Toussaint Louverture: Exeter French Texts

Autor Alphonse de Lamartine Editat de Léon-François Hoffman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 1998
This is a new critical edition of an unjustly forgotten drama by Alphonse de Lamartine, written in the early 1840s but only given its first, and last, performance in Paris in 1850.  It draws a compelling image of Toussaint Louverture, the father of Haitian Independence.  Lamartine proved something of a visionary by stressing his hero’s search for a coherent racial and national ideology, a theme which has become fundamental in Négritude and post-colonial literatures.
 
This edition is the first to provide a critical apparatus covering the history of the text, the political and social background against which it should be read, the reception of the work from the time of its original performance to today, and to offer notes on the historical figures included in the cast of characters, as well as a selection of variants, explanatory footnotes and an extensive bibliography.
 
This volume is in the series Textes littéraires/Exeter French Texts.  The text, intorudcution and essential notes are all in French.
