Abstract

According to Paul Ricoeur, « The text is the medium through which one understands oneself ». Claude Vigée (1921-2020), as a Jewish writer, tries to receive, embrace and perpetuate the identity conveyed by the Holy Scriptures into his own writing, while also relating it to his life. Asserting oneself as part of a vaster destiny or History; developing a better self-knowledge in the light of a shared relation to the world; finding one's reflection in Biblical figures, but also relinquishing one's Self for a better understanding of one's belonging: these are the paths taken by Vigée for this identity quest which implies the pursuit of the father - or, rather, of the Biblical Fathers - in a fully assumed filiation.
