Mona El Khoury

Remnants of the Franco-Algerian Rupture

Archiving Postcolonial Minorities

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the colonial legacies and transnational identities of four minorities, orphans of Algeria: European settlers, Jews, mixed-race individuals, and Harkis. It argues that works of literature build an archive allowing the articulation of hidden histories and pays homage to the missing Algerian father, outcast of hegemonic narratives.
