Sumario:This work proposes, from the postulates of Michel Foucault, to give an account of the relationships between literature and the forms of power in two works: Le crépuscule des singes (2022), by Alison Cosson and Louise Vignaud, and Le roman de Monsieur de Molière (1962), by Mikhail Boulgakov. The first is a theatrical piece that was part of the programming for the 400th anniversary of Molière's birth. For its creation, the authors took, as source text, the second work, which is the biographical fiction that Bulgakov wrote about Molière. In both, the story reveals the censorship devices that condemned the two authors, Molière and Boulgakov, to an artistic life curtailed by political, real and factual power.
