FREN 438 CG - Francophone Literature

Francophone Literature is an upper-level literature course designed for advanced French learners. Francophone literature will expose students to the literary productions in a variety of genres from former French colonies (Haiti, Senegal, Cote d’Ivoire, Morocco, Algeria) along with other parts of the French speaking world (Martinique, Guadeloupe, Quebec, Nouvelle Caledonie) and offer strategies for literary analysis and interpretation. Grounded in post-colonial theory, the course will provide cultural, historical, and geo-political contexts for the works studied (colonization and slavery, le deracinement, la Negritude, decolonization, sociolinguistics and language politics).
