En quête d’une vérité oblique : les œuvres de Pierre Bordage au miroir de leurs artefacts mythographiques by Simon Bréan

“…This paper will try and show that, in Bordage writing, all the functions of these artifacts are encompassed in a broader approach to mythical thinking, so as to emulate how mythographic writing can be lively and elusive.
