Abstract
From Austro-hungarian Galicia, a multiethnic and multiconfessional geographical area ; Joseph Roth was always interested in the phenomena of multiculturality. In the novels he wrote in the Thirties he establishes a real poetics of memory which aims at a literary recreation of some multicultural spaces of Central and Oriental Europe. But at the very heart of these attempts lies a dynamic of disintegration, and also a hollowing-out that accounts retroactively for the unpredictable character and real fragility of his vision. Beyond the fleeting epiphanies of multiculturality appears the failure of the models of totality and cultural symbiosis staged in the text.
