Le Discours Indirect Libre Dans « Deux Innocents » D’alice Ferney

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Free indirect speech is characteristic of Alice Ferney. In Deux Innocents, this type of speech introduces more variety in the discourse, as well as a sense of doubt, which is one of the particularities of her style. Alice Ferney prefers the use of present tense, mixes points of view, the main character’s point of view is frequently reported through free indirect speech. The present tense is the time of interiority, of the inner monologue, of the unexpressed dream of the inner life of the characters. In addition, free indirect speech is for Ferney the terrain of hidden psychological and intellectual analysis.
