Rewriting, Literariness, Literary History by Didier Coste

“…La réécriture est aussi ancienne que le système littéraire lui-même, elle a permis de cristalliser ce qui a fini par recevoir le nom de littérature au milieu du XVIIIe siècle, car elle était essentielle à la construction d’une tradition créatrice (en tant que mimesis de grandes actions artistiques) et d’une épistémologie critique partagée. S’il peut sembler paradoxal que la « littérature » émerge précisément au moment où l’esthétique romantique de l’originalité prétend remplacer l’esthétique classique de l’imitation, ce paradoxe doit toutefois être exploré en fonction de la tentative d’autonomiser l’esthétique, du statut social à la fois radieux et précaire du discours littéraire, et de la croissante division du travail de production de savoir et de valeur discursive.Il faudrait alors envisager le « long romantisme » (jusqu’aux avant-gardes au moins) sous l’angle du déni de réécriture. …”
