Abstract
This paper analyses the reflections of Hélène Cixous and, briefly, those of Ariane Mnouchkine on the puppet as related to the text, the play and the film of Tambours sur la digue. The main elements analysed are: the unfolding, the “being two” of the puppet; its parallelism with the writing; its function of exteriorizing what Cixous calls “the interior puppet”; the nakedness; the puppet’s capacity of revealing the fragility of the human being. The reflections of Cixous, the spectacle and also the film of Tambours sur la digue share these articulations.
