How can we understand the omnipresence of the aphoristic style in an author who is anxious to distance himself from all moralistic stances and all moralizing intent? Studying Andre Gide’s work allows us to overcome this paradox: aphorism contributes to the renewal of genres and the construction of a literary authority.

Stephanie Bertrand est agregee de lettres modernes, docteur en langue et litterature francaises et maitre de conferences a l’universite de Lorraine. Specialiste de Gide, elle s’interesse plus largement a la langue et au style des ecrivains de la N.R.F., dans leurs enjeux ideologiques notamment.
