“Stendhal me connaît pas” Literary recognitions and transmedia practices in French rap

French rap brings many literary references into its lyrics in order to reconfigure them. The strategy is to seek recognition at the same time as building one's own modes of appropriation of the texts. It combines with other ways of working on the texts in order to give them a poeticity specific to the genre, which can only be considered in relation to other media such as theatre and cinema.
