The man poses a problem, but the resonance of his work is global. This article examines the case of Le Comte de Monte-Cristo, whose adaptations between the end of the 19th century and the middle of the 20th century contributed to the rise of Hollywood cinema and to the phenomenal success of the actor O'Neill everywhere through the United States, without the question of the writer's race having been asked once.
