Georges Simenon et le canon littéraire. L’édition polonaise de La veuve Couderc

The article analyzes the Polish edition of The Widow by Georges Simenon in the context of the reception of this author in Poland and in that of a “new literary canon”. The study also proposes a commentary on the translation of the novel, which also contributes to the legitimization of the Belgian writer.
