Abstract

Yasmina Reza a produit une oeuvre faite aussi bien de pièces de théâtre que de romans. D’après Denis Guénoun, en Reza, se retrouve un “dialogue complexe et conflictuel entre théâtre et roman”. Après avoir exploré les formes que prend ce dialogue, l'article propose de considérer les rapports entre textes de théâtre et texte romanesques plutôt comme une symbiose destinée à occuper tout le champ littéraire en abolissant les frontières génériques communes.

After having explored the forms that this dialogue takes, this article proposes to consider the connections between theatrical texts and novelistic texts as a symbiosis designed to occupy the whole literary field by abolishing any common generic borders.
