  • Descrição: It is held that the semiological description of the structure of a literary work is one of the most rewarding ways in which to bring out the connections between a work & its socio-historical context. The method consists in moving from the external soc context to the internal soc context of the work; in building up the description of both contexts by using uniform instruments of definition in each case, & in revealing structural correspondences between the structural context of the work & its socio-historical context. This method of analysis is illustrated by the results of a study of the narrative structure of LES MYSTERES DE PARIS by Eugene Sue (1843). An attempt was made to separate the series or systems which play a part in the work: (a) the author's ideology, (b) the market conditions which determined or favored the conception, the writing & the circulation of the book, (c) the narrative structures (whether plot structures or rhetorical figures or locutions, use of language, or stylistic devices such as can be observed in the construction of phrase or sentence). In order to understand Sue's ideological attitude at the time when he wrote LES MYSTERES, a resume is presented of his intellectual evolution. The plot structures & stylistic devices in LES MYS- TERES which correspond to selected ideological structures are expounded. In conclusion, it is stated that if the analysis sets out to discover how the hyp'al constants change in particular socio-historical situations (ie, how the patterns evolve or are modified even in works which make use of stereotypes), then the method, even if used to begin with only on standardized works, should provide us with useful pointers for the understanding of every kind of narrative message.
