| Resumo: | This article puts forth an analysis of three of the most ubiquitous archival tropes found in Annie Ernaux’s œuvre, i.e., the use of photographic ekphrasis; the framing of narrative and historical time through literary montage; a self-reflexive writing that allows the reader figurative entrance into the writer’s work space. Our goal is to show how the author esthetically elaborates, through the use of the aforementioned tropes, her autosociobiographical project, by situating the historical timeline of a single person’s life into the more extensive Historic time. Examples to illustrate our point have been taken from La place, Les années, Une Femme, Journal du dehors, and L’événement, as a way to show a pattern in Ernaux’s writing. |
