Based on an interdisciplinar and interdiscursive perspective, this study creates a relationship between Myth as an anthropological element and Literature - falling as such in the category of creation - in the form of postcolonial discourse. By considering myth as a framework having its origin in the inconscious background of a human community and being as such able to transcend both societal and historical differences, this relationship is described as a common denominator of the literary discourses practized by the postcolonial writers who are brought together, building so a wide-ranged corpus that reflects the different postcolonial situations. We find here Maurice Bandaman (The Son of the Male Woman), Chinua Achebe (Things Fall Apart), Nadine Gordimer (A World of Strangers), Tahar Ben Jelloun (The Sacred Night), Salman Rushdie (The Satanic Verses) and Patrick Chamoiseau (The Malfini's Nine Consciences). The most used investigative tool is the mythocritical approach, especially represented by the studies of Pierre Brunel and Gilbert Durand taken into account both in their common research orientation and in their reciprocal complementarity. From the perspective of postcolonial world view, our approach is focused of the essential antagonism that consists in the confrontation between « masters » (i.e. the colonists) and the « humiliated autochton » described by Hubert Félix Thiéfaine. In the same way, this study is periodically punctuated by other quotes from Thiéfaine's texts, which provide a suggestive counterpoint to the views exposed in the different chapters. One has to determine to what extent the incorporation of mythical elements actually appears as a key part by the emergence of a postcolonial discourse, while the shift from colonial to postcolonial discourse occurs through the recourse to a mythical legacy which combines reappropriations of the cultural legacy brought by the colonisators and renewal of the local mythic background, in this case with differents accentuations depending on the localisation of the text and its author in Black Africa, Maghreb or India. The recognition of significant divergences concerning the selection of the most important mythical elements goes in fact hand in hand with a large similarity in the treatment modalities concerning their integration in the poscolonial discourse, of which they are an essential part in all the cases studied. Several elements belonging to the mythical domain appear thus to be present in the poscolonial literary texts analysed in the present study. We find in particular symbols and mythems related to the resurgence of very old mythical figures and revealing in this way their eternal return. Apart from those symbolical structures, the investigation of the texts shows that mythical figures like Prometheus or Dionysos appear in postcolonial context as acceptable configurations of representations whose disruptive potentialities contain the possibility of a transition in the transmission of the values and systems of thoughts they convey and that underlie in the same way both the colonial and postcolonial facts. The investigation of the main categories in the novels building our corpus allows to describe the specific dynamics inherent to those novelistic categories and determined by the postcolonial context, which stays itself under the influence of the dynamics inherent to the mythical structures that underlies the thinking of people and also appears as the substrate of the literary and artistic achievements which are in touch with current concerns of our time. Henceforth our study postulates as a last result the presence of a mythical discourse common to all those texts. It appears as a projection of imaginary representations of transition in postcolonial context, grounded in eschatology and tending to the emergence of new cosmologies

Disertacijoje naujai teoriškai konceptualizuojama baltų pokario išeivių bendruomenės situacija bei jos raiška lietuvių ir latvių romanuose. Prievartinė emigracija iš baltų kraštų po II pasaulinio karo susijusi su kardinaliomis permainomis, todėl analizės instrumentais tampa lūžį ir slinktis ženklinantys postkolonializmo konceptai: liminalumas (V. Turner), hibridiškumas ir mimikrija (H. Bhabha), įsivaizduojama bendruomenė (B. Anderson), nostalgija (S. Boym), triksteris (M. Bachtin). Analizės centre – latvių ir lietuvių XX a. II pusės egzodo romanai apie karą, pasitraukimą ir gyvenimą išeivijoje, sukurti rašytojų, kurie patys tą lemtį patyrė. Pasirinktų tekstų korpusui skvarbyti pasitelkiamas dvinaris fizinės ir mentalinės kolonizacijos modelis. „Fizinės kolonizacijos“ skyriuje analizuojami karo romanai pagal vyrų/moterų lyties skirtį. „Mentalinės kolonizacijos“ skyriuje tyrinėjami kūriniai, atspindintys išlikimo strategijas, kurios įvairuoja nuo prisirišimo prie savos kultūros iki savanoriško jos atsižadėjimo. Įžvelgiamos trys išeivio tapatybės transformacijos pakopos: antikolonizacija, hibridizacija, savikolonizacija. Baltų romanų analizei taikyta postkolonializmo metodologija, jos pasiūlytos sąvokos ir tipologizavimo modelis pasirodė funkcionalūs. Konstatuota, kad emigracinė patirtis ir tapatybės virsmai ne tiek pavaldūs etninei prigimčiai, kiek išgyvenami bendražmogiškai.

The thesis produces a postcolonial reading of Margaret Atwood's novels, based on the concept of deception. Articulated on six major elements of analysis (intertextual parody, deception, magic realism, trickster figures, hybridity, and quest pattern, the thesis shows how Margaret Atwood's novels can be read from a postcolonial point of view, within which the motif of deception plays a central role.

historiographic metafictions&rdquo
(Hutcheon 1989: 92), in terms of their allowing for different voices and alternative, plural histories by subverting the historical documents and events that they refer to. The study analyzes texts from feminist and postcolonial literature, Jeanette Winterson&rsquo
s The Passion and Sexing the Cherry, and Salman Rushdie&rsquo
s Midnight&rsquo
s Children and Shame as examples in which the transgression of boundaries between fact and fiction is achieved. Basing its arguments on postmodern understanding of history, the thesis puts forward that historiography not only represents past events but it also gives meaning to them, as it is a signifying system, and turns historical events into historical facts. Historiography, while constructing historical facts, singles out certain past events while omitting others, for ideological reasons. This inevitably leads to the fact that marginalized groups are denied an official voice by hegemonic ideologies. Therefore, history is regarded as monologic, representing the dominant discourse. The thesis will analyze four novels by Winterson and Rushdie as double-voiced discourses where the dominant voice of history is refracted through subversion and gives way to other voices that have been suppressed. While analyzing the novels themselves, the thesis will look for the metafictional elements of the texts, stressing self-reflexivity, non-linear narrative, and parodic intention to pinpoint the refraction and the co-existence of plural voices. As a result, historiographic metafiction is proved to be a liberating genre, for feminist and postcolonial writers, that enables other histories to be verbalized.

Khan, Shoukat Yaseen. "History, culture and identity in the novels of Bapsi Sidhwa, Bharati Mukherjee and Hanif Kureishi." Thesis, Tours, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017TOUR2018/document.
The objective of this thesis is to study three novels written by English-speaking authors of Pakistan or India, namely Bapsi Sidhwa, Bharati Mukherjee and Hanif Kureishi. One might be tempted to place the three writers of this study in the category of "literature of immigrants." They all write at a time of mass migration when the idea of "cultural shock" among Western peoples begins to be more evident. All three writers are affected by themes which appear only marginally in the debate evoked above, much of the emphasis being on the cultural and social difficulties of women in Indo-Pakistani society. As for Kureishi, the polarization mentioned above assumes a very different emphasis, involving the situation of an Asian born and brought up inside Western society. Within this overall assessment of the ideological and historical context common to all three writers, it will thus be important to examine the specific attitudes adopted by each writer in relation to his or her own personal experience. The main focus of this study will therefore be thematic, centering on these writers’ specific preoccupations and the way this is seen in their peculiar depiction of the tensions at stake

The novel is generally read through a Western lens that privileges both individual subjectivity and the nation-state. My dissertation acts as an intervention into the critical tradition that sees the novel as a genre preoccupied with the individual, the nation-state, and the rights and responsibilities of citizenship through which the two relate to each other. This tradition includes seminal theorists Ian Watt, Fredric Jameson, and Benedict Anderson as well as contemporary critics such as Pascale Casanova and Joseph Slaughter. Transnational Communities challenges this accepted framework for understanding the novel genre through an examination of novels which decenter the categories of individual and nation-state and argues that in this moment of unprecedented globalization, the novel’s ability to imagine new forms of community is an increasingly relevant social function
