Abstract

Andre Gide employed the "mise en abyme" or Mirror- like method as reflected in Andre Walter's notebooks from the time when he began his writing. As a result, he presented a new approach to the writing style of novels. He intended to develop another aspect of his life into his prose by using this literary genre. not so much customary. Later on, he used such new literary genre in his writing such as Narciss's Treaty, Love intention as well as in Paludism and some other works. In the present essay, this approach will be studied to show how much of a good role he played in changing the writing style of novels.
