TI - Rewriting of the Don Juan myth: La Nuit de Valognes by Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt
AB - 
	The paper deals with Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt’s play entitled La Nuit de Valognes [Don Juan on Trial], which is a modern rewriting of the Don Juan myth. Using the terminology proposed by Gérard Genette, the study explores the hypertextual links that exist between the Schmitt’s and the original Molière’s texts. Based on a subsequent analysis of the changes that occur both at the level of the dramatic categories and the thematic level, we offer some new possibilities of interpreting Schmitt’s text and point to the author’s creative originality.
