摘要

摘要本文通过对法国作家法扎·盖恩的两部小说、她的畅销处女作《Kiffe Kiffe demain》和她的最新叙事作品《La Discrétion》的比较分析,探讨了后殖民传播的主题。它认为,移民父母和他们在法国出生的孩子之间的亲密关系对作者作品的政治化尤为关键。这篇文章追溯了盖恩在其职业生涯中对生活在社会经济弱势法国郊区的女性的描述是如何演变的。这表明,她最初对共和党价值观的乐观和信念已经被越来越失望的愿景所取代。本文借鉴非殖民化女权主义理论,探讨了在盖恩最新也是迄今为止最具政治色彩的小说中,沉默的殖民和后殖民历史以及压抑的愤怒通过一位70岁阿尔及利亚妇女生活中的暴力事件与她成年的孩子在当代法国经历的看似微不足道但持续的微侵犯的叠加来描述。这一策略使作者能够反思文化传播的作用,同时重建殖民、移民和失败的社会流动的沉默历史,同时揭穿共和党精英统治的神话。

Female Filiations as a Locus of Politicization in Faïza Guène’s œuvre: An Intersectionalist Reading of Kiffe kiffe demain and La Discrétion
ABSTRACT This article explores the theme of postcolonial transmission through the comparative analysis of two novels by French author Faïza Guène, her bestselling debut novel Kiffe kiffe demain and her latest narrative La Discrétion. It argues that intimate bonds between immigrant parents and their French-born children have been particularly pivotal to the politicization of the author’s writing. The article traces how Guène’s representation of women living in socio-economically disadvantaged French banlieues has evolved throughout her career. It shows how her initial optimism and faith in the Republican values has given way to an increasingly disenchanted vision. Drawing on decolonial feminist theory, the paper investigates how, in Guène’s latest and most political novel to date, the transmission of silenced colonial and postcolonial history and withheld anger is depicted through a superposition of violent episodes from the life of a 70-year-old Algerian woman with the apparently insignificant yet persistent microaggressions experienced by her grown-up children in contemporary France. This strategy enables the author to reflect on the role of cultural transmission while reconstructing the silenced history of colonization, immigration and failed social mobility while also debunking the myth of Republican meritocracy.
