L’INTERPRÉTATION ÉCHOIQUE COMME CLÉ DES TECHNIQUES DU DIALOGUE THÉATRAL CHEZ EUGÈNE IONESCO
THE ECHOIC INTERPRETATION AS A KEY FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE DIALOGUE IN IONESCO’S THEATRE

Summary/Abstract: The Echoic Interpretation as a Key for the Construction of the Dialogue in Ionesco’s Theatre. The present paper concerns the mechanism of the dialogue’s construction in the theatre of Eugène Ionesco, from the point of view of the echoic interpretation – a component of the relevance theory (Dan Sperber & Deidre Wilson 1986/1995). Previous research on this subject has focused on the repetition as a mechanical device. We consider the repetition as a type of echo and we identify three degrees of echo at the level of the dialogue’s construction in the theatre of Ionesco. By providing this analysis, we focus on the creative and play level of the theatre of Ionesco.
