Osons ôter les masques ! Un théâtre, une visée immédiate, une visée suggérée – qu’est-ce qui nous trouble ?

Abstract Our aim is to examine the extinction of humanity as predicted by Matei Visniec and the borderline situations where he envisages the death of the human being ; and, then, to see how he (the writer) imagines the creation of the chance of success. To this end, we question his conception about the world, about life, his capacity of showing - through an inter-subjectivity which regularly lacks - one’s complete lack of experience, this hypothetically being the fundamental cause of identity annihilation, of failure of comprehension and acceptance and ultimately the fundamental cause of the death of language and communication. We will examine Matei Visniec’s way of creating hybrid genres, characters, behaviours in order to suggest a possible end of this action.
