| Summary, etc. | RésuméCet article analyse les modes selon lesquels la littérature indienne contemporaine aborde la poétique de la frontière dans le contexte postcolonial et dans celui des nouvelles configurations d’un ordre mondial conçu comme une zone de migrations transnationales où les tensions communautaires s’affirment toutefois violemment. D’une part, les romans indiens prennent acte des lignes dures et des cadres qui définissent l’individu, la société et la nation, et offrent un sentiment de stabilité mais aussi de fixité et d’enfermement. D’autre part, ils suggèrent des lignes de fuite qui remettent en question les divisions binaires et les partitions arbitraires, et favorisent au contraire le brouillage et la transgression des limites. Par le biais de cette tension entre le rappel et la suppression des lignes de démarcation, la littérature indienne contemporaine reconfigure la frontière en tant qu’espace contingent, éphémère et fluide, un devenir-lieu plutôt qu’une limite stable. |
| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | This essay analyses the ways in which contemporary Indian literature in English addresses the poetics of the border in the aftermath of colonialism and in the context of the new configurations of a global world, viewed both as a zone of transnational migrations but also as a place where communal divides are violently reasserted. On the one hand, Indian novels acknowledge the rigid lines and frames which define the individual, society and the nation, providing a sense of stability but also of fixity and enclosure. On the other hand, they suggest lines of flight which challenge binary divisions and arbitrary partitions, and favour instead the blurring and transgression of frontiers. Through this tension between the evocation and eradication of boundaries, Indian contemporary literature re-imagines the border as a contingent, transitory and fluid place, a space of becoming rather than a stable limit. |
