FRE 3323 - L’Espace outre-mer

Credits: 4
This course focuses on current issues in French overseas departments and territories, which are islands, with the exception of French Guyana. While the Western imaginary tends to portray these places predominantly as tropical, paradisiacal islands, local authors, artists, filmmakers, and playwrights challenge the notion of exoticism. Their works serve as a critical vantage point from which to examine topics such as the economic crisis, globalization, modernity, and traditions in the Indian Ocean, the French Caribbean, and the South Pacific. Students will analyze texts through a variety of historical, geographical, theoretical, and disciplinary dimensions.
This course is taught in French.
Prerequisites FRE-2510, FRE-2511, FRE-2513, or FRE-2514 OR 1 course from FRE 3000 level.
McDaniel Plan: International Non-Western; Social, Cultural, and Historical Understanding; Textual Analysis
