| description | Guy Dugas analyzes the content of the poet-president’s correspondence with poet Armand Guibert and writer and sociologist Albert Memmi. In his exchanges with Guibert, Senghor expressed a sense of belonging to the Portuguese people. At the same time, he seemed to see in this Lusitanian spirit a model for his Civilization of the Universal. The tone of his letters to Memmi is more political, sometimes even polemical, addressing not only the treatment of Jews in Senegal, but also the thorny issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Despite certain differences of opinion, a study of this correspondence reveals that Senghor was particularly sensitive to Memmi’s sociological analyses, going so far as to consider the existence of a similarity between the concept of judéité, coined by Memmi, and that of negritude. |
