About the Book

Le terme idiotie est cr???? au d??but du 19e si??cle pour remplacer celui d'idiotisme qui d??signait ?? la fois l'absence de culture et la stupidit?? au sens m??dical. Pourtant l'origine grecque introduit une nuance : idios signifie ce qui est sp??cial, propre ou original. De l??, dire que l'idiot, de Dosto??evski notamment, appartient ?? la cat??gorie des m??lancoliques, ??tres exceptionnels et artistes selon Aristote dans le Probl??me XXX, encourage une nouvelle d??finition du terme. Cet ??loge de l'idiotie observe pour la premi??re fois de pr??s le ph??nom??ne de l'idiotie romanesque en Occident ?? travers le 20e si??cle. ?? la diff??rence du 19e, le personnage idiot ne transmet pas seulement un th??me mais bien une nouvelle fa??on de s'exprimer et d'??crire. Mettant en dialogue les termes idiotie et rh??torique, cette ??tude offre un examen m??ticuleux de quatre textes choisis et r??unis de fa??on in??dite: Nadja de Breton, Le Bruit et la Fureur de Faulkner, L'Innommable de Beckett et Marelle de Cort??zar. Nadja, Benjy, l'Innommable et la Maga manifestent une ignorance et une singularit?? qui font d'eux ces idiots pers??cut??s du fait de leur perception ?? anormale ?? de la r??alit??. Tout s'inverse lorsque leurs propos ??tranges se m??lent ?? la langue originale de chacun des livres. Proche de l'??crivain, l'idiot est ?? son tour m??taphore de la rh??torique ?? l'??uvre, la figure id??ale pour remettre en question toute pr??tendue intelligence ou raison au profit de l'??loge d'une forme de na??vet??, une bienheureuse ??thique de l'idiotie. ?? On doit ?? Marie Berne une remarquable ??tude de cette idiotie litt??raire, qu'elle analyse ?? travers quatre romans ou r??cits du si??cle dernier [...]. Elle s'inspire ?? son tour de la d??finition propos??e par Cl??ment Rosset, mais elle ne l'oublie pas en route et, surtout [...] elle l'applique efficacement au domaine litt??raire; ?? Alain Roger (Br??viaire de la B??tise. Biblioth??que des id??es. Paris: NRF, Gallimard, 2008, pp.195)
