Focusing on the African writer and the language of the former colonial power, The Francophone African Text: Translation and the Postcolonial Experience highlights the writer''s re-appropriation of the foreign language in the creative writing process. It calls attention to the African writer''s use of French, a process of creative translation in which the writer''s words form a hybrid code that compels the original French to refer to the indigenous African language for meaning. Examining a group of works under the theme of translation, this book reveals that a consideration of both ideological and linguistic elements enhances understanding the subject from the broader perspective of post-colonial discourse.
