   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.02 sec.

Blanchot, Maurice (born 1907)

French critic and novelist. Between 1930 and 1939 he wrote mainly for the right-wing press. Faux pas (1943) brings together some 60 of the literary essays he contributed to the Journal des débats 1941–44. After 1940 Blanchot's own narratives paralleled his theoretical writings.

Other volumes of criticism include La Part du feu (1949), Lautréamont et Sade (1949), L'Espace littéraire (1955), Le Livre à venir (1959), L'Entretien infini (1969), and L'Amitié (1971). His fiction includes Thomas l'obscur (1941; revised 1950), Aminadab (1942), Au Moment voulu (1951), Le Ressassement éternel (1952), L'Attente l'oubli (1962), and La Folie du jour (1973).

Le Pas au-delà (1973) contains some of Blanchot's later theoretical and literary fragments.
