Untitled

If it is simply that

She joined the Algerian student strike of 1956, in support of the Algerian struggle for independence.

it is insignificant to her bio. If she lost her scholarship, or failed to graduate, or took 2 years off to go back to Algiers for it, say so and put it back. Saying "a member of the Resistance, " means fighting the Axis in WWII, which in 1958 made him a veteran, not a member. Or if it was a resistance movement then active against France, that needs to be said she said. Also wikify it accordingly.

If she did much beyond the strike and choice of spouse for national independence, pulling all of that together in a 'graph may be worth while.

Feminine Writing

A lot of great information on Djebar's feminine writing. It's important to note how she referred to herself as a writer, hence, my recent addition. The question lingers in my head - did she really identify herself as a feminist, or a writer that practices "feminine writing"?NestleNW911 (talk) 19:44, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

More food for thought: Ghaussy writes in "A Stepmother Tongue: 'Feminine Writing' in Assia Djebar's Fantasia: An Alegerian Cavalcade":

"Theories of an scripture feminine remain highly debated (even among the pioneers of these ideas themselves), and one must distinguish carefully between their use of positing "essential truths" about feminine writing and their use as political strategy to further a variety of feminist goals. A "feminine language" is employed, for example, to disrupt and question, as Ann Rosalind Jones stresses, such fundaments of patriarchal thought as "the modes through which the West has claimed to discern evade -- or reality -- and suspicion concerning efforts to change the position of women that fail to address forces in the body, in the unconscious, in the basic structures of culture that are invisible to the empirical eye" (Writing the Body 361).NestleNW911 (talk) 20:05, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"Analysis"

In 2013, an IP removed most of a section called "Analysis". They did so for a specious, dumb reason: "English language readings for English language Wikipedia". Removing the section for a valid reason would have been better--"we're not a bibliography" is one of them. I'm pasting the list below, in all its unformatted glory, as possibly helpful to other editors. Drmies (talk) 17:52, 17 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Career

Assia Djebar worked as the director for the center of French and Francophone studies at Louisiana State University. I have added that edit. Maybe someone else can look into what she did as the director.Bluepillow01 (talk) 19:23, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
