Abstract

This book retraces the epic and disappointments of a young Congolese
who came to conquer Paris. Just a few months after his arrival, he was
threatened with deportation. Through this work, at the intersection between
Franco-African and post-colonial literature, we focus our attention on the
many anecdotes symptomatic of the magnitude of the emphasis and its
repercussions on the daily lives of the two main characters as well as that of
their entourage. More specifically, our article examines the question of how
emphasis contributes to the idea of the decline of the values and references of
the African people today. The approach adopted borrows from that of
Moudileno (2006). In this sense, we note the manifestations of the emphatic
exaltation that destabilizes the lives of certain characters, before analyzing its
repercussions on their behaviour. Finally, in a final step, the behavioural
evolution of the hero, Massala-Massala, facing the reality of his adventure is
submitted to examination. The use of emphasis testifies to the loss and
decline of African ancestral values and references
