  • Overview

    This book's aim is to provide a critical bird's eye view of Blaise Cendrar's oeuvre, through readings which sample its interdisciplinary diversity, as indicated by the protean metaphor of the title. Colvile's six essays on the Franco-Swiss literal and literary vagabond have been organized under the headings of Cendrar's three main genres: poetry, fiction and journalism. The heterogeneous assemblage of verse and prose texts analyzed here with a variety of theoretical approaches, should convey and reflect Cendrars' eccentricity and intellectual independence, his highly experimental writing techniques often influenced by the plastic arts, as well as his posthumous avoidance of the Canon.
    Ce livre a pour but de donner un panorama sélectif de l'œuvre cendrarsienne, à travers des lectures qui en soulignent la diversité, d'où la métaphore protéenne du titre. Les six essais de Georgiana Colvile sur le bourlingueur franco-helvétique, s'organisent selon les trois genres principaux pratiqués par Cendrars: poésie, fiction et reportage. Le choix hétérogène des textes en vers et en prose analysés ici, ainsi que la variété des méthodes utilisées, devraient relever et refléter l'excentricité et l'indépendance intellectuelles de Cendrars, ses techniques expérimentales d'écrivain influencé par les arts plastiques et la persistance posthume de sa marginalité.
