Riscritture novecentesche di Ofelia: Château en Suède di Françoise Sagan

The intepretation of Françoise Sagan’s play entitled Château en Suède (1960) like a shakespearian hypertext shows the vivacity and the inexhaustibility of the rewritings and of the revisitings of the great English dramatist in France. The reference concerns Hamlet and, in particular, the role of Ophelia that Françoise Sagan represents as a character-image assimilated to the language deprivation typical of the theatre of the absurd. Château en Suède has become, in turn, the hypo-text of several cinematographic revisitings that, although original, perpetuate the cultural memory.
