Abstract EN
The present paper examines the emergence of a discourse of resistance to oppressive ideologies and racist structureswith reference to Frantz Fanon’sBlack Skin White Masks (1952).
The task is to examine how the author came up with a narrative of his own whereby to oppose the socio-political and cultural aggression ofBlack people bytargeting all the institutions, which are complicit in the perpetuation of racism and developing of an inferiority complex.
The analysis of cultural representations through characters of Fanon’s bookwill be conducted under the theoretical scheme suggested by Bill Ashcroft, Gareth Griffiths and Helen Tiffin in their book entitled The Empire Writes Back: Theory and Practice in Post-colonial Literatures (1989).
The focus in this paper will beput on the discursive and textual strategies with which Fanonsubverts and revises the Eurocentric prejudices, stereotypes, and representations of the Black Man
Abstract FRE
Le présent article examine l'émergence d'un discours de résistance aux idéologies oppressives et aux structures racistes en référence àBlack Skin White Masks de Frantz Fanon (1952).
Il s'agit d'explorer la manière dont l'auteur a construit son propre récit pour s'opposer à l'agression sociopolitique et culturelle des Noirs en visant toutes les institutions, complices de la perpétuation du racisme et du développement d'un complexe d'infériorité.
L'analyse des représentations culturelles du livre de Fanon sera menée selon le schéma théorique proposé par Bill Ashcroft, Gareth Griffiths et Helen Tiffin dans leur ouvrage intitulé The Empire Writes Back: Theory and Practice in Post-colonialLiteratures (1989).
L'accent sera mis sur les stratégies discursives et textuelles avec lesquelles Fanon subvertit et révise les préjugés, les stéréotypes et les représentations de l'Homme Noir.
