Book excerpt: George Sand, some aspects of her life and writings by Rene Doumic In the whole of French literary history, there is, perhaps, no subject of such inexhaustible and modern interest as that of George Sand. Of what use is literary history? It is not only a kind of museum, in which a few masterpieces are preserved for the pleasure of beholders. It is this certainly, but it is still more than this. Fine books are, before anything else, living works. They not only have lived, but they continue to live. They live within us, underneath those ideas which form our conscience and those sentiments which inspire our actions. There is nothing of greater importance for any society than to make an inventory of the ideas and the sentiments which are composing its moral atmosphere every instant that it exists. For every individual this work is the very condition of his dignity. The question is, should we have these ideas and these sentiments, if, in the times before us, there had not been some exceptional individuals who seized them, as it were, in the air and made them viable and durable? These exceptional individuals were capable of thinking more vigorously, of feeling more deeply, and of expressing themselves more forcibly than we are. They bequeathed these ideas and sentiments to us. Literary history is, then, above and beyond all things, the perpetual examination of the conscience of humanity. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prolific and iconoclastic author of novels, stories, plays, essays, and memoirs, she represented the epitome of French romantic idealism. She demanded for women the freedom in living that was a matter of course to the men of her day. Subsequent novels, such as Valentine , astounded readers with their frank exploration of women's sexual feelings and their passionate call for women's freedom to find emotional satisfaction. In the eyes of many critics, George's masterpiece is her autobiography. Though she was a brilliant writer, she was perhaps most famous for her personality and lifestyle. I am amazed at how radical a person she was - not only for that time, but for modern times as well. But perhaps most interesting is simply her look, the way she behaved herself (or rather, didn't), and how she acted around even the most distinguished aristocracy. George, of course, was not her birth name. She changed her name to George Sand when she became a writer. So Aurore, who happened to be married to a baron, left him (obviously a scandal in those times), took their two kids, moved out on her own, changed her name to George... and the rest is history. George had open and notorious relationships with famous men (artists, writers, musicians) she knew in Paris, including Jules Sandeau, Alfred de Musset, Frederic Chopin, and others. She was friends with the best of them: Eugene Delacroix, Franz Liszt... and of course, most famously, with Chopin. She and Chopin had a complicated relationship, going from friends, to lovers (briefly), to eventually being more like mother and son. Their relationship was one of the most intriguing and unlikely in history. Chopin was aristocratic, well-behaved, finicky, proper, a bit stuffy even (gasp!!). And George was... well, read on. As for her personality, I think I gave a good idea of George above. Loud, lewd, shocking, and scandalous. You may notice I use the word scandalous a lot on this page. That's not because I don't feel like using the thesaurus, but because her life simply was scandalous in most aspects. I may be sensationalizing this a bit; I admit I have her biography but have not yet tackled the whole thing (it's about 900 pages)... but what I do know about George is that she was not your typical Parisian lady of the 1800s. Her behavior and personality aside, and also aside from her boldly leaving her husband and becoming a writer, well, you have the way she dressed. To protest the unequal treatment accorded to women, George usually wore men's suits: shirt, pants, jacket, tie, top hat... the whole deal. So you can see why people of her time had a bit of a problem with her. Probably the only reason she got away with it was because she was such a famous writer. Otherwise she surely would have been locked away and condemned by society. But instead she became a bit of an icon, the envy of so many proper ladies who wore their corsets and frilly dresses. Not only did George wear men's clothes, she also smoked cigars and had a rowdy sense of humor (much like Frida Kahlo). So for these reasons I consider George to be an amazing woman. This page is not so much about biographical details or incidents in her life, nor is it devoted to her enormous body of work. George was such a complicated, prolific, and fascinating woman, there are huge volumes devoted to those kinds of details. But instead, here I have briefly described why I believe George to be an amazing woman. It is not for her work or her accomplishments, but simply for being herself (and what a person to be!). A rebellious, cross-dressing, cigar-smoking, scandalously-acting woman writer who lived at a time that was certainly much more of a man's world than today, who was not afraid to be herself; the icon that she was, the freedom that she represented, the boundaries that she completely ignored, the propriety she didn't care about, the lives she changed... George Sand is an amazing woman for being the woman she was.
