“Lâche pas la patate”: French Language Cultures in Louisiana

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This chapter provides an overview of the historio-cultural of the development of the French language and French-based cultures in Louisiana both before and after it became an official part of the United States in 1812. Highlights include descriptions of the various ways the French language has been categorized throughout the centuries, including economic and political factors involved. Legal and other attempts to destroy the French language in Louisiana in the early 20th century are described, along with what has been called a Renaissance of French in the 1960s, a multivalent program which can be linked to other local and regional protest movements of the time against Western consumerism and militarism. The development of formal French language school education in Louisiana beginning in the 1970s is also traced. One of the primary themes of the chapter involves a problematization of the received binary of Cajun/Creole through analyses which include the relatively recent emergence of Louisiana Créolité, a movement to unite all French-language cultures of Louisiana which problematizes several periphery/center binaries. The chapter ends with a few comments regarding whether French Louisiana can be truly considered a part of “the South.”
