The eighteenth century, commonly described as the age of the novel, is also the golden age of travel narratives. In this English edition of Le Récit de voyage en Angleterre au XVIIIe siècle, the genre of the travel narrative receives a treatment based on its development in close relationship with fiction. The book provides a survey of famous travel narratives: James Boswell's journal of a tour to Corsica and account of his trip to Scotland with Samuel Johnson, Laurence Sterne's enigmatic Sentimental Journey, Tobias Smollett's Travels through France and Italy. Negotiating between inventory and invention, these texts invite a reconsideration of conventional generic distinctions. They open up a literary space in which the full significance of the real and fictional journey motif can be explored.

Classique inclassable, le récit célèbre de Jonathan Swift, Les Voyages de Gulliver (1726), parcourt les genres littéraires (récit de voyage, satire, conte philosophique) sans s’en laisser assigner aucun de manière homogène et stable. Depuis longtemps abondamment commenté, étudié et interprété, le texte a donné lieu à une immense bibliothèque critique. Jean Viviès se propose ici de verser au volumineux dossier des interprétations de Gulliver une lecture, certes documentée à la lumière de la recherche anglo-américaine et française, passée et contemporaine, mais aussi une lecture délibérément orientée. Il prend pour angle de réflexion la question bien moins souvent abordée des retours du voyageur, de son retour comme problème. Le texte-matrice des récits de voyage de la littérature occidentale, l’Odyssée d’Homère, est au fond l’histoire d’un retour : un retour à l’île d’où l’on est parti, un retour à l’origine, un retour à soi. Ce retour ouvre la réflexion sur l’identité et permet le geste narratif. Chez Swift, les retours des différents voyages, au nombre de quatre et qui scandent ainsi le texte en autant de parties, sont ces lieux du récit, en Angleterre dont Gulliver, marin et médecin, est parti, où se mesure à chaque fois l’écart entre Gulliver et lui-même. Ce voyage de retour est au fond bien plus hasardeux que les tempêtes de n’importe quel récit de voyage. L’essai se propose ainsi d’éclairer cet autre voyage, un texte qui garde toujours sa part de singularité, comme l’énigmatique géant que les Lilliputiens découvrirent un jour échoué sur leur rivage.
