L’écriture du trauma dans „Circonfession“ de Jacques Derrida
The writing of the trauma in "Circonfession" by Jacques Derrida

Summary/Abstract: Autobiographical narrative that evacuates the bios and questions the "I" as a unique instance, capable of telling the truth of an existence, „Circonfession“ of Jacques Derrida also proposes as a writing of the trauma, the one prior to the memory, the circumcision, and the one to come, the shameful event, the death of the mother. Located upstream and downstream of the story, these two wounds impose each of the constraints that the confession will only overcome by the failure of the memory and, thanks to the iconographic corpus included in the book, by the migration of the confession of the readable to the visible.
