The heritage of literature in the French language is rich, varied, extensive in time and space, and appealing both to its immediate public-readers of French-and also to a global audience reached through translations and film adaptations. The first great works of this repertory were written in the twelfth century in northern France, and now, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, this literature includes authors writing in many parts of the world, ranging from the Caribbean to Western Africa.
