In this master's paper, the author analyses some paratextual elements of the original editions of Le Second Enfer by Etienne Dolet published in Lyon and Troyes in 1544. On the one hand, she studies the title of the work, particularly the wide connotation field he alludes to and, on the other hand, the set of themes that links the poetical defence of Dolet to the texts that are added to it. On the basis of that analysis, the author tries to demonstrate the essentially argumentative function of the paratext and she explains how the Second Enfer, in his original architecture, relates to the infernal tradition.
