Summary

Personnage haut en couleur, au verbe facile et à l'exagération constante, Tartarin de Tarascon est devenu un personnage légendaire. Il incarne la douce parodie du méridional hâbleur tout autant qu'il exprime le talent burlesque d'Alphonse Daudet. Par-delà sa force comique, l'œuvre de Daudet témoigne des forces d'unification et de différenciation au sein d'une France en pleine mutation industrielle, rurale et politique au XIXe siècle.

Tartarin de Tarascon : roman de la perte d'identité ? C'est le bariolage de Tartarin qui fait rire : vrai faux provençal, bourré de contradictions, sa "férocité bonace" ne fait plus peur. Tartarin de Tarascon ne pouvait être lu que par un compatriote de Daudet.

Henri Vilbert a l'accent juste du Midi, ni faussement imitatif, ni résolument régionaliste, celui qu'on entend encore du côté de Beaucaire et de Tarascon.
