Abstract
Under the influence of Proust himself, biographies of Proust are often seen as a pretext for bypassing the work and replacing its interpretation with a large number of anecdotes. However, from the beginning to the present day, Proust’s biographers have taken a structural view of the writer’s life, thanks to which its details are part of a long-term logic that only becomes apparent at the moment of creation.
