Remédiation et interaction dans le milieu textuel
A literary text is a milieu in which different intermedial relations can occur. Borrowing on Bolter and Grusin’s notion of remediation and displacing the latter from digital technologies to literature, this article defines three strategies by which a novel can convoke modes that are conventionally related to other forms of mediation. The breaking points and the blanks that result from these intermedial strategies are then discussed from a reader-response perspective, to substantiate the hypothesis that a strong intermedial dynamic in a novel enhances the reader’s activity. Océan mer serves as a ground for an analysis that demonstrates the dynamism of the interactions that characterize such an intermedial object.
