Longuement, la question de la productivite du mouvement surrealiste francais sur l’?uvre de Samuel Beckett fut debattue, polarisee entre rejet et acceptation peremptoire. Cette possible influence trouve un point d’appui important dans Samuel Beckett dans les marges du surrealisme, decouvrant une ?uvre faite de reprises et d’emprunts de la poesie surrealiste.
Par un depouillement attentif des archives beckettiennes incluant correspondance, cahiers preparatoires et publications en revue, Bernard-Olivier Posse propose une methode philologique melant analyse litteraire et perspective sociologique propice a reconsiderer la posture auctoriale de Samuel Beckett.
The question of how influential the French surrealist movement has been on the work of Samuel Beckett has been debated for a long time but the answers were only made of peremptory oppositions : either rejection or acceptation. Samuel Beckett dans les marges du surrealisme aims to demonstrate the (ambiguous) way Beckett works with surrealist poetry by a play of quotations which are always repeated, always altered.
Based on research on Beckettian archives such as his correspondence, preparatory notes and publications in journals, this book combines literary analysis and sociological perspective in order to understand how Beckett deals with his self-representation as a writer.
