As much as Sélim Baghli’s poetry can be choppy, faltering, and self-conscious, Farid Laroussi’s is direct, self-assured and firm. Where Baghli’s verses co-opt Verlaine, Laroussi’s prose has a clear link to Rimbaud. This article does not attempt to illuminate an obvious paradox in the hazy style of literary critique, but instead it attempts to understand how the poems of Baghli and Laroussi portray, in their own way, a subject that resists the ravages of the past all the while existing in the post-coup era, finding themselves more or less shaped by the theme of “Algeria in spite of it all.”

What have we learned from the recent wealth of studies about the Early Modern French Atlantic, produced by both Francophone and Anglophone historians ? This historiographical survey focuses on three aspects of the issue : a refining and questioning of the Atlantic model as a coherent and integrated economic space ; slavery, its consequences and its forms of resistance ; and the creation and circulation of knowledge. Studies about regional and individual specificities are particularly enlightening in this matter. Some potential avenues for further research are also suggested.

This article studies the Natural Histories and Travel Narratives of sixteenth century French authors with regard to their confessional discourse. In which ways did these genres serve the spiritual geopolitics of Catholics in Protestants, the so-called Huguenots, in French Atlantic? How did these Natural Histories and Travel Narratives develop between the sixteenth and late seventeenth centuries? Did they lose importance because of the controversies between Protestants and Catholics in France? What happened with the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes? Did French Protestant Travel Narratives still promote the establishment of Huguenot colonies in the French colonies?
