| Summary: | Published between 1973 and 1994, the novels of Jean Lods elaborate a rich, complex representation of the sea element. The imaginary sea they depict is a subtle combination of the North Sea and the Indian Ocean. Opposed geographically, these two liquid immensities do not generate a binary North/South dialectics, but they have a significant role in the partition and in the score of the fictional space. Among all of the ambivalences related to the sea, we focused on the one combining orality and the genesic power, which both triggers off this partition, sometimes this score, and allows us to understand better the significance of the representation of the sea not only in the stories, but also in the author’s writing. |
