Commissioned by the association Emmaüs Solidarité, the series features forty-six portraits of men seeking asylum in France. The refugees wear outfits they selected from available donations at the Centre de premier accueil de la Porte de la Chapelle in Paris. First-person texts featuring the men’s thoughts about their clothing choices accompany the images. I contend that vestimentary choices in Des sneakers comme Jay-Z reflect each man’s sense of agency in the social construction of his nascent transnational identity as he adapts to life within the French Republic. Although casual, everyday outfits rarely draw engaged reflection by those around us, photographing the refugees in their selected outfits and questioning them about these items creates a project that defamiliarizes common garments to encourage viewers to reflect on clothing’s role in fashioning new subjectivities. Reading the accompanying texts through the lens of the sociology of clothing and fashion, the article investigates how the men’s apparel choices reflect both nostalgia for their homelands and a desire to integrate into French society. Through the shared human experience of self-presentation through dress, Des sneakers comme Jay-Z thus constructs a narrative emphasizing refugees’ basic humanity in order to contest anti-migrant discourses.","PeriodicalId":53563,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary French Civilization","volume":"45 1","pages":"317-336"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49003301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Louis n’a eu de cesse, sachant que l’agression autour de laquelle s’articule le récit implique un homme d’origine kabyle, d’insister sur la peur qu’il avait éprouvée de voir son texte faire l’objet d’une appropriation qui le transformerait en un “objet raciste,” et a systématiquement insisté sur sa volonté de faire du roman, au vu de la nature sensible des thèmes abordés, “un livre profondément antiraciste.” Il s’agira dans cet essai d’interroger les implications de cette angoisse littéraire à travers une réflexion sur la place ambiguë occupée par le facteur racial dans un dispositif narratif qui oscille entre d’un côté le besoin de s’assurer que “la lecture raciste devien[ne] comme impossible,” et de l’autre le souci d’inscrire l’expérience de la violence dans un contexte postcolonial. Histoire de la violence constitue selon nous un cas privilégié permettant de réfléchir à la question de la responsabilité et ce que nous appelons “l’éthique d’engagement des écrivains blancs” dans le contexte de la France contemporaine marqué à la fois par la montée en puissance du discours réactionnaire, et un intérêt croissant pour les récits mettant en scène des personnages postcoloniaux.","PeriodicalId":53563,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary French Civilization","volume":"45 1","pages":"271-283"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46626455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the French had little initial desire to move into the vast desert interior of North Africa, the so-called scramble for Africa and the glorification of Britain’s Dr. Livingston after his death later in the century inspired many French politicians and scientists to reexamine their own engagement with the continent. As a result, in 1883, Richard de Régnauld de Lannoy de Bissy (Lannoy), working on behalf of the Service géographique de l’armée, published the first thirty-eight of his sixty-three-sheet Carte d’Afrique. Although much of the continent had been visited and documented by Europeans as late as the early 1880s, there remained many blank spaces on French maps. This paper will examine Lannoy’s feuille 17: Timbouktou, which presents one such relatively unknown sector of the Sahara Desert, to the French people. Lannoy documents important physical characteristics such as the flow of the Niger River, large sections of desert, and both present and past caravan routes. However, he also de-legitimizes indigenous claims to the area and presents it as open and ready to accept French control.","PeriodicalId":53563,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary French Civilization","volume":"45 1","pages":"381-392"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45930527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
