Full textMonstrousness in Devi’s university and literary work denounces the illusion of the Primordial Link on which the Mauritian communities rely. This link is based on a repeating fixity, defends a so-called purity of descent and deeply fears any kind of change and merging. Devi criticises the Mauritian society which considers mixing as a social pollution and monstrousness. This violent society, having reached a point of no-return, must shift from a pattern promoting an isolated, identical self to a model of creolisation. Devi replaces the obsolete paradigm of a pure and endogamic identity by another kind of Primordial Link that unites every living being. Devi’s urge to write stems from the duty to warn against the on-coming wrench of humanness, to weave a linking work that can repair, at least on an imaginary level, our torn relationships. The Primordial Link is thus redefined, both theoretically and aesthetically. Devi refuses a morbid social system and a dangerous ideology; she rejects the sterile image of the double to pursue a dynamic hybridity. The fertile life-dust she imagines reveals the Commonness that binds all living creatures. Identity can no longer be understood as an identical, static concept, as a chain that imprisons an individual in an immutable group and in the myth of an idealised past. Identity is described by Devi as an exchange, a mixing stream that seems to define her very own literary creation. This new poetics tries to achieve dissemination and hybridisation. As a writer engaged in the society, Devi praises the quest for a diffusion and a new layout of the particles, a new configuration of the human body, in a quest for a tolerant, inventive identity

Full textThe Caribbean and Indian Ocean literatures of the last few decades has brought to light, through its poetic journey, the inherent ambivalence of the circumscription of island geographical reality, which allows access to the island consciousness. Insularity appears as the metaphor of a chronic pain caused by the torn between geographical and memory issues. The island, the place from which the imaginary emerges, is established as a common breeding ground for the texts of Patrick Chamoiseau, Ananda Devi and V. S. Naipaul who, through their poetic process, show the conflict of anchoring and escape, of confinement and openness. Thus in a diachronic approach, the aim is to grasp the inscription of this founding element of poetry and its praxis in order to hear the overtake initiated by these poetics of Mondialité, a key concept of Edouard Glissant's poetic philosophy. Glissant’s work echoes with Naipaul’s writing, as they are contemporaries, while Chamoiseau and Devi have inherited of Glissant’s poetic and philosophical thought. Then, the poetics of the Relation constitutes the exegetical arsenal that allows access to the authors'propositions of contemporaneity. The description of the malemort, the creating process of a memorial masterpiece, the poetic praxis of the monstrosity which release the body (physical, social, and literature), are the « unpredictable » generated. Creation thus tends to free itself from categorizations and assignments, because it is an echo of the movement of the world

Full textEmerging literatures using French or Creole as in the case of Mauritian literature undergo continuous change. We have chosen to study the interactions between languages/identities and literatures as they seem to constitute the common denominator of contemporary literary production in relation with work of four Mauritian writers : Ananda Devi Anenden (French), Lindsey Collen (English/ Mauritian Creole), Abhimanyu Unnuth (Hindi/Bhojpuri) and Dev Virahsawmy (Mauritian Creole/English). The aim of the study is not to undertake an inventory of literatures using French as a medium of creation in the Indian Ocean. Our objective is to show that the multilingual and multicultural Mauritian literatures emerge as counter forces using words, discourses and letters as their major creative energy. How does a writer chose a literary language? Of what identities and literatures are we talking about? Is it possible to build a Mauritian identity or entity by transcending the literary sphere which seems to be the unique space where one can manage differences and build an imaginary homeland?

Full textThe aim of this research is to study the quest of identity in the women characters in Ananda Devi’s novels. Devi is a Mauritian author of Indian origin. Our study reveals that the evolution of the women passes through three major stages : “l’identité-idem” or collective identification, the desire of identifying oneself to a particular group; “l’identité-ipsé” on the contrary is the desire to see oneself as unique within a certain group of individuals; l’”animus”, we define this term as the suppressed desires which are condemned by the society. Along with these three phases of identification, what characterises Devi’s women is that in their serge for emancipation they identify themselves with the Hindu mythical figures. In our study we have explored various images in Devi’s writings in order to reveal the existing links between Devi’s women and the following mythical figures : Sitā, Draupadi, Kālī. In fact, this experience of identification with the mythical figures is closed interlinked with the evolutionary phases defined above. In each of her evolutionary phase the woman identifies to one particular mythical figure : Sitā-identité-idem, Draupadi-identité-ipsé, and Kālī-animus

Full textAt the meeting point of three literatures: Mauritian Francophone and Indian literature in English and Hindi, the focus is placed on the construction of female agency in the Indiaoceanic narrative space. Ananda Devi, Arundhati Roy and Krishna Sobti depict female protagonists, defined through their personal crisis, in a social structure dominated by the male logos. Their écriture feminine exposes the terror felt vis-à-vis the female body and female sexuality, seen as the operating cause of the fall of the woman, from model to counter-model. Furthermore, the subject/object dialectics motivated by power, is so fragile that very often the negotiation of this fine line determines the construction of the female protagonist, as well as her claiming of an identity of her own. Cultural studies and gender studies used as theoretical and aesthetic tools help us understand the problematic subalternity of the female character in both postcolonial and patriarchal contexts. Her emergence as subject of discourse takes place via revolt and through the reappropriation of language against “the gaze”, she thus redefines space in a way that destabilizes borders

Broken glass case Alain Mabanckou, Ananda Devi Sigh, The Other Dancing Dracius Suzanne and The Sacred Night Tahar Ben Jelloun". 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. He has the title of "figures of the search for identity." It is striving to show how the pattern of the search for identity unfolds in the corpus. The third axis hermeneutic or interpretation undertaking further analysis and carry a number of interrogation on the concepts covered in the analytical sequence
