WHEN LITERATURE DIALOGUES WITH THE ARTS: CROSSED AESTHETICS IN THE ALGERIAN LANDSCAPE

Povzetek

Understanding the dynamics between literature and the arts in Algeria is essential, as it reveals a continuous process of dialogue and reinvention since independence. Literature has never been an isolated art; it continuously draws nourishment from theatre, cinema, music, and digital practices. These intersections, far from being isolated, constitute a factual creative matrix, enriching the national narrative. For instance, cinema and theatre amplify the memory of resistance, whereas music transforms poetry into an emotional performance. The digital realm, meanwhile, brings interactivity and a transnational dimension. These dynamics are not merely aesthetic: they are profoundly political and memorial, offering a space of resistance against compartmentalisation (local/global, orality/writing) and affirming a plural identity in perpetual becoming. Ultimately, Algerian literature and the arts unite to form a grand narrative that demands the polyphony of forms to articulate the Algerian experience fully.
