| Résumé/Présentation | "This article addresses how African literature has been instituted as an internationally recognized category of its own, by considering the case of writers from Francophone countries of Sub-Saharan Africa from the 1960s onward. In particular, how have these authors attained literary recognition over the past five decades' Based on a sociological and literary survey, the article maps the institutional mechanisms of the legitimation of these writers in space and time, using the heuristic potential of field theory on a global scale, and identifying different meanings of the ?world literature? label." |
