The aim was to show the extent to which Philippe Vilain's work belongs to both autofiction and the novel of analysis. My intention was to highlight its dual nature. As such, Philippe Vilain’s work draws inspiration from nineteenth century novels, while seamlessly integrating into the contemporary literary landscape.In this context, I have chosen to explore the resonance between two key texts: Benjamin Constant's Adolphe and Philippe Vilain's Le Renoncement – from three points of view: intermittent filiations, the effects of silence and the force of digressions.To provide a comprehensive perspective, I referenced several of Philippe Vilain's other novels (such as Pas son genre, Une idée de l’enfer, L’Étreinte, Un matin d’hiver, Paris l’après-midi) and critical works; and in so doing I have attempted to establish the distinctive identity of pensive fiction from his numerous literary contributions.

Because World literature in French has generally been reduced to literature writing “in French”, our study aims to show that this has not always been the case. Before the publication of the manifesto of the 44 and the anthology Pour une littérature-monde, the notion, linked to the activities carried out around the Étonnants Voyageurs festival, had largely evolved. By taking a retrospective reading of the geographical spaces modelled by the manifesto discourses and the association of the contributors with a country in the anthologies published under the banner of this movement, we show that this concept refers in turn to a European, postcolonial, extra-hexagonal and international literature in French in France.

Philippe Vilain’s work is a significant contribution to the contemporary literary field, because it invests the styles and genres of his time (autofiction, exofiction and non-fiction)as much as it is invested by theoretical concerns: his fictions pensives are characterized by their capacity to offer a fictional framework for pondering the love experience, which is likely to influence the writing of essays and feed on it. This article proposes to highlight some of these fictional expansions of his thinking, their relationship to his work as an essayist, as well as the writer's ability to transform ordinary experience into both a literary object and a structured thought.
