Les femmes et les hommes d’Amos Oz
The Women and Men of Amos Oz

Summary/Abstract: The study offers an analytic hypothesis about the search of “the master” and of “real knowledge” in the fictional world created by Amos Oz in several autobiographical novels. Although Amos Oz does not belong to literary postmodernism, he is touched by the spirit of the postmodernists, by their ambiguous agnosticism. He detaches himself from both the Jewish heritage and the radical nihilism of the (post) modernists, but he isolates himself, through the conscience of his heroes and their life stories, in a skeptical relativism, attentive to the internal movements of being, but refusing any clear spiritual solution.
