Summary

Fifty Year of Armenian Literature in France examines Armenian literature as it emerged in France between 1922 and the beginning of the 1970's. Its goals are several. First of all, to retrace the literary history of the period starting with Armenian immigration until the passing away of the movement's main representatives. Then by examining the most significant works, to study the issues raised by a literature of exile, one born after an event that was experienced and interpreted as a "national catastrophe": the identity crisis (the Same), brought about by a violent confrontation with a new environment (the Other), the emergence of a new identity and the long process to integrate exile and the foreign space. --, Provided by publisher
