The issue of language and its decentralizing implications in the literary field represent the great challenge theoreticians and writers from the French-speaking Antilles have faced. How has the linguistic issue moved into their discourse, and what position have writers adopted in the face of French-metropolitan literary models? In this paper I adopt Édouard Glissant’s work as my theoretical framework. He proposes, among other things, that the linguistic concept of creolization be transferred from the cultural to the literary field, as a metaphor for appropriation. He also updates the debate around the aesthetic debt to European models. Starting from an understanding of creolization as a métissage, conceived as a process, with results that are essentially unpredictable and whose symbol is the creole language, Glissantian poetics build the concept of Relation around the region’s multilingualism, the dialectics between oral and written works, and the questioning of literary genres. To illustrate this in the literary field, we will take examples from a corpus consisting of works written and published at the end of the 1980s in Guadalupe and Martinique.

Palavras-chave : Antillean debate; French language; literary creolization.
