Abstract
Abstract: This article offers new reflections on the articulation of Pied-Noir and Algerian Jewish memory through the figure of the “Pied-Noir Jew” in French culture. The analysis of cinematographic materials and their literary sources shows how Algerian Jewish screen and stage artists participated in the creation in France of a nostalgic cultural community of Algerian Jews and French-European ex-settlers while also navigating the tensions and differences between Pied-Noir and Jewish memory of Algeria. The aporetic figure of the “Pied-Noir Jew” as a cultural and affective concept encapsulates the afterlife of Algerian Jews’ entangled identities.
