Abstract

Published in 2006, Comment peut-on être français ? by Chahdortt Djavann, a partly epistolary novel, evokes the figure of Montesquieu’s Roxane. This article proposes an analysis of the representation of exile inscribed in three symbolic spaces: that of language, that of the female body and that of text. It is around these three concepts that this work is organized to study the alienation of the female subject in a Franco-Iranian intercultural position.
