In the process, she has become one of the most important figures in North African literature. In Assia Djebar, Jane Hiddleston traces Djebar’s development as a writer against the backdrop of North Africa’s tumultuous history. Whereas Djebar’s early writings were largely an attempt to delineate clearly the experience of being a woman, an intellectual, and an Algerian embedded in that often violent history, she has in her more recent work evinced a growing sense that the influence of French culture on Algerian letters may make such a project impossible. The first book-length study of this significant writer, Assia Djebar will be of tremendous interest to anyone studying post-colonial literature, women’s studies or Francophone culture.Contemporary French and francophone cultures ;6.Algerians in literatureAlgeriaIn literatureAlgerians in literature.843.914Hiddleston Jane850653UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910809111903321Assia Djebar3954028UNINA
