Abstract [fr]

Le genre autobiographique, malgré une popularité qui ne se dément pas depuis deux siècles, ne bénéficie pas d’une définition claire. Cet article se propose de montrer que cela est sans doute dû à l’hybridité intrinsèque de ce genre qui se traduit aussi par un pacte autobiographique complexe. Plus précisément, en s’appuyant sur les cas de Constant et de Nothomb, sera démontré que la lecture qui est faite des écrits intimes détermine bien souvent le genre. En ce qui concerne en particulier ces deux auteurs, leur personnalité changeante, contradictoire voire affabulatoire repousse le genre autobiographique dans ses limites, illustrent l’adage selon lequel le roman est plus vrai que la réalité vécue.

 

Abstract [en]

The autobiographical genre, despite its popularity for two centuries, does not have a clear definition. This article intends to show that this is probably due to the inherent hybridity of this genre which is also reflected by a complex autobiographical pact. Specifically, relying on the case of Constant and Nothomb, it will be demonstrated that the reading of the personal writings often determines the genre. As regards in particular these two authors, their changing personality, even contradictory and mythomaniac pushes the autobiographical genre to its limits, confirming the saying that the novel is more real than the reality.
