Abstract

This project aims to start a study about the current intertextuality in two Georges Perec's namesake works, the book (1967) and the movie (1973) both named Un home qui dort. To do it, we are going to read and discuss the essential theoretical bibliography about intertextuality, the relationship between literature and cinema, the critic fortune of this works to proceed forwards to the analysis of some possessions (of text and image) presented either in the book or in the movie.
