Abstract

This article conceptualizes the axis of the dossier “Displacement figures”. To do this, first of all, we situate the notion of displacement in relation to literature from the perspective of Roland Barthes. Specifically, we focus on the powers of action of literature: questioning, disturbing, shaking. Secondly, we delimit the notion of Barthesian figure, which is key to understand that, in the texts gathered in the dossier, the notion of displacement appears in a state of dissemination and variation. Finally, we present each of the articles that make up the set.
