Abstracts

EN

The paper analyses the works of French author Richard Millet and the way he thematises censorship from his early works up to the controversial eulogy of Anders Breivik in 2012. The author’s claim of being a victim of censorship is approached as a symptom of a larger problem that is conspiratorial thinking. The study shows that Millet’s conspiratorial ideation evolves progressively and becomes ever more pronounced and radicalized in his writings. Though censorship, in his mind, takes up different forms – from political correctness to indirect means of silencing – it underlies the author’s conspiratorial mind-set on every stage and is a part of his self-image.
