Description
Summary:Through a precise study of the letters that Jacques Rivière and Alain-Fournier wrote to each other between 1904 and 1909, when they were young men, the article uncovers a form of existential event in the very act of reading. It analyzes the progressive separation between two literary and spiritual personalities around a practice they first shared. It inscribes reading in a configuration of vocation, and in the form of destiny: living, reading, being read, are but different aspects of one single tension towards the future.
