independência dos Estados Africanos. É examinado seu devir teorético, ideológico, filosófico e político até a proposição de uma teoria própria e particular. Estuda-se com especial centralidade o conceito de Unidade Africana como eixo transversal a sua filosofia e teoria política. Teórico-Metodologicamente esta pesquisa adota uma perspectiva hermenêutico-historiográfica e sincrônica, abrangendo diversos contextos do Atlântico Negro unidos por uma tradição de pensamento Pan-africanista, pesquisando arquivos, livros e artigos produzidos ao longo da rica, diversa e complexa tradição. Incorpora-se uma perspectiva interpretativa teórico-crítica com a adoção da teoria da ideologia e as correntes hermenêuticas dos estudos pós-coloniais africanos e críticos do pós-colonial africano.
Throughout the specialized studies of Pan-Africanism the research tends to adopt a relativization of their theoretical contents as ambiguous and residual, concentrating their theoretically and methodologically approaches in the biographical researches of their actors and their relations or examining the supposed “origin” of their political and cultural “ideas”, as exclusively exogenous to the expression of their sociopolitical movement. This thesis aims to analyze the theoretical-philosophical and ideological structures that PanAfricanism has developed throughout its history, adopting and configuring concepts and principles that structure its political and cultural practices. These developments related to their historical, social, spatial and epistemological contexts from the late eighteenth century, with the origin of Pan-Negrism and Pan-African political identity until the mid-twentieth century, were analyzed with the adoption of a policy of African unity in the early post-independence stages of African States. Its theoretical, ideological, philosophical and political becoming is examined until the proposition of an own and particular theory. The concept of African Unity is studied with special centrality as a transversal axis to its philosophy and political theory. Theoretically and methodologically, this research adopts a hermeneutic-historiographic and synchronic perspective, encompassing several contexts of the Black Atlantic united by a PanAfricanist tradition of thought, researching archives, books and articles produced throughout the rich, diverse and complex tradition. A theoretical-critical interpretative perspective is incorporated with the adoption of the theory of ideology and the hermeneutical currents of the postcolonial African studies and critics of the African postcolonial.
A lo largo de los estudios especializados del Panafricanismo los análisis presentan como tendencia la adopción de una relativización de sus contenidos teóricos como ambiguos y residuales, concentrando teórico-metodológicamente sus abordajes en las investigaciones biográficas de sus actores y sus relaciones o, examinando la supuesta “procedencia” de sus “ideas” políticas y culturales, como exclusivamente exógenas a la expresión de su movimiento político-social. Esta tesis tiene como objetivo analizar las estructuras teórico-filosóficas e ideológicas que el Panafricanismo desarrolló a lo largo de su historia, adoptando y configurando conceptos y principios que estructuran sus prácticas políticas y culturales. Se analizan estos desarrollos relativos a sus contextos históricos, sociales, espaciales y epistemológicos desde finales del siglo XVIII, con el origen de la identidad política Pan-negrista y Panafricana, hasta la mitad del siglo XX, con la adopción de una política de unidad africana en las primeras etapas de las independencias de los Estados africanos. Es examinado su devenir teorético, ideológico, filosófico y político hasta la proposición de una teoría propia y particular. Se estudia con especial centralidad el concepto de Unidad Africana como eje transversal a su filosofía y teoría política. Teórico-Metodológicamente esta investigación adopta una perspectiva hermenéuticohistoriográfica y sincrónica, abarcando diversos contextos del Atlántico Negro, unidos por una tradición de pensamiento panafricano, estudiando archivos, libros y artículos producidos a lo largo de la rica, diversa y compleja tradición. Se incorpora una perspectiva interpretativa teórico-crítica con la adopción de la teoría de la ideología y las corrientes hermenéuticas de los estudios postcoloniales africanos y críticos del poscolonialismo africano.

Full textDu bois is undoubtedly the poineer in the struggle for afroamerican liberation. He has positively outlined the essence of the inherent duality in the black american. Since the african origin of the black man was dishonestly used as an excuse to assign him a second class citizenship, dubois concluded that to liberate the black diaspora went beforehand through the rehabilitation of africa, thyis dark continent, without culture or history. He started to proclaim his negritude while singing his americanity. This way, his kinsmen would no longer be ashamed of their ancestral link with africa, and most of all, they would fight for their share of the national cake : the right to fully participate in the political, economic, social and spiritual life of the nation. In short, du bois'afro-americanism is the expression of a black culture in an american personality. Therefore, the afroamerican should not whiten his soul (deny his black culture); he must strive to complete the white culture in the interest of america. But, to cultural pluralism the wasp favoured another theory : segregation. He viewed cohabitation on the sole basis of domination and submission. Against this injustice, du bois turned into a fierce defender of the material and moral rights of the afro-americans, and into a eulogist of africa. Shouldering his duality, he exiled himself on the african
