Abstract

As one of the foundational texts in the field of postcolonial writing, Barbara Harlow's Resistance Literature introduced new ground in Western literary studies. Originally published in 1987 and now reissued with a new Preface by Mia Carter, this powerfully argued and controversial critique develops an approach to literature which is essentially political. Resistance Literature introduces the reader to the role of literature in the liberation movements of the developing world during the 20th Century. It considers a body of writing largely ignored in the west. Although the book is organized according to generic topics - poetry, narrative, prison memoirs - thematic topics, and the specific historical conditions that influence the cultural and political strategies of various resistance struggles, including those of Palestine, Nicaragua and South Africa, are brought to the fore. Among the questions raised are the role of women in the developing world; communication in circumstances of extreme atomization; literature versus propaganda; censorship; and the problem of adopting literary forms identified with the oppressor culture.

Abstract

Jomo Kenyatta, Aimé Césaire, Ruben Um Nyobè, Frantz Fanon, Patrice Lumumba, Kwame Nkrumah, Malcolm X, Mehdi Ben Barka, Amílcar Cabral, Thomas Sankara… Longtemps regardés avec dédain par ceux qui, au cours des trois dernières décennies, décrétèrent la mort du tiers-mondisme et le triomphe du néolibéralisme, ces noms reviennent aujourd'hui à l'ordre du jour. Avec l'atmosphère de révolte que l'on sent monter aux quatre coins du monde, ces figures majeures de la libération africaine suscitent un intérêt croissant chez les nouvelles générations. Constatant qu'ils sont trop souvent réduits à des icônes, Saïd Bouamama redonne corps et chair à ces penseurs de premier plan qui furent aussi des hommes d'action. Leurs vies rappellent en effet que la bataille pour la libération, la justice et l'égalité n'est pas qu'une affaire de concepts et de théories : c'est aussi une guerre, où l'on se fourvoie parfois et dans laquelle certains se sacrifient. L'auteur, pour autant, n'en fait pas des martyrs absolus : c'est pourquoi ce livre s'attache, avec beaucoup de pédagogie, à inscrire ces parcours dans leurs contextes sociaux, géographiques et historiques. À l'heure où l'on se demande comment avoir prise sur le monde, ce portrait politique collectif rappelle qu'il a toujours été possible, hier comme aujourd'hui, de changer le cours des choses.
