Archétypes identitaires dans le roman rolinien La maison, la forêt
Archetypes of Identity in Rolin's novel The House, the Forest

Summary/Abstract: The crumbling of Rolin's personality, including the difficult moments of childhood, the collapse of her personal life, the synthetic literary beginnings, is brought to the fore through intimate writing. Anguish, emotional insecurity and a fear of death are all defining traits intimately related with the characters who embody the actors in Dominique Rolin's novel The House, the Forest (La maison, la forêt). This paper is intended as a non-exhaustive but attentive analysis of these aspects of an old couple who no longer find a way to communicate. To achieve this, we propose to explain a whole swarm of moods of the man who is shiveringly waiting for the death of a woman and the modelling of her identity over time. We'll also be focusing on fictional autobiography as a canvas for the novel.
