Summary/Abstract: cultural phenomenon can only be understood through a circular motion which combines a concrete demonstration with the value of expression, a society externalized in a symbolic way and an individual who is expressed. The manifestation of the individual who builds his identity through the expressive phenomenon acquires sense only through a number of circumstances constituting the cultural context in which this phenomenon takes place and expresses the society in a symbolic way. The relationship between two of the three terms already mentioned, namely expressive manifestation, individual and society cannot be understood in the absence of the third. If one of these aspects is ignored one speaks about reduction. "Expressionist reduction" when we ignore the context, the cultural capital of a particular epoch, "institutional reduction", which sees the individual as a mere product of a culture without appropriating its manifestations, or "reifying reduction" carried out when culture is seen as independent from those who live it. Based on these observations belonging to Jean Caune (Culture et communication. Convergences théoriques et lieux de médiation - Culture and Communication. Theoretical Convergences and mediation forums, 2006), we propose an approach of the volume La part manquante - The missing part (1989). The author, Christian Bobin, whose favorite means of literary expression is the fragment, a concentrated writing materialized in small pictures which surprise the moment.
