This article is placed in the framework of the reconsidering of Algerian thought through one of its
symbols, the linguist, novelist and anthropologist Mouloud Mammeri, Which emerged after the Second
World War with the first generation of the Algerian novelists who used the colonial language, such as
Mouloud Feraoun, Kateb Yacine, Mohamed Dib, and Asia Jebbar. He was engaged in the field of
Ethnographic Studies, which was monopolized by the Orientalists, and he is not more than twenty-one
years old. He studied the Amazigh community from inside, with multidiscipline, as history, anthropology,
sociology, linguistics, lexicography, translation of poetry, and recording of the Algerian oral Amazigh
tradition. Indeed, he becomes a model of a multidisciplinary thinker, an intellectual who combines science
and creativity. We will examine the aspects of Mouloud Mammeri’s cultural mind , through the
examination his scientific opinions and novels, in order to describe the nature of the thought produced for
fifty years, and his impact on Algerian culture, and his struggle for language and national values.
