French And Francophone

I conclude Pacifist Invasions by arguing for the continued relevance and urgency of the translational and intertextual perspectives afforded by poetry and poetics in both French and Arabic, and by probing the on-going debates in French and Francophone studies with regard to the new lyric studies. I develop the notion of the postfrancophone as one means of broaching these debates, a concept that I historicize and develop based on the preceding poetic analyses, and with particular reference to Jean-Marie Gleize’s recent coinage, postpoésie or ‘postpoetry.’ I end with a polemical reappraisal that revisits what I am construing to be the central case of Abdelwahab Meddeb, and with a re-evaluation of the history of Meddeb scholarship. I insist on the textual and poetic underpinnings of the field of French and Francophone studies, its future, and what I dub postfrancophonie. In light of both past and present aesthetic, translational, and intertextual engagements, I call for a thorough reassessment of the longstanding critical division between French and Arabic literary cultures.
