Le 5 août 1850, alors qu'il travaille à son livre sur la baleine, Herman Melville rencontre Nathaniel Hawthorne, propulsé au rang de plus grand écrivain américain après la publication de La Lettre écarlate. Entre les deux hommes naît une amitié littéraire aux accents passionnels. Quelques mois plus tard, Melville dédie Moby Dick à son nouvel ami. L'évidence de leur rencontre est aussi fulgurante que le sera la fin de leur histoire.A cette relation complexe de deux êtres qu'un même fond de mélancolie rapproche et que des tempéraments opposés séparent, Stéphane Lambert entrelace des éléments de vie personnels et romanesques, et des interrogations sur la création, la fraternité ou le désir. Ecrire devient alors une autre manière d'aimer.

This volume provides a comprehensive overview of Nathaniel Hawthorne and demonstrates why he continues to be a critically significant figure in American literature. The first section focuses on Hawthorne's interest in and knowledge of past (Puritan and colonial) and contemporary nineteenth-century history (women's, African American, Native American) as the inspiration for his writings and the source of his literary success. The second section explores his fascination with social history and popular culture by examining topics as mesmerism, utopian life styles, theatrical performances, and artistic innovations. The third section looks at how Hawthorne succeeded and excelled in the literary marketplace, as an author of children's literature, literary sketches, and historical romances. In the fourth section, Hawthorne's literary precursors, peers, colleagues, and successors are analyzed. In the final section, Hawthorne's attachment to family, nature, and home is examined as the source of creative inspiration and philosophical questing.

This book establishes the genealogy of a subgenre of crime fiction that Antoine Dechêne calls the metacognitive mystery tale. It delineates a corpus of texts presenting 'unreadable' mysteries which, under the deceptively monolithic appearance of subverting traditional detective story conventions, offer a multiplicity of motifs – the overwhelming presence of chance, the unfulfilled quest for knowledge, the urban stroller lost in a labyrinthine text – that generate a vast array of epistemological and ontological uncertainties. Analysing the works of a wide variety of authors, including Edgar Allan Poe, Jorge Luis Borges, and Henry James, this book is vital reading for scholars of detective fiction.
