The Wounded Breast

This is a rare multicultural perspective on disease, particularly cancer, in which the author takes on a journey through the medical establishments, cultural taboos, gender-tagged attitudes and personal stories of different civilisations. It could also be defined as a quest on how human logic relates to illness. The writing itself blends the diary, personal letters, poems and songs with excerpts from some of the foremost authorities in cancer research, producing an effect upon the reader akin to that which she experienced herself, as she moved back and forth between the emotional and physical shock of the cancer experience and the objective scientific data she uncovered. She begins to find c...

Francophone Women Writers

This anthology seeks to introduce women writers in the "global" Francophone world by investigating the place of feminist, postcolonial and cross-cultural theories in interpreting women francophone literature. The book also allows the reader to examine the extent to which women writers reflect or negate the conventional archetypes of Francophone literature, how they reinvent the political, cultural and critical discourse of their time and place, and create their own identity from objectification to subjectivity. The ambition of this anthology is to explore these themes at a time when globalization is redefining the concepts of language, identity, space and history, and transforming the rappor...

Evelyne Accad

Ayant publié de nombreux livres, poèmes, articles et critiques des années 70 à nos jours, Evelyne Accad est sans doute une des écrivains francophones la plus importante de nos jours. Son écriture est une vaste pérégrination. Aussi bien au Proche-0rient, en Afrique, en Europe, aux Etats-Unis, l'oeuvre d'Evelyne Accad est dévouée à la Femme : celle qui subit l'excision, l'abus, la guerre, la violence, l'injustice, et le cancer.

Les écrivaines contemporaines et les mythes. Le remembrement au féminin

Metka Zupančič a réalisé une série d’essais sur dix femmes francophones, qui vivent entre le Québec, l’Ontario, la Belgique, la Tunisie et la France. Elle y adopte une orientation critique qui se nourrit du mythe orphique et de ses avatars, tels qu’on peut les trouver dans leurs oeuvres – où le démembrement se voit remplacé par ce qu’elle appelle le remembrement (terme qui fait référence à la reconstitution de terrains agricoles à partir de parcelles dispersées). Ces écrivaines, avançant en écriture et en maturité, ressentent la nécessité de modifier les rapports avec les femmes tels qu’ils avaient été promus par les féministes des années 1970. Le contact ...
