Historicity, Literature, Memory, Imagination, OblivionAbstract
Since the awareness of the importance of history in reorganizing the way of life of the group and the individual, from the birth of writing in the first civilizations, this discipline has not ceased to surpass human knowledge and even the methods used to apprehend it. In this perspective, the reflection carried out in this study proposes a particular outline of research on the relationship between History in the sense of philosophical facticity and narrative in the sense of human memory and imagination. The following study analyses the concepts of historicity, memory, imagination and oblivion, attempting to highlight them through some events found in the sub-Saharan works of En compagnie des hommes and Les veilleurs de Sangomar.
