Qu'y a-t-il de commun entre certains romans europeens du xviie siecle et les grands chefs-d' uvre chinois des Ming et des Qing ? Une meme aspiration poetique, des effets esthetiques comparables, et une conscience aigue de leur propre nature fictionnelle. Cette ecriture reflexive, c'est la metafiction. Nee en Europe et en Chine a des epoques voisines, elle se deploie dans les romans classiques chinois comme dans les recits occidentaux des xviie et xviiie siecles. Plus tard, l' uvre de Jorge Luis Borges croise la voie du roman d'avant-garde chinois, revelant une circulation secrete des formes et des idees entre Orient et Occident. De cette traversee comparatiste emerge une question fondamentale : que nous dit la metafiction sur la nature meme de la fiction ? Cet ouvrage explore l'evolution de ce genre romanesque qui, du xvie au xxe siecle, n'a cesse de reflechir sur ses propres moyens et sa propre verite.
