Les confidences dans le roman autobiographique Nulle part dans la maison de mon père d’Assia DJEBAR

Abstract

En este artículo, intentaremos mostrar el papel de las confidencias en la construcción y el mantenimiento de las relaciones interpersonales de Assia DJEBAR en su novela autobiográfica "Nowhere en la casa de mi padre". Esta novela íntima revela la identidad de una escritora, ansiosa por la libertad y apegada a las tradiciones, que se encuentra dividida entre Argelia y Francia. Nuestro análisis se centra en un capítulo de la novela titulado El Pequeño Hermano, con el objetivo d’estudiar dos tipos de confidencias: provocó la confidencia y la confidencia confesional Veremos que estas confidencias son, al mismo tiempo, un regulador de las relaciones interpersonales y una fuente de distanciamiento.

In this article, we will try through the analysis of two types of confidences (a provoked confi-dence; a confessional confidence) to unveil their role in the construction and the maintenance of Assia Djebar’s interpersonal relationships in her novel Nowhere in my father’s house. This intimate novel traces the memories and moments that marked the author’s childhood and adolescence. Our analysis focuses more on the disappearance of her brother, a painful moment that changed the course of her life, as well as that of her family members, namely: her mother, her father and her younger sister. This tra-gic event is recounted in a chapter of the novel entitled The little brother, in the form of confidences that unfolded between the father and his five-year-old daughter (the author) and the two sisters (the author and her sister). We will see later that these confidences are both pushing them apart and bringing them together
