Les silences dans la dramaturgie giralducienne
Journal Title: Quêtes littéraires - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 7
Abstract
"The silences in Giraudoux’ dramaturgy" ABSTRACT: Technical and rhetorical devices used by Giraudoux to indicate silence vary during its dramatic production. Silences have to do with relationships of the characters, both emotionally and dialogal, and are sometimes loaded the unspoken or unspeakable. By their relationship to the word and to the game, they are at the heart of a dramaturgy that oscillates between mimesis and rupture. And certain silences are like the limit assigned to the power of words in a theater yet claimed as literary.
