Hardy in France: Belles Lettres and Popular Culture
Starting with the role of popular culture and more specifically cinema in the possible dissemination of Hardy’s name in the perceptions of a French audience, we briefly evoke the existing translations of Hardy’s works to look back at their reception in his own time. We evoke in particular the major...

Cet article s’intéresse tout d’abord au role qu’a pu jouer la culture populaire, et plus spécifiquement le cinéma, dans la dissémination possible du nom de Thomas Hardy dans les représentations du public français. Il évoque ensuite brièvement les traductions françaises des œuvres de Hardy et leur réception de son temps, en s’arrêtant plus particulièrement sur les grands auteurs français qui lui ont souvent été associés ainsi que sur les critiques contemporains ayant célébré son écriture. Il est ainsi possible de suivre le fil de cette critique hardyenne française tout au long du vingtième siècle jusqu’aux activités de recherche les plus récentes, portées ces dernières années par FATHOM, French Association for Thomas Hardy Studies. En tissant ces liens, on voit (sans surprise) se révéler la force universelle de l’écriture de Hardy, élément central de la célébration critique de son œuvre en France, tant aujourd’hui qu’à son époque. |

| description |
Starting with the role of popular culture and more specifically cinema in the possible dissemination of Hardy’s name in the perceptions of a French audience, we briefly evoke the existing translations of Hardy’s works to look back at their reception in his own time. We evoke in particular the major French writers who have been most commonly associated with him as well as the contemporary critics who celebrated his work. We trace the presence of Hardy in French criticism throughout the 20th century up to the most recent academic activities, heralded by the French Association for Thomas Hardy Studies (FATHOM). Through such connections, it is (unsurprisingly) the universal strength of Hardy’s writing that stands out as a key feature in French critics’ appraisal of his work, both in his time and today. |
