Orality and literatureLorsque l'alphabet et l'écriture finissent par envahir irrévocablement une collectivité, qu'il s'agisse des Nambikwaras en Amazonie (Lévi-Strauss, Tristes Tropiques) ou de l'Acadie littéraire d'Antonine Maillet, ils la transforment de fond en comble. L'entrée dans la «galaxie Gutenberg» (McLuhan) a le plus souvent été caractérisée comme une perte, tant sur le plan socioculturel qu'au niveau de la création écrite individuelle. Aussi le présent volume propose-t-il de réhabiliter l'oral non seulement en le récupérant dans les textes, mais aussi en décelant l'influence qu'il peut avoir sur l'écrit. |
