Antoine Volodine and Christian Garcin both make a distinctive use of shamanism in fictional novels. By multiplying shaman characters and intertwining the shamanistic principles and the narrative, they develop a poetic of instability noticeable through various hybridization processes notably strengthened by the intrusion of supernatural elements. The analysis of three motives in which this game of unstable balance is particularly mirrored – identity, History and fiction – shall turn our attention to the role of shamanism as a vector of fictional dynamism.

This study will attempt to underline the various forms and functions Pascal Quignard assigns to reading in his different texts. To begin with, we will consider the subtle distinctions and links he creates between silence reading, loneliness reading and wandering reading. In this respect, particular attention will be paid to the relationships which are woven between reading and loneliness in texts by this solitary and unusual author. In the second part the focus will be on the evolution of the concept of reading for the author of L’Homme aux trois lettres (2020), who is anxious to develop an “oceanic” work. Indeed literature as “an elusive prey”, according to the author, is not about sense, but about the senses. Finally we shall conclude that in Pascal Quignard’s works, which defy any oversimplifie characterization or classification as far as genres are concerned, reading appears above all as a sensual experiment which leads the reader to some sort of condition close to disappearing and annihilation, in the symbolic or even the mystic sense one can give these terms.
