Summary/Abstract: Contemporary philosophy, aware of the urgency of clearing up the brownian route of the being across the world, tries to answer the questions regarding the exile. The interest invested in the problem of uprooting, straying, but also in hospitality or inhabitance, in the problem of the stranger and "otherness" is symptomatic. For some of these philosophers it becomes a problem of self identity, they themselves being exiled thinkers. For the others, it represents a matter of understanding from the point of view of the host. Anyhow, we have followed the reasoning of Alain Montandon, Jacques Derrida, Theodor W. Adorno, in order to try to understand the specific character of the literary exile.
