L'énigme conjugale
Author: Josiane Cauquelin
Publisher: Presses Univ Blaise Pascal
ISBN: 9782845161238
Category : Asia
Languages : fr
Pages : 256
Book Description
Curieusement, si les ouvrages consacrés aux femmes abondent, ils n'offrent que peu d'éléments sur la relation conjugale. En Asie, comme ailleurs, les enjeux du mariage sont culturellement construits et délimitent la faible marge de manoeuvre laissée à la femme. Les auteurs se sont attachés à comprendre si, malgré les limites qui leur sont assignées, les femmes disposent d'un pouvoir comparable à celui des hommes. Les sources écrites et les matériaux ethnographiques utilisés traitent principalement des groupes majoritaires de la région : Birmans, Chinois Han, Coréens, Lao, Thaïs, Vietnamiens et Bengalis.

Touching Beauty
Author: Miléna Santoro
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0228018269
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Kim Thúy is a literary phenomenon, rising in her first decade of writing to a level of international recognition that few Québécois writers ever attain. The Vietnamese-born author’s novels have garnered literary prize recognition and have been translated from French into twenty-nine languages in nearly forty countries. Touching Beauty is the first collection to focus solely on Thúy and her economical yet poetic storytelling style that expresses both the traumatic and the beautiful. Her writings, which manage to be culturally specific all while speaking to the fundamentals of the human condition, are examined within the context of what is known as migrant literature in Canada and are situated within the history of Vietnamese literature in French that grew out of the colonial period. Chapters explore food, identity, gender, and the role of writing in Thúy’s life and work. Thúy herself contributes an unpublished poem and an extended interview that focus on her ongoing struggle to find, and write, beauty amidst war, migration, poverty, and loss. Touching Beauty maps the themes that have, to date, animated a literary career of global relevance and enduring value and encourages a deeper appreciation of Thúy’s writing.
