Abstract EN:

Doubrovsky draws his inspiration from his own life. But we have deliberately chosen not to dwell on the author's autobiography as the latter concludes a novelistic pact with the reader. Therefore, the subject of this thesis is " the novelistic experience of Serge Doubrovsky". This experience is first an experimentation of new genres : the novel-analysis and "self-fiction"; the latter means that the author bears the same name as the narrator and main character of the novel. It is also an experimentation of narrative strategies. In each novel, the author takes up a challenge, pushing further the innovations in novelistic creation. De-constructed reality together with the rebuttal of any chronological coherence allow the author to produce works where the emphasis is on catching the reader off guard as well as aesthetics and stylistic devices. Indeed, the novelistic experience of doubrovsky lies above all in the search for poetic and consonant style, outside syntactic preocupations and popular wisdom. All his preocupations concerning the writing of fiction without complete adherence to reality mean that he is a true novelist, that we have endeavoured to bring to the attention of the public, highlighting what makes him an original writer.
