L’expérience du torse ; suivi de L’expérience du texte
In my master in research-creation, the stereotype issue is addressed by emphasis on the creative potential of doxic figures and by exposing their relationship with the litterariness and the power (in a Foucauldian manner) with a creation and an essay: The Torso Experiment is a short novel (from wich the end has been excluded) describing the first days of the "Magnotta Case" while playing with the traditional romantic novelistic conventions; on the other hand, The Text Experiment essay shows how the use of the stereotype heartens and creates a stable world in Jean Echenoz's novel, I'm Gone, although its distortion beguiles the reader's expectations by admonishing long-established concepts and suggesting a poetic transcendence. Both my creation and essay imply that language is power, thus act on power itself.
