Le fait divers est un matériau récurrent de la fiction littéraire, peut-être même, depuis quelques décennies déjà, un de ses enjeux majeurs. Son apparente insignifiance consonne avec certaine légèreté 'postmoderne', sa trivialité permet d'infinis jeux transgressifs. Il se pourrait d'autre part que son abondance et sa banalisation mêmes le rendent exemplaire d'une cruauté et d'une barbarie secrètes de notre monde. Il aurait été prématuré de proposer déjà un panorama de ce champ thématique toujours en plein mouvement. L'éventail ici proposé en fait au moins le tour: y voisinent des classiques comme Georges Perec, Marguerite Yourcenar ou Raymond Queneau et des voix plus neuves comme celles de Jean Echenoz, Olivier Rolin ou François Bon.

This innovative cultural history investigates an intriguing, thrilling, and often lurid assortment of sensational literature that was extremely popular in the United States in 1848--including dime novels, cheap story paper literature, and journalism for working-class Americans. Shelley Streeby uncovers themes and images in this "literature of sensation" that reveal the profound influence that the U.S.-Mexican War and other nineteenth-century imperial ventures throughout the Americas had on U.S. politics and culture. Streeby's analysis of this fascinating body of popular literature and mass culture broadens into a sweeping demonstration of the importance of the concept of empire for understanding U.S. history and literature. This accessible, interdisciplinary book brilliantly analyzes the sensational literature of George Lippard, A.J.H Duganne, Ned Buntline, Metta Victor, Mary Denison, John Rollin Ridge, Louisa May Alcott, and many other writers. Streeby also discusses antiwar articles in the labor and land reform press; ideas about Mexico, Cuba, and Nicaragua in popular culture; and much more. Although the Civil War has traditionally been a major period marker in U.S. history and literature, Streeby proposes a major paradigm shift by using mass culture to show that the U.S.-Mexican War and other conflicts with Mexicans and Native Americans in the borderlands were fundamental in forming the complex nexus of race, gender, and class in the United States.
