Omniprésence De Samuel Beckett Dans L'œuvre de Raymond Cousse / Présence de Raymond Cousse Dans œeuvre de Samuel Beckett?

View through CrossRef

A novelist and playwright of little renown, Raymond Cousse is mostly known for his play His encounter with Beckett's work and then with Beckett himself was the electric shock that pushed this autodidact into writing. Our paper tends to a double aim : we shall fIrst examine how deeply Beckett has marked Cousse's work and existence, through the study of his writings – including non published documents such as abstracts from his diary, the correspondence between the two authors and several manuscripts by Cousse. We will then proceed with the following question: is the Irish writer's all-pervasive presence in Cousse's work reciprocated, in Samuel Beckett's writings, with echoes from Cousse's own novels and plays ?
