Dans Cane, les poèmes de Jean Toomer sont le reflet de la nature et des villes, d’un monde rural ou urbain. Cane a été conçu de manière à traduire au plus près la vie des Noirs dans le Sud des États-Unis et de montrer la perception d’un auteur en proie à des questionnements identitaires.En nous interrogeant sur certains des poèmes et extraits de Cane, nous montrerons comment Toomer, en s’appropriant la langue, une caractéristique de la littérature mineure définie par Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari dans Mille Plateaux, réussit à restituer la mémoire du Sud des États-Unis à travers ses paysages. Cela nous permettra d’analyser l’écriture de Toomer dont les multiples interprétations permettent de révéler la mémoire du Sud. |
