Book Synopsis La population de la Guadeloupe by : Raymond Boutin
Download or read book La population de la Guadeloupe written by Raymond Boutin and published by Ibis Rouge. This book was released on 2006 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans la conscience collective des Guadeloupéens, les deux dates les plus chargées de valeurs symboliques sont sans aucun doute 1848 et 1946. L'historiographie contemporaine, elle aussi, souligne la place de ces deux événements que sont l'abolition de l'esclavage et la départementalisation. Ces deux dates ont eu une influence considérable sur la démographie de la Guadeloupe, d'où le choix de l'auteur de ce cadre pour son étude de sa population. Il s'agit pour lui, en se plaçant sur le long terme, de saisir les mutations de cette population dans le domaine démographique, mais aussi dans ses comportements.
Book Synopsis L'abolition de l'esclavage à la Guadeloupe (1848) by : Adolphe Gatine
Download or read book L'abolition de l'esclavage à la Guadeloupe (1848) written by Adolphe Gatine and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2012 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Né à Paris le 30 mars 1805, Adolphe Gatine était "avocat aux conseils". Sous la Monarchie de Juillet, il se consacra à la défense des hommes de couleur libres. Il défend ainsi en 1834 les libres condamnés à la suite de l'affaire de la Grande Anse (Martinique) et s'engage pour la cause des esclaves qui revendiquent leur liberté par des moyens de droit. En raison de cette activité anti-esclavagiste, Gatine va faire partie de la Commission chargée, sous la présidence de Victor Schoelcher, de préparer l'abolition de 1848. Au sein de cette Commission, il est l'initiateur de la création des Jurys cantonaux. En mars 1848, le Gouvernement provisoire l'envoie en mission en Guadeloupe pour y appliquer les décrets du 27 avril. Animé d'une grande foi en sa mission, ce juriste compétent va se révéler, de juin à octobre, un véritable administrateur, visitant les communes et les plantations pour consolider les acquis de l'abolition et organiser les nouvelles modalités du travail. De ces "quatre mois de gouvernement", Adolphe Gatine a laissé un récit-plaidoyer qui paraîtra à Paris dès 1849 sous le titre "L'abolition de l'esclavage à la Guadeloupe (1848)". Introduit dans cette nouvelle édition par l'historien Jacques Adélaïde- Merlande, ce récit nous révèle l'ampleur de l'événement qu'a constitué l'abolition de l'esclavage et fait apparaître les nombreux défis (statuts des travailleurs, salaires et droits, vie citoyenne...) de la nouvelle société guadeloupéenne.

Book Synopsis Postcoloniality by : Margaret A. Majumdar
Download or read book Postcoloniality written by Margaret A. Majumdar and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postcolonial theory is one of the key issues of scholarly debates worldwide; debates, so the author argues, which are rather sterile and characterized by a repetitive reworking of old hackneyed issues, focussing on cultural questions of language and identity in particular. She explores the divergent responses to the debates on globalization.
Download or read book Mapping a Tradition written by Sam Haigh and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2000 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, critical interest in francophone literature has become increasingly pronounced. In the case of the French Caribbean, the work of several writers (Aime Cesaire, Frantz Fanon, Edouard Glissant and Patrick Chamoiseau, for example) has gained international recognition, and has formed a vital part of more general debates on history, culture, language and identity in the post colonial world. The majority of such writers, however, have been male and, perhaps recalling the preference that France has always shown for the island, have come in large part from Martinique. Mapping a Tradition: Francophone Women's Writing from Guadeloupe aims to explore a different side of francophone Caribbean writing through the examination of selected novels by Jacqueline Manicom, Michele Lacrosil, Maryse Conde, Simone Schwarz-Bart and Dany Bebel-Gisler. Placing the work of these writers in the context of that of their better-known, male counterparts, this study argues that it has provided an important mode of intervention in, and disruption of, a literary tradition which has failed to address questions of sexual difference and has often excluded issues relating to French Caribbean women. At the same time, this study suggests that Guadeloupean women's writing of the last thirty years may he seen to constitute a 'tradition' in itself, replete with its own influences and inheritances. At once within, and outside the 'dominant' tradition, women's writing from Guadeloupe - and Martinique - has come to occupy a position at the forefront of contemporary efforts to expand and redefine a still-burgeoning corpus of literary and theoretical work.
Book Synopsis France in the South Pacific by : Denise Fisher
Download or read book France in the South Pacific written by Denise Fisher and published by ANU E Press. This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France is a Pacific power, with three territories, a military presence, and extensive investments. Once seen by many as a colonial interloper in the South Pacific, by the early 2000s, after it ended nuclear testing in French Polynesia and negotiated transitional Accords responding to independence demands in New Caledonia, France seems to have become generally accepted as a regional partner, even if its efforts concentrate on its own territories rather than the independent island states. But Frances future in the region has yet to be secured. By 2014 it is to have handed over a set of agreed autonomies to the New Caledonian government, before an independence referendum process begins. Past experience suggests that a final resolution of the status of New Caledonia will be divisive and could lead once again to violent confrontations. In French Polynesia, calls continue for independence and for treatment under UN decolonisation procedures, which France opposes. Other island leaders are watching, so far putting faith in the Noumea Accord, but wary of the final stages. The issues and possible solutions are more complex than the French Pacific island population of 515,000 would suggest. Combining historical background with political and economic analysis, this comprehensive study offers vital insight into the intricate history -- and problematic future -- of several of Australias key neighbours in the Pacific and to the priorities and options of the European country that still rules them. It is aimed at policy-makers, scholars, journalists, businesspeople, and others who want to familiarise themselves with the issues as Frances role in the region is redefined in the years to come.
Download or read book Freedom Time written by Gary Wilder and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-14 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freedom Time reconsiders decolonization from the perspectives of Aimé Césaire (Martinique) and Léopold Sédar Senghor (Senegal) who, beginning in 1945, promoted self-determination without state sovereignty. As politicians, public intellectuals, and poets they struggled to transform imperial France into a democratic federation, with former colonies as autonomous members of a transcontinental polity. In so doing, they revitalized past but unrealized political projects and anticipated impossible futures by acting as if they had already arrived. Refusing to reduce colonial emancipation to national independence, they regarded decolonization as an opportunity to remake the world, reconcile peoples, and realize humanity’s potential. Emphasizing the link between politics and aesthetics, Gary Wilder reads Césaire and Senghor as pragmatic utopians, situated humanists, and concrete cosmopolitans whose postwar insights can illuminate current debates about self-management, postnational politics, and planetary solidarity. Freedom Time invites scholars to decolonize intellectual history and globalize critical theory, to analyze the temporal dimensions of political life, and to question the territorialist assumptions of contemporary historiography.
Book Synopsis Inheritance and Innovation in a Colonial Language by : William Jennings
Download or read book Inheritance and Innovation in a Colonial Language written by William Jennings and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a fresh approach to analysing how new languages are created, combining in-depth colonial history and empirical, usage-based linguistics. Focusing on a rarely studied language, the authors employ this dual methodology to reconstruct how multilingual individuals drew on their perception of Romance and West African languages to form French Guianese Creole. In doing so, they facilitate the application of a usage-based approach to language while simultaneously contributing significantly to the debate on creole origins. This innovative volume is sure to appeal to students and scholars of language history, creolisation and languages in contact. Chapter 3 is published open access under a CC BY 4.0 license.

Book Synopsis French Emigration to Great Britain in Response to the French Revolution by : Juliette Reboul
Download or read book French Emigration to Great Britain in Response to the French Revolution written by Juliette Reboul and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines diverse encounters between the British community and the thousands of French individuals who sought haven in the British Isles as they left revolutionary and Imperial France. This painstaking research into the emigrant archival and memorial presence in Britain uncovers a wealth of underused and alternative sources on this controversial population displacement. These include open letters and classified advertisements published in British newspapers, insurance contracts, as well as lists of addresses and passports drawn up by local authorities. These sources question the construction by British loyalists and French émigré elites of a stereotyped emigrant figure and their use of the trauma of forced displacement to advance ideological agendas. In fact, public and private discourses on governmental systems, foreigners, political and religious dissent, and the economic survival of French emigrants, demonstrate the heterogeneity of the responses to emigration in Britain. Ultimately, this book narrates a story in which the emigrant community and its host have been often unnoticeably yet fundamentally transformed by their encounter, in both practical and ideological domains.

Book Synopsis The Concept of Negritude in the Poetry of Leopold Sedar Senghor by : Sylvia Washington Ba
Download or read book The Concept of Negritude in the Poetry of Leopold Sedar Senghor written by Sylvia Washington Ba and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negritude has been defined by Léopold Sédar Senghor as "the sum of the cultural values of the black world as they are expressed in the life, the institutions, and the works of black men." Sylvia Washington Bâ analyzes Senghor's poetry to show how the concept of negritude infuses it at every level. A biographical sketch describes his childhood in Senegal, his distinguished academic career in France, and his election as President of Senegal. Themes of alienation and exile pervade Senghor's poetry, but it was by the opposition of his sensitivity and values to those of Europe that he was able to formulate his credo. Its key theme, and the supreme value of black African civilization, is the concept of life forces, which are not attributes or accidents of being, but the very essence of being. Life is an essentially dynamic mode of being for the black African, and it has been Senghor's achievement to communicate African intensity and vitality through his use of the nuances, subtleties, and sonorities of the French language. In the final chapter Sylvia Washington Bâ discusses the future of Senghor's belief that the black man's culture should be recognized as valid not simply as a matter of human justice, but because the values of negritude could be instrumental in the reintegration of positive values into western civilization and the reorientation of contemporary man toward life and love.
