Literature is an ontological phenomenology in the sense that the intelligibility of the being is stated thus "the being is". Relevant of plenitude and therefore of totality; that is to say of transcendentality. In the same way for the question of the literature from the point of view of the being (the "literature is"). Literature "is" or "is something"? "Literature is" is sufficient in the sense that participating of totality it does not possess any knowable, exhaustive, unique and definitive predicate. It is thus understood as a defining process of being. This work discusses three texts (by BOUDJEDRA, CAMUS and BEN JELLOUN) as a phenomenology due to the paradigm shift: from the "given of perception" to the "conceptual given": "the character who is and only is" does not exist anywhere except in language (narrative). But language does not exist nor does it refer to the material world. Consequently, the historicity and the transcendentality of the given of the literature concur not to "beings" (characters; even less persons) but to the being-one of the language; the language itself; in what it has of absolute: its universality in the sense of independence (of the genius) of the man (writer).
