Book Reading Realism in Stendhal

Download or read book Reading Realism in Stendhal written by Ann Jefferson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1988-03-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book poses the question: what happens when reading enters the realist process? and answers it by way of a critical study of Stendhal's writing. Ann Jefferson argues that a recognition of the role of reading in representation is particularly crucial to an understanding of Stendhal's realism, and her account includes substantial discussions of De l'Amour, Le Rouge et le Noir, the Vie de Henry Brulard and La Chartreuse de Parme. Her study also draws a number of illuminating parallels between Stendhal and aspects of modern critical theory, and uses them in order to reveal the high degree of sophistication and self-consciousness in Stendhal's writing, qualities which are attributed here to the intensity of his preoccupation with his readers. By focusing on the issue of reading in Stendhal this book not only proposes a reassessment of Stendhal's own work, but also opens up lines of enquiry on the critical problem that is realism.

Book The Abbess of Castro

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stendhal
  • Publisher : Lindhardt og Ringhof
  • Release : 2021-12-03
  • ISBN : 8726667983
  • Pages : 121 pages

Download or read book The Abbess of Castro written by Stendhal and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2021-12-03 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Abbess of Castro' is a novella by Stendhal which recounts the untimely tragic romance between the daughter of the wealthiest man in Lazio and a penniless gangster. It may be a tale of star-crossed lovers set in Italy, but this novella is so much more than an alternative Romeo and Juliet. Beneath the surface lies an eye-opening tale of political machinations that Machiavelli would be proud of, violent family feuds and swashbuckling adventures. Claimed to be translated from 16th Century manuscripts, 'The Abbess of Castro' packs an extra punch with its extremely unsympathetic view on warfare and an acute critique on ardent individuals undone by passion. Stendhal is widely regarded to be an eminent example of Romantic Realism throughout his work and directly influenced the world-famous Russian author Leo Tolstoy in his depictions of war, especially in Tolstoy's works 'Sevastopol Sketchers', 'The Invaders', 'The Cossacks' and 'Youth and Childhood'. Stendhal (1783-1842), the pseudonym of Marie-Henry Beyle, was a French writer. A pioneer of literary realism and master of the psychological portrayals of his characters, he is best known for his novels 'The Red and the Black' (1830) and 'The Charterhouse of Parma' (1839).

Book Stendhal

    Book Details:
  • Author : Victor Brombert
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2017-10-09
  • ISBN : 022651935X
  • Pages : 224 pages

Download or read book Stendhal written by Victor Brombert and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-10-09 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victor Brombert is a lion in the study of French literature, and in this classic of literary criticism, he turns his clear and perspicacious gaze on the works of one of its greatest authors—Stendhal. Best remembered for his novels The Red and the Black and The Charterhouse of Parma, Stendhal is a writer of extraordinary insight into psychology and the many shades of individual and political liberty. Brombert has spent a lifetime reading and teaching Stendhal and here, by focusing on the seemingly contradictory themes of inner freedom and outer constraint within Stendhal’s writings, he offers a revealing analysis of both his work and his life. For Brombert, Stendhal’s work is deeply personal; elsewhere, he has written about the myriad connections between Stendhal’s ironic inquiries into identity and his own boyhood in France on the brink of World War II. Proceeding via careful and nuanced readings of passages from Stendhal’s fiction and autobiography, Brombert pays particular attention to style, tone, and meaning. Paradoxically, Stendhal’s heroes often feel most free when in prison, and in a statement of stunning relevance for our contemporary world, Brombert contends that Stendhal is far clearer than any writer before him on the “crisis and contradictions of modern humanism that . . . render political freedom illusory.” Featuring a new introduction in which Brombert explores his earliest encounters with Stendhal—the beginnings of his “affair” during a year spent as a Fulbright scholar in Rome—Stendhal remains a spirited, elegant, and resonant account.

Book The Black Books  Slipcased Edition   Vol  Seven Volume Set

Download or read book The Black Books Slipcased Edition Vol Seven Volume Set written by C. G. Jung and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 1648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now, the single most important unpublished work by C.G. Jung—The Black Books. In 1913, C.G. Jung started a unique self- experiment that he called his “confrontation with the unconscious”: an engagement with his fantasies in a waking state, which he charted in a series of notebooks referred to as The Black Books. These intimate writings shed light on the further elaboration of Jung’s personal cosmology and his attempts to embody insights from his self- investigation into his life and personal relationships. The Red Book drew on material recorded from 1913 to 1916, but Jung actively kept the notebooks for many more decades. Presented in a magnificent, seven-volume boxed collection featuring a revelatory essay by noted Jung scholar Sonu Shamdasani—illuminated by a selection of Jung’s vibrant visual works—and both translated and facsimile versions of each notebook, The Black Books offer a unique portal into Jung’s mind and the origins of analytical psychology.

Book Le rouge et le noir

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stendhal
  • Publisher : Gallimard Editions
  • Release : 2000
  • ISBN : 9782070412396
  • Pages : 825 pages

Download or read book Le rouge et le noir written by Stendhal and published by Gallimard Editions. This book was released on 2000 with total page 825 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Après trente ans de travail acharné, Stendhal est digne d'improviser ; il sait peindre d'un premier trait, d'un seul trait. Il a lentement créé cet instrument de prose rapide, qui est lui-même : son style le plus parfait est devenu sa voix naturelle. L'originalité n'est plus un but qu'il se propose : elle est en lui... La revanche imaginaire, ce rêve de compensation qui succède à la douleur de l'échec et en marque la convalescence, est un des excitants les plus forts de l'imagination créatrice. C'est sous cet aspect de revanche imaginaire qu'il faut voir la transposition de Stendhal en Julien, la beauté de Julien, sa minceur. Les souvenirs directs gardent leur accent secret et déchirant parce qu'ils sont placés parmi les enthousiasmes de la revanche imaginaire.
