L’IMAGINAIRE ANIMAL CHEZ HENRY BAUCHAU
L’IMAGINAIRE ANIMAL CHEZ HENRY BAUCHAU

Summary/Abstract: In all bauchaliens writings the animal is beside the mineral and vegetal one of the poles around which revolve the ethical and aesthetic questions of the writer. The presence of the animal in the work of Henry Bauchau legitimizes a dichotomy which is constitutive and in which the beast is not the non-being, but the reflection of the being. The animal condition reveals the savage instincts, a natural primitivism and savagery, but also mildness and obedience to the order, equally important to the writer.
