Richard Millet : nationalisme et/ou francité
| Resumo: | Richard Millet is currently a well-know writer. His positions generate polemics, in particular when he evokes the French and European cultural evolutions. For many, in the French literary field he symbolizes a conservative spirit. With respect to literary tradition, some of his novels which take place in his native Corrèze, the country, ties him to nationalism. But he refuses to be defined in this way, as he feels as a man of two countries: Corrèze and Lebanon. He prefers to claim his commitment to frenchness. He tries to defend the french culture, its language, its classicism without regard to France proper. The difference he makes between these two words: nationalism and frenchness, is in fact a sign that his point of view against modernity is melancholic. The correzian novels illustrate his way of thinking, when he depicts a world gone forever. |
