La Déchirure Inévitable: The State of the Colonized Intellectual in Albert Memmi's La statue de sel

Bingle, Joseph Kennedy

Abstract Details

2009, Master of Arts, Miami University, French.
This thesis is an attempt to gain a more complete perspective about the plight of the poor, colonized Jewish intellectuals in twentieth century French North Africa, the obstacles they were presented with, and the few options that were available to them, through a literary and cultural analysis of Albert Memmi’s strongly autobiographical novel La statue de sel. It is also an attempt to utilize Memmi’s extraordinarily even-handed and sober analysis of the colonial situation in Portrait du colonise, Precede de Portrait du colonisateur to achieve a balanced understanding of the French colonial system in Tunisia that is absent from the majority of literature on the subject.
