It is well known that in France the Spanish comedy is not considered a model to be imitated, yet, reading the peritexts (dédicace, avis au lecteur, épître) of the 17th Century French adapters and comparing the imitations with the sources, we can see attitudes that are not always connected to preconceived ideas about the superiority of génie français, both in the consideration that the playwrights reveal towards contemporary Spanish plays, and in their way of adapting them. After outlining the duration and extent of the phenomenon of the seventeenth-century comédie à l'espagnole, the study analyzes the pièces and the peritexts, following two paths: the first investigates the real knowledge and opinion that the French dramatists had of Spanish dramaturgy; the second reconstructs and analyzes the translation methods that, in their forewords, the adapters claim they want to use to make Spanish theatrical texts usable in France, and which they often disregard in their pièces.

Dans la première moitié du xviie siècle, un grand nombre de pièces s’inspirent d’œuvres espagnoles ou italiennes. Un des principaux adaptateurs de cette époque fut Antoine Le Métel d’Ouville. Cet ouvrage réunit deux comédies inspirées par Pérez de Montalbán et deux pièces tirées du théâtre italien.

Cet ouvrage présente la première édition moderne des "Chastes et loyales amours de Théagène et Cariclée" (1623), premier ouvrage publié par Alexandre Hardy. Cette pièce très longue est divisée en huit journées, qui dramatisent l'intrigue de l' "Histoire éthiopique" d'Héliodore, source explicitement déclarée dans le titre. La fortune de ce roman grec alexandrin dans la littérature moderne fut remarquable, même en dehors du roman et de sa poétique. La dramatisation d'Alexandre Hardy constitue ainsi la première et la plus importante d'une longue suite de pièces dérivées du roman d'Héliodore aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles, qui témoignent du succès de la source ancienne.
