Page 10 pages
Résumé anglais R. Carver's work has recently been the object of numerous studies in the United States as well as in France. Using the example of his short story « Why, Honey ? », this paper examines some of them in the light of Eco's contention — in reaction to what he considered as a « crisis » in interpretative theory, leading to various excesses and overinterpretations — that the legitimacy of one interpretation should be measured against the intentio operis at work in a particular text. It thus proposes an analysis of the narrative strategy used by Carver, which conditions the reader's response and questions the legitimacy of some other available interpretations.
