@article{Monterrubio_2018, title={La presencia de la materia epistolar en el Nouveau Roman y el Nouveau Théâtre}, volume={26}, url={https://revistas.um.es/analesff/article/view/analesff.26.1.352581}, DOI={10.6018/analesff.26.1.352581}, abstractNote={<p>The present article aims to analyse the presence of the epistolary material in the literary renovation materialised by the scriptural practices of the New Novel and The Theatre of the Absurd. The analysis of the different works –La Dernière Bande (1959) by Samuel Beckett, Le Fiston and Lettre morte (1959) by Robert Pinget, Histoire (1967) by Claude Simon, Correspondance and Réflexions (1968) by Louis Palomb, Aurélia Steiner (1979) by Marguerite Duras– will allow us to determine how their authors instrumentalise the epistolary material to show the impossibility of its realization. The epistolary device then becomes a tool of the rule-breaking practices of these new literary experiences, causing a metamorphosis of the letter that is essential in its evolution within the literary and theatrical space. The missive is generated as a radical expression of subjectivity and as a denial of its communicative characteristics and its possibilities of self-objectivation; it shows a identitary crisis which materialises in the human being’s inability to narrate and narrate oneself, to comunícate.</p>}, journal={Anales de Filología Francesa}, author={Monterrubio, Lourdes}, year={2018}, month={dic.} }
