Abstract
This essay attempts to demonstrate Brittany as seen by Le Clézio. In presenting the land of the writer’s ancestors, it relies heavily on a text described by himself as an ‶autobiographical tale″ Chanson bretonne (2020). The essay also refers to a polyphonic novel, Revolutions (2003), which deepens the representation of the Breton country by a historical stratum. In line with geopoetic theories, the theme of the land does not stop in Le Clézio’s work at the level of description but attains the status of a more metaphorical representation. I propose to enrich the geopoetic approach with the methods of the geocritical and ecocritical approaches.
