Foreword by Henry Louis Gates Jr., introduction by Valerie Smith. New York: Oxford University Press, 1990, xl, 306pp., . Series: The Schomburg library of nineteenth-century Black women writers "Not only one of the last of over one hundred slave narratives published separately before the Civil War, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (1861) is also one of the few existing narratives written by a woman. It offers a unique perspective on the complex plight of the black woman as slave and as writer. In a story that merges the conventions of the slave narrative with the techniques of the sentimental novel, Harriet Jacobs describes her efforts to fight off the advances of her master, her eventual liaison with another white man (the father of two of her children), and her ultimately successful struggle for freedom. Jacobs' account of her experiences, and her search for her own voice, prefigure the literary and ideological concerns of generations of African-American women writers to come" - CONTENTS: Foreword : In her own write / Henry Louis Gates, Jr. -- A note from The Schomburg Center / Howard Dodson -- Introduction / Valerie Smith -- Preface by the author / Linda Brent -- Introduction by the editor / L.

ARAGON. La mise à mort. Paris: Gallimard, 1965, 421pp., . L'histoire d'un homme qui a perdu son image. peut-être. Entre nous, l'histoire d'un homme qui a perdu son image est-elle compatible avec le réalisme? Or, Ànthoine est devenu un réaliste un jour pendant que chantait Ingeborg d'Usher, qu'il appelle en secret Fougère. C'est de cette création [permanente qu'est le chant de Fougère qu'il tient sa croyance en l'existence des autres : « Et comment voulez-vous, - dit-il - , que, de cette donnée étrange, il existe d'autres que moi-même, je n'ai pas été de fond en comble modifié, changé, bouleversé? » Ou plutôt n'est-ce pas un livre sur la jalousie : « Othello, ou dans le genre. », a dit une fois Ànthoine. Mais dans le livre, ce n'est pas toujours Anthoine qui parle. Il y a l'auteur et un certain Alfred. Il est entendu que c'est Anthoine qui est aimé de Fougère : « C'est-à-dire, - dit Alfred -, que Fougère aime une certaine idée qu'elle se fait de moi, qu'elle appelle Anthoine. » C'est Alfred en tout cas qui dira d'elle : « Quand elle chante, j'aime bestialement son âme. » Mais l'auteur se demande : Quel est le sujet de mon livre à vrai dire. l'homme qui a perdu son imageyla vie d'Anthoine Célèbre et d'Ingeborg d'Usher, le chant, le réalisme ou la jalousie? Ce pourrait aussi être le roman de la pluralité de la personne humaine, celui de la création romanesque ou le roman du romancier. Choisissez vous-même. Le roman est situé dans cette vie du siècle XX, les deux guerres, le Front populaire, la mort de Gorki, et ces jours d'aujourd'hui : le monde réel, vous avez beau le tourner dans tous les sens, c'est encore Le monde réel. Et ou Anthoine parle ou l'auteur, ou c'est Alfred, il faut en croire celui-ci, disant à Fougère : Tout n'est que j'écris qu'une lettre, une lettre sans fin vers toi. Une longue, une interminable lettre d'amour, et quelle qu'en soit la forme, le roman même, ou s'y introduise une histoire sans rapport avec lui, qui se passe au Danemark et à Vienne, ou qui, d'un concert de Richter jouant aux chandelles en 1963 le Carnaval de Schumann, nous ramène fin 1918 sur les bords du Rhin, à moins qu'elle nous fasse tomber en pleine « Série noire » avec un dipe-Roi logé rue des Martyrs. Mais l'interviewer : « Pourquoi ce titre, La Mise à Mort? » L'auteur, en tête. bille en tête. du livre, semble s'y autoriser d'un poème de Pasternak, traduit par Eisa Triolet ; Or être vieux c'est Rome qui, Au lieu des chars et des échasses, Exige, non la comédie, Mais que la mise à mort se fasse. Peut-être, après tout, que c'est là le sujet du roman, a Quoi? La vieillesse, la mort? » Mon Dieu, comme vous me fatiguez! Et pourquoi ne me demandez-vous pas aussi qui est Fougère.. …
