On January 8 2021, Netflix made available to its subscribers the downloads of the first part of Lupin series. The success is immediate for this French production. A few days are enough for Lupin to integrate the ranking of the ten most viewed series on the channel and totals more than 70 million downloads in twenty-eight days in the world. Lupinmania invaded the media and the sales of the original adventures of the burglar gentleman flew away. Without betraying the spirit of the stories of Maurice Leblanc, the series produced by Gaumont Studios highlights the permanence of the gentleman burglar type in the popular imagination. Unlike the productions that preceded it, Lupin is not a distant adaptation of Maurice Leblanc’s novel. It asserts itself rather in the image of its subtitle «In the shadow of Arsene» as a continuation of the original hero. In this perspective, it will be necessary to evaluate and question the levels of fidelity to Maurice Leblanc’s works as a whole while exploring the notion of adaptation.

Rivalled in the critical domain by terms such as "transmediality" and "intermediality," or approached from the perspectives of remaking and rewriting, which put less emphasis on the notion of medium than on gestures of repetition within the same "universe," adaptation seems to have become a theoretical horizon of the past. As Sarah Cardwell (2018) notes, by embracing numerous forms of remaking, adaptation studies has, paradoxically, come to do without adaptation and instead finds itself diluted within a larger whole that one might call “intertextual studies”. This article aims to show that the theory of adaptation benefits from encounters with what generally nourishes popular culture: seriality. Several examples of contemporary “neo-Victorian” television series as well as a metacritical analysis of the categories of fictional “world” and “universe” will demonstrate that the conceptual imprecisions between adaptation and intertextuality is also an opportunity to develop theoretical approaches to adaptation that are more open and consider the perpetual expansion of contemporary fictional forms.

For nearly a century, the field of “Franco-Albertan literature” meant the works of chiefly one writer. Up until the 1950s, that writer was Georges Bugnet, who originally from France, settled in Alberta soon after the latter became a province of Canada. From 1960 until the end of the century, Francophone Alberta's writer was Marguerite-A. Primeau, who, born in the northern Albertan village of Saint-Paul-des-Métis, settled in Vancouver in 1954. Since the turn of the twenty-first century, Alberta's Francophone community has begun to come into its own, not only demographically, but also institutionally and culturally. This is reflected in the increased number of its literary artists, defined in this article as Francophones either born in Alberta, or who, originally from another part of the Francophone world, live and write in Alberta, or lived and wrote in Alberta. Compared to Franco-Manitoban, Franco-Ontarian or Acadian writers, Franco-Albertan writers are relatively few in number, but in terms of Francophone Alberta's history, things are on the move. The community is at present less worried about survival issues and more concerned with questions related to its recognition. Whom do they seek to be recognized by? How are they going about obtaining that recognition? This article attempts to offer some elements of response to those questions while claiming a particularly important role for literary production.
