et autres nouvelles

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Le Drageoir aux épices (1874), œuvre de jeunesse composée de dix-huit poèmes en prose rend hommage aux peintres hollandais et flamands et à la poésie de Villon. On y trouve déjà l'écrivain influencé par Baudelaire et l'esthétique naturaliste avec laquelle il rompra dans À rebours. Les quatre pièces lues ici sont indépendantes, mais La Reine Margot et La Kermesse de Rubens sont à considérer comme un diptyque. Ce recueil inclut aussi Pages retrouvées et Un dilemme.

Autorenporträt

Charles-Marie-Georges Huysmans (1848 - 1907 in Paris) was a French novelist who published his works as Joris-Karl Huysmans. He is most famous for the novel À rebours (1884, published in English as Against the Grain or Against Nature). He supported himself by a 30-year career in the French civil service. Huysmans' work is considered remarkable for its idiosyncratic use of the French language, large vocabulary, descriptions, satirical wit and far-ranging erudition. First considered part of Naturalism, he became associated with the decadent movement with his publication of À rebours. His work expressed his deep pessimism, which had led him to the philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer. In later years, his novels reflected his study of Catholicism, religious conversion and becoming an oblate. He discussed the iconography of Christian architecture at length in La cathédrale (1898), set at Chartres and with its cathedral as the focus of the book.
