Some Thoughts on… Far from the Madding Crowd and its Adaptations 1 Some Thoughts on… Far from the Madding Crowd and its Adaptations Quelques réflexions sur… Far from the Madding Crowd et ses adaptations Laurence Estanove Introduction: “Bringing Shepherd Back” 1 In the whole of Hardy’s work, Far from the Madding Crowd is probably, today, the novel that has entailed the most numerous adaptations, or at least adaptations of the most various kinds. The multiplication of those in very recent years may naturally be said to testify to the modernity of Hardy’s writing. But one might also wonder what attracted a variety of artistic practices in that particular novel of Hardy’s, while others, such as Tess, have enjoyed a greater popularity yet generated a more restricted number of adaptations. To this day, four filmmakers as well as one cartoonist and one opera composer have made Hardy’s fourth novel their own.

Dans l’univers de la narration graphique, nous trouvons Gemma Bovery (2014) de Posy Simmonds, actuel- lement le seul roman graphique inspiré du chef-d’œuvre Madame Bovary (1857) de Gustave Flaubert. L’objectif du présent article est d’étudier l’ironie flaubertienne comme source de l’humour de Posy Simmonds dans Gemma Bovery (2014). D’abord, nous contextualiserons notre étude dans le domaine des adaptations, de la bande dessinée et du roman graphique à partir des ouvrages et des auteurs clés. Ensuite, dans une partie méthodologique, nous essayerons de définir brièvement le concept d’ironie ainsi que les différents concepts qui peuvent la déclencher dans un texte littéraire. Finalement, dans l’analyse proposée, nous étudierons la présence de l’ironie flaubertienne de la forme au contenu de ce roman graphique, afin d’observer également son originalité.
