Rahab, la prostituée Cananéenne, sauve la vie des deux espions qui avaient été envoyés par Joshua en reconnaissance en vue de l’invasion Israélite imminente de la ville de Jéricho. En guise de récompense pour son aide, Rahab et sa famille sont épargnées et autorisées à vivre parmi les Israélites après la destruction de Jericho. Ce mémoire retrace l’historique de l’interprétation de l’histoire de Rahab de l’Antiquité au Moyen-Age, et ce en se penchant sur les problématiques textuelles, narratives et morales qui sont en jeu. L'importance de la thématique de l’inclusion dans l’interprétation de l’histoire de Rahab est tout particulièrement mise de l'avant.

Abstract Contemporary narrative, defined here as a generic body of texts, seems to be most often dominated by an introspective voice, that of an enunciative “I” whose various postures reveal the difficult access to the spoken word. The two texts studied in this paper (“Un simple soldat” from Douze coups de théâtre by Michel Tremblay and “ Le chef-d'oeuvre ” from the collection Un sourire incertain by Bernard Lévy) nonetheless reverse these parameters. Rather than rely on the insufficiencies and incompletedness of the spoken word, the two texts use the narrative to illustrate the potentialities of the voice, but also, paradoxically, to bring out the necessity of neutralising that very voice. In doing so, both narratives, each in its own way, go against a certain literary orthodoxy.
