FRE 353 Representations of Immigration in Francophone Literature and Film

This course examines literary and cinematic representations of migrants and migration from former French colonies to countries that border the Mediterranean in the 21st century. It focuses on the realities and cultural representations of both emigration and immigration from historical, political, economic, and sociocultural perspectives. Novels, films and documentaries will allow students to understand and conceptualize different views on migrations, whether it be Francophilic, ex-centric, clandestine migrations, or its remedy, disimmigration.
