| L'Irruption des
«autres» explores the problem of intercultural
relations. Interculturality is something not only
scholars in the humanities and the social sciences
deal with, but it also increasingly affects
administrators, politicians, educators, and to some
extent all members of society. People confront
problems that have to do with the ways of
understanding and managing intercultural relationships
in today's societies - societies that are becoming
more complex locally while, on the other hand,
interrelations at a global level unceasingly increase.
L'irruption des «autres», as suggested by its title, deals precisely with the inscription of cultural diversity in contemporary literature and, more concretely, the different moments in which the irruption of the «others» took place. This work identifies the rich variety of these texts with the term «calibanesque discourse», for the authors adopt, more or less explicitly, the viewpoint of Caliban, the colonial subject par excellence, instead of Prospero's, no longer considered the exponent of civilization but as the epitome of imperialism. L'Irruption des «autres» studies three phenomena pertaining to precise geographical and cultural areas: the Chicano movement, discourses of identity and resistance in the French-Creole Caribbean (négritude, antillanité, créolité), and Latin-American indigenismo. Giménez Micó's critical position appears in clear confrontation with diverse essentialist concepcions of identity, as well as with antagonistic positions that relativize identity to the extent of making it disappear as an object of study. The transdisciplinary approach of this work welcomes contributions from a large variety of schools and disciplines in the humanities as well as in the social sciences: literature, philosophy, social psychology, cultural studies, discourse analysis, hermeneutics, semiotics, sociocriticism, cultural studies, etc. Due to its interdisciplinary scope, L'irruption des «autres» is not only addressed to a specialized audience. |
