Summary/Abstract: In the works of Annie Ernaux and Pascal Quignard, the distance they take with the personal dimension of their own experience opens up new avenues for self-writing: by working on a literary estrangement of the intimate, they seek to achieve a paradoxical form of impersonal intimacy, in order to rethink our relationship with subjectivity.
