Abstract

This paper deals with the silences of dialogue in Moderato Cantabile by Marguerite Duras. The starting hypothesis is that silence is a phenomenon of constructive and significant absence which could justify a choice of writing. The concrete question which we would like to analyze is how fictional dialogue creates meaningful silences.
