	Medicine in Africa Workshop
		For Algerian author Kateb Yacine, as for Frantz Fanon, madness in particular is the paradigmatic sickness of colonialism, while psychiatry operates as a biopolitical machine for the regulation of colonial order.
		Kateb’s poetry, his dramatic works, and his enigmatic novel Nedjma provide crucial sources for the exploring the clinic as a space of colonial oppression, and literature as a site of resistance against both imperialism and the sickness it generates.
		The intention is two-fold: to demonstrate the uses of literature for historians of medicine, and to explore the possibilities of applying methodologies borrowed from the social history of medicine and medical anthropology to literary works with the goal of shedding new light on the political dynamics of sickness and healing.

		Kateb's militancy, always flamboyant and even quixotic, whether in favor of Algerian independence, Stalinist communism, Muslim women, to the right to get drunk, or even Berber cultures, the passion notwithstanding, were for him a secondary preoccupation, compared to writing.
		Kateb Yacine's first name was Yacine and his surname was Kateb, but he retained the inverted order of his name, doubtless in continuance of the usage from public school.
		It was on Wednesday, November 1, the anniversary of the outbreak of the Algerian revolution in 1954, that the writer Kateb Yacine was buried in the El Alia cemetery, at the gates of Alger.

	Research in African Literatures--Too Much in the Sun
		Kateb Yacine's fiction is haunted by the intriguing figure of Nedjma ("star" in Arabic).
		Kateb blames colonialism and Islamic orthodoxy for the plight of Maghrebian women, and thus advocates a French and also Islamic decolonization of North Africa and a return to pre-Roman, or Numidian, pagan values and culture.
		Kateb's Nedjma, as a mediating subject among the various conflicting parties in the narrative, stands in all her guises not only for the repudiation of both Islamic formalism and patriarchy but also of colonialism and imperialism.

		Amrouche's collection is representative of the fate of Algerian literature, a literature born of the severing of what Kateb Yacine would call the "umbilical tie" to the mother tongue.
		Kateb Yacine (1929-89), who was a high school student at the time, took part in these anti-French demonstrations, was imprisoned, and was forbidden access to higher education.
		While for Feraoun school was a symbol of compromise, for Kateb it accentuated the sense of an impasse, of loss and betrayal.

	NITLE Arab World Project (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The narrative techniques Kateb Yacine uses are occasionally disconcerting to the Western reader...the narrative rhythm and construction, if they indisputably owe something to Western experiments in fiction, result in chief from a purely Arab notion of man in time.
		We have seen that Kateb Yacine (whose name written this way is a French distortion of his real name, Yacine Kateb) wrote his theatrical pieces in Algerian dialect, and most of his other work in French.
		Kateb is regarded by many as the father of the modern Maghribi novel, and his case is illustrative of the position taken by many Maghribi intellectuals who, often in contrast to official policy and dominant restrictive ideology, see the Maghrib as pluralist and multi-ethnic.
