Question de moule

« Moule » in French designates, when feminine, the female genitalia, when masculine, a mold. This article explores how literary forms relate to « molds » through a variety of texts : Gautier' s Arria Marcella and Jensen's Gradiva. Proust's shell-shaped Madeleine, or Corinne' s vulva in La Route des Flandres. hiterary forms are as alive as their desire to se If -engender themselves from their own mold — to encounter la moule, be it called ptyx and engendered by form.Dällenbach Lucien.
