Les\u00a0Varia<\/em>\u00a0de ce nouveau num\u00e9ro de la revue\u00a0Sources<\/em><\/a>\u00a0proposent un parcours \u00e0 travers des sources in\u00e9dites, indispensables \u00e0 la connaissance de l\u2019Afrique ancienne et contemporaine. Un des articles pr\u00e9sente une source sonore rare,qui \u00e9claire les tensions complexes \u2014 entre local et global \u2014 au sein des mouvances djihadistes actuelles pr\u00e9sentes au Nigeria. On y trouvera aussi des contributions sur les sources de l\u2019arch\u00e9ologie des sites fun\u00e9raires au Soudan, sur l\u2019approche anthropologique de la migration et de l\u2019asile en Ouganda, sur l\u2019histoire des r\u00e9seaux africano-sovi\u00e9tiques au prisme des archives russes (correspondance du cin\u00e9aste s\u00e9n\u00e9galais Ousmane Semb\u00e8ne), sur les carnets de voyage d\u2019Antoine d\u2019Abbadie en \u00c9thiopie, ou sur les explorations de la Corne de l\u2019Afrique. Nous souhaitons \u00e9galement attirer l\u2019attention sur une contribution qui esquisse un tableau richement document\u00e9 sur les f\u00eates du Nouvel An au Cap et sur leur r\u00f4le dans la construction des identit\u00e9s politiques en Afrique du Sud,\u00a0et qui met \u00e0 la disposition du public un ensemble documentaire exceptionnel rassembl\u00e9 par Denis-Constant Martin. Vous pouvez en d\u00e9couvrir davantage sur le travail de Denis-Constant Martin dans la s\u00e9rie de podcasts de l’IFAS-Recherche “Sounds of Southern Africa<\/a>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Enfin, cette livraison accueille un \u00e9change entre trois historiens rwandais sur l\u2019historiographie du g\u00e9nocide des Tutsi au Rwanda, met en avant la vari\u00e9t\u00e9 des sources \u00e0 utiliser et replace la discussion dans les d\u00e9bats r\u00e9cents sur le rapport de la commission Duclert. Ce texte s\u2019inscrit dans une collaboration avec la Revue d<\/em>\u2019histoire contemporaine de l<\/em>\u2019Afrique<\/em><\/strong><\/a> : les deux revues proposeront tout au long de l\u2019ann\u00e9e \u00e0 venir des r\u00e9flexions diverses sur l\u2019\u00e9criture de l\u2019histoire du g\u00e9nocide et mettront en lumi\u00e8re des mat\u00e9riaux jusqu\u2019ici peu exploit\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Varia in this new issue of <\/a>Sources<\/a> <\/em>offer a journey through unpublished sources that are essential to our knowledge of ancient and contemporary Africa. One of the articles presents a rare sound source, which sheds light on the complex tensions – between local and global – within the current jihadist movements present in Nigeria. There are also contributions on the archaeological sources of burial sites in Sudan, on the anthropological approach to migration and asylum in Uganda, on the history of African-Soviet networks through the prism of Russian archives (correspondence of the Senegalese filmmaker Ousmane Semb\u00e8ne), on Antoine d’Abbadie’s travel diaries in Ethiopia, or on the explorations of the Horn of Africa. We would also like to draw attention to a contribution that sketches a richly documented picture of New Year’s celebrations in Cape Town and their role in the construction of political identities in South Africa, and which makes available to the public an exceptional collection of documents assembled by Denis-Constant Martin. You can find out more about Denis-Constant Martin’s work in the IFAS-Research podcast series “Sounds of Southern Africa<\/a>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Finally, this issue features an exchange between three Rwandan historians on the historiography of the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda, highlights the variety of sources to be used and places the discussion in the context of the recent debates on the Duclert Commission report. This text is part of a collaboration with the Revue d’histoire contemporaine de l’Afrique<\/em><\/strong><\/a>: throughout the coming year, the two journals will propose various reflections on the writing of the history of the genocide and will bring to light materials that have been little exploited until now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
