La Narration a la deuxieme personne du singulier dans 'Suicide', d'Edouard Leve : oscillations identitaires et temporelles comme dynamique du Neutre, Suivi du texte de creation 'Jerome Borromee

The first section of this thesis analyses the second person narrative in Edouard Leve's story, Suicide. Built upon studies in narratology on the problems of second person narrative, the analysis shows the voice in Suicide is part of an oscillation, which is also employed in the tense of the narrative, resulting in a neutral text in the sense defined by both Roland Barthes and Maurice Blanchot.;The second section of the thesis presents a creative text; more specifically four short stories narrated by the same narrator-protagonist-narratee and linked by the same central theme of identity and representation. Through confession or inner trial, a young man in his thirties, Jerome Borromee, revisits important friendships of his life, which left him with a feeling of guilt. This guilt arises primarily from doubts he has been having about his sexual orientation and from his aspiration to attain a prestigious socioprofessional identity.;What links the two sections of this thesis is the use of the pronoun "you". Indeed, to showcase the protagonist's inner trial, Jerome Borromee, like Suicide, is narrated in the second person singular.
