It mainly focuses on Africa, the Middle East, and Canada. The work on Lebanon, partly based on interviews and archives, analyzes the collaboration between a Lebanese and an American publisher, offering methodological and practitioner perspectives on translation and editing. In the context of Francophone Canada, the focus is on immigration, politics, exile and Yiddish culture. A third area concerns representations and politics of Francophone Africa, with texts on representational stereotypes about Francophone Africa, publishing in Francophone Africa today, or resistance to neocolonialism in the Comoros, an archipelago in the Indian Ocean.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ERedefining what is called Francophonie today is an important task for many of us engaged in Francophone studies on Africa in particular.\u0026rdquo;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/modlangs.gatech.edu\/people\/person\/e6717b46-0da8-5bac-a037-1d3b579d8764\u0022\u003EChristophe Ippolito\u003C\/a\u003E works on French and Francophone literature after 1800.
