Le texte nervalien illustre la vision simultanée et apparemment irréconciliable du Janus romantique. Divisé dans le temps et dans l'espace, déchiré entre plusieurs niveaux de réalité, le Janus nervalien s'expérimente dans la multiplicité d'un moi fragmenté. Le texte illustre la quête de l'être pour une totalité qu'il perçoit dans l'autre, dans le reflet. Cette quête trouve sa source dans le désir à jamais inassouvi pour la source, elle-même imaginaire, de l'image. L'image métaphorique, en réinventant l'unité primordiale dans l'écriture, représente alors l'ultime tentative d'un moi morcelé pour se cerner dans sa totalité.

Language Notes:
Text: French
Review:
«...it is a truly distinguished work: very well informed, original in its approach, subtle and penetrating in its psychological analysis of Nerval, never prententious or pedantic to an excess. It offers thoughtful and keen insights into the literature of dream and of self-portraiture in the romantic age. It should interest not just specialists of French literature, but person interested in European romanticism and in the recent trends in criticism and in psychology.» (Henri Peyre, emeritus distinguished professor, Yale and CUNY, former president, the Modern Language Association) «The book offers solid footholds to all those who struggle with Nerval.» (Scott Carpenter, French Review)
