The aim of this study is to show how class, monetary considerations and literary ambitions influenced the seemingly factual retellings of those events. L’étude analyse les premiers récits américains de captivité barbaresque. Deux récits présentant de notables divergences et portant sur le même épisode (la capture de la frégate USS Philadelphia en 1803) sont examinés, l’un des récits étant celui d’un officier, l’autre celui d’un simple marin. L’objet est de montrer comment les questions de classe sociale, les enjeux monétaires et les ambitions littéraires ont influencé le compte-rendu, en apparence factuelle, des événements.
