Description
Summary:In the present contribution, we engage in a debate on linguistic imaginaries in Francophone literature. It proposes to analyse the linguistic and sociolinguistic phenomena that are translated through the language of writing in the texts of Gisèle Pineau, Maryse Condé, Malika Mokeddem and Fawzi Zouari. These phenomena that appear in the language and languages of the characters allow the expression of diglossia and plurilingualism in the texts. The plurality of languages and language levels calls for several aspects in the analysis of the texts because, beyond the presence of Arabic and Creole in the novels through various mechanisms put into practice, it seems to us that it is the environment (the ideological, cultural, social, political context, etc.) that guides any literary production. The language practice of Maghrebi and Caribbean women writers raises a particular question about Francophone identity. By writing in a foreign language, they incorporate traditional, cultural and linguistic codes to assert their identity through linguistic hybridity.
