Page de contenu
The study day organized at Inalco on December 15, 2016 set out to explore new avenues of research in order to (re)think the problematic of exile in the field of literary creation in the Maghreb, and to do so in light of the emergence of new trans/inter-national issues, particularly those linked to the increase in human flows at Europe's gates and both the socio-political and symbolic closure of its borders.

Françoise Robin, professor of Tibetan language and literature, discusses the short, two-wave history of the Tibetan diaspora in France from the perspective of Tibetan catering. She also shows that, as much as economics and gastronomy, culture and politics are at the heart of these establishments.
Jewish diasporic languages
Page de contenu
Jewish languages should always be understood in the plural. There isn't just one Jewish language, the Hebrew spoken in Israel, but many languages, of which Yiddish, Judeo-Arabic and Judeo-Spanish are the most visible, and are most often spoken by multilingual people for whom they are languages born of Jewish culture in diaspora countries. In this text, our colleagues explain the particularities of these languages.
Macedonian diasporas
Page de contenu
The diasporic phenomenon contains, in its definition: the dispersal of a people or ethnic community, the idea of loss and alienation. The existence of a diaspora implies a separation, or even a break, with a unit of belonging. Before dispersion, individuals were grouped into variable units: ethnic group, ethnic community, people, nation. Likewise, diaspora implies separation from a place considered to be "the homeland/country of origin". As a result, it represents a separation from the group to which one belongs and the place of origin; the severing of group and spatial ties, leading to integration, rather than assimilation, in a foreign place, turning its members into foreigners.
