Kamouraska d’Anne Hébert et Une si longue lettre de Mariama Bâ Un même « discours » féministe ?

Mbaye Diouf

Resumen

Kamouraska by Anne Hébert and Une si longue lettre by Mariama Bâ. A Shared Feminist “Discourse”?

Exploring a research angle never yet investigated by literary critics, this text proposes a comparative analysis of novels by writers Anne Hébert, of Québec, and Mariama Bâ, of Senegal. The study joins a new research domain by integrating literatures of the “North” and those of the “South”. Relations between men and women constitute a major focus in the novels, suggesting a social interrogation shared by both authors, as well as a common preoccupation for the feminine condition. Novels such as Kamouraska and Une si longue lettre seem to rewrite Augustinian libidos only through a systematic denunciation of religious and patriarchal discourse that declasses feminine subjects in the two societies. Their narrative and enunciative dispositions therefore organise literary subjects who, although particular in the works of each author, express, in a solidary manner, another way of being, as well as a “gendered” point of view.

Key words: Anne Hébert, Mariama Bâ, novel, discourse, feminism, enunciation, Québec, Sénégal.
