abstract = {In the story Légende de Seppê-Kaas au jour des Morts by Eugène Demolder every element is doubled. First of all, it concerns the composition, that is, the temporal and spatial structure of the text: the location, Belgium, i.e. the North versus Italy, i.e. the South; the time: present and retrospective past, the narrator: hetero- and homodiegetic. Next, there are the elements of diegesis, which define the narrative dynamics, as well as the symbolic imaginary stratum: ascetic minimalism and erotic freedom, darkness and light, naturalistic literariness and symbolic ambiguity. Cohesion is provided by the ubiquitous image of death: it is death that determines both the sense of current events and the significance of the scenes generated by memories, or, possibly, illusions of the eponymous protagonist-narrator.
