CHARLES GRIVEL
(1936 2015)
Charles Grivel a t l'un des pionniers universitaires
traiter avec la mme rigueur et la mme passion littrature
populaire et littrature majuscule. Sa thse, rcemment
rdite par les soins de lAssociation Littrature Populaire
& Culture Mdiatique quil avait prsideProduction de
lintrt romanesque. Un tat du texte (1870-1880, un essai
de constitution de sa thorie), La Haye-Paris, Mouton, 1973
tudiait 200 romans parus Paris entre 1870 et 1880.
Autant que ses conclusions, c'est l'intrt de travailler sur
des corpus de grande taille qui avait fait date.Il ne s'est
toutefois pas senti oblig de capitaliserl-dessus. Sans
mme parler de ses nombreux entretiens, ni de son
indfectible engagement pour tout ce qui permettait de
promouvoir l'intelligibilit de la production populaire, son
criture a t multiple (traduction, compte-rendus,
prfaces), prolifique (surtout en articles) et a abord de
nombreux thmes : Dumas, la photographie, Jarry, Tppfer
et bien des aspects de la culture populaire. Et que dire de
Fantastique-fiction(Paris, PUF, coll. criture, 1992),avec
son point de vue singulier ? Sonmeilleur essai sans doute,
emblmatisant queCharles avait autant le got de
l'rudition et de l'empirisme descriptif que le got pour
thoriser les romans pop, autant legotde la recherche que
le got de l'criture. Mme sil tait familier de Dracula et
de bien dautres monstres tapis dans notre imaginaire
collectif, cest en fait le crabe qui aura eu raison de lui
cejeudi 14 mai 2015.Avec tristesse,Marginalia se devait
de souligner ce dpart dfinitif.

LACROIX, Grgoire,
Mythes et nigmes
dans loeuvre de Tolkien, Saint-Denis,
dilivre, 2014, 84 pages.
A travers les histoires qu'il raconte dans Le Seigneur des
anneaux et Bilbo le hobbit, Tolkien met en place des
mythes qui donnent son oeuvre une profondeur et une
cohrence exceptionnelles. Chez lui, tout surprend et
pourtant rien n'arrive sans raison. Si les rois pousent des
princesses elfiques, si des personnages se dfient coup
d'nigmes, si certains meurent tel moment plutt qu' tel
autre, si de simples hobbits accomplissent les exploits que
de puissants elfes ne peuvent pas russir, rien de cela n'est
d au hasard. Ce sont ces mythes que l'auteur de cet essai
analyse ici, donnant un clairage original sur une oeuvre
qu'il faut comparer aux grands rcits mythologiques
antiques plutt qu' l'hroque fantaisie moderne.

RISDEN, Edward L., Tolkiens Intellectual
Landscape, Jefferson (NC), McFarland, 2015,
240 pages.
The work of J.R.R. Tolkien has had a profound effect on
contemporary fiction and filmmaking. Often disparaged by
critics, Tolkiens fiction created a market for the fantasy
trilogy and his academic work represents an innovative
contribution to the field of philology. In the 20th century,
his fiction bridged the gap between learned and popular
readerships. Today the fantasy genre continues to
groweven as publishers cut back on creative
fictionmoving energetically into film, gaming and online
fan fiction. This book describes how Tolkiens imaginative
landscape continues to entertain and inspire, drawing new
generations to Middle-earth.

TAVES,Brian,
Hollywood Presents Jules
Verne : The Father of Science Fiction on
S c r e e n , Lexington, University Press of
Kentucky, 2015, (Screen Classics), 2015, 370
pages.
Adaptations of Verne's tales have taken many forms-early
movie shorts, serials, feature films, miniseries, and
television shows-and have been produced as both animated
and live-action films. Taves illuminates how, as these
stories have been made and remade over the years, each
new adaptation looks back not only to Verne's words but
also to previous screen incarnations. He also examines how
generations of actors have portrayed iconic characters such
as Phileas Fogg and Captain Nemo, and how these figures
are treated in pastiches such as Journey 2: The Mysterious
Island (2012). Investigating the biggest box-office hits as
well as lower-budget productions, this comprehensive study
will appeal not only to fans of the writer's work but also to
readers interested in the ever-changing relationship between
literature, theater, and film.
