The intimate links between the page and the skin have been explored by writers for centuries. Yet despite the current interest in the surface of the body, the relationship between touching and writing remains neglected. Drawing on new debates in deconstruction and psychoanalysis, this book provides an original and timely intervention in the field. Exploring insights from Jacques Derrida and Hélèn Cixous, and through close readings of work by writers such as Anne Carson, Siri Hustvedt and Michael Ondaatje, Tactile Poetics investigates the law of tact that always interrupts contact, and examines the different ways that literary texts work to 'touch' their readers.

Une étude de l'imprégnation de l'Extrême-Orient dans la littérature française d'après-guerre à travers l'analyse comparative de l'esthétique de trois écrivains. L'ouvrage aborde l'imaginaire sino-japonais, la place du corps dans la création, l'impact des arts martiaux dans les représentations associées à l'Asie et la spécificité des oeuvres poétiques contemporaines marquées par cette culture. ©Electre 2016
