abstract = {Most of the critics in their studies dedicated to Laure (Colette Peignot), French author dead in 1938 and published posthumously, claim that her biography and her writings are inseparable and, moreover, try to defend one legitimate vision of her life and work. However, this allegedly true image appeares to be made up of many personal opinions, judgements and anecdotes, coming essentially from men who were closely attached to Laure and who, not on rare occasions, used it for their own purposes. Thus, the aim of this paper is to examine how Boris Souvarine, Georges Bataille and a few other authors elaborated Laure’s mythology and dictated for decades the reception of her writings.},
