| dc.description.abstract | The present research paper falls within the field of comparative literature. It aims to compare the French novelist Louis Ferdinand Celine’s Voyage au Bout de la Nuit (1932) and the Sierra Leonean author Ishmael Beah’s A Long Way Gone (2007). Our major interest in this dissertation is to explore the literary affinities between these two works and to analyze their depiction and interpretation of violence, war and coercion as it is experienced by both authors respectively in France and Sierra Leone. In order to reach the main objectives of this research, we have made appeal to the theory put forward by Hanna Arendt,War and Revolution as it is discussed and analyzed in her book On Revolution (1963). We have divided our dissertation into two chapters. The first chapter is entitled violence in Celine’s and Beah’s novels (physical and psychological violence). The second chapter entitled war and coercion in the two works. Finally, in the conclusion we have given an overview about the ideas that are developed in our present dissertation and we have confirmed our hypothesis. | en |
