Representations of Women and Sexuality in Francophone North African Literature

这项研究将探讨如何法语文学从摩洛哥和阿尔及利亚出现持不同政见的伊斯兰教的崛起，而往往否定了许多生活的现实妇女和他们的经验与伊斯兰教。在此过程中，本项目将探讨当代作家通过提供下层声音的交替表达来挑战西方权力和权利观念的未被研究的方式，或者无意中加强殖民比喻并限制对伊斯兰教进行积极重新评估的机会。为此，本项目将比较最近的作品（2005 - 2018）摩洛哥作家Leïla Slimani和Abdellah Taïa与阿尔及利亚作家Mourad Djebel和Kamel Daoud，因为他们占据了独立后马格里布作家的同一代人因为他们占据了独立后马格里布作家的同一代人（阿拉伯语和柏柏尔语是阿尔及利亚和摩洛哥的官方语言，但法语被广泛用于写作和更广泛的知识辩论）。该项目分析了他们的小说，散文和新闻，以探索文本的形式如何有助于我们对表征的理解的微妙变化。

This study will examine the ways in which Francophone literature from Morocco and Algeriaappears dissident to the rise of Islamism, whilst often negating the many lived realities of women andtheir experiences with Islam. In doing so, this project will probe the understudied ways in whichcontemporary authors either challenge Western notions of power and rights by offering alternat iverepresentations of subaltern voices, or unintentionally reinforce colonial tropes and limit theopportunity for a positive reassessment of Islam. To do so, this project will compare the recent works(2005 - 2018) of Moroccan authors Leïla Slimani and Abdellah Taïa with Algerian writers MouradDjebel and Kamel Daoud, as they occupy the same generation of post-Independence Maghrebi writersusing French to engage heavily in these themes (Arabic and Berber are the official languages in Algeriaand Morocco but French is widely used in creating writing and wider intellectual debate). The projectwill analyse their novels, essays and journalism to explore how the form of the text contributes to asubtle change in our understanding of representations.
