Jean Ricardou (born 17 June 1932 in Cannes (France) — died 23 July 2016 in Cannes)[1] was a French writer and theorist.[2] He joined the Tel Quel editorial board in 1962, writing for the review until 1971.[3] Between 1961 and 1984 he published three novels, a collection of short stories, four books of critical theory and a "mix" of fiction and theory, whilst being the main theorist of the French New Novel literary movement before devoting his work, as of 1985, almost exclusively to the invention and development of a new science of writing: textics.[4]
