    (re)mapping europe from a black diasporic perspective
    (Revue de Traduction et Langues, 2019) Aaid, Salah Eddine
    Inscribed in Homi Bhabha's project of "re-inventing Britain" and Stuart Hall's representation of cultural diversity, the present study explores the way in which the tropes of magical realism have been implemented to remap the new frontiers of the European construct in Bernardine Evaristo's Soul Tourists. In order to achieve this aim, a close reading technique has been relied on to deconstruct the text into basic dichotomies that trace the European centre and its margin. Furthermore, the British magical realism model of Anne Hegerfeldt is employed to highlight how the writer successfully reversed the realistic paradigm of the centre as she focalised the narration from an "ex-centric" point of view. In doing so, Europe became a warm home for the diasporic subject.

    Towards a black british fiction of memory: narrating the peripheral space of english identity in andrea levy ‘small island
    (Revue des sciences humaines, 2019) Aaid, Salah Eddine; MAOUI, Hocine
    The present paper aims at exploring how English identity is reconstructed through the narrative of memory in Small Island by the Black British writer Andrea Levy. It is argued that the narrative of this latter carries in its seeds a transnational memory that crosses the exclusive boundary of post-war identity that Britain underwent during the 1940s. This form of aesthetics has genuinely grounded the diasporic experience in the British cultural memory so that it became a warm home for the Caribbean immigrants of the Windrush Generation. Being written in the first decade of the twenty-first century, the novel highly contributes to enlighten contemporary multicultural Britain by creating multiracial sites of memory that function as new markers of British identity.
