The focus is a transnational, polyphonic writing project entitled ‘Rwanda: écrire par devoir de mémoire’ (Rwanda: Writing by Duty of Memory), undertaken in 1998 by a group of nine African authors. This work emphasizes the Afropolitan cultural frame in which the texts were conceived and written. Instead of using Western and Eurocentric tropes, this volume looks at a so-called ‘minority trauma’: an African conflict situated in a collectivist society and written about by writers from African origin. This approach enables a more situated study, in which it becomes possible to draw out the local notions of .ubuntu., oral testimonies, mourning traditions, healing and storytelling strategies, and the presence of the ‘invisible’. As these texts are written in French and to date not all of them have been translated into English, most academic research has been done in French. This book thus assists inconnecting English-speaking readers not only to a set of texts written in French with significant literary and cultural value, but also to francophone trauma studies research.. | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Tutsis genocide; Rwandan genocide; Literary representations of genocide; ubuntu; Oral testimonies; Genoci | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-42093-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-42095-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-42093-2Series ISSN 2634-6419 Series E-ISSN 2634-6427 | issn_series | 2634-6419 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
