Reading and Meaning in Pascal Quignard’s work Pascal Quignard makes reading the very core of his work, drawing on his erudition to feed its content. It is not, however, to be viewed as a scholarly process to legitimize the construction of a discourse. For he is always wary of any construction of meaning and consistently exposes the illusion of Logos and reason. On the contrary, his work is aimed at deconstructing their hold on them. In La Suite des chats et des ânes, Quignard recounts the lecture given to Mireille Calle-Gruber’s students at the Sorbonne, in which he comments on the writing of his novel Les Solidarités mystérieuses. What we mean to do is follow this lesson in order to trace the meaning of the readings at work in writing.
