| Résumé anglais |
The object of this interpretation of Barthelme's short story « Sentence », is to go beyond the obviously meta-fictional aspects of the text, in which a sentence struggles to delay the inevitable moment of its death in the final full stop. The analysis of the « voice » in/of the sentence draws on the critical resources of enunciation linguistics, the theory of the relationship between language and death put forward by Giorgio Agamben, Bakhtinian dialogism, and W. Benjamin's theology of language. The personified sentence is seen to be a modern incarnation of Sheherazad. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
