Clément Baloup est un auteur et dessinateur de bandes dessinées dont l'œuvre est consacrée dans son ensemble à la représentation de la diaspora vietnamienne à travers le monde.
Lors de ce troisième Club Littéraire Francophone, nous aurons le plaisir de lire et d'analyser ensemble la BD Quitter Saïgon (2013), premier tome de la série Mémoires de Viet Kieu. Ce texte met en lumière une page méconnue de l'histoire contemporaine : celle des Vietnamiens contraints à l'exil après la guerre du Vietnam. À travers une narration sensible et des illustrations poignantes, Baloup donne voix à ceux qui, dans le tumulte des bouleversements politiques, ont tout quitté pour tenter de reconstruire leurs vies ailleurs.
Saïgon est tombée il y a 50 ans cette année, un événement qui a marqué la fin de la guerre au Vietnam et scellé le destin de millions de Vietnamiens et celui de leurs descendants. Le Club Littéraire Francophone fournira aux profs participants des ressources pédagogiques adaptées aux paramètres des évaluations et de l'étude approfondie de l'année de terminale, afin qu'ils puissent se servir de la BD de Baloup dans leurs cours. La focalisation cette année sur un texte hybride – la BD mélangeant image et texte – offrira aux profs l'occasion d'intégrer dans les cours un médium littéraire non traditionnel qui rencontre un grand succès auprès de la jeunesse.
Cette séance sera animée par Dr Charlotte Mackay, spécialiste en littéraire francophone à Monash University, et Loveena Narayanen, Assistant
Principal, Head of Languages and French Teacher à Glen Eira College. Nous espérons vous retrouver nombreux pour la découverte d'un géant de
la BD engagée du monde francophone.
