Les traces littéraires dans La Fable mystique

Abstract

In La Fable mystique, the literary references are regular, punctual, but always precise, never trivial. They constitute significant traces, some remnants of the readings that have nourished the researcher's imagination and serve as a material for his work as a writer, as well as signs guiding his analysis. The way in which Michel de Certeau uses these references, how writes his notes, the whole of his quotation practice, deserve to be specifically analyzed in this perspective.
