The Topic of the Return: a Creative Source of Paratopic Writing in the Disparition de la langue française by Assia Djebar

Summary/Abstract: In this paper, we study the topic of the return as a creative source of paratopic writing in La Disparition de la langue française by Assia Djebar. In this novel, the author creates many universes by swinging from one universe to another. She shifts from “je” to “il”, from analepses to prolepses, from masculine to feminine, from space to time, from memory to history and vice versa in a continuous movement. These in-between worlds are generated by the topic of the return. They enable us to shed light on the writer’s paratopic writing.
