Summary/Abstract: The objective of this article is to understand the practice of the literary play, starting with the example of André Schwarz-Bart in relation to Yambo Ouologuem. Strictly speaking, the direction of this play is analysed starting from the initial use of pastiche and parody in the literary context of the fifties and the sixties. This practice is also observable in Schwarz-Bart, since he evokes the figures related to the experience of violence and of relationships. The experiences enable both Schwarz-Bart and Ouologuem to reread collective historicity by the intermediary of romantic fiction, because they aim to incarnate anti-figurations by means of the discourse of the domination. They parody the speech to be mor distinct, owing to the fact that it draws aside the margins of its mental categories.
