The Book Peddler's Autopsy Through Literature

Abstract

Wé approach the book peddler through fiction. How is he presented in the master works The Book Peddlers’ Ballad of the Pont-Neuf and Buchmendel by Stefan Zweig? Which patterns are exhibited ? Do they correspond to historical reality? Through these questions we decipher the relationships between reality and fiction, text and history, memory and myth. We try to enrich Proust and Ricoeur’s concepts, investigating the literary character. Is it an essential pillar or is it possible to cancel it as would think the representatives of the New Novel? Our answers and discussion are a contribution to narratology and textology.
