This course is addressed to Master 2 students, (Literature and civilization option). It deals mainly with creative writing in English from countries formerly colonized by Britain or France. The course explores recent literary fiction, within the context of local histories, politics and cultural patterns, and their reactions to colonial and neo-colonial forces. Thus, students will be introduced to recent theoretical approaches to understanding postcoloniality, and will gain a better insight into how these issues relate to Africa’s own history of colonialism in general, and that of the Algerian case in particular.
