- Summary:
- If suffering seems to be the major existential that dominates the work of Bernanos, it is because it allows the revelation of a fundamental experience: man lives in the world because he falls into it. In this chaoticization of space and time, the fall is in fact the very constitution of being as a body. Thus the writer gives us to see the collapse only to lead us to live it as a dimension of the being-there of what we are - not by fighting against him, but by letting us roll in him as in a wave. No one has his body. No one is his body. It is to stand at the frontier, or to agree to fall without immediately recovering, that philosophy will probably be able to rethink the meaning of the indwelling of the body, even the indwelling of the man himself by God--Hermann.
