Many writers started their professional lives in very diverse fields before embracing writing, or on the contrary have turned away from writing. The present volume seeks to explore the complex relationship between that ‘other life’ and writing. The aim is to determine whether a writer’s ‘other life’ appears in, influences or even shapes his/her work, and to what extent. What is the part of gestation and that of rupture? A diversity of writers is examined: Patrick Chamoiseau, J. M. Coetzee, Jan J. Dominique, Janet Frame, Amitav Ghosh, L. K. Johnson, Wilson Harris, Dany Laferrière, Yannick Lahens, NourbeSe Philip, Emmelie Prophète, Arundhati Roy, Edward Said, but also Bartolomé de las Casas and E. L. Grant Watson.Unpublished autobiographical essays and a poem are included, especially written for the volume by Marie-Célie Agnant, Cyril Dabydeen and Fred D’Aguiar.De nombreux écrivains ont débuté leur vie professionnelle dans des domaines très divers avant d’embrasser l’écriture, ou au contraire de s’en éloigner. Ce volume cherche à explorer la relation complexe entre cette « autre vie » et l’écriture. L’objectif est de déterminer si l’« autre vie » d’un écrivain figure dans son œuvre, l’influence voire la façonne, et si tel est le cas, dans quelle mesure. Quelle est la part de la gestation et celle de la rupture ? Est examinée l’œuvre d’écrivains aussi différents que Patrick Chamoiseau, J. M. Coetzee, Jan J. Dominique, Janet Frame, Amitav Ghosh, L. K. Johnson, Wilson Harris, Dany Laferrière, Yannick Lahens, NourbeSe Philip, Emmelie Prophète, Arundhati Roy, Edward Said, mais aussi Bartolomé de las Casas et E. L. Grant Watson.Deux essais autobiographiques et un poème inédits sont inclus, spécialement écrits pour le volume par Marie-Célie Agnant, Cyril Dabydeen et Fred D’Aguiar.
