Abstract:
<p class="Corps">In <em>Khalil</em>, Yasmina Khadra paints a realistic portrait of a terrorist. This novel written in 2018 and developed from a real fact, blurs the spaces of reality and fiction to reveal the apparently unavowable thoughts of a jihadist. It is this detour strategy that this article will seek to clarify. It will be a question of studying how Yasmina Khadra organizes a scrambling of these two worlds, the fictional space and the realistic space, located at the edge of each other, to make them interact, confront each other but also to question.</p>

Abstract:
Based on three novels by the contemporary Algerian novelist Yasmina Khadra, the study discusses didactic and aesthetic features of the literary text. While essentially set in the Arab world, Khadra’s fiction links to western encyclopaedia and journalistic discourse. In relating to this part of the reader’s experience, the novels produce an impression of proximity to the peripheral real, and a sense of responsibility. It is suggested that this interdiscursivity be viewed not as a deviation from literature but as inherent to literary discourse itself; the text comments and constitutes simultaneously. Emphasising the hybridity of literary means and didactical drive, the study proposes that Khadra’s work be labelled “didafiction”.

Abstract:
Yasmina Khadra tente dans sa trilogie constituée des Hirondelles de Kaboul, L’Attentat et Les Sirènes de Bagdad de dissiper le malentendu entre Orient et Occident. La voie royale pour ce faire est d’entreprendre une recherche de la vérité, non seulement de ces deux entités ou de l’une d’elles, mais de l’homme en général et du monde tel qu’il est perçu, senti, conçu et intériorisé. Mais comment peut-on adhérer à une telle entreprise en sachant pertinemment la dimension fictionnelle de ces textes ? Toute l’originalité, tout l’intérêt de cette recherche, qui n’est pas seulement menée par l’auteur mais qui devrait aussi se poursuivre dans l’acte de lecture, est justement dans cette conception et cet abord du roman comme lieu dédié à la connaissance du vrai en investissant des formes diverses de savoirs et des puissances humaines en provenance de la raison et de l’imaginaire, du corps et de l’esprit, exprimant la rigueur et la fantaisie, l’ordonnancement et le chaos qui caractérisent l’existence dans toutes ses manifestations
In his trilogy The Swallows of Kabul, The Attack, and The Sirens of Baghdad, Yasmina Khadra has tried to settle down the misunderstanding between the East and the West. The royal path for this end is to take up a quest for truth not only for one or both of these entities, but for Man in general and for the whole world as perceived, felt, conceived and internalized. But how can we adhere to such an enterprise in spite of the fictional load of these texts? This framework that lie all the originality and interest of this research Ŕ which is led not only by the author, but should be pursued in the act of reading as well Ŕ is in fact in the conception and perspective of the novel as a locus for knowledge and truth by exploiting a variety of types of knowledge and human strengths evolving from reason and imagination, on body and spirit, expressing rigour and fantasy, order and chaos ; matters which characterize existence in all its various manifestations

Abstract:
L’Autorité dissimulée – l’autorité manifeste. L’écriture de la violence chez Yasmina Khadra. (Dissimulated authority – manifest authority. Yasmina Khadra’s representation of violence.)  This study examines the representation of violence in two novels by Algerian author Yasmina Khadra (1955 - ): Les Agneaux du Seigneur (1998) and À quoi rêvent les loups (1999). The narrative techniques employed in these texts and, more directly, the assertions made by the author in interviews and autobiographical works give the impression of a writer aiming to impose on the reader a specific view of the Algerian civil war (1992-1998) while at the same time asserting that the novels are objective representations of the same historical period.   This authoritative position, it is argued, is surprising in the light of two discourses. According to the first, events of extreme violence are fundamentally inexpressible and therefore any work of art dealing with such events must find a way to express this inexpressibility. Secondly, many historians, journalists and writers argue that the civil war in Algeria was particularly ungraspable, and eludes being rendered affirmatively in any work, fictional or not.   The study aims to explain how Yasmina Khadra construes his authority in the fictional texts and via his performance in the media. The concepts of a dissimulated authority and a manifest authority are conceived in order to elucidate the ambiguous discourse created by Khadra in which we find both a need to convince the reader of the legitimacy of his rendering of the violent events and a tendency to explicitly take control of and guide our interpretation of the novels.   The final chapter of the dissertation argues that Khadra’s prolific use of animal vocabulary at once dissimulates and makes manifest the idea of an author wanting to impose certain ideas and ‘truths’ on the reader. In the conclusion it is suggested that the violence of the novels extends beyond the subject matter into Khadra's very approach to writing: that the two novels do not so much reflect the idea of the violence as a creator of chaos, but rather, in browbeating the reader into a passive role, end up imitating the very forcefulness and single-mindedness of violence itself.   The methodological approach of the study consists of a close reading as well as a thorough contextualization of the novels. The classical narratological concepts established by Gérard Genette are used to examine the dominant narrative modes of the stories. In explaining the ways in which Khadra proceeds to persuade the reader of the truth-value of the texts the theory on realistic discourse developed by Philippe Hamon constitutes an important reference.

Full text
Abstract:
Using as example twelve novels by Robert Bober, Michel Houellebecq and Yasmina Khadra, the dissertation discusses the aesthetic and pragmatic implications of integrating didactically historical reference in fictional narrative and personal theme. Rather than reducing the works of Bober, Houellebecq and Khadra to tendency novels sculptured to pass on a predetermined message, the study discusses the aesthetic values created by didactical play. Not only does historical reference form the setting of the novels but the feelings and ideas expressed by the characters also point outwards, challenging journalistic discourse and historical fact. After underlining the obvious heritage from social realism, littérature engagée and Tendenzliteratur, the study points to the possibility of a reading mode that uncannily marries self forgetting imaginary and historical learning. Finding no comprehensive description within existing theories of genre, the thesis proposes the neologism “didafiction” for a subcategory to the novel that, by systematic interdiscursive play, call for engagement without subscribing to pre-existent doctrines. The lessons given by this literature, rather than operating through a traditionally pedagogic rhetoric, work through sophisticated artistic procedures that integrate encyclopaedia and ethics in a personal theme structure.

Full text
Abstract:
L’ambition de François Rastier est d’unifier le mot, la phrase et le texte au sein d’une sémantique interprétative coordonnée en paliers textuels micro, méso et macrosémantiques. L’œuvre en tant que totalité signifiante se définit par la somme de ses parties, et le titre par la somme de ses traits (morphèmes, lexies, sémèmes, etc.). Pour cette thèse que nous présentons sur les interactions sémantiques entre titres et œuvres, il s’agit de rechercher la production, la dissémination, la propagation / distribution des traits sémantiques et tensifs impliqués par le titre. La nécessité étant de comprendre du point de vue textuel le sens des sémèmes. Nous exploitons donc la sémantique interprétative de François Rastier et la sémiotique tensive de Claude Zilberberg comme cadres théoriques en analysant le titre d’un texte comme une condensation ou groupement structuré de sèmes. Notre hypothèse de travail étant que le titre est un interprétant pour l’œuvre. L’interprétant, ce sont des données (savoirs) sémiotiques qui permettent de construire une interprétation. Le titre permet d’actualiser, de virtualiser ou de changer le degré de saillance de l’œuvre. On se demande en problématique comment les sèmes d’un titre sont générés dans les unités de complexité comme le corpus ? Quels sèmes des titres sont inhérents / afférents, actualisés / virtualisés, spécifiques / génériques et quels sont les degrés de systématicité (idiolectal, relations réflexives, transitives et semi-symboliques) qui les structurent ?
The ambition of Francis Rastier is to unify word, sentence and text into an interpretive semantics structured in micro, meso and macro semantic levels. A literary work is defined as a totality of meaning, and its title as lots of features (morphemes, lexical and semantic features). In this thesis on semantic interactions between title and literary work, the aim is to study the production, the dissemination, spread /distribution of semantic and tensive features involved by the title. To understand the meaning of semantic features in a textual point of view, we choose Zilberberg theorical frames. The title is considered as a condensation of a structured organization of semantic features. We work on the hypothesis that the title is one of the interpretants of a literary work. Those interpretants give semiotic information on interpretation. The title allows actualize, virtualize and change the saliency level. The question is how semes of the title are generated as units in a complex and holistic corpus? Which semes of the title are inherent/afferent, actualized/virtualized, specific/generic and what are their systematic structuring levels (idiolectal, reflexive or transitive relations, semi-symbolism)?

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse porte sur l’étude comparée des œuvres de trois romanciers contemporains : Andreu Martín, Yasmina Khadra et Giorgio Todde. Si ces trois écrivains diffèrent par la nationalité, la langue et le style d’écriture, ils ont élu à un moment ou à un autre de leur carrière le roman policier et plus particulièrement le « noir » comme genre d’écriture. L’analyse de leur production policière de 1980 à 2010 tend à montrer les points de convergence et de divergence révélateurs d’une présupposée culture méditerranéenne. Entre Espagne, Algérie et Italie la Méditerranée s’impose comme espace géographique commun, mais également comme lieu de rencontre de différentes cultures. Les objectifs prioritaires ont été d’inscrire dans un cadre théorique les enjeux du roman policier face à la modernité et plus particulièrement les aspects significatifs à la vue des caractéristiques des trois auteurs comme la relation à l’Histoire, l’articulation entre individuel et collectif ou encore le rapport entre Histoire, mythe et vérité. Les particularités de chacun des trois romanciers et l’insertion de leur production dans le cadre géographique spécifique de leur pays d’origine constituent un axe de recherche majeur de la thèse. Pour ne pas restreindre le champ d’investigation il a été opéré une ouverture des perspectives : la Méditerranée comme espace géographique, historique et culturel en partage ; le concept d’insularité comme double condition, à la fois géographique et d’esprit ; ou encore le « noir méditerranéen » ont ainsi bénéficié d’un développement particulier
This doctorial dissertation encompasses a comparative study of three contemporary authors: Andreu Martín, Yasmina Khadra and Giorgio Todde. Although the three writers differ in their nationality, language and writing style, they have all selected the detective novel and more particularly hardboiled fiction as their genre of choice. The body of this study focuses on the works created between 1980 and 2010. Through the analysis of these novels several revealing commonalities and differences have been discovered about a possible “Mediterranean culture”. Whether it be Spain, Algeria or Italy, the Mediterranean emerges then not only as a shared geographical space, but also as a meeting point between these diverse cultures. The principal objectives of this study are to place the specific tools and aspects of the detective novel within the theoretical domain of “modernity”, and an analysis of the significant articulations made by these three authors such as: their use of History, their representation of “the individual” versus “the collective”, and the relationship between History, myth, and truth in their novels. The particularities of all three novelists and the insertion of their literary production within the specific geographical environment of their country of origin constitute the focal point and principal axis of research of this dissertation. However, an open perspective has lead to the analysis of various concepts which particularly develop an understanding of that focal point. Among them the Mediterranean as a geographical, historical and cultural space shared by many; the concept of insularity as a double condition, as in a condition that is at the same time geographical and emotional; and the concept of a “Mediterranean hardboiled” fiction have revealed themselves as the most significant
Questa tesi si basa sull’analisi comparata delle opere di tre scrittori contemporanei: Andreu Martín, Yasmina Khadra eGiorgio Todde. Sebbene questi tre romanzieri differiscano per nazionalità, lingua e stile di scrittura, si accomunanoper aver eletto ad un dato momento della loro carriera il romanzo poliziesco e più precisamente il “noir” come generedi scrittura. L’analisi della loro produzione poliziesca, dal 1980 al 2010, tende a dimostrare i punti di convergenza edivergenza rivelatori di una presupposta cultura mediterranea. Tra la Spagna, l’Algeria e l’Italia il Mediterraneos’impone come spazio geografico comune, così come luogo d’incontro di diverse culture. Gli obiettivi prioritari sonostati quelli di iscrivere in un quadro teorico i meccanismi del romanzo poliziesco, il suo rapportarsi alla modernità epiù precisamente gli elementi significativi che emergono dallo studio delle caratteristiche dei tre autori. Tra questi sievidenziano la relazione alla Storia, il rapporto tra l’individuale e il collettivo o ancora l’articolarsi tra Storia, mito everità. Le caratteristiche di ognuno dei tre autori e l’inserimento delle loro produzioni letterarie nello specifico quadrogeografico dei rispettivi paesi d’origine costituiscono un asse di ricerca della tesi. Per non limitare il campod’investigazione si è proceduto ad un ampliamento delle piste di ricerca: il Mediterraneo come spazio geografico,storico e culturale in comune; il concetto d’insularità come doppia condizione, geografica e d’animo e infine il “noirmediterraneo”

Abstract:
La présente recherche s’inscrit au plan scientifique dans la réflexion contemporaine menée sur l’élève lecteur et ses modes d’appropriation et de reconfiguration du texte lu. L’objet de ce travail est de mettre en évidence les problèmes spécifiques à la réception du personnage en liant étroitement pédagogie de la lecture littéraire et compétences culturelles, affectives et sociales requises et développées chez le lecteur dans le contexte scolaire tunisien. Notre interrogation principale consiste à nous demander si les modes d’approche du texte axés sur un rapport d’identification au personnage favorisent la motivation à la lecture et contribuent par là même à l’élaboration du sens et à la construction identitaire des jeunes lecteurs. Les investigations menées sont centrées sur deux sujets privilégiés : le statut du personnage romanesque dans le contexte pré-universitaire et son rôle dans l’appropriation du phénomène littéraire au lycée. L’objectif étant d’illustrer comment les différentes émotions peuvent devenir d’importants alliés dans la construction du sens.Une fois posés le cadre conceptuel de la recherche relative au personnage et l’état des lieux des savoirs sur la réception des lycéens, la réflexion se développe à partir de l’exemple de la lecture de la trilogie de Yasmina Khadra. Il s’agit d’un exemple à partir duquel nous proposons des perspectives didactiques pour la construction d’une façon de lire, à la fois participative et analytique
This scientific research is part of contemporary thinking on the student-led drive and its modes of appropriation and reconfiguration of the text. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the specific problems at the reception of the character by closely linking teaching of reading literary and cultural skills, as well as emotional and social skills required and developed at the level of the reader in the Tunisian school context. Our main question is to ask whether the ways of approaching a text-based report identifying the character promote reading motivation and thus contribute to the development ofmeaning and identity construction of young readers. The investigations focus on two main issues: the status of the fictional character in the pre-university context and its role in the appropriation of the literary phenomenon in high school. The objective is to illustrate how different emotions can become important components in the construction of meaning.Once laid the conceptual framework of research on the character and the inventory of knowledge on the reception of students, thinking will develop from the example of reading the trilogy by Yasmina Khadra. This is an example from which we offer didactic opportunities to build a way of reading, both analytical and participatory

Full text
Abstract:
More than any other literary genre, the Algerian novel has been read as a response to Algeria’s colonial past and as a proving ground for the articulation of a postcolonial national identity. From Kateb Yacine’s anticolonial allegory Nedjma to Kamal Daoud’s attempt to grapple with the legacies of Orientalism in Meursault, contre-enquête, the Algerian novel seems to be caught in a dialectical relationship with the former colonizer, France. Or is it? After a brief survey of post-independence Maghrebi texts that look to other colonial sites, in particular Palestine, to actualize anticolonial critique in the postcolonial period, I examine a series of Algerian novels that activate what I call the transcolonial imagination, connecting heterogenous (post)colonial sites in a critical and comparative exploration of coloniality. Through readings of novels by Ahlam Mosteghanemi, Anouar Benmalek, Yasmina Khadra, and Rachid Boudjedra, I show that the contemporary Algerian novel continues to excavate traces of the colonial, broadly conceived, in the purportedly postcolonial present, casting the Palestinian question, the post-9/11 war on terror, and the 2010-2011 uprisings within a multidirectional and palimpsestic history of the colonial condition writ large.

Abstract:
With my reading of Yasmina Khadra’s novel The Sirens of Baghdad (2006), I demonstrate that listening is not a given in any social exchange across either ethnic or gender lines: if no motive or desire to listen is present, voices go unheard and are, in effect, silenced. My analysis of Khadra’s work is framed by a discussion of both visual and aural sirens in pop culture and media. I conclude with an analysis of how sirens redirect narrative focus and argue that, as literary cut sound, sirens are emblematic of the call to listen—they demand focus and attention.
