L'étude explore l'influence de la culture américaine sur la littérature française contemporaine en se concentrant sur les œuvres de Joël Dicker, Maxime Chattam et Antoine Bello. Elle montre comment ces auteurs s'inspirent des codes du thriller américain pour aborder des thèmes universels tout en les réinterprétant à travers le prisme de la littérature française. L'analyse révèle que cette influence est le résultat d'une combinaison de facteurs, dont l'histoire culturelle, les dynamiques de réappropriation narrative, et la fascination pour l'imaginaire américain, bien au-delà du simple rôle des médias. Les œuvres étudiées se distinguent par leur capacité à intégrer ces éléments tout en conservant une identité littéraire propre, donnant ainsi à l'étiquette de "roman américain" une dimension qui transcende les frontières nationales. The study explores the influence of American culture on contemporary French literature, focusing on the works of Joël Dicker, Maxime Chattam, and Antoine Bello. It shows how these authors draw from the conventions of the American thriller to tackle universal themes while reinterpreting them through the lens of French literature. The analysis reveals that this influence results from a combination of factors, including cultural history, dynamics of narrative appropriation, and a fascination with the American imagination, far beyond the simple role of the media. The works examined are distinguished by their ability to integrate these elements while maintaining a distinct literary identity, giving the label of "American novel" a dimension that transcends national boundaries.

In this stimulating and highly original study of the writing of American history, twenty-four scholars from eleven European countries explore the impact of writing history from abroad. Six distinguished scholars from around the world add their commentaries. Arguing that historical writing is conditioned, crucially, by the place from which it is written, this volume identifies the formative impact of a wide variety of institutional and cultural factors that are commonly overlooked. Examining how American history is written from Europe, the contributors shed light on how history is written in the United States and, indeed, on the way history is written anywhere. The innovative perspectives included in Historians across Borders are designed to reinvigorate American historiography as the rise of global and transnational history is creating a critical need to understand the impact of place on the writing and teaching of history. This book is designed for students in historiography, global and transnational history, and related courses in the United States and abroad, for US historians, and for anyone interested in how historians work.
