Cet ouvrage explore deux romans de Peter Ackroyd, Hawksmoor et The House of Doctor Dee, sous l'angle de leur propension l'irrationnel, et vise identifier les points communs entre trois courants litt raires dans la construction de l'irrationalit la tradition gothique, la litt rature visionnaire romantique et le postmodernisme. L' l ment qui relie les diff rences entre ces litt ratures est le rejet de la raison: le gothique met l'accent sur des sentiments puissants tels que l'horreur ou la terreur, les romantiques accordent une grande importance la vision comme moyen d'atteindre la connaissance ultime, tandis que les lois litt raires postmodernes gravitent autour de l'impossibilit essentielle de poss der un sens unique et logique du discours. L'objectif est donc de montrer comment les l ments des conventions litt raires susmentionn es ont une incidence sur Hawksmoor et The House of Doctor Dee d'Ackroyd en soulignant des l ments sp cifiques dans les deux textes, en comparant et en opposant leurs motifs communs ou dissemblables, les circonstances de l'intrigue, le choix des personnages et les techniques narratives.
