Conditions de possibilité de l’histoire des francophonies dans les années 1980 : quelques réflexions

Resumo

This article aims at studying the connections between the discipline of Literary History and a field of enquiry whose epistemological, ideological and methodological frameworks were being reconfigured throughout the 1980s, namely Francophone Studies. The establishment of this branch of studies has aroused a series of fruitful, important debates regarding the future of literary French studies, whose issues have clearly crossed French borders – and way beyond.
