Introduction à la littérature berbère. 3. Le conte merveilleux
By (author) A. Bounfour
English summary: This book aims to describe subjectivity in the Berber language throughout the genre of fairy tales. After a theoretical and historical problematization of three concepts – orality, writing and vocality – in order to rid Berber literature of folklorist views and make it a field of thought for its producers, three major questions are addressed through several tales. The first concerns kinship, mainly the relationship between parents and their children. Some maternal and paternal figures are examined. The second question relates to what underlies a society and political power from the point of view of this subjectivity. We will be surprised to see that the tale meets Ibn Khaldun’s theory of power and the state. The third relates to a well-known theme in the field of anthropology. Indeed, the relationship between culture and nature and the question of symbolism is revisited and the Berber way of saying and symbolizing is shown. French description: Ce livre a pour ambition de decrire la subjectivite berbere a travers le conte merveilleux. Apres une problematisation theorique et historique de trois concepts que sont l’oralite, l’ecriture et la vocalite pour debarasser la litterature berbere des vues folkloristes et en faire un domaine de la pensee pour ses producteurs, sont abordes trois grandes questions a travers plusieurs contes. La premiere concerne la parente, principalement les rapports entre les parents et leurs enfants. Certaines figures maternelles et paternelles y sont examinees. La seconde question est relative a ce qui fonde une societe et le pouvoir politique de point de vue de cette subjectivite. On sera surpris de voir que le conte rencontre la theorie khaldounienne du pouvoir et de l’Etat. La troisieme est relative a un theme bien connu dans le domaine de l’anthropologie. En effet, le rapport culture-nature et la question du symbolique y est revisite et il y est montre le mode berbere de dire et de symboliser.
