Abstract

Relying on certain texts by Tzvetan Todorov, namely Nous et les autres (We and the others), La Conquête de l’Amérique (The Conquest of America), and Les morales de l’histoire (The morals of history), we shall study the literary text as a path towards alterity and as a territory for encountering difference. We also ask ourselves the question “can literature teach alterityˮ.

Key words: cultural diversity, identity, multiculturalism, uniformisation, foreign, world vision
