Gli avantesti delle opere abbandonate. Georges Perec e la disseminazione dei fantasmi del romanzo
2022
The abandoned work is a form of voluntary incompletion because the interruption of the writing process is decided by the author himself. Abandonment is preceded by considerations and traces that make the process intelligible, especially when identified in avant-textual documents in which the author often not only plans the construction of the text but also reasons about it by tracing the criticalities that condition its progress. The article aims to reflect on some aspects of Georges Perec's abandoned works, showing how these are integrated within the completed works through the processes of dissemination and proliferation.
Perdre le fil: labyrinthes de la littérature française moderne
2009
From the day when Theseus killed the Minotaur, the Maze turned into a form in search of meaning, and became useless. As a result, one was enjoined to ascribe nw meanings to the empty strcuture. Modern writers, when confronted with such a void, will have explored all its possibilities: while some of them, like Michel Butor, dismiss the sacred dimensions, others, like Serge Doubrovsky, see in it the image of the self (the body, the psyche...), and others still, like Raymond Roussel, Alain Robbe-Grillet or Georges Pererc, make of the pure geometrical structure of the labyrinth an aesthetic model, and thus a mirror of the work of art. However, one still have to ask whether the labrinth is a val…
L’anamorphose du roman : les distorsions de la perspective dans "la Disparition" de Georges Perec
2007
L’anamorphose apparaît en application aux arts plastiques et se traduit par le bouleversement du point de vue habituel. Cette distorsion visuelle, en créant le caractère énigmatique de l’œuvre, vise à la déstabilisation du spectateur qui, sollicité par les formes, participe de la pluralité de la vision et de la démultiplication des possibles interprétatifs. Cette relativité de la place du spectateur permet la migration du concept d’anamorphose au domaine littéraire et son application en tant que pratique de création ou, plutôt, de réception : L’anamorphose […] procède par une intervention des éléments et des fonctions. Au lieu d’une réduction progressive à leurs limites visibles, c’est une …
Rappresentazioni vertiginose. Tre esempi: Perec, Lequeu, Douat
2022
Nel novembre del 2009 il Museo del Louvre decise di affidare a Umberto Eco la direzione di una serie di conferenze da tenere su un argomento di sua scelta. Eco scelse il tema della ‘lista’ conferendo a quella manifestazione il nome di Vertige de la liste a cui seguì un saggio dallo stesso titolo pubblicato da Bompiani. Questa breve nota prende in prestito la stessa tematica che, per via del suo carattere altamente ete-rogeneo, è in grado di coinvolgere diversi ambiti del sapere senza minimamente accennare ad esaurirsi. L’elenco, strettamente legato alla figura retorica dell’accumulazione, può infatti costituirsi di segni, parole, suoni e di qualsiasi altra forma di rappresentazione utile a …
Il Cabinet d'amateur di Georges Perec
2011
In 1979 one year after the publication of La vie mode d’emploi, George Perec wrote Cabinet d’amateur. Histoire d’un tableau, in which he tells the story of a painting belonging to the genre of the cabinet d’amateur, also known as kunst- und wunderkammer. It is a collection of different paintings, usually belonging to a rich man or a notable, portrayed (once again) in a single picture celebrating the magnificence of this more or less real collection. As for the pictorial genre, so the short novel is the celebration of the images collected by George Perec in his previous masterpiece, La vie mode d’emploi. This is why I assume this work to be referable to the genre of structural homology more …
The Impossible Portait. Georges Perec and His Condottiere
2016
Continuous and more or less veiled references, descriptions, inventions, images characterize the poetry of Georges Perec. But above all one image is significant not only to his poetics but to himself: that of Le Condottière, translated in english as Portrait of a Man. On 2012, thirty years after Perec’s death, the last piece of his literary image was discovered. Actually, it is the first image of this complex puzzle, the first time Gaspard Winckler, Perec’s recurrent alter-ego, appeared on the scene. Three main characters stay on the stage of Portrait of a Man: Gaspard Winckler, Antonello da Messina and the unknown warlord himself. Behind them stays, of course, Perec, the “character” into w…
Dessine de tous tes yeux, dessine ! Apprendre l’architecture avec Georges Perec

De l’effet transformatif de l’imaginaire :
2019
The polymorphic concept of the novel and the intertextuality of the literary genres characterize the work of Georges Perec, whose writing looks into different genres, codes and models and combines them in order to preserve the singularity of each of his works. Among these W ou le souvenir d’enfance, an unclassifiable novel that alternates fiction and childhood memories, has been the result of a very difficult writing process, that genetic documents can only partly clear up. We propose to reflect on the process of re-functionalization of the adventure novel W, which appeared before as a serialized text in the journal La Quinzaine littéraire and was then integrated into the great autobiograph…
Le rôle des paratextes dans l’interprétation de la contrainte de La disparition de Georges Perec
2013
Tutkimuksen kohteena on Georges Perecin kokeellinen romaani La disparition (Denoël 1969). Tarkemmin pureudutaan romaanin parateksteihin, eli varsinaista kertomusta ympäröiviin teksteihin, jotka tekevät tekstistä kirjan. Niitä ovat tässä tutkimuksessa otsikko, kirjailijan nimi, alkusanat, esipuhe, sisällysluettelo, väliotsikot, jälkisanat, takakansiteksti sekä teoksen loppuun sijoitettu osio ”Métagraphes”, johon Perec on valikoinut sitaatteja. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on selvittää, miten kyseiset paratekstit ohjaavat teoksen tulkintaa: mikä on kunkin paratekstin tehtävä. Tulkinta määritellään tässä tutkimuksessa sekä yksilölliseksi että kollektiiviseksi merkityksenannoksi, johon limittyy myös…
Ombre di memoria. Immagini e storie di migranti da Richard Mosse a Georges Perec
2019
The following pages present the analysis of a crucial issue for the genre of the photo-text, that of migrations intended as stories of wandering and hope and respect to which the literary word and the photographic image are still questioning, especially for what concerns the opportunity and the modalities of narration and memory. Two cases distant in time and space seem to offer a reflection on the inexhaustible question, and above all on the way in which it can be tackled without falling back into the often sterile ground of documentary or memorial narration: Incoming (2017) by the photographer Richard Mosse and Récits d’Ellis Island. Histoires d’errance et d’espoir (1980), the work of Geo…
