Actually, for several years, (American) titles from the 19th and 20th centuries have been reappearing in many French publishing houses’ catalogues, a phenomenon which can in fact be seen as resurgent in the industry, but which seems to have gained momentum since 2010. This paper analyses this so-called trend and its artistic and economic bases, this situation being a perfect illustration of the permanent tension between aesthetic and economic values in the arts. To be as thorough as possible, this dissertation relies on several book-chain actors’ interviews to try and get the whole picture: the consequences and foundation of this “vintage” trend, from the publishers’ and translators’ perspectives to the librarians’ and readers’ points of view, then appear in a more global and understandable way.
