M. Tumba Shango-­‐Lokoho <br />

K2032 – Literatures and Identities: The Arab World <br />

Mme Inès Horchani <br />

By studying chronologically Francophone and Arabophone works <strong>of</strong> the 20 th <br />

century, we will attempt to raise questions regarding identity in general, and Arab <br />

identity in particular. We will use various definitions (philosophical and <br />

anthropological) <strong>of</strong> identity and we will explore their limits. This exploration will <br />

lead us to see that identity is not simply a question <strong>of</strong> being, but also one <strong>of</strong> timing <br />

and point <strong>of</strong> view. <br />
