Abstract

"Oedipus's major handicap in life is not knowing who he is--and both parricide and incest result from his ignorance of his identity. With two questions--"Who am I?" and "Who is my father?"--on his mind (and on his lips), the obsessed Oedipus arrives at the oracle of Delphi. Unlike the majority of modern and postmodern readings of Oedipus Tyrannus, Efimia Karakantza's text focuses on the question of identity. Identity, however, is not found only in our genealogy; it also encompasses the ways we move in the public space, command respect or fail to do so, and relate to our interlocutors in life. But overwhelmingly, in the Greek polis, one's primary identity is as a citizen, and defining the self in the polis is the kernel of this story. Surveying a wide range of postmodern critical theories, Karakantza follows the steps of the protagonist in the four "cycles of questions" constructed by Sophocles. The quest to piece together Oedipus's identity is the long, painful, and intricate procedure of recasting his life into a new narrative"--

Abstract

Figure essentielle de la littérature francophone, Maryse Condé allie modernité et originalité d'une pensée ouverte sur le monde. Mettant à nu la vérité des imaginaires, son œuvre contribue à une compréhension approfondie des régions géographiques et humaines qu'elle explore. Fortes d'une énergie qui relie les espaces, l'écrivain, le texte et ses mythologies, les études proposées replongent le lecteur dans le bain des libertés et des confidences, de la fiction romanesque et de la mise en scène, de l'errance et de la rébellion d une œuvre à laquelle la philosophie en action de son auteure imprime une qualité roborative. Les contributions réunies en hommage à cette œuvre protéiforme proposent de croiser les regards inédits de critiques universitaires, de personnalités des arts et des lettres, de vieux habitués de l'œuvre condéenne entre virtuosités esthétiques et conscience claire, révélant une nécessaire asymétrie du dialogue. Ces Mélanges offerts à une Guadeloupéenne de renom manifestent avec évidence toutes les potentialités des divers horizons de la lecture et du sens inépuisable de l'œuvre.

Abstract

"This book investigates literary representations and self-representations of people with cosmopolitan identities arising from mobile global childhoods which transcend categories of migrancy and diaspora. Part I focuses on the ways in which cosmopolitan characters are represented in selected novels, from the debauched Anthony Blanche in Evelyn Waugh's classic Brideshead Revisited, to the victimized Ila in Amitav Ghosh's The Shadow Lines, to John le Carré's undefinable spies. Part II focuses on self-representations of people with a cosmopolitan upbringing, in the form of autobiographical narratives by well-known authors such as Barack Obama and Edward Said, along with lesser-known writers, all of whom "write back" to the ways in which they have at times been stereotyped and othered in literary fiction and public discourse"--
