It analyses the hierarchies of cultural value which inform the work of six modern French writers: the exoticist Pierre Loti; Paul Gauguin, whose Noa Noa enacts European fantasies about Polynesia; Proust, who analyses such exemplary figures of exclusion and inclusion as the homosexual and the xenophobe; Montherlant, who claims to subvert colonialist values in La Rose de sable; Camus, who pleads an alienating detachment from the cultures of both metropolitan France and Algeria; and Jean Genet. Crucially Genet, who was typecast as France's moral pariah, in charting Palestinian statelessness in his last work, Un Captif amoureux (1986), reflects ethically on the dispossession of the Other and the violence inherent in the West's marginalization of cultural difference. 410 0$aCambridge studies in French. 606 $aFrench literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFrench literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMarginality, Social, in literature 606 $aLiterature and society$zFrance$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aLiterature and society$zFrance$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aFrench literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aFrench literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMarginality, Social, in literature. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 676 $a840.9/355 700 $aHughes$b Edward J$g(Edward Joseph),$f1953-$01454446 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814124603321 996 $aWriting marginality in modern French literature$94076791 997 $aUNINA
