- English abstract
- The French-language book examines the emergence of a Kurdish literary field in the context of ethnic and language conflict. It is based on archival work, ethnography, and interviews, as well as close readings of scores of hitherto undiscussed literary texts. It analyses both the Turkish state and the Kurdish national movement’s language policies. The book offers a critique of ‘field theory’ as it is applied to dominated or peripheral literatures that emerge in infra-national or cross-border political spaces. It is supplemented by the first extensive bibliographies of works published in Kurmanji in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
