Abstract

The article discusses affinities and oblique relationships between Henri Meschonnic and Samuel Beckett, based on an analytical journey through texts from the collection Têtes-mortes (1972), representative of late Beckettian fiction. To do so, it mobilizes Meschonnic's discussions around the issues of rhythm, significance, the subject and the “modernity of modernity” and points out dialogues and contrasts between readings of Beckett's works by Meschonnic, Wolfgang Iser and Theodor Adorno.
