"Per il recupero del patrimonio culturale berbero algerino in Cabilia”

Algeria has a rich cultural inheritance. The Berbers, the indigenous inhabitants of North Africa, are engaged in the collection and preservation of their oral literary. Kabylia in the north of Algeria is a Berber-speaking region that has assumed a dissident role in Algerian literature and policy. Some Kabyle literary productions reveal the presence of a project for a renewed society, based on recognition of cultural and linguistic rights. Through the investigation of some important writers in narratives told in Kabyle and in novels written in French by Kabyle authors, this paper relates some interactions between oral and written productions as historical issues of the relationship between the Kabyle society and the Algerian nation. Since the independence, the successive governments have always denied the Berbers their cultural and linguistic rights. Throughout the collection and the preservation of their cultural inheritance, the Berbers have always defended their ancestral homeland and their identity.
