« Roman » psychanalytique et écriture de l’histoire

With the main help of the article "The psychoanalytic 'novel'. History and literature", this paper aims at developing and articulating two propositions made by Michel de Certeau: first that literature is the theoretical discourse of historical processes and second that novel is what relates theory to the event-driven occurrence of its limits. The practice of quotation and the imaginary of the "strata" are used as grounds for observing writing events in which a poetics of the relations between past and present comes to articulate a resuming "outside" - a figure of the real - into the writing that represents it.
