Book excerpt: English summary: Man never ceases to wonder why he is unhappy. Although pessimism has always existed, it seems to have flourished in certain periods of our history. The end of the French Revolution and of the Empire marked the return to an Ancien Regime which left little to be hoped for. Romanticism and Schopenhauer fuelled the despair and fed upon it. Byron, Leopardi, Chateaubriand, Poe and Baudelaire sang of the depression which accompanies passions, dejection, boredom and melancholy. The history of progress is that of disenchantment. Modernity was disowned as soon as it dawned. In a world in which God is dying, and man has turned evil, syphilis, urbanisation and industrialisation leave us feeling hopeless. Sustained by the most celebrated writers, pessimism invaded the 19th century from Southern to Northern Europe. It almost comes as a surprise that Freud and psychoanalysis should have emerged so late in a society in which anguish and depression had ruled unchallenged for so long, and more so in Paris than in any other capital. The 20th century would usher in an even more devastating apocalypse than the one anticipated by writers and philosophers. Germany may have had a pessimistic mindset, but France experienced it with passion and still stubbornly cultivates it for specific reasons that the author attempts to elucidate. He examines without compromise or militantism the causes of a phenomenon that shows no signs of abating. French description: L'homme ne cesse de se demander pourquoi il est malheureux. Si le pessimisme est de tout temps, il prospere pourtant a certaines epoques de l'histoire. La fin de la Revolution et de l'Empire marque le retour a l'Ancien Regime qui ne fait pas rever. Le romantisme et Schopenhauer alimentent le desespoir et s'en nourrissent. Byron, Leopardi, Chateaubriand, Poe, Baudelaire chantent le vague des passions, le spleen, l'ennui et la melancolie. L'histoire du progres est celle d'un desamour. La modernite est desavouee des sa naissance. Dans un monde ou Dieu se meurt et ou l'homme est au plus mal, la syphilis, l'urbanisation et l'industrialisation ne laissent guere de raisons d'esperer. Porte par les plus grands ecrivains, le pessimisme envahit le XIXe siecle du sud au nord de l'Europe. On s'etonne presque que Freud et la psychanalyse soient venus si tard dans une societe ou l'angoisse et la depression regnaient en maitres depuis longtemps, et a Paris plus que dans toute autre capitale. Le XXe siecle allait apporter une apocalypse pire que celle promise par les ecrivains et les philosophes. Si l'Allemagne a pense le pessimisme, la France l'a vecu passionnement et le cultive aujourd'hui avec obstination pour des raisons specifiques que l'auteur tente de percevoir. Sans complaisance et sans militantisme, il s'interroge sur les causes d'un phenomene dont rien n'annonce la fin. Jean-Marie PAUL a enseigne l'histoire des idees et la litterature allemande aux universites de Dijon, Nancy et Angers. Dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire, ses livres et les nombreux ouvrages qu'il a diriges tentent de retrouver une image de l'homme telle qu'elle se construit et evolue dans la longue duree tout en affirmant des traits permanents irreductibles a la contingence des temps.

Book Living Well with Pessimism in Nineteenth Century France

Download or read book Living Well with Pessimism in Nineteenth Century France written by Joseph Acquisto and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the emergence of modern pessimism in nineteenth-century France and examines its aesthetic, epistemological, ethical, and political implications. It explores how, since pessimism as a worldview is not empirically verifiable, writers on pessimism shift the discussion to verisimilitude, opening up rich territory for cross-fertilization between philosophy and literature. The book traces debates on pessimism in the nineteenth century among French nonfiction writers who either lauded its promotion of compassion or condemned it for being a sick and unliveable attempt at renunciation. It then examines the way novelists and poets take up and transform these questions by portraying characters in lived situations that serve as testing grounds for the merits or limitations of pessimism. The debate on pessimism that emerged in the nineteenth century is still very much with us, and this book offers an interhistorical argument for embracing pessimism as a way of living well in the world, aesthetically, ethically, and politically.

Book The Family in Crisis in Late Nineteenth Century French Fiction

Download or read book The Family in Crisis in Late Nineteenth Century French Fiction written by Nicholas White and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-01-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Family in Crisis in Late Nineteenth-Century French Fiction, first published in 1999, focuses on a key moment in the construction of the modern view of the family in France. Nicholas White's analysis of novels by Zola, Maupassant, Hennique, Bourget and Armand Charpentier is fashioned by perspectives on a wide cultural field, including legal, popular and academic discourses on the family and its discontents. His account encourages a close rereading of canonical as well as overlooked texts from fin de siècle France. What emerges between the death of Flaubert in 1880 and the publication of Bourget's Un divorce in 1904 is a series of Naturalist and post-Naturalist representations of transgressive behaviour in which tales of adultery, illegitimacy, consanguinity, incest and divorce serve to exemplify and to offer a range of nuances on the Third Republic's crisis in what might now be termed 'family values'.

Book The Masters of Modern French Criticism

Download or read book The Masters of Modern French Criticism written by Irving Babbitt and published by . This book was released on 1912 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume does not criticize criticism, but criticizes critics. The critics examined are among the most vital and significant personalities of their time. To study Sainte-Beuve and the other leading French critics is to get very close to the intellectual center of the century. Readers my thus follow the main movement of this thought through this period, and build up the necessary background for understanding the ideas of the present day, whether they continue this earlier thought or react from it. The so-called anti-intellectualist movement can only be understood with reference to such a background; it is a reaction from the dogmatic naturalism that reached its height in the second half of the nineteenth century. In the end, the judgment of the keen-sighted few in the present will be ratified by the verdict of posterity.

Book Liszt s Final Decade

Download or read book Liszt s Final Decade written by Dolores Pesce and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2014 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liszt's Final Decade reveals in the composer's own words to his confidantes Carolyne von Sayn-Wittgenstein and Olga von Meyendorff how he resolved his conflicted self-image as a celebrated performer but underappreciated composer. Toward the end of his life Franz Liszt maintained extensive correspondence with two women who were at the time his closest confidantes, Carolyne von Sayn-Wittgenstein and Olga von Meyendorff. Liszt wrote to them regularly, expressing his intimate feelings about personal and career events and his conflicted self-image as a celebrated performer but underappreciated composer. Absent a diary, the letters offer the most direct avenue into Liszt's psyche in hisfinal years. Liszt's Final Decade explores through these letters the mind and music of one of the nineteenth century's most popular musicians, providing insight into Liszt's melancholia in his last years and his struggle to gain recognition for his music yet avoid criticism. The exchange indicates that Liszt ultimately resolved his inner conflict through a personally constructed Christian moral philosophy that embraced positive resignation to suffering, compassionate love, and trust in a just reward to come. The book also examines how Liszt's late sacred compositions affirm the yielding of suffering to joy and hope. Significantly, Liszt viewed these works, commonly overlooked today, as a major part of his compositional legacy. This volume thus challenges the idea of a single "late" Lisztian style and the notion that despair overwhelmed the composer in his final years. We are pleased to announce that Liszt's Final Decade is the winner of the 2017 Alan Walker Book Award, given by the American Liszt Society. Dolores Pesce is the Avis Blewett Professor of Music in Arts and Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis.
