This valuable compilation of articles offers original, historical,
biographical and literary perspectives on the works of Stendhal.
Eleven essays plunge the reader into Stendhal's mythological
universe, providing new insights into the network of symbols,
images and obsessional themes that run through his works. This
multi-faceted collection examines Stendhal as the problematic
subject for a biography, as autobiographer in his own right, as
journalist, novelist, and innovator in the realm of fictional
devices, and as the great representative of that literature of
ideas first acclaimed by Balzac. Topics addressed include the
writer's own enigmatic persona, his autobiographical writings, his
encounter with George Sand, and his journalistic career in Italy,
as well as the structure imposed on his novels by an Oedipal
conflict he himself perceives in pre-Freudian terms, his
experiments with multiple narrative point of view, and a feminist
perspective on his use of the epistolary form as a device to
enhance the plot.
