6. Le Manifeste littéraire revisité. Explorations fictionnelles du genre dans la littérature francaise contemporaine
Sammanfattning : This study shows how features of the literary manifesto, a genre associated with the avant-garde period, are integrated in three contemporary French novels: Le Caoutchouc décidément (1992) by Éric Chevillard, Tout-monde (1993) by Édouard Glissant and Le Post-exotisme en dix leçons, leçon onze (1998) by Antoine Volodine.
