- W940612472 abstract "Though « pidgin French » is now a language of its own in many Francophone countries in Africa, it is practically non-existent as a literary vehicle. The publication of Pétit Minitaire - the translation of Ken Saro-Wiwa’s Sozaboy into French - could perhaps help to change this situation. In the introduction to his novel, Saro-Wiwa stated that he used «rotten English » (« a mixture of Nigerian pidgin English, broken English and occasional flashes of good, even idiomatic English ») partly as an experiment to prove that it was a viable literary language. This is a significant statement for Francophone literature which, on the whole, seems to have been reluctant to cross the threshold of standard French. This paper discusses two basic issues. How can the translation of Sozaboy contribute to Francophone African literature and help to cross this threshold ? What are the limitations and the handicaps of this language as a literary medium ?" @default.
