Explication de Texte is a French formalist method of literary analysis that allows for limited reader response, similar to close reading in the English-speaking literary tradition. The method involves a detailed yet relatively objective examination of structure, style, imagery, and other aspects of a work.[1] It was particularly advocated by Gustave Lanson.
It is primarily a pedagogical tool, similar to a formal book report.
A simple format for writing an Explication de Texte is this:
A brief summary of the literal, not the figurative, content;
A description of the text's type and structure (e.g. Was it a sonnet? What kind?) and its tone;
The poetic devices used in the text (e.g. personification)
