The Anecdote, or Microfiction and Its Relation to the Reader
There are many discrete episodes in The Tale of Genji—anecdotes, micro stories, outgrowths of fiction—that are not integrated into the overall plot, and which introduce characters who do not reappear later in the novel. These features are considered through the perpectives of reading and Wolfgang Is...

Il s’agit de décrire la multiplicité des épisodes isolés dans le Roman du Genji, anecdotes, micro-récits ou excroissances fictionnelles, mettant en scène des personnages, qui ne réapparaissent pas ailleurs dans le roman, et ne s’intégrant pas dans la trame romanesque. Ce trait est ici envisagé du point de vue de la lecture et de la notion de « place vide » (Leerstellen) proposée Wolfgang Iser. Si une lecture savante poursuit l’intégration des micro-récits, une lecture naïve pourra les mettre à profit pour retrouver son autonomie et jouir d’une lecture fragmentaire et centrifuge. |
