    Editions Rodopi 2007; US$ 56.00

    Maurice Blanchot est certainement l’un des plus éminents penseurs et écrivains du vingtième siècle, dont le retrait et la discrétion ont laissé la marque même de son effacement comme événement de l’expérience littéraire. C’est par une démarche de dialogue avec les artistes qui... more...

    Editions Rodopi 2008; US$ 100.80

Proust aurait-il oublié son auteur de prédilection, celui qu'il... more...
