La lecture lacanienne du roman durassien Le Ravissement de Lol V. Stein : l’expérience « autre » de l’inconscient et du langage
A Lacanian reading of the novel by Marguerite Duras The Ravishing of Lol Stein − the “other” experience of the subconscious and the language

Summary/Abstract: Inscribed in human condition, Loss is an integral part of Duras’s work. It is a leitmotif of the novel Le Ravissement de Lol V. Stein (The Ravishing of Lol Stein), in which the feeling of love is shown as ambivalent, connected − on the one hand − with ecstasy, admiration and exaltation, and on the other – with suffering, loneliness, pain and absence. Considered from the Lacanist perspective, the text allows us to see the originality of Duras’s prose, which involves capturing the unspeakable, the thing that escapes rational analysis and conventional writing technique: the subconscious. The author refers to it both in the thematic and stylistic layers, thus emphasizing the fragmentary nature of the language that implicitly transmits the eroticism of a woman condemned to silence.
