Summary/Abstract: This article offers a parallel between the doubling of characters in the works of Shakespeare and Marguerite Duras. In Shakespeare, characters change their identity by changing their clothes, while in Duras the same effect is achieved through discursive changes. In both cases, deceiving appearances are created in order to question social or scriptural codes, allowing characters to find their freedom.
