Pour une poétique du nomadisme dans l’œuvre d’Ananda Devi
For a Poetics of Nomadism in Ananda Devi’s Works

Summary/Abstract: Far from nourishing the image of a fantasized Orient, Devi takes a sceptical look at the ancestral culture and deconstructs the stereotypes of exotic images and those reducing women to a simple object. Taking pleasure in transgression, she rehabilitates through discursive and linguistic processes the place of the female subject in the narrative space. The author demonstrates intellectual nomadism, through the mixing of identity and culture. In Devi’s text, languages are in alchemy: they rub shoulders, inseminate and proliferate. She handles languages, makes her text dance to rhythms and intonations to accompany her universal themes with a nomadic poetic who works her work in-depth.
