Abstract

In the introduction to this dossier, we discuss the theme of memory, including references to the new African novel, autobiographies and reportage books on the African colonial period and the events that followed independence in the 1960s and 1970s, as well as theoretical discussions linked to the question of experience. During these discussions, we have inserted some bridges between the themes dealt with by the articles that make up this dossier which, although carried out in heterogeneous spaces and contexts, remind us of the importance and topicality of investigating the “ghosts of memory” in the terms referred to by Carsten (2007).
