Les émotions de l’eau dans la littérature sentimentale. Le cycle de Marie de Jean-Philippe Toussaint
Journal Title: Lublin Studies in Modern Languages and Literature - Year 2018, Vol 42, Issue 3
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to analyse diverse representations of water in Jean-Philippe Toussaint’s cycle of Mary and the textual effects they produce. Water is not only the crucial aspect of the represented world but also the key narrative component, which shapes the plot, creates nostalgic atmosphere and reveals the philosophical dimension of the novel classifiable as romance. Drawing on selected theories of elements, the paper examines the ways in which Toussaint uses the emotions carried by water to create intensity and depth in a novel about love.
