Raoul Boudreau<\/a> est arriv\u00e9 en litt\u00e9rature acadienne au moment o\u00f9 on avait l\u2019impression que tout avait \u00e9t\u00e9 dit. Marguerite Maillet<\/a> avait publi\u00e9 en 1983 sa remarquable Histoire de la litt\u00e9rature acadienne<\/em> dans laquelle elle remontait jusqu\u2019aux premiers \u00e9crits de la Nouvelle-France. Les po\u00e8tes des ann\u00e9es 1970 avaient beaucoup parl\u00e9 de l\u2019Acadie, en avaient exprim\u00e9 les douleurs et les aspirations. Herm\u00e9n\u00e9gilde Chiasson<\/a>, G\u00e9rald Leblanc<\/a> et bien d\u2019autres avaient cr\u00e9\u00e9 de toutes pi\u00e8ces des institutions culturelles viables \u00e0 Moncton, faisant de cette ville quasi invent\u00e9e le foyer improbable d\u2019une effervescence litt\u00e9raire sans pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent. La conqu\u00eate du silence \u00e9tait donc d\u00e9j\u00e0 bien entam\u00e9e. Que dire de plus ? Que peut-on dire quand on se pointe en retard \u00e0 la f\u00eate ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour Raoul Boudreau, pourtant, il restait aux universitaires de faire \u0153uvre de distanciation. C\u2019\u00e9tait \u00e0 leur tour d\u2019entrer dans la danse, car la deuxi\u00e8me modernit\u00e9 de l\u2019Acadie serait celle d\u2019une prise en charge du savoir. C\u2019est ainsi, sans jamais renoncer \u00e0 son objet \u2013 bien au contraire ! \u2013, qu\u2019il travaillerait en observateur critique d\u2019une litt\u00e9rature acadienne doublement affranchie de ses entraves. Il lui faudrait une mani\u00e8re d\u2019aborder les \u0153uvres qui s\u2019enracine dans une droiture calme et m\u00e9thodique, digne de leur int\u00e9r\u00eat et de leur valeur. La clart\u00e9 serait pour lui le plus grand des dons. Dire les choses comme elles ont \u00e9t\u00e9, comme elles sont. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aujourd\u2019hui, c\u2019est cette int\u00e9grit\u00e9 exigeante que j\u2019admire le plus chez Raoul Boudreau, ce d\u00e9sir de rendre transparente et \u00e9minemment intelligible une mati\u00e8re acadienne en constante mutation. Il ne suffisait de faire na\u00eetre Moncton comme nouvelle capitale culturelle, il lui fallait pouvoir \u00e9noncer les conditions de cette naissance hors-norme. Ce travail d\u00e9lib\u00e9r\u00e9 et r\u00e9fl\u00e9chi du critique et universitaire est ce qui ferait grandir l\u2019Acadie bien au-del\u00e0 d\u2019elle-m\u00eame.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
