| Summary |
"Supercheries littéraires : pastiches, suppositions d'auteur dans les lettres et dans les arts" by Octave Delepierre is a scholarly publication written in the late 19th century. The work explores various literary deceptions, focusing specifically on pastiches and authorial attributions throughout literary history. It delves into the blurred lines between imitation, parody, and pastiche, offering insights into the intentions behind these forms of literary artifice. The opening of the book establishes a foundation for the discussion on literary supercheries by referencing previous works on related topics. Delepierre expresses the complexity of defining pastiche and its similarities to other literary genres such as parody and cento. He notes the historical origins of pastiche and its perpetuation through different epochs, illustrating how authors across cultures have engaged in literary imitation and fabrication, often invoking the names of esteemed writers to lend credibility to their works. This section sets the stage for a thorough examination of the nuances and implications of literary imitations and authorial fabrications in the following chapters.
