Une démythification de l’histoire algérienne : enjeux du récit de soi dans l’œuvre de Boualem Sansal
Journal Title: Lublin Studies in Modern Languages and Literature - Year 2016, Vol 40, Issue 40
Abstract
As a fully committed writer, Boualem Sansal has “stepped in literature as he would have put on a combat gear”, to dismantle poisonous myths that prevent, for him, post-independent Algeria to look dispassionately into the future. Mobilizing all possible resources to fulfil his purpose, he logically turns towards self-narrative, which undertaken subjectivity is used as an answer to the falsification of objective historic by the ruling political power. The way Boualem Sansal re-appropriate self-narration, strongly strengthening the role played by the reader, makes his literary work a radically renewed approach of the relation between fiction and reality.
