Postmémoire de l’exil
| Resumo: | The exile of Jemia’s Sahrawi parents and grandparents inspires J.M.G. The Clezio the writing of Désert, and Gens des nuages, a two-handed narrative of their journey in the footsteps of the Aroussiyine nomads. Based on the transmission of personal story with regard to History, these texts illustrate the deployment of a "postmemory" (Hirsch). This family memory adopts, in our opinion, a form essentially spatial, which could be schematized by the idea of "tourbillon" (Benjamin). Between repetition, renewal and resonance, the metaphors of spirality would be imprinted in a subjective rhythm, modelled on the displacement of tribes in the desert space, and a narrative frame from which the author disappears. This contribution intends to verify this hypothesis on the basis of a textual analysis, helped by the notions proper to memorial studies. |
