SUR QUELQUES ASPECTS D’HYBRIDATION DANS LE ROMAN LA CARTE ET LE TERRITOIRE DE MICHEL HOUELLEBECQ
ON SOME ASPECTS OF HYBRIDIZATION IN MICHEL HOUELLEBECQ’S NOVEL THE MAP AND THE TERRITORY

Summary/Abstract: The hybridization aspects we analyzed in Michel Houellebecq’s The map and the territory are situated on three levels: (1), thematic, (2) linguistic and narrative, and (3) stylistic. On the first level, hybridization is manifested by the mixture of novelistic genres, the linguistic and narrative level is characterized by the mechanism of dialogism and polyphony (free indirect speech, temporal breaks, incises and digressions, use of typographical characters), while the stylistic level reveals the mixing of styles and artistic devices, aiming at marking the change of the enunciative source and, implicitely, of the narrative levels.
