-Voici une excellente introduction a la litterature noire par la voie royale de ses meilleurs ecrivains. Il faut feliciter Dr. Giguere pour sa selection: il a retenu les auteurs les plus representatifs. Ses commentaires aideront le lecteur extra africain a penetrer dans un univers complexe... Il faut le remercier aussi de nous presenter l'extraordinaire autobiographie de Wole Soyinka: je la prefere a toute autre pour l'humour, l'emotion et la qualite du style.- (Lilyan Kesteloot, Professeur de litterature africaine, Universite de Dakar, Senegal)
-Dr. Giguere has made an excellent choice from among the foremost black writers of this century: Mongo Beti, Aime Cesaire, Leopold Sedar Senghor, Wole Soyinka, to name but a few... The concise analyses along with the pedagogical apparatus that accompany each selection will prove an invaluable tool for the teaching of African and Caribbean literature and culture. I recommend highly that 'Ecrivains noirs' be incorporated as a text in the general curriculum of French and Francophone studies.- (Maurice Cagnon, French and Francophone Literatures, Montclair State College)
-"Ecrivains noirs" is an anthology that would be most useful for instructors who, like me, have no knowledge of black writers in French and would like to include this type of literature in introductory and intermediate courses. It proposes to the instructor and students tools which would help in the understanding of such a literature (choice of text, introductions, questions). I look forward to using "Ecrivains noirs" in some of my courses.- (N. K. Murstein, Professor of French, Connecticut College)
-This much needed anthology illustrates the global nature of the study of French. No longer can we say that French is solely a European language; as these selections make clear, it is part of contemporary African and West Indian cultures. The readings introduce the student to writers who were among the first to use European languages to express non-Western cultural perspectives.- (Eloise A. Briere, State University of New York at Albany)
