is a compilation of essays that breaks new ground in the exploration of recent and contemporary cultural expressions emerging from Francophone Oceania. This books explores Francophone Oceania today: a region rich in literary, artistic, and cultural productions, which nonetheless remains a marginalised space within Francophone Studies and disconnected from the mostly Anglophone cultural networks currently deployed in the South Pacific. establishes an état présent of recent and contemporary Francophone Oceanian literature, visual arts, music and cinema. It measures the local and global diffusion of Francophone Oceanian culture today and examines its key thematic and critical approaches, including ecocritical perspectives on art, literature, and cinema, while proposing new directions for research in the region. opens a much-needed critical conversation between scholarly disciplines, between French-speaking and English-speaking academics, and between university researchers, museum professionals, and artistic voices. Our book contains hitherto unpublished contributions by Mā'ohi Nui/French Polynesian writer Chantal T. Spitz and by New Caledonian writer Nicolas Kurtovitch (in English translations by Jean Anderson). Our book aims to draw interdisciplinary bridges among literature, cinema, music and the visual arts, and to account for the various cross-fertilisations currently happening in the region. Ultimately, what emerges from our volume is a multifaceted reflexion on the contemporary existence of Francophone Oceania, showcasing the diversity of views, artforms, critical perspectives and artistic voices that are gathered across its islands and the sea that surrounds them.
