English summary: Jean Meckert was a key figure in twentieth-century French literature, bridging populist novels and detective fiction. This biography should help Meckert acquire the recognition his contributions deserve, as shown by the recent creation of a literary award in this name. French description: L'uvre de Jean Meckert (1910-1995) demeure peu connue, sinon qu'elle commence a beneficier d'un programme de reedition. Cette uvre est pourtant une piece essentielle de l'histoire litteraire de la seconde moitie du XXe siecle: elle trace, du roman proletarien au roman policier contemporain, une voie dimportance qui eclaire le devenir discret de lun et quelques aspects majeurs de lautre. Nous avons donc affaire a un auteur qui a mene une double carriere litteraire ou, plus exactement, deux carrieres successives, lune de 1941 a 1954 a la NRF et lautre, de 1950 a 1985, a la Serie noire. Parmi les derniers signes de limportance de Jean Meckert, signalons la creation, en 2005, dun prix litteraire portant son nom, lui qui nen naura recu quun seul durant ses quarante-cinq ans de carriere, remis chaque annee le 1er mai, a Arras, dans le Pas-de-Calais, au cours du Salon du livre dexpression populaire et de critique sociale, dont le jury est compose decrivains comme Didier Daeninckx, Michel Ragon ou Dominique Manotti. La presence dauteurs de romans policiers aux cotes de Michel Ragon, ecrivain et critique litteraire qui a toujours defendu et illustre la litterature ouvriere confirme le lien determinant que luvre de Jean Meckert constitue entre les deux univers.
