« La patrie des esclaves est le soulèvement ». Toussaint Louverture sur la scène théâtrale
Résumé
Toussaint Louverture has been called the Black Spartacus, who leaded the only successful slave revolt in History. The question is: Can Spartacus be victorious? This paper aims to think about this contradiction, this impossibility by analyzing plays based on the life of the Haitian hero written by Lamartine, C.L.R. James and Glissant. How these works deal with the victory problem? I try to bring destituent possibilities out from these texts: marronage and fraternity as bias to preserve subversive virtues beyond the deceptive success.
