Abstract

This paper analyzes Maurice Blanchot’s Thomas l’obscur, considering the configuration of Blanchotian the other night, the one that presents the lack and the absence of the word in which it has its most aggressive, its most excessive and its most absurdly wonderful. In this paper, I have as the theoretical interlocutor the writings on literature by the author himself. The interest in this dialog consists in presenting the passionate fusion of the author’s fictional and theoretical writings. In Maurice Blanchot, there are not any isolation points or divergence between his two writing poles, but rather a complement, a convergence, between what we call fiction and theory.
