| dc.description.abstract | This study explores, on the one hand, the interactions between narratives and other art and media forms within the narrative and, on the other, the correlation between fiction and non-fiction. Within the context of new trends in francophone literature since the 90s where the novel has become a genre without limit, the work interrogates the reconfiguration of discursive space of the francophone novel made of interactions and transgressions. It focalises on the mixture of genres, the interaction between the fictional text and the paratextual elements (title, preface, postface, foot and endnotes etc.), the narrative text and media forms of expression, and the violence which characterises the elements of narration. The study is based on six novels of six different writers of sub-Saharan Africa and Haiti. This choice is informed by the desire to compare the aesthetics of these writers of different periods, as well as that of the two territories identified notably by cultural and sociological resemblance. This study will be conducted in the light of a comparative research methodology, using elements of the theory of dialogism of Mikhail Bakhtin, coupled with the concepts of intertextuality, intermediality, and the mosaic which deal basically with the interaction of various discourses, voices, and genres, bringing out the conflicting and complementing relationship within a shared space. The analysis reveals that current media and technological advancement and improved culture of mobility which have banished frontiers, account for the loss identities and the creation multifaceted space in literary works. Besides, the fashionable transgression of discursive practices and subversion of established orders have decompartmentalised the literary expression, widening its horizons and giving it a global and a transfrontiers outlook. To this end, the notion of frontiers in the contemporary francophone novel surpasses the status of a theme and imposes itself rather as a framework for the reading of the novel. | en_US |
