Anachronies, oubli et délire de théatralisation

The purpose of our work is to analyze the concept of « Sankofa » illustrated by Epupa, the character identified as mad in Léonora Miano's first novels. In this respect, our analysis will stem from Glissant's theory of «theatrical delusion ». This delirium would be the symptomatic emanation...

In this respect, our analysis will stem from Glissant's theory of «theatrical delusion ». This delirium would be the symptomatic emanation of a collective amnesia at work in formerly colonized societies. In order to understand the socio-political stakes of oblivion in sub-Saharan Africa, between the duty of memory, memory work, lack of memory, abuse of memory and critical deficit. An emancipatory approach that involves the re-elaboration of inclusive memory models will be suggested in our conclusion to decolonize / decompartmentalize the transcontinental imaginary as much in sub-Saharan Africa as in the West.
