Prince Bonifacio (1864) is a bold conte philosophique, which sets
out to mock politics in the scathing fashion of Voltaire and
Jonathan Swift, mimicking the form of folktales, but substituting
pseudoscientific speculation for magic, and adding an element of
satire directed against mad scientists. This collection also
includes three historical stories that flirt with supernatural
themes, and two that are innovative endeavors on the margins of the
roman scientifique. Louis Ulbach (1822-1889) was one the fieriest
Romantics, notorious for his pugnacious diatribes against Emile
Zola published in Le Figaro under the pseudonym of Ferragus.
