Abstract:
Abstract This article argues that Suzan-Lori Parks’ Pulitzer-prize winning play Topdog/Underdog (1999) mobilizes a conspiracy theory concept of anti-black violence in America. The highly discursive play depicts a pair of black brothers named Lincoln and Booth as they banter, argue, and compete with each other over games of three-card monte. In the final scene of the play, the brothers fulfil the destiny inscribed in their names: Booth shoots and kills his brother Lincoln after a dispute over their meager inheritance. The play frames this final act of brutal fratricide as a form of political as

Abstract:
Abstract From a cultural fad of Confederate flags to a spate of schools named after Confederate generals, the 1954 Brown v. Board decision revived the memory of the US Civil War. In their collective effort of “massive resistance,” white southerners considered themselves carrying on the legacy of their Confederate ancestors, rebelling against the federal government and insisting upon states’ rights. In response to this revival, many mid-century writers revised Civil War memory. Ralph Ellison, for example, considered the Brown decision as yet another battle in an ongoing Civil War. The works of

Abstract:
Cette thèse en Études Théâtrales vise à théoriser la tension « dramaturgie / jazz » à travers l’œuvre de l’autrice dramatique africaine américaine Suzan-Lori Parks. Née en 1963, Suzan-Lori Parks est aussi célèbre aux États-Unis qu’elle est inconnue en France. Traversé par la mémoire de l’esclavage et de la traite négrière, son théâtre dé(re)configure l’Histoire pour inverser le point de vue dominant, fabriquer un nouveau récit et apporter réparation aux vivants et aux morts. Aborder son écriture au prisme du jazz, c’est inclure dans l’espace de la réflexion la « double c

Abstract:
Les théâtres afro-descendants contemporains de France, du Brésil et des États-Unis partagent des enjeux esthétiques qui participent d'une poétique commune : la truculence. Les dramaturgies de Koffi Kwahulé, de Suzan-Lori Parks et de Marcio Meirelles (Bando de Teatro Olodum) permettent tout particulièrement de poser les jalons esthétiques et philosophiques de cette poétique contemporaine des corps. La traversée, l'excès (esthétique de la subversion : grotesque, carnavalesque), le salut (philosophie du marronnage) et le bouillonnement (la vibration-jazz qui en résulte), les quatre sèmes qui défi
