Abstracts

EN

This article is devoted to the book The Double Confidence (2000) by the Belgian novelist Françoise Mallet‐Joris, which is the fusion of the biography of Marceline Debordes‐Valmore and the autobiography of the author. The writing of the biography triggers the author's memory and awakens her memories (mainly her difficult relationship with her mother, Suzanne Lilar): she allows her to observe herself, to analyze herself, to ask questions she avoid, to re‐emerge repressed. I study the elements that link the work of Mallet‐Joris to "narrations of filiation", I examine the binary structure, the singularity of discursive strategies, as well as the therapeutic function of this self‐biographic project.
