  • Firstly, various inquiries have shown that post mortem editions of the works and correspondence of Jean Boudou (1920-1975), a major author of Occitan literature, harbour numerous undeclared changes which it is difficult to find justification for. Far from merely affecting the spelling, these modifications have been applied, more importantly, to lexical items and proper nouns, morphology and syntax, supra-phrasal organization and, on a colossal scale, to the punctuation. We postulate then that the marked posthumous variation in the writings of Boudou is largely the result of unilateral, clandestine, deliberately anonymous editorial intervention, and it is our aim to reveal its nature (in the first place, its puristic stance). Finally, we suggest that this intervention, which sets up a barrier between textual reality and the analyst, is an epistemological obstacle which must be surmounted by restoring the rights of philology in the face of the pretensions of rewriting.
