Concentrating on European authors of the second half of the twentieth century who have chosen French as a language for their literary expression, and in particular the novels by Romain Gary, Agota Kristof, Milan Kundera and Jorge Semprun, with reference to many others, European Literary Immigration into the French Language explores some of the common elements in these works of fiction, which despite the varied personal circumstances and literary aesthetics of the authors, follow a similar path in the building of a literary identity and legitimacy in the new language. The choice of the French language is inextricably linked with the subsequent literary choices of these writers. This study charts a new territory within Francophone and European literary studies in treating the European immigrants as a separate group, and in applying linguistic, sociological and psychoanalytical ideas in the analysis of the works of fiction, and thus represents a relevant contribution to the understanding of European cultural identity. This volume is relevant to French and European literature scholars, and anyone with interest in immigration, European identity or second language adoption. 410 0$aFaux titre ;$v313. 606 $aFrench literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFrench literature$xForeign authors 615 0$aFrench literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFrench literature$xForeign authors. 676 $a840.900914 700 $aMiletic?$b Tijana$01472166 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782002603321 996 $aEuropean literary immigration into the French language$93684867 997 $aUNINA
