{"product_id":"francophone-literatures-belinda-jack-9780198715078","title":"Francophone Literatures: An Introductory Survey","description":"The canon of French literature has undergone substantial transforation in recent years and francophone literature is now an increasingly important element in French literature courses. This study introduces the diverse literatures from the numerous French-speaking areas around the world, including Africa, French Canada, and both the Caribbean and Indian Ocean Creole islands, among others. Moving region by region, Jack details the ways in which the most important authors establish a post-colonial and linguistically and culturally unique literary tradition while they subvert--through rewriting, parody, and pastiche--the established French literary tradition. More importantly, she suggests a new critical approach for understanding these various French-speaking cultures and, consequently, the French culture which they recast and subvert.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Belinda Jack\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198715072\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198715078\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.88d","brand":"Belinda Jack","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47419017068799,"sku":"9780198715078","price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bc8996aa-f519-45a7-a8da-8bc866b5e89e.jpg?v=1761508928","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/francophone-literatures-belinda-jack-9780198715078","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
