Etude sur L'orientalisme D'eugene Fromentin Dans ses Recits Algeriens
Ce livre analyse les sources et les qualites de l'orientalisme litteraire et ideologique des Recits algeriens d'Eugene Fromentin (Un ete dans le Sahara, Une annee dans le Sahel, 1854-1858). Il compare cet orientalisme avec celui de Victor Hugo, de Gerard de Nerval et de Lamartine, et montre comment Fromentin s'est inspire des oeuvres du General Daumas et de celles de Senancour. Se faisant, il veut demontrer que l'orientalisme en litterature comporte bien des degres et que celui de Fromentin, venu en son temps, y a trouve une place plus qu'honorable, au point d'etre encore pleinement apprecie de nos jours.

Between Sea and Sahara gives us Algeria in the third decade of colonization. Written in the 1850s by the gifted painter and extraordinary writer Eugene Fromentin, the many-faceted work is travelogue, fiction, stylized memoir, and essay on art. Fromentin paints a compelling word picture of Algeria and its people, questioning France's—and his own—role there. He shows French dynamism tending to arrogance, tinged with malaise, as well as the complexity of the Algerians and their canny survival tactics. In his efforts to capture the non-Western world on paper as well as on canvas, Fromentin reveals much about the roots of a colonial relationship that continues to affect the Algeria of today. He also reveals his own development as painter, writer—and human being. Now available for the first time in English, Between Sea and Sahara appeals to today's reader on many levels—as a story of color, romance, and dramatic tension; as an eywitness account of the colonial experience in Algeria; as a study in trans-genre text, foreshadowing Fromentin's psychological masterpiece, the novel Dominique. And, as Valérie Orlando points out in her introduction, Fromentin opens a window on the ethos informing the fashion of Orientalism that flourished with colonialism.
