Francographies: Identite Et Alterite Dans Les Espaces Francophones Europeens

First presented at the March 2008 conference held at the U. of Edinburgh in Scotland, the 23 papers and roundtable discussion included in this proceedings concern the large, but neglected body of French-language work produced outside of France. Belgium, Switzerland, Guinea-Bissau, and Algeria are some of the countries whose writers and publications are represented, with works ranging through the 19th and 20th centuries to the present. Post-colonialism, feminism, and the writing of immigrants are some of the themes. All of the essays, and the roundtable discussion on identity and alterity, are in French. Lacks an index.
