Zusammenfassung:	In concert with the recent transnational turn in modernist studies, this essay surveys the Parisian intellectual and literary trends echoed in Beckett's "Anglo-Irish" fiction of the thirties. Probed in particular are the extensive role André Gide played in shaping Beckett's views and practice of the modern novel and the tension between the real and the "ideal real" in the two writers' work. What would Gide's stature be in Beckett studies, one wonders, if Beckett had completed the monograph he planned to write on Gide as he had on Proust?
