Representing Algerian Women

Beschreibung

This book seeks to explore and affirm the subversive potential of canonical francophone Algerian literature in its representation of women and femininity. It deploys analyses of literary perspective, psychoanalytical frameworks informed by the work of Lacan and Žižek, and an original notion of “pessimistic” narrative to argue that late-colonial Algerian literature discreetly evoked the importance of women's self-representation.
