‎Interpreting the Republic: Marginalization and Belonging in Contemporary French Novels and Films‎

‎Lexington Books / Rowman & Littlefield 2011. Book. As New. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. New book. NO remainder marks or clippings. Tight spine bright pages. 173 pages. Tight spine bright pages. Illustrated. NO writing marks or tears inside book. Interpreting the Republic focuses on contemporary French literary and cinematic works 1986-2003 that reflect on what it means to belong to a nation such as France by giving voice to those who find themselves marginalized by French society. While citizenship and belonging can be and indeed are interpreted differently depending on the socio-cultural and political context it is the foundational universalist republican principle of egalitarianism that has remained the sacred cow of French society. One of the major claims of this study is that the rigidity of French national discourse that attempts to impose a certain homogeneity in its official identificatory practices-all citizens are French and thus difference ethnic sexual or other ceases to matter-is but one of the many possible interpretations of the notion of the Republic. Vinay Swamy seeks to show how such supposedly unshakeable principles too can be and often are reinterpreted in novel ways by the works analyzed in this study which carve out niches for their protagonists that are otherwise foreclosed in the French national space. Swamy examines the different tactics of identification deployed in works ranging from early "romans beurs" by Azouz Begag Farida Belghoul and Soraya Nini and Allah Superstar the 2003 satirical novel by Y.B. to a number of films including Gazon maudit 1995 Ma vie en rose 1997 Le Placard 2001 Chouchou 2003 all of which reinterpret the Republic in an effort to legitimize their protagonists' otherwise marginalized social positions. He demonstrates how all these works put pressure in a variety of ways on an unacknowledged understanding of the institutional positions. Lexington Books / Rowman & Littlefield Hardcover‎
