Francophonie
In the Time of the Revolution, Maryse Condé
On October 5 and 16, 1997, a conference on Slavery in the
Francophone World was held at the University
of Georgia.
A highlight of the symposium was the English language premier of
the play In the Time of the Revolution about the slave revolts in
Haiti and Guadeloupe by Maryse Condé. The play was directed
by Dr.
Freda Scott Giles, Associate Professor in Drama and the Institute
for African American Studies at the University of Georgia. Professor
Condé participated in the symposium and attended the production
of the play. The video from the Athens performance is available upon
request (contact Doris Y. Kadish, dkadish@uga.edu.)
