1 Introduction

1. Robbe-Grillet, For a New (henceforth FNN), 28–9. The name nou- veau roman was coined by Émile Henriot in a article (May 22, 1957), which focused on Robbe-Grillet’s La Jalousie and Nathalie Sarraute’s Tropismes. Robbe-Grillet was the principal author who fervently embraced and theorized this notion; others, particularly Michel Butor and , felt uneasy about the term. 2. References to this notion include Kibédi Varga (1988: 30, 38, 1990), Korthals Altes (1992: 3, 7), Prince (1994: 988), Gratton (1997: 248), Davis and Fallaize (2000: 13–15), Viart and Vercier (2005: 353), Biermann and Coenen- Mennemeier (2006: 388), Godard (2006: 413–35), Kemp (2010). 3. Important contributions include MacIntyre (1984), Ricoeur (1984, 1985, 1988), Taylor (1989), Freeman (1993), Cavarero (2000), Brockmeier and Carbaugh (2001), Kearney (2002), Butler (2005), Allen (2008), Goldie (2012). 4. On the narrative turn, see Norris (1985: 21), Hinchman and Hinchman (2001), Punday (2003), Kreiswirth (2005), Fludernik (2006: 46–8), Herman (2007: 4–5), Alber and Fludernik (2010) and Hyvärinen (2010, 2013), who dis- cusses the broader cultural narrative turn (for example in media and politics). 5. On the concept of metanarrativity, see Neumann and Nünning (2012). For a narratological discussion of ‘narrative as theme’ in French fiction, with a focus on fictional views on the adequacy of narrative for truth, see Prince (1992). 6. On metamodernism, see Vermeulen and Akker (2010). As McHale (2013) observes, looking back, the modernism/postmodernism dichotomy is very US-centred and problematic in both European and global contexts. This is particularly true from the perspective of . 7. For example, one of the ‘fathers’ of narratology, Genette (1976: 1), demands, as late as 1969, that it is necessary to pay greater attention to the ‘prob- lematic aspect of the narrative act’. On the poststructuralist suspicion of narrative, see for example Kellner (1987), Davis (2004: 103–28), Klepper (2013: 1–2). 8. It is still largely the case that, as Fludernik (2003: 331) notes, ‘there has been comparatively little interest on a theoretical level in the history of narrative forms and functions’. 9. Some scholars have also seen a rehabilitation of narrative in German and Anglophone of the 1980s; see Rimmon-Kenan (1996), Förster (1999: 3), Hörisch (2004). However, to my knowledge none of these ‘returns’ has been properly related to the narrative turn in critical discourse. 10. The ongoing scholarly interest in Robbe-Grillet’s work and the need to reevaluate his literary-historical significance is testified to by Allemand and Milat (2010), for example. Richardson (2012: 22) describes Robbe-Grillet’s

231 232 Notes

work as part of an important antimimetic narrative tradition that ‘has not yet been properly accounted for by narrative theory’. 11. Tournier’s profound effect on international literary life is evidenced, for example, by his nomination, in 2007, as the only French author who was a contender for the Man Booker International Prize, which acknowledges a writer’s overall contribution to fiction on the world stage. 12. Dans le labyrinthe has been regarded as a ‘watershed novel’ between modern- ism and postmodernism – see for example McHale (1987: 13–15, 1992: 51), Smyth (1991: 66, 68) – whereas Le Roi des Aulnes has been interpreted vari- ously as a traditional realist novel or a postmodernist novel. 13. For an overview of this debate, see Clark (2004: 86–105). 14. Important landmarks in this development were MacIntyre’s After Virtue (1981), Ricoeur’s three-volume Time and Narrative (Temps et récit, 1983–85) and Bruner’s work in narrative psychology (1986, 1987, 1990). 15. See for example Ricoeur (1984), Polkinghorne (1988), Bruner (1990: 43), Freeman (1993, 2010), Widdershoven (1993), Cavarero (2000), Crossley (2000: 11), Ritivoi (2006), Phelan (2007), Boyd (2009), Brockmeier (2013) and Schiff (2013). 16. See for example Barthes (1982: 94), Cohn (1999: 12), Kafalenos (2006) and Ryan (2007: 29). For a discussion on the primacy of the notion of event in the narratological conception of narrative, see Rabinowitz (2005: 184). 17. On the distinction between ontological and epistemological/cognitive approaches, see Ritivoi (2005: 231) and Hinchman and Hinchman (2001: xix–xx). Thinkers who consider narrativity to be primarily an ontological concept include Taylor, Ricoeur, MacIntyre and Carr, whereas the episte- mological-cognitivist position is represented for example by White, Mink, Dennett, Herman and other cognitivists who see narrative as a ‘basic human strategy for coming to terms with time, process and change’ (Herman et al. 2005: ix). 18. Both these aspects are acknowledged by a range of thinkers including Cavarero (2000), Benhabib (2002), Bamberg and Andrews (2004), Butler (2005), Allen (2008) and Nünning (2009). 19. The notion of narrative identity is more widespread (for an insightful over- view of approaches that emphasize the social aspect of narrative identity, see Klepper 2013), but the notion of narrative subjectivity has also been used across disciplines (for example Ricoeur 1992, Rasmussen 1996, Worthington 1996, Benhabib 1999 and Clark 2010). 20. The differences and similarities between natural and unnatural narratology are informatively summarized in Fludernik (2012) and Alber et al. (2012). 21. ‘Unnatural narratology’ emphasizes the ‘playful and outrageous’ character of antimimetic texts (Richardson 2012: 25), but pays little attention to the epistemological, ontological or ethical reasons for the rejection of conven- tional narrativity and for privileging fragmentary, incoherent or otherwise ‘unnatural’ narrative structures. 22. For further discussion of ‘narrative hermeneutics’, see Brockmeier (2013), Meretoja (2013, 2014) and Brockmeier and Meretoja (forthcoming). 23. On the ‘move from found to constructed orders’, see Taylor (1989: 156, 161). Notes 233

24. As MacIntyre (1984: 121–30) reminds us, storytelling functioned as a major means of socialization in premodern societies. See also Taylor (1989: 178–9) and Ehrich-Haefeli (1998: 811–43). 25. On this novelistic tradition of ‘an artwork mirroring itself as it mirrors real- ity’, flaunting ‘its own condition of artifice’ as it explores ‘ways of going beyond words to the experiences words seek to indicate’, see Alter (1975: ix–xi). 26. According to Rousso (1991), the age of ‘repression’ lasted until 1971; in the light of this periodization, Tournier was ahead of his time in dealing with the issue of collaboration in Le Roi des Aulnes (1970). 27. On their ‘manifesto’ character, see Yanoshevsky (2006: 249, 258). 28. For an overview of this ethos, see Scholes (1980). Heidegger was one of the key thinkers whose criticism of subjectivity and representation influenced the postwar crisis of humanism (see Menke 2003; Vattimo 1988: 46; Renaut 1999: xvii). The Frankfurt School was also one of the important influences of the intellectual leaders of May 1968. 29. On critical hermeneutics, see Thompson (1995), Kögler (1999), Pappas and Cowling (2003), Vasterling (2003), Ritivoi (2006), Mootz and Taylor (2011) and Roberge (2011). 30. On the need to historicize narrative studies, see for example Fludernik (2003) and Nünning (2004, 2009). Philosophical approaches to narrative (for example Sartwell 2000; Carroll 2001; Currie 2010; Nussbaum 2010; Goldie 2012) tend to privilege philosophy at the expense of attentiveness to what is specific to literature. 31. Classics of this tradition include Auerbach (1946), Lukács (1971), Goldmann (1975), Bakhtin (1981, 1984b), Jameson (1991) and Barthes (1984: 14), who acknowledges that every choice of a literary form entails a ‘general choice of ethos’. Other studies that have been particularly important for my work include Davis (1988, 2000), Korthals Altes (1992), Saariluoma (1994, 1996, 2004) and Worthington (1996). 32. Twentieth-century hermeneutics has been a source of growing interest in the field of literary studies – see for example Clark (2006), Ritivoi (2006), Felski (2008), Davis (2010), Mootz and Taylor (2011) and Schaeffer (2013) – but this tradition is still subject to abundant misunderstandings. In in particular a strong suspicion has prevailed towards hermeneutics, since many poststructuralists have conceived of it as a mode of thought directed at the decipherment of ‘hidden meanings’; see for example Foucault (1994: 373) and Badiou (2004: 43). On the French interpretation of hermeneutics, see Davis (2010: 32–3, 50, 63, 173). 33. The philosophical analyses of Robbe-Grillet’s work have tended to focus on his theoretical writings; for example Heath (1972) and Britton (1992). To my knowledge there are no sustained analyses of the different philosophical aspects of the ’s rejection of storytelling. 34. Davis (1995b) delighted in the new, more strenuous quality of Tournier stud- ies, and a decade later Posthumus (2006) wrote about ‘un renouvellement de la critique tourniérienne’, but concluded that it remains for criticism to situate Tournier’s oeuvre in literary history. 234 Notes

2 Textual Labyrinths: Robbe-Grillet’s Antinarrative Aesthetics

1. The former line of interpretation was initiated by Genette’s Vertige fi xé (1962) and continues in contemporary ‘unnatural narratology’; the latter was launched by Morrissette’s Les romans de Robbe-Grillet (1963) and remains influential in contemporary Robbe-Grillet scholarship (for example several contributions in Allemand & Milat 2010). 2. Original French quotations are given from primary sources, and from other French works only when relevant to the discussion. Translations without references to existing translations are my own. 3. For a detailed account of the correspondences between the elements in the narrator’s room and in the soldier’s story, see Morrissette (1971: 153–84) and Leki (1983: 72–9). 4. For Carrabino (1974: 121), for example, ‘the main narrator is a doctor who creates the novel’; Lethcoe (1965: 499) takes the narrator to be lying on the bed and dying; Sturrock (1969: 232) suggests that the novel can be read as an ‘electro-encephalograph of a highly active brain’. 5. On the connection between ontological instability and epistemological uncertainty, see McHale (1987: 11) and Saariluoma (1994: 24). 6. As Richardson (2002: 48–9) points out, the ‘contradictory’ temporality of Robbe-Grillet’s novels ‘seriously vitiates the very notion of story’ and other Genettean concepts such as ‘frequency’. On how Robbe-Grillet radicalizes the redefinition of narrative temporality in his later work, see Heise (1997: 116–46). 7. Ryan (2001: 124) argues that the novel ‘actively inhibits’ immersion, but, as Mäkelä (2012: 145) observes, such a reading simplifies the matter. 8. For a discussion of how Robbe-Grillet questions this dichotomy, see also Richardson (2002: 53, 2012: 24). 9. For example, Topologie d’une cité fantôme is divided into five ‘spaces’ (TCF: 7–8) instead of ‘chapters’. 10. See for example Ricardou (1971: 32, 262–4), Carroll (1982: 10–16) and Babcock (1997: 4, 23–5). Often this shift is drawn too sharply and situated too late. If we consider how central the notion of écriture was for both Robbe- Grillet and Barthes, Carroll (1982: 12) is hardly justified in claiming, ‘The problem of language is never posed by Barthes or Robbe-Grillet, nor, it would be safe to say, by any other critics of the New Novel at this time.’ 11. From the late 1970s, however, Simon and Robbe-Grillet began to distance themselves from Ricardou’s views (see Oppenheim 1986: 106; V: 262). Sarraute, too, spoke about writing as the ‘play of language’, but she never abandoned the idea that literature gives expression to pre-linguistic reality, although she sees language as the medium in which the micromovements of consciousness (‘tropisms’) properly come to being (Ricardou & Rossum- Guyon 1972b: 50–51, 57; Sarraute 1987: 197–9). 12. Robbe-Grillet names Dans le labyrinthe as the novel that marks a turn- ing point in his oeuvre in that it first manifests ‘la fonction créatrice de l’écriture’ (V: 128). 13. See Bürger’s (1992: 44) analysis of form as ‘the category of artistic modernism par excellence’. 14. On the tradition of pure art, see Poggioli (1968: 199–206) and Léonard (1974: 90–100, 122–31). Notes 235

15. On the importance of Flaubert’s (1910: 70) ‘art pur’ for Robbe-Grillet, see FNN: 45, GIM: 152, 154, MQR: 216, 219.

3 The Epistemology and Ontology of Antinarrativism

1. See for example Sartwell’s (2000) playful plea for emancipation from the oppressive chains of narrative, meaning and language. 2. Britton (1992: 25–47) is one of the few scholars who have properly acknowl- edged Robbe-Grillet’s debt to Sartre, but she focuses on the question of com- mitment in Pour un nouveau roman and does not discuss Sartre’s influence on Robbe-Grillet’s novels. 3. Britton (1992: 26) argues that in his 1957 essay, Robbe-Grillet moves from rejecting ‘meaning as such’ to rejecting ‘pre-existing meanings’. Nevertheless, a general suspicion of meaning remains an important aspect of his think- ing. For example, in his 1958 essay he asserts that all metaphors and ‘all analogies are just as dangerous’, and posits a total ‘absence of signification’, ‘a void’, as the starting point of the nouveau roman (FNN: 57–9; see also Ricardou 1976: 36). 4. Recently, increasing attention has been paid to the way in which ‘every epistemology carries ontological assumptions’, as Grosz (2007) puts it. 5. See Bernal (1964: 9–19), Sturrock (1969: 28–9), Morrissette (1971: 41), Carrabino (1974), Allemand (1997: 17–18), Dugast-Portes (2001: 126–7). Heath (1972: 86–110) convincingly criticizes such phenomenological read- ings and shows how Robbe-Grillet’s theoretical views are at odds with phe- nomenology. I think that Heath is generally right, but paints a somewhat simplified view of Robbe-Grillet’s ‘antiphenomenological’ theory of percep- tion, as expressed in ‘Nature, Humanism, Tragedy’ (1958), without consider- ing his other, more phenomenologically minded essays or the relation of his novels to phenomenology. Although Robbe-Grillet explicitly argues that the world ‘refuses to conform to our habits of apprehension and to our clas- sification’ (FNN: 21), Heath (1972: 95–6) claims that Robbe-Grillet’s ‘terms of security’ include ‘classification, language, scientific reason’. 6. On Merleau-Ponty’s spatial conception of perspective and on his phenom- enology as ‘a movement from the personal subject to an impersonal and anonymous one’, see Descombes (1980: 63, 70–71). 7. For recent accounts of the intertwinement of memory, identity and narrativ- ity, see for example Freeman (2010, 2013), Goldie (2012), Brockmeier (2013) and Klepper (2013). 8. DL: 35, L: 29 and more than a dozen times after that. 9. In the English translations the distinction between Sein and das Seiende is often made by indicating Sein with the use of a capital B (Being vs being), although the context, too, usually makes that clear. 10. See Gadamer’s (1984: 59–60, 65) analysis of how phenomenology went through a hermeneutic turn in Heidegger’s philosophy: Husserl’s motto ‘back to the things themselves’ still indicates an attempt to reach beyond interpre- tation, whereas for Heidegger interpretation became the most fundamental phenomenon. Husserl and Merleau-Ponty themselves acknowledge that phe- nomenology shares with positivism a striving towards the immediate given- ness of phenomena: Husserl (1983: 39) called himself the only ‘true positivist’ 236 Notes

who took things as they are immediately given, and Merleau-Ponty (1962: xvii) characterizes his own philosophy as ‘phenomenological positivism’. 11. Carrabino (1974: 43), for example, concludes that ‘[t]he New Novel deals [...] with the field of psychical phenomenology, the naïve representation of psychic experiences’. See also Sturrock (1969: 26).

4 Antinarrativist Ethics in the Postwar Context

1. On how Robbe-Grillet’s texts both subvert and reproduce oppressive, stereo- typical representations of women, see Suleiman (1977) and Ramsay (1992). 2. A similar ethos underlies Derrida’s view of the violent character of language and is at odds with the hermeneutic conception according to which mean- ings are always in the process of being formed, and all understanding is ‘always-understanding-differently’, whereby language has potential not only for violence but also for ethical encounters (Gadamer 1993a: 8). 3. Cf. Cloonan (1999: 16, 46); Robbe-Grillet’s autobiographical trilogy more obviously invites contextualizing readings (see Ramsay 1996, 2001). 4. On reification and its conceptual history, see also Heidegger (1967: 72, 497, §10, 83), Lukács (1971: 87, 210), Habermas (1984: 366–86), Jaeggi (2005), Honneth (2008). 5. On how Weber’s and Foucault’s thought gives expression to the essential ambiguity of modernity, see Owen (1994). Weber (2001: 124) acknowledges somewhat better than the early Foucault that human beings are not merely products of sociocultural systems but also their producers, although he does not mince his words any more than Foucault in describing the modern individual as a ‘nullity’ who imagines to have ‘attained a level of civilization never before achieved’. 6. On the concept of technical responsibility, see Bauman (1989: 100). 7. See Goldmann (1975: 145) and Adorno’s (2005: 199–200) analysis of ‘reified consciousness’. 8. On this shift, see Harris (1985: 69), Green (1986: 8, 273–4) and Brosman (1999: 137, 179). 9. To my knowledge only Vidal (1975: 88–91) briefly discusses the reference to ‘Henri Martin’ in Dans le labyrinthe. 10. As Brosman (1999: 148) notes, novels on the First World War make ‘a martyr and a hero of the little man, lost in a meaningless battle’. 11. Although the case of Henri Martin gave rise to a relatively widespread discus- sion in the France of the 1950s, he was soon forgotten, and Sartre’s L’Affaire Henri Martin remains one of his least-known works (Cohen-Solal 1988: 326). 12. The idea that everyone has the potential to be the creator and artist of their own life harks back even further, to Early German Romanticism (see Schleiermacher 1843–64: 253). 13. On such antagonistic pathos in the avant-garde tradition, see Poggioli (1968: 27–39, 61–2) and Calinescu (1987: 117). 14. On the decentred labyrinth as the ‘metaphor and structural paradigm of much of postmodern experimental fiction’, see Hoffmann (1996: 117). 15. See Butler’s (2004: 21–38) discussion of Wittig, who is frequently linked to the nouveau roman. Notes 237

5 Reengagement with the World: Towards an Aesthetics of Dialogical Intertextuality

1. See Kristeva (1969), Sollers (1970: 76) and the collective manifesto of the Tel Quel theoreticians (Théorie d’ensemble, Paris: Seuil, 1968). 2. For similar appraisals, see Poulet (1975: 93–101) and Shattuck (1984: 218). 3. Thereby Robbe-Grillet no longer so much fights against narratives as plays with their ‘generative power’, as Jefferson (1980: 50–51) puts it. 4. For example, the Oxford English Dictionary defines myth as a ‘traditional story, typically involving supernatural beings or forces or creatures, which embodies and provides an explanation, aetiology, or justification for some- thing such as the early history of a society, a religious belief or ritual, or a natural phenomenon’. Whereas in the premodern mythological life-world myths recounted collectively shared sacred stories, this is obviously not the case with the secularized myths of modern literature. See for example Watt (1996), Bell (1997), Schilbrack (2002), Segal (2007). 5. On the notion of ‘counter-narrative’, see Bamberg and Andrews (2004). 6. On Tournier’s Vendredi as a rewriting of Defoe’s , see for example Petit (1991: 1–23), Saariluoma (1994: 38–66), Vray (1997: 290–331). Tournier’s other novels, too, include a wealth of intertextual allusions, charted by previous criticism. 7. Korthals Altes (1992: 151–2) is sceptical of Tournier’s view that myth gives form to our aspirations, because the aspirations of his characters are so strange that they are unlikely to be widely shared by readers. To me it seems, however, that Tournier is not so much making the point that these particular aspirations are shared but, rather, drawing attention to the way in which cultural narratives mediate our relation to the world, that is, to this very structure of mediation. 8. On the relation between Bakhtinian dialogism and Kristeva’s intertextuality, see for example Lesic-Thomas (2005). 9. The word ‘dialogue’ has pride of place in his ‘dictionary’ of the 300 words that are most important for his thinking (PL: 60). 10. On Tournier’s intertextuality, see for example Worton (1982), Korthals Altes (1992: 162–75), Vray (1997) and Genette (1997: 213), who maintains that in Tournier’s case all definitions and subcategories of intertextuality ‘are bound to be more or less ill-fitting’. 11. This observation has been crucial to the theory of metafiction ever since Waugh (1984: 113, 145–9). 12. On the careful documentation on which the depiction of Nazi Germany in Le Roi des Aulnes is based, see for example Klettke (1991: 287) and Eickelkamp (2008). 13. Examples of French literature include Littell’s Les Bienveillantes (2007, The Kindly Ones) and Sansal’s Le Village de l’Allemand (2008, An Unfi nished Business). For a discussion of further examples, see Hutton (2011) and Silverman (2013). 14. ‘Realist’ interpretations have dominated Tournier scholarship to the present. See for example Maclean’s (2011: 188) claim that ‘Tournier’s narratives are traditional in form, growing out of nineteenth-century realism and naturalism’. 238 Notes

15. See Boulomié’s (1992: 454) suggestion that the self-reflexive features of Tournier’s novels bear witness to his awareness of the formal experimenta- tions of the nouveau roman. 16. As Korthal Altes (1992: 158) observes, the ‘ethos’ of the narrator is unstable in relation to the protagonist. 17. On this authoritative aspect of Tournier, see Korthals Altes (1992: 149–52, 173–4) and Davis (1991: 194–4, 1995a: 159). 18. On Tournier as a reader in Le Vent Paraclet, see Davis (1995a: 164–9). 19. Tournier explicitly keeps a distance from the nouveau roman’s focus on form (for example Klettke 1991: 289), but most often he simply contents himself with asserting something like ‘Me, I’m not part of all that’ (Daly 1985: 412). 20. Tournier recalls Mallarmé’s famous comment that poetry ‘is made with words, not with ideas’, and then asserts, in a Sartrean spirit, that prose, in contrast, ‘begins with an idea’ (MoI: 86–7). He made the same distinction when he spoke to me about the way in which a novelist ‘interprets social phenomena of his own time’ by rewriting cultural narratives (Meretoja 2003). 21. In a letter, dated 4 January 1981, cited by Scheiner (1990: 19). Tournier’s par- ents were Germanists and the family spent the summers in Germany; after the war, Tournier went to study philosophy in Tübingen. On his relation to German culture, see BA. 22. When I asked Tournier whether he feels an affinity with the hermeneutic tradition, he answered: ‘Yes. I have developed my thinking in a dialogue with the tradition of Early German Romanticism’ (Meretoja 2003). 23. On the Romantic idea of literature as a form of knowledge and as a creative synthetic activity, see for example Schlegel (1982), Schelling (1989: 28). 24. For further discussion of this aesthetic tradition and of the intertwine- ment of aesthetics with different conceptions of truth, see Bowie (1997), Eaglestone (2004b). 25. See Ricoeur (1984, 1991b: 137–155). This is also true of a whole tradition of understanding mimesis more widely than in terms of simple mirroring, which arguably goes back all the way to Aristotle (see Halliwell 2002). 26. On literature opening up new possibilities of being, see also Heidegger (1967: 205), Ricoeur (1991a: 66). The hermeneutic approach to the reading process provides an alternative to psychological and cognitive approaches that focus solely on the reader’s identification with literary characters, and it fits well with contemporary efforts to show how awareness of fictionality is no impediment to but a central part of our engagement with literary texts (see Polvinen 2012). 27. In the original translation, ‘aulnes’ is translated as ‘elms’ but should be ‘alders’. ‘Le Roi des Aulnes’ literally means ‘King of the alders’.

6 Narrative Hermeneutics and Dialogical Subjectivity

1. On interpretation as the most primordial phenomenon in the hermeneutic tradition, see Gadamer (1984: 58–65, 1993a: 339, 1997: 90–92) and Ricoeur (1988: 62). For further discussion, see Meretoja (2014). 2. On the questionability of the opposition between living and telling about it, see Freeman (1993: 108–11) and Kerby (1991: 42–3). Notes 239

3. Moreover, that x is constitutive of y does not entail that y is constituted by x alone; and Ricoeur never suggests that we would be constituted by nothing but narratives. 4. Giddens (1993: 86, 154) and Habermas (1984: 109–10) have argued that the social sciences are characterized, in comparison to the natural sciences, by a ‘double hermeneutic’, as they deal with a ‘pre-interpreted world’. 5. On the selective character of narrating and remembering, see Stierle (2006: 79), Derrida and Stiegler (2002: 63–4). 6. See Koselleck’s (2004: 262) account of how ‘experiences overlap and mutu- ally impregnate one another’ and new hopes, disappointments and expecta- tions have a retrospective effect on past experiences. 7. The most famous of these new autobiographies are Sarraute’s Enfance (1983), Duras’s L’Amant (1984) and Robbe-Grillet’s Romanesques (Le Miroir qui revient [1984], Angélique, ou l’enchantement [1987] and Les Derniers jours de Corinthe [1994]). 8. For a critical discussion of such a ‘binarism of materiality and culture’, rein- troduced to critical theory by ‘new materialism’, see Ahmed (2008: 35). 9. On contestability as essential to narratives, see Phelan (2008). 10. On the interpenetration of past, present and future in mythical thinking, see Cassirer (1964: 111). 11. On the way in which Tournier deals with the bible as mythical material, see Davis (1988: 193), Klettke (1991: 280), Saariluoma (1994: 61–2). I will deal with the modern aspects of Tiffauges’s and the Nazis’ conception of (making) history in Chapter 7. 12. On Romantic irony, see Schelling (1989: 54, 81–2); on the connection between Le Roi des Aulnes and Romantic irony, see Korthals Altes (1992: 205). 13. See Korthals Altes (1992: 208). This pantheistic yearning is linked to the Spinozistic experience of joy. Tournier has expressed his admiration for Spinoza on several occasions, and has associated Vendredi in particular to Spinoza’s Ethics; see WS: 196, Koster (1995: 186), Anquentil and Armanet (2007). 14. For other similar interpretations, see Fischer (1977: 32–6), Wisman (1989), Fabijancic (2004: 81–2), Poirier (2005: 83–4). 15. Interpretations that acknowledge the ambivalence of the final scene include Davis (1988: 61–2), Klettke (1991: 218–20), Korthals Altes (1992) and Barchi Panek (2012: 43). 16. This Nietzschean conception underlies much of poststructuralist thinking; see for example Butler (1990: 142). 17. On Bakhtin’s close relation to hermeneutics, see Gardiner (1992: 99–140) and Pechey (2007: 10, 132–50). On his relevance for the contemporary dis- cussion on narrative identity, see Erdinast-Vulcan (2008). 18. Several scholars (for instance early Bakhtin, Cassirer, Berger and Luckmann) speak of the ‘dialectical’ relationship between the social systems and their individual interpreters, with roughly the same meaning as ‘dialogical’, but Bakhtin (1981: 278, 1986: 147) came to prefer ‘dialogue’ because it is less abstract than ‘dialectic’ and takes cognizance of the role of interacting sub- jects in the constitution of meaning. 19. As Tihanov (2002: 199, 205–6) argues, in Bakhtin’s book on Dostoevsky (the 1929 edition, cf. Bakthin 1984b) dialogism refers primarily to the human 240 Notes

capability to ‘internalize various alien voices (discourses) and to process them for the purpose of self-enrichment’, whereas in his later writings Bakhtin expands the notion of dialogue to denote human existence in gen- eral, laying less stress on the ‘tension-filled encounter’ with others (Bakhtin 1984b: 261, 287). 20. On the polyphony of Tournier’s novels, see Klettke (1991: 73), Korthals Altes (1992: 142–4), Vray (1997).

7 Ethics of Storytelling: History, Power, Otherness

1. The German reception of the novel generally focused on its depiction of Nazi Germany, whereas the French reception took this to be merely one aspect of the novel (Fischer 1977: 59). 2. For example Korthals Altes (1998: 102) maintains that the novel questions such ‘aesthetic appropriation of History’. See also Woodhull (1987: 79), Klettke (1991: 22–3), Petit (1991: 38), Tumanov (1999: 433). 3. For example according to Bouloumié (1995: 140), ‘Tournier interprets Nazism from a mystical perspective, which transcends history and gives the novel its mythic dimension’. See also Cloonan (1995: 145), Gascoigne (1996: 203, 2005), Poirier (2005: 76, 84). 4. This was Cloonan’s (1985: 51) conclusion, and since then, most critics have agreed. 5. On the ‘strong religious aspect of the “heroic” leadership notion’ underlying the ‘Hitler cult’, see also Kershaw (2001: 19, passim). 6. On rituals as a means of legitimation, see Berger and Luckmann (1987: 158–9, 165). 7. In suggesting that Le Roi des Aulnes is a strictly self-referential postmodern novel, a closed system of signs, Bürger (1988: 301–4) problematically identi- fies Tiffauges’s manner of seeing ‘reality as a sign’ with the position of the novel as a whole, and ignores how in fact the novel critically reflects on such a conception of language. 8. See Platten’s (1991: 293–8) analysis of Tiffauges as a Heidegger figure and on Heidegger as ‘the intellectual Ogre par excellence’. Heidegger is one of the philosophers (in addition to Fichte, Hegel, Husserl and Schelling) whom Tournier studied in Tübingen (VP: 86). 9. Price (1999: 155) suggests that ‘Tournier’s Ogre resembles Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit, structurally and thematically’. However, as Davis (1988: 200–1) notes, ‘the narrator is careful to attribute the Hegelian rhetoric to Tiffauges [...] rather than adopting it in his own voice’. On Tournier’s criti- cal attitude towards Hegelianism, see also BA: 47. 10. On how aesthetic considerations replace ethical ones in Tiffauges’s interpre- tative project, see Davis (1988: 204) and Korthals Altes (1992: 72). 11. See for example Gadamer (1997: 269, 299, 358–62). On the ethical and political potential of the hermeneutics of encountering the other, see Taylor (2002), Warnke (2002), Mootz and Taylor (2011). 12. As Tournier asserts, ‘an ogre loves children in order to eat them, not in order to make them happy’ (Meretoja 2003). Notes 241

13. For Watt, the most important modern mythical figures are Faust, Don Juan, Robinson Crusoe and Don Quixote; Tournier’s list is the same but also includes Tristan and Iseult (VV: 31). 14. On the violent aspect of Tiffauges’s ‘private lexicon’, see Horowitz (1997: 181). 15. On the connection to Levinas, see also Korthals Altes (1992: 216) and Platten (1999: 113). 16. In this connection, Levinas (1988, 177) refers to an ‘ideal of saintliness’ that, he claims, ‘is presupposed in all our value judgments’. The Levinasian notion of the face does not refer to a physical face, but Ephraïm’s face, nev- ertheless, gestures towards an ethical phenomenon similar to this Levinasian notion. On the face, see Levinas (1980: 198–214, 1996a: 17–18). 17. On Friday as a philosophical other, see Saariluoma (1994: 59) and Deleuze (1969). That no psychological or moral motivations are provided for Tiffauges’s sudden ability to relate to the other in a non-selfish way Korthals Altes (1992: 77) takes as an indication of the novel’s character as a fairytale (‘conte de fées’) rather than a psychological novel. To my mind, however, this also foregrounds the novel’s philosophical character. 18. Tournier’s views on the emancipatory significance of distance are close to those developed in the hermeneutic tradition; see note 27 below. 19. See Posthumus’s (2006) overview of recent Tournier scholarship from this perspective. 20. Some scholars seem to dismiss the critical distance between Tiffauges’s and Tournier’s ‘worldviews’. For example Bouloumié (1988: 242) argues that the phrase by Paul Claudel cited in the novel (‘all that happens is raised to the dignity of meaning. Everything is either symbol or parable’, EK: 140) shows Tournier’s orientation ‘towards revelation’, although Tournier convincingly denies this in the interview attached to the end of her book: ‘No, this cita- tion of Claudel applies only to Tiffauges and his mania to see signs every- where’ (Bouloumié 1988: 253). 21. For further discussion of this aspect of the novel, see Eickelkamp (2008: 215). 22. See also Platten’s (1999: 89–91) discussion of these monster myths. 23. For a discussion of the ‘ordinariness’ of the evil underlying the Holocaust, see also Arendt (1994), Bauman (1989) and Browning (1998). 24. Morris (1992: 42) maintains that from the mid-1970s a war was waged against orthodoxy ‘on two separate but related fronts: the Resistance was being hauled down from its pedestal and the Collaboration was being rehabilitated’; Viart and Vercier (2005) situate the ‘return of history’ to the French novel at the beginning of the 1980s. 25. On the dual notion of men themselves making history and of history fol- lowing a ‘secret plan’, a rational, ‘world-historical’ plot, see Lyotard (1991: 67–8), Koselleck (2004: 266) and Ricoeur (1988: 209–10). 26. See Gadamer’s (1997: 9–19) conceptual-historical analysis of the concept of Bildung. 27. On the hermeneutic view of the emancipatory significance of distance and the possible, see Ricoeur (1991a: 35–41, 300), Gadamer (1987: 137, 1993a: 204, 478, 1997: 444–8), Madison (1990: 95–6). For a recent, insightful discus- sion of narrative imagination, in a spirit that is close to the hermeneutic tradition, see Andrews 2014. 242 Notes

28. Monès (1975: 587); cf. Guichard (1989: 140–42). This is connected to Tiffauges’s fantasy of the ‘original’, hermaphrodite Adam who can make him- self pregnant and bear a child in both senses of ‘porter’ (EK: 22–3, RA: 25–6). 29. One passage indicates that Tiffauges violates the physical integrity of the boys by touching their skin with his lips: he first studies the ‘geography’ of their skin hair with a magnifying glass and then notes that ‘you can get to know it immediately – and how much more touchingly! – by brushing your lips rapidly over the skin’ (EK: 274, ‘on peut en avoir une connaissance immédiate – et combien plus touchante! – en passant rapidement les lèvres sur la peau’, RA: 340). This scene alludes to his childhood experience of pressing his lips on the wounded skin of another boy (EK: 20, RA: 23). There is no other evidence that Tiffauges’s physical contact with the boys would go beyond carrying them. 30. See Butler’s (1995: 22) analysis of the ‘melancholic formation of gender’. 31. Ricoeur (1992: 162) borrows the concept of ‘co-author’ from MacIntyre (1984: 212–13, 215), but does not share his belief that ‘stories are lived before they are told’ or his idea of life histories as ‘enacted dramatic narratives’. 32. PL: 15. On the male-centred perspective of Tournier’s discourse, see Lehtovuori (1995). 33. Tournier’s ‘personal mythology’ revolves around mythical characters (including androgynes, twins, male child-bearers), whom he ‘celebrates’ in Célébrations (2000); it includes the essays ‘Christophe, Saint Patron des ogres’ and ‘Porter un enfant’ (To carry a child). ‘Phorie’ is also included in Tournier’s ‘dictionary’ (PL: 149). 34. Atwood’s novel is the second book of the Canongate Myth series, compris- ing rewritings of classic tales. The series itself and its popularity attest to the significance of the literary phenomenon of storytelling as rewriting – or as dialogical intertextuality.

8 Conclusion

1. For her earlier development of this idea, see Nussbaum (1997). 2. On cultural playlisting and how storytelling is redefined in digital cultures, see Collins (2013). 3. Schaeffer (2013: 278), however, develops his account of fiction as ‘a virtual exemplification of a possible being-in-the-world’ explicitly in relation to philosophical hermeneutics. 4. One example of a ‘manifesto’ that sought to provide theoretical grounds for a return to overtly imaginative stories that use suspense plots and elements from detective novels and fantastic fiction is Moreau (1992). 5. Rothberg’s (2009) ‘multidirectional memory’ and Silverman’s (2013) ‘palimpsestic memory’ are recent, insightful proposals for how to rethink – particularly in contemporary multicultural and transnational contexts – literature’s contribution to creating such (Benjaminian) constellations. 6. For my discussion of Hustvedt, Grass and Franck, see Meretoja (2010, 2011, 2014). 7. See for example Hyvärinen et al. (2010), Goldie (2012) and Alber et al. (2013). It should be noted, however, that the Ricoeurean line of the narrative turn has always been critical of the notion of a single life story. Bibliography
