« Les envers d’un échec » : le cas d’Amos ou les fausses espérances d’Anna Langfus
“The flipside of an error”: The case of Amos or False Hopes by Anna Langfus

Summary/Abstract: The current article is a preliminary sketch of the study of recurring motives found in the dramatic works of Anna Langfus. After a short presentation of the profile of the writer and the role of the theater in her life, we look into an unpublished play Amos ou les fausses espérances / Amos or False Hopes (1961). The concept of “patterns of transitivity”, proposed by Jean-Pierre Richard in Onze études sur la poésie moderne / Eleven Studies on Modern Poetry, is guiding our reading of Langfus’ play in this context.
