Tulane University 2006-2007 Catalog
Course:
FREN 305 Literature in Exile (3)
Prof. Watts. A presentation of recent works by writers born in the French-speaking former colonies of Africa and the Caribbean, but living and writing elsewhere (e.g., Paris, Montreal, Brooklyn). Some of the questions the course will endeavor to answer are: What happens to cultures when they are displaced? How does one conceive of "home" when in exile, and is it possible to return? Is "rootlessness" a source of creativity, or a detriment to it? Reading and discussions entirely in English. A writing practicum is available.
