KUNTZ, Maria Cristina Vianna. The writing of the body in Marguerite Duras' The Vice-Consul. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2016, vol.38, n.61, pp. 87-99. ISSN 0101-3106.

The Vice-consul, published in 1966, is one of the most important Marguerite Duras' novel (1914-1996). Anne-Marie Stretter is the French Ambassador's wife and the Vice-consul will be her partner and the frustrated lover. Based on Blanchot's theories that consider the writing as a "body" act (L'espace littéraire) and on Barthes' theories that explain the text as "a body" itself (Plaisir du Texte), we will reflect about the author's confession that she would have had an almost "charnel" difficulty to write this book specifically. In the other hand, the Deleuze's concepts about the "body without organs" will help us to examine the protagonists' actions that are illustrated and realized by their bodies. We will also focus how the reader can perceive the author's "corporeal voice" in the novel.
