| ###« This dissertation deals with Francophone American prose narratives of the 1980s and 1990s. I consider the various ways in wich writers from Québec and the Caribbean use images of the United States as a vehicle for addressing the problems of cultural identity and alterity in the context of Americas. Specifically, I establish that individual and national identities are negotiated in relation to a dominant United States. Part of my discussion explores how Francophone American novelists alternately choose to abrogate or appropriate of myths of the United States as a means of articulating their own "américanité". | ###**Résumé**\\ |

| After an introduction in wich the general problem and historical background are outlined, the firts chapter addresses the role of myths in //Volkswagen Blues//by Jacques Poulin and //Une histoire américaine//by Jacques Godbout. I show how both narratives are structured in such a way as to deconstruct utopian images of the United States and revalorize the history and cultural traditions of Québec. Chapter Two explores a quite different approach to New World mythology in Dany Laferrière's C//ette grenade dans la main d'une jeune nègre, est-elle une arme ou un fruit ?//, demonstrating how the Caribbean protagonist suffers a crisis in self-image when he appropriates utopian ideology and sets out to achieve the american dream. Chapter Three suggests that Monique LaRue's establishment of parallel between computer simulation and cultural imitation in //Copies conformes//allows the author to examine critical questions concerning her own identity and Québec's cultural autonomy in relation to a dominant United States. » | After an introduction in wich the general problem and historical background are outlined, the firts chapter addresses the role of myths in //Volkswagen Blues//by Jacques Poulin and //Une histoire américaine//by Jacques Godbout.
