"corps-et-graphie" Chez Leila Slimani Dans Son Roman Dans Le Jardin De L'ogre

Abstract

The body has always inhabited the artistic field, but in contemporary literature of the 2000s the body has an exceptional cultural and symbolic charge: it is mysterious, forbidden, obscene and subversive. This article discusses the writing of the body and the body of writing in Leila Slimani's first novel, "Dans le jardin de l’ogre". Being inspired by feminist writing, this Franco-Moroccan writer gives us a text in which a bond is woven between the body and the writing to replace the problem of sexual dependence in women, nymphomania. In order to enrich research on the body-writing dialectic and indicate the singular topicality of the contemporary female body, our contribution examines paratextuality and stylistics.
