Présence auctoriale dans les films de Marguerite Duras

In “Time and Autobiography in L’Amant de Marguerite Duras”, Margaret Sankey was one of the first researchers to analyze the autobiographical in the novels of Marguerite Duras. Two years later, Aliette Armel published a book on Marguerite Duras and autobiography. More recently, researchers have focused on the autobiographical dimension of the cinema of Marguerite Duras and on the projection of the self in the paratextual and cinematographic work of the author. Pursuing this work, this study examines the elements that, in connection with the media exposure of the author, deal with the projection of oneself in the films, in particular through the analysis of the incursions of the person of the writer and of her inner circle. This article will also examine the filmic strategies that allow Duras to evoke more subtly fragments of her sensorial memory through the sound and visual aspects of the films.
