The expression 'Duty to Remember' designates and postulates the moral obligation to remember a historical, tragic event and its victims. Such is the ambition of this book. Indeed, since literature and history collide, we would like to take a look at the Algerian deportees in New Caledonia and this part of the history of the conquest of Algeria, which is little explored by language and culture students. Through this book, we will demonstrate how the novels attributed to them raise, first, the question of exile and the torments of the prison. Then, we will study the memory and its exclusive role as for the conservation even the safeguard of a past which would be otherwise irremediably lost. And on the other hand, we will try to confirm that the memory becomes the motive par excellence to build the imaginary.
