Project Details
Description
This study aims to examine and compare how mother figures are represented in North African Francophone literature in its emerging phase (around the 1950s and the 1960s), especially in autobiographical novels. The fact that narrators depict their mother, the mother-child as well as the wife-husband relationships and married women's situation from the inside of Maghrebi families at this historical period provides a privileged and critic perspective to understand howFrancophone authors from different sociocultural backgrounds tackle woman's issue and how they undermine the patriarchal society through giving these mothers a voice and a face.
