The Ambiguous Role Of The Algerian Historical Society In The French Colonial Project In Algeria: Focus On Military Interpreters
Authors : Kazi-tani Lynda .
Abstract
During the French colonization of Algeria, the colonizers deliberately sought to appropriate Algerian cultural heritage. This campaign targeted both physical artifacts and intangible knowledge. Fascinated by the richness of this heritage, the colonizers employed orientalist methodologies and relied on military translators and interpreters to investigate and exploit resources that rightfully belonged to the indigenous population. This article aims to bring attention to the often-neglected role played by the 'Algerian Historical Society' through the Revue Africaine, during this historical period. By revisiting the history of this organization, we aim to restore historical accuracy and highlight its crucial role in the conflict that has shaped over a century of Algerian history.
