From the supplier: Assia Djebar's novel, 'L'amour, la fantasia,' arouses hatred against French colonialism by its detailed recollection of the abuses suffered by Algerians in colonists' hands. It recounts the death by suffocation of the whole Ouled Riah tribe resistant to French rule. A certain Colonel Pellissier had carefully documented how he had ordered the smoking of the cave where the tribe, numbering about 1,500 people, had sought refuge.

From the supplier: Assia Djebar's novel, 'Vaste est la prison,' focuses on the origins of language and writing. Aside from dwelling on the Arab and Berber linguistic past, the book also deals with the song of writing enlivened by imaginations of its resonance. 'Vaste est la prison' reveals the frustration and the impossibility of women from the Maghreb to live their lives to the fullest because of the culture that constantly regards women with suspicion.

From the supplier: Algerian writer Assia Djebar believes that her being selected winner of the 1996 Neustadt International Prize for Literature has assured her of a global sympathetic ear for the plight of Muslim women. The award had made her both joyful and sad; joy, because the world has finally known the sufferings of long repressed women, and sadness, because of the number of her colleagues who had died in their efforts to lay bare the excesses of Muslim tradition against women.

Kapitel: Pierre Bourdieu, Assia Djebar, Aljaksandr Milinkewitsch, Jérôme Carcopino, Georges-Antoine Rochegrosse, Louis-Jules Gernet, Évariste Lévi-Provençal, André Strohl, Edmond Doutté, René Maunier. Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Pierre Bourdieu (1 August 1930 - 23 January 2002) was a French sociologist, anthropologist, and philosopher. Bourdieu pioneered investigative frameworks and terminologies such as cultural, social, and symbolic capital, and the concepts of habitus, field or location, and symbolic violence to reveal the dynamics of power relations in social life. His work emphasized the role of practice and embodiment or forms in social dynamics and worldview construction, often in opposition to universalized Western philosophical traditions. He built upon the theories of Ludwig Wittgenstein, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Edmund Husserl, Georges Canguilhem, Karl Marx, Gaston Bachelard, Max Weber, Émile Durkheim, Erwin Panofsky, and Marcel Mauss. A notable influence on Bourdieu was Blaise Pascal, after whom Bourdieu titled his Pascalian Meditations. Bourdieu rejected the idea of the intellectual "prophet", or the "total intellectual", as embodied by Sartre. His best known book is Distinction: A Social Critique of the Judgment of Taste, in which he argues that judgments of taste are related to social position. His argument is put forward by an original combination of social theory and data from surveys, photographs and interviews, in an attempt to reconcile difficulties such as how to understand the subject within objective structures. In the process, he tried to reconcile the influences of both external social structures and subjective experience on the individual (see structure and agency). One of the principal players in French intellectual life, Bourdieu became the "intellectual reference" for movements opposed to neo-liberalism and globalisation that developed in France and elsewhere during the 1990s.

From the supplier: A French-speaking Algerian woman who has lived abroad to flee the social repression suffered by Arab women, is haunted by her native Arabic language. Despite her father's warning to discard Arabic because of his desire to see her free from the restraints of Muslim tradition, she starts to long for Arabic. She describes how Arabic evoked memories of Algerian culture and how the French language stirred up past abuses of French colonizers in Algeria.

From the supplier: Assia Djebar has been named winner of the 1996 Neustadt International Prize for Literature for her literary works exposing the plight of Algerian women. She has articulated the sufferings and desires of Arab women who have been long subject to political, sexual and educational repression. Djebar argues that by hiding their women, Arab men also hide a part of themselves and that by oppressing them, the Muslim menfolk also oppress themselves.

From the supplier: The violence that pervades the first three novels of Assia Djebar's Algerian Quartet reveals the author's determination to uphold peace and heal emotional and cultural wounds. Her commitment to induce healing by facing violence overrides her reluctance to engage in autobiographical writing which she equates with suicide. This determination prodded her to finish 'Fantasia: An Algerian Cavalcade,' 'A Sister to Scheherazade' and 'Vaste est la prison.'

From the supplier: The translation of Assia Djebar's works, particularly her film, 'Femmes d'Alger dans leur appartement,' demands the interpretation of her sounds and silences. The silences, whether forced or voluntary, depict women who keenly observe external events and adopt them as their own. Translating Djebar's works is challenging because the meaning of her works goes beyond the traditional by virtue of her historical and musical background.

From the supplier: Assia Djebar rewrites Arab women's history in her films and novels by adopting women's orally transmitted knowledge of the past rather than written records. The vivid memories and stifled voices of Muslim women have played important roles in overwriting their history amid inconsistencies between documents and oral tradition. Djebar favors oral tradition not only because it explores memory gaps but also because written records have been shown to be untrue.

Excerpt: Frantz Omar Fanon (July 20, 1925 December 6, 1961) was a psychiatrist, philosopher, revolutionary, and author from Martinique. His work remains influential in the fields of post-colonial studies and critical theory. Fanon is perhaps the pre-eminent thinker of the 20th century on the issue of decolonization and the psychopathology of colonization. His works have incited and inspired anti-colonial liberation movements for more than four decades. Frantz Fanon was born on the Caribbean island of Martinique, which was then a French colony and is now a French département. He was born into a mixed family background: his father was the descendent of African slaves, and his mother was said to be an illegitimate child of mixed race, whose white ancestors came from Strasbourg in Alsace. Fanon's family was socioeconomically middle-class, and they could afford the fees for the Lycée Schoelcher, then the most prestigious high school in Martinique, where the writer Aimé Césaire was one of his teachers. After France fell to the Nazis in 1940, Vichy French naval troops were blockaded on Martinique. Forced to remain on the island, French soldiers became "authentic racists." Many accusations of harassment and sexual misconduct arose. The abuse ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=95185 ... Read more

From the supplier: Assia Djebar confirms Frantz Fanon's views on the relationship among the veil, body and self-image of Algerian women. In 'A Dying Colonialism,' Fanon celebrates the freedom and empowerment of Algerian women who have taken part and won in the Algerian Revolution. On the other hand, Djebar's 'Women of Algiers in Their Apartments' reveals the anxiety over the sense of nakedness felt by unveiled Algerian women in post-revolutionary Algeria.

From the supplier: Algerian author Assia Djebar's film, 'La nouba des femmes du Mont Chenoua' portrays a society unknown to Algerian women. With neither plot nor unified theme, it depicts a world of space and time, of body and thought, and of social relationships from the Algerian women's point of view. The movie is distinct in many aspects from other Algerian film and cultural productions because of its disjointed construction and feminine perspective.

Excerpt: Assia Djebar (Arabic: ) is the pen-name of Fatima-Zohra Imalayen (born 30 June 1936), an Algerian novelist, translator and filmmaker. Most of her works deal with obstacles faced by women, and she is noted for her feminist stance. Djebar is considered to be one of North Africa's pre-eminent and most influential writers. She was elected to the Académie française on 16 June 2005, the first writer from the Maghreb to achieve such recognition. Djebar was born in Cherchell, a small coastal town near Algiers. Her family lived in a little village nearby called Mouzaïaville. There, she attended the primary school where her father taught French. She later attended a boarding school in Blida. In 1955, Djebar became the first Algerian woman to be accepted at the École Normale Supérieure, an elite Parisian college. In 1957, she published her first novel, La Soif ("The Thirst"). Fearing her father's disapproval, she had it published under the pen name Assia Djebar. Another book, Les Impatients, followed the next year. Also in 1958, she and Ahmed Ould-Rouïs began a marriage that would eventually end in divorce. In 1962, Djebar published Les Enfants du Nouveau Monde, and followed that in 1967 with Les Alouettes Naïves. She remarried in 1980, to the Algerian poet Malek Alloula. The couple lives in Paris, France. In 2005, Djebar was accepted into the Académie Française, a prestigious institution tasked with guarding the heritage of the French language. She is currently a professor of Francophone liter...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=1907465 ... Read more
