Описание: Marie-Henri Beyle (1783-1842), better known by his pen name Stendhal, is best known for his novel Le Rouge et le Noir. Reissued here is the 1824 English translation of his brilliant though somewhat unreliable Vie de Rossini of the same year. Colourful, vigorous and forthright, this is an opinionated contemporary critique of the composer.

Описание: The son of a carpenter, Julian Sorel is inspired by the writings of Napoleon to conquer the heights of society. His initial plan to work his way up through the church is, however, thwarted when he is forced to accept employment as a tutor--and this rash social entrepreneur certainly has not
considered the dangers of falling in love. Stendhal's novel is an amusing and piquant study of hypocrisy and free will in post-Napoleonic France.

Описание:

Renate Stendhal sweeps out the old myths about bed death, the notion that lesbian couples tend to be too close to maintain sexual desire. Her own story and her talks with counseling clients prove the contrary. Stendhal shows that sex is the natural and continuous outcome of a closeness generated by bold honesty and the capacity to speak and hear intimate secrets. Sharing "shameful" desires and vulnerable fears is what love and sexual passion are made of.

Stendhal teaches simple, effective and thought-provoking lessons for any committed or married couple who wants to keep passion alive beyond the honeymoon phase. Her message: The art of intimate truth-telling is the most effective aphrodisiac of all.

Описание: The Charterhouse of Parma (1839) is a compelling novel of passion and daring. Set at the beginning of the 19th-century in northern Italy, it traces the joyous but ill-starred amorous exploits of a handsome young aristocrat called Fabrice del Dongo. The novel's great achievement is to conjure
up the excitement and romance of youth while never losing sight of the harsh realities which beset the pursuit of happiness. This new translation captures Stendhal's narrative verse, while the Introduction explores the novel's reception and the reasons for its enduring popularity and power.

Описание: The Red and the Black, Stendhal's masterpiece, is the story of Julien Sorel, a young dreamer from the provinces, fueled by Napoleonic ideals, whose desire to make his fortune sets in motion events both mesmerizing and tragic. Sorel's quest to find himself, and the doomed love he encounters along the way, are delineated with an unprecedented psychological depth and realism. At the same time, Stendhal weaves together the social life and fraught political intrigues of post-Napoleonic France, bringing that world to unforgettable, full-color life. His portrait of Julien and early-nineteenth-century France remains an unsurpassed creation, one that brilliantly anticipates modern literature.

Описание: The Red and the Black is a historical psychological novel by Stendhal, published in 1830. It chronicles the attempts of a provincial young man to rise socially beyond his modest upbringing through a combination of talent, hard work, deception, and hypocrisy-who ultimately allows his passions to betray him. The novel's full title, Le Rouge et le Noir: Chronique du XIXe si cle (The Red and the Black: A Chronicle of the 19th Century), indicates its two-fold literary purpose as both a psychological portrait of the romantic protagonist, Julien Sorel, and an analytic, sociological satire of the French social order under the Bourbon Restoration (1814-30). In English, Le Rouge et le Noir is variously translated as Red and Black, Scarlet and Black, and The Red and the Black, without the sub-title. The title refers to the tension between the clerical and secular interests of the protagonist, which is a matter of some debate. First published in 1830, "The Red and the Black," is widely considered the masterpiece of 19th century French author Marie-Henri Beyle, known more commonly by his pen name, Stendahl. It follows the ambitions of Julien Sorel, a young man raised in the French countryside who wishes to rise above his provincial station by climbing the social ranks of Parisian society. Through a series of events, Julien's talent and hard work give way to deception and hypocrisy when he realizes the limitations for advancement of a sincere and honest man of humble origins. Although Julien achieves much which he aspires to, ultimately his pride gets the better of him when he commits a violent crime of passion, leading to his tragic downfall. Through the deep psychological introspection of Julien we see Stendhal's unique literary genius, the remarkable way in which he allows readers to live in the minds of his characters. Set against the backdrop of the July Revolution of 1830, "The Red and the Black" is a narrative which embodies the rich social conflict of that time.

Описание: Féder, devenu veuf après un court mariage d'amour, s'installe à Paris, prêt à tout pour conquérir le monde et faire fortune. Séduite par sa mélancolie et son ambition, la belle Rosalinde, célèbre danseuse, devient sa maîtresse et le lance comme peintre à la mode. Le succès ne tarde guère. Un jour, un riche provincial demande à Féder de faire le portrait de Valentine, sa jeune épouse... Grand peintre de l'âme humaine et des passions qui l'animent, Stendhal, dans ce court roman, n'est pas sans rappeler les plus belles pages de son chef-d'œuvre Le Rouge et le Noir.

Описание: «Autrefois, lui disait Julien, quand j'aurais pu être si heureux pendant nos promenades dans les bois de Vergy, une ambition fougueuse entraînait mon âme dans les pays imaginaires.Au lieu de serrer contre mon cœur ce bras charmant qui était si près de mes lèvres, l'avenir m'enlevait à toi (?) non, je serais mort sans connaître le bonheur, si vous n'étiez venue me voir dans cette prison».
