| Résumé: | It is a little-known fact: the Provençal writer Henri Bosco (1888-1976) spent almost 25 years in Morocco, between 1931 and 1955. As well as publishing several important works, including Le Mas Théotime (ed. Charlot, 1945), which won the Renaudot Prize, during this very complicated period he edited the magazine Aguedal (around twenty issues, suspended at the start of the war, and a few offprints). Because of its longevity and the richness of its summaries, and because it was rooted in the Arab and Berber environment without equal among the North African journals of the colonial period, Aguedal represents a major element in the literary history of North Africa. It was the crucible for a reflection, thwarted by the war, on an ‘oriental metaphysics’ inspired by the doctrine of René Guénon, which would irrigate part of contemporary Moroccan literature, in Arabic or French, thanks to intellectuals such as Mohamed-Aziz Lahbabi or Ahmed Sefrioui. |
