    Réécrire Don Juan au XXe siècle : entre hybridité et intermédialité, nouveaux modes d’exploitation d’un mythe
    (2016) Gournay, Aurélia
    The contemporary rewritings of Don Juan’s myth highlight several forms of hybridity and illustrate the stakes involved. The hybridation affects in the first place the sources of the myth since the authors appeal to numerous intertextual references. But the successive transpositions of the mythical scenario also lead to a generic hybridity. This intermediality has a reflexive dimension: it raises the question of the limits of language to talk about the myth and abolishes the frontier between fiction and critical speech.
