Abstract

Often described as an encyclopedia, l’Hommage à la femme noire has come to a turning point when it was republished in March 2020 and May 2021 by the Caribbean publisher CaraïbEditions. Thirty years after it was first published, this work by Simone and André Schwarz-Bart is no longer an expensive and unfathomable book, but is now intended to open up to as many readers as possible. Through this article, the author engages in a critical thinking about the questions that this new publication has raised, from the absence of illustrations to the subtle change in the signature, “Simone et André Schwarz-Bart” instead of “Simone Schwarz-Bart”.
