作者:Mulira,Sanyu Ruth|顾问:Roberts,艾伦F|翻译后摘要:本文比较和批判性地审查“La Noire de…“(1962年)和“大西洋的腹部”(2003年)的法图迪奥姆作为见证作品的法语非洲文学,有着共同的主题和线索,尽管40年的分离。这两种叙述都涉及法国殖民主义引起的文化异化、对变革的渴望以及塞内加尔社会气候中的幻灭等问题。以女性家政工人为主角,“La Noire de...》和《大西洋之腹》的相互联系在考虑塞内加尔见证小说中女性声音的轨迹时特别有趣。
Author(s): Mulira, Sanyu Ruth | Advisor(s): Roberts, Allen F | Abstract: This thesis comparatively and critically examines "La Noire de..." (1962) by Ousmane Sembene and "The Belly of the Atlantic" (2003) by Fatou Diome as testimonial pieces of Francophone African literature that share common themes and threads despite the 40 years that separate them. Both narratives deal with issues of cultural alienation as induced by French Colonialism, yearning for transformation, and disillusionment within the Senegalese social climate. Featuring female domestic workers as protagonists, "La Noire de..." and "The Belly of the Atlantic" relate to each other in a way that is of special interest when considering a trajectory of female voices in Senegalese testimonial fiction.
