James Joyce (1882-1941) est un romancier et poète irlandais expatrié, considéré comme l’un des écrivains les plus influents du 20e siècle. Parmi ses œuvres marquantes on compte «Les Gens de Dublin» (1914), «Portrait de l'artiste en jeune homme» (1916), «Ulysse» (1922) et «Finnegans Wake» (1939). Dès sa parution aux États-Unis, «Ulysse» suscite la controverse, puisque jugé obscène, et est interdit jusqu’en 1931. Joyce est décédé à Zurich en 1941.
F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in 1896, attended Princeton University in 1913, and published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920. That same year he married Zelda Sayre, and he quickly became a central figure in the American expatriate circle in Paris that included Gertrude Stein and Ernest Hemingway. He died of a heart attack in 1940 at the age of forty-four.
Born in 1804, Nathaniel Hawthorne is known for his historical tales and novels about American colonial society. After publishing The Scarlet Letter in 1850, its status as an instant bestseller allowed him to earn a living as a novelist. Full of dark romanticism, psychological complexity, symbolism, and cautionary tales, his work is still popular today. He has earned a place in history as one of the most distinguished American writers of the nineteenth century.
