Vagabondage dans Le Mont Damion d’André Dhôtel

Journal Title: Quêtes littéraires - Year 2014, Vol 0, Issue 4

Abstract

"Wandering in André Dhôtel’s Le Mont Damion" ABSTRACT: The paper discusses the theme of wandering in the novel by French author André Dhôtel. The protagonist of Le Mont Damion, Fabien Gort, is not a typical vagrant, as he is a member of an intellectual and quite rich family. However, because of his strong absent-mindedness and strangeness, Fabien is unable to find a place in social structures. People’s hostility leads him to many wanderings and unexpected encounters which influence his existence. The novel seems to be also a generic wandering, as it possesses some features of picaresque novel, adventure novel, initiation story and fairytale fantasy.
