Abstract EN:

This research is composed of two complementary parts. The first one entitled "secondary school teaching and the study of French literary texts and texts by French speaking authors "is devoted first to the analysis of the French language situation in morocco as well as to the dichotomy of whether to consider French as a language of communication or as a language of culture. In the second stage, this part examines, in the light of both the receptive and the didactic theories, the position of French literary texts and texts by French - speaking authors at the level of both primary and secondary school teaching. It also examines the criteria behind selecting those texts and the methods used for their understanding. The reading of French literary texts at the university level is the subject of the second part. It is related, on the one hand, to a knowledge of the authors, to the works under study, and to the aspirations and expectations of the reading public questioned on the subject matter. On the other hand, it focuses on a corpus of university research papers dealing with the literature of both the "Maghreb" and the negro-African countries. These works are analysed in such a way as to find out about the modes of perception and the different intellectual operations used by the students for their interpretation of literary texts.
