Abstract

The aim of our article is to determine to what extent the enunciative mode of exposure is likely to construct worlds with texts or to envisage the texts "as a means of configuration which makes them capable of projecting a world"(Fonseca, 1994: 108), and this through the notion of deixis. To this end, we shall first present the basic theoretical concepts, focusing on the specific contribution of Karl Bühler (2009 [1934]) and Fernanda Irene Fonseca (1992, 1994), who, by concentrating on the case of narration, envisages an enunciative theory of fiction, presenting the fundamental notion of deixis fictive (or deixis narrative). In this wake, we intend to focus on the enunciative construction of the exhibition of the past in Patrick Modiano's novel.
