Le moi fragmenté dans une société hyperréelle : crise identitaire dans « Point Omega » de Don DeLillo

Résumé

This article examines the representation of self-fragmentation in Don DeLillo’s Point Omega following the theoretical frameworks of Baudrillard’s simulacra and the hyperreal, alongside Jameson’s late capitalism. The article argues that the characters’ fractured selves reflect a larger postmodern condition, where reality is substituted by the hyperreal governed by ideological dominance. The analysis deepens our insight on how contemporary fiction addresses issues of selfhood and reality.
