This book opens a novel perspective on comics and literature interactions.
It claims that the two artistic media have always maintained a mutual
emulation, for as long as they have coexisted in media culture. To demon-
strate this, the present research does not focus on literary adaptations in
comics form but rather on a literary corpus that remains virtually unex-
plored: comics- related novels. The purpose of this volume is to inven-
tory French comics- related novels and to study them. Within the limits
of the French- speaking world, this book pieces together a literary history
of bande dessinée through its novels, from the nineteenth to twenty- first
centuries. Although the comic strip – including the aptly named “graphic
novel” – has sometimes been regarded as the disciple of an unsurpass-
able literary model, do these under- studied adaptations in novel form not
rather indicate a mutual relationship, or even an emulation, between the
two media?
Benoît Glaude is a researcher at Universiteit Gent and a visiting lecturer
at Université catholique de Louvain, Belgium. He has published sev-
eral books about French- speaking comics, including his PhD on comics
dialogues (La Bande dialoguée, 2019), as well as a volume on noveliza-
tion in children’s literature (Les Novellisations pour la jeunesse, coedited
with Laurent Déom, 2020).
